"I tend to argue instead for actual socialism over UBI. Socialized health care, public education, infrastructure, etc." That's not socialism, at all. That's social democracy. As someone who comes from a country that has

"The US and europe attacking venezuela..." Speaking as a Venezuelan, what the bloody hell are you talking about? "...and blaming their failures on state socialism..." Venezuela's failures are the failure of state

I'm talking about you. You said the fund should pay taxes to the US because it "indirectly benefits from the US social structure". By that logic, you should be paying taxes to all the countries whose "social structure&qu

>Why should a hedge fund that takes advantage of the US social structure (funded by taxes) be allowed to not pay taxes in the US? You seem to have a very US-centered view of the world. To those of us who don't live in the US, it com

"It's benefiting from the US structure indirectly. Investors into the fund are definitely benefiting from the US social structure and hence the fund is also benefiting." So, have you been paying your taxes to Germany, Canada,

Non-local hidden variables have not been ruled out, as evinced by the de Broglie–Bohm theory.

I'm not talking about that other point. I'm talking about the fact that you baselessly accused me of supporting white supremacy.

by cgmg 9y ago
You're sorry that you accused me of supporting white supremacy because I disagreed with a point you made?
252.
by cgmg 9y ago
You literally accused me of supporting white supremacy because I disagreed with a point you made. That shouldn't be taken lightly. At the very least you should take responsibility for your own behavior and apologize.

"So you agree with white supremacy..." You've got to be kidding me. Point out exactly where in my comment I agreed with white supremacy. I disagreed with literally one point in your comment and that means I suport white supre

"Not even remotely the same thing. Not even in the same galaxy. Not even in the same universe." What do you mean? They're both totalitarian ideologies and have much in common.

I don't think you know what a pyramid scheme is. How about learning the definition of the words you use before throwing them around?

Your understanding is incorrect. You don't even understand how mining difficulty works.

Why is that funny to you? What do you mean by "legitimate"?

When you say "this" will all come crashing down and "this" is not sustainable, what exactly are you referring to?

"Communist" implies authoritarian, as in a one-party state.

You raise a good point. Perhaps digital signatures will become more common because of this.
