They stopped publishing how many units of each model of iPhone they sell, that's a major investor red flag.

We invaded Afghanistan only a few months after the Taliban made opium illegal to produce (due to some religious reasoning)...very suspicious when you look at our history of peddling opioids as a nation.

I didn't see the story mention whether there is a signal triggering movements or these things are preprogrammed for certain movements.

He's a model CEO, speaks 5-6 languages fluently and very successfully ran two major car companies at the same time. How do you not write a story about him?

We are finding more and more proof the Chinese were trading with remote parts of Africa many centuries pre-rennaissance. Wouldn't be surprised if they got as far as North/South America. The last voyage before they turned inward wa

>...the vast majority of white wealth is not in the hands of the middle-upper class You are correct on that point. More than 50% of the 100$ trillion is held by the top 10%. On the other point, my point is the first $500k to 1million of

It's not a hypothesis. It's hard to track money flows but not as hard as the anti-reparations crowd make it seem. The majority of the $500k-1m baseline in white middle-upper class wealth is in homes and land handed down as inherit

I'm sure an algorithm looking at the current state of the world would surmise Europeans are geniuses when compared to the rest of the world population. Totally ignoring the $150+ trillion of wealth stolen at gunpoint over the last 2+ c

The USA has spent 4+ centuries kicking certain communities down the Maslow Heirarchy, this was done on purpose through laws introducing redlining, Jim Crow, no access to the GI Bill, slavery etc...I'd like a world where we could judge

Police stopped patrolling in New York and focused on only serious crime recently....Crime dropped. Not a complete end of enforcement but it shows broken window policing might be stupidity on steroids.

Absolutely and if their insurance doesn't cover the damage they've done, the liability should overflow into their pensions.

What a branding disaster, tack on the name of reliable series of crafts to a flying suicide machine and destroy the whole line. I'm sure many customers will avoid 737s in general due to confusion.
