This is one example of thousands. Another commenter (seems to have deleted their comment) said it was about .001% of the federal budget. That is just insane.

We've got a whole summer of court precedence which says that protesters can block roads with zero consequences. I think that ship has sailed.

That's my money. Not a company's. To anyone who disagrees, how is this statement wrong?

What was that bit again? "The whole point of protesting is to make ppl uncomfortable. Activists take that discomfort w/ the status quo & advocate for concrete policy changes. Popular support often starts small & grows. To

What other point did you have? I don't seem to get it from your parent comment... unless you posted somewhere else or have two accounts? How can this be considered whataboutism when it's the exact same thing in different clothing?

Yeah, I don't think it's too much of a mystery. It's almost certain that Wall Street "suggested" that someone at the exchange make this happen. Whether it was a direct $$$ bribe or a call-in to the good old boys, we

Is that somehow different from how Real Socialists brutalized, arrested, and exiled people they didn't like? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gulag_Archipelago

Then why did you reply to me? Sorry, I'm just very confused... you asked how this was related to the issue at hand. It's related because this is an empty statement put out for PR purposes, and I believe is purposefully misleading

walled garden: Apple is already known as a walled garden, and that has nothing to do with this virtue signaling around "stopping violence" revenue stream: I'm referring to FB's revenue stream here. Apple could have a pol

Try iPhone SE, it's the cheapest one with a good processor, and will probably be supported for several more years, I'm still using the iPhone SE first gen from 2016.

Apple could take measures against FB. How about deplatforming them? How about NOT allowing them to include trackers in Safari or apps, bankrupting their revenue stream? Genocide for dollars, the way it's always worked. Apple is being d

Apple has total control over the largest computing platform in the United States. Timmy could fix this in many ways if he really cared.

Just remember this when you see who gets promoted, and be sure to adjust your strategy accordingly ;) Unfortunately most software companies (like all companies) are based on management ego and rah rah rah. This is an infamous problem which

Maybe you should improve your home life... that's really sad, man. You deserve better. If you hate your family so much why don't you move in with roommates? I don't talk to my family either.

If Mozilla cares so much about privacy, why don't they enable an ad blocker by default? Why don't they get rid of Pocket? Why don't they remove tracking from their own new tab page? Mozilla is dead to me from a privacy perspe

I believe there's a reason the old people are more rich, and it's caused by these very policies. When boomers were 30, they were many times richer than millennials.

Pretty sure this was a satirical post you guys, of course the youth are more important than the old. They're the only ones who can reproduce and ensure we have a strong civilization for thousands of years to come.

This is partially caused by the thinking in the article. The modern selfish senior would rather live 5 more years in a nursing home with a bad quality of life than give their inheritance to their children. The inheritance is instead given t

Who's "we"? Anyone who's read Plato's Republic knows the dangers of democracy, or is lying to themselves.

This is right, there's now a certain % of people that just can't be trusted in the US, it's easier to trust no one.

Yeah, that was a hypothetical question, but thanks... there's no going back it seems :D I'm sure they still have this environment in some countries where no one wants to visit.

Seeing 1950's America is heartbreaking for me. I grew up in the 90s, and I never saw a trusted society. https://www.radiogunk.com/forums/index.php?threads/1950s-ame... Where's the broken glass? The needl
