Well, my first reaction to your critique of the "Three body problem" was to argue because I liked it, but on the second thought I've decided to ask you for the reading recomendations :) I guess I'm looking for sci-fi inv

I was thinking about people moving to the US and working there at an Amazon warehouse. If we talk about working for that rate in their native country, I think it can be up to 5 billion. And a billion more will take the job without being too

No, but I am not suffering from hunger, lack of clean drinking water, lack of basic medical help or violence. If that were the case, I would be happy to do anything, including relocating to the US and working as an Amazon's robot.

"And for $13.75 an hour, it definitely isn't worth it." A billion of people around the world would be happy to work with that hourly rate.

"it can be insulting" Insulting, really? Somebody cares to try to explain you something and the word you can find is "insulting"? It's like everyone owes it to you to chew knowledge in small enough bits that you can

Can you give an example of such use of force which is not a war? Besides Russian help to Ukrainian rebels. Turkish, American, Israel's and Arab actions in Syria come to mind, but what else?

EU is not a country. "it displays inertia of two big and complex systems" Yeah, right, I can imagine the US trading with Japan during the whole war. Oh, wait, no, actually, I cannot. "You got them" That is a lie. Even th

Are you aware that in the 2018 Russia is still the main trade partner of the Ukraine despite all russophobic noises coming from Kiev? It clearly contradicts your statement that Russia and the Ukraine are at war. I quoted the sentence that n

You could have as well given a link to google.com. You have made several specific russophobic claims and I challenge you to substatiate them and not leave that as 'an exercise for the reader'.
