During Trump’s first administration, the total number of undocumented immigrants living in the U.S. continued to rise. I wonder what he needed all those illegal immigrants for…

Yeah they do now make it the primary investment strategy (which will self accelerate if it grows faster than S&P500). Now imagine the results.

Can’t wait for the stock market to crash beyond recovery and people shifting to buying up land and real estate, making living expenses skyrocket (again). Mass homelessness, the 10th republican president in a row mobilizing the army, purging

I’m surprised that the creator of Homebrew didn’t know how to do that.

Yeah and they have like 50 coding agents, because everyone in the entire company turned to doing the same thing. There's not that much you can invent in this space.

I'm always surprised by this attitude - just because one person doesn't want children, doesn't mean that the world population isn't at its peak and growing. Extinction of the species while the species has 8.2 billion spe

Without major breakthroughs, a Mars colony isn’t going to happen, period. And these breakthroughs are by no means guaranteed. Remember, we still don’t have flying skateboards, despite all the technological progress since Back to the Future

What you’re saying is that population increase raises the rent, whether the new people are immigrants is not relevant. But wealth accumulation means that on the auction for housing you are competing with someone who has 1000x more resources

What I’d like to do doesn’t pay money. What I do is the most buck for the effort that I have to put in. I know I’d be extremely happy doing what I want to do. Unpacking that might be uncomfortable for the unpacker, because you’ll realize th

It seems like you’re desperately reaching. Yes but not the politicians but the police. Yes but not hate speech but criticism of policy. Yes but not criticism of policy but the middle finger. Yes but not to jail but a fine. Yes but… Meanwhil

The wolf are the nefarious powers trying to read your DMs. When they really come, people won’t bother reading the news.

People should learn about crying wolf, but they never do.

It’s an old strategy that tries to take agency from people by splitting them up. If you convince many powerless people to work alone, they aren’t gonna be a threat.

The society decides. We know that speech can have disastrous consequences. We have laws that have been carefully written and refined to counteract that. Simplified: Hate speech = attacking or demeaning a group for who they are (e.g. race, r

In Western Europe there are no records of government backed trolls. You present it as a possibility when it isn’t one as long as we can avoid autocracy which the existing trolls are working towards.

He wasn’t fined for criticizing policy. I’ll say this as many times as needed, no matter how many words you type in. Germany doesn’t punish dissent. (Unlike the current US regime BTW)

Stefan Niehoff was fined 825 Euro for using banned Nazi symbols. How am I supposed to treat what you’re writing seriously? After how you tried to spin it? :|

There’s nothing in your article about the rape so I’d have to trust you on that, but I can’t given how liberally you mix your own beliefs with sourced information.

As defined by the social contract :) Seems to me like you’re quibbling, because you can’t defend your claim by showing a single example.

The logic is simple - making it harder for them to operate will diminish their impact and effectiveness.

You can’t give even one example and instead you’re posting another wall of text. It’s pretty clear what’s going on here. You can’t defend your position. Germany doesn’t punish criticism of policy.

Show me the story, and it it’s as portrayed (someone went to jail for flipping a politician off), I’ll change my mind. Until then, it’s made up. Not to mention that it’s irrelevant to the the original point about hate speech and migration b

One example of someone going to jail for criticizing policy and no more walls of text, and naive understanding of oppressive regimes please.

Then skip all the articles talking about your First Amendment as if it’s somehow relevant :D It’s hilarious how far you have to reach to get any criticism where I simply asked you for one, one single case of someone going to jail for critic

I think US republicans are going into panic mode because a lot of the people who get punished for this are right wing adjacent, not very bright people, and they misinterpret this as their equivalents in Europe somehow getting suppressed. So
