I'm curious why you feel so confident about that. From what I can tell, it's regarded as real by the FBI, American Psychiatric Association, etc. I also don't see why it wouldn't be testable... do you not see interviewing

Doesn't the idea that one can debunk a theory at its point of origin contradict your earlier statements about how science works? You could perhaps argue that it has neither be proven nor disproven, due to lack of data and experimentati

I know that they're closing down their Brazil operations, that's literally the title of the article. The speculation I was referring to was your claim that they're really closing down because of financial considerations rathe

Perhaps but that's just speculation and not supported by evidence.

Erdogan is practically a socialist, government spending and inflation have ballooned under him. Pretty much the opposite of what Elon Musk advocates for.

The title of the article is a bit misleading. Manufacturers are going broke because there's too many of them, which is arguably a nice problem to have.

Your comment specifically called out their search product. If your argument is that they have a monopoly on ads, I don't believe that's true either.

It doesn't require a conspiracy to be the case, simply a bit of "safety" lobbying by domestic manufacturers. Lobbying for regulations that favor and protect market incumbents happens all the time. I'd go as far to say th
