Huh? I'm talking about 2000-2022. Do you even know anything about Ukraine and what has being on there? Shouldn't you be shit-posting on Twitter/X? Is that all you do is shit-post?

Does the West (EU/UK/USA) take any responsibility for creating conditions that made this war in Ukraine possible? Its ALL Russia's fault?

Where I live, I see massive amounts of homeless people that i did not see before COVID; despite the skyrocketing prices of real-estate before COVID. The high cost of housing was already a problem before these Wizards decided to flood the co

I was arguing that bringing in massive amounts of people in such a short time that the other levels of government have no time to plan to deal with the logistics of it. --to be clear, my anger is at the politicians not the immigrants. And

But that's what i mean by this new category, its so they (EU brass) can circumvent the approval process. That's what I suspect.

I have a feeling that this "made up name/category" will be a pretext for fast-tracking whatever they want to do with Canada-EU relations without the other members voting on it since the last one they tried to do is 10 years o

You will recall the propaganda steering suspicion towards the Russians on the Nordstream pipeline. Who has the most to gain by blaming the Russians?

or make it look like it was the Russians so you can get the public on board with a war against Russia?

Housing is a municipal jurisdiction, healthcare is a provincial jurisdiction and immigration (direct, temporary, students, refugees) is a federal jurisdiction (except Quebec has its own immigration jurisdiction). Bringing in millions of peo

That, and Quebec farmers and food security. Federal Politicians need rural votes to win elections and keep Quebec from separating. Also food security is important to any nation. And in light of what tRump has done it looks like and even mor

AI is centralization of compute. And the new fortress USA makes that even worse. Until we get local AI, which Anthropic and OpenAI are trying their hardest to skuttle, we are in big trouble.

Dont be fooled. The Repugnant Party doesn't give a damn for the worker either. Its all just talk to get you to vote for them. The Dumbocrats try to sell their story by claiming they support DEI to sucker those who lean that way into vo

He's up for re-election in Nov 2026. After he wins, you can bet he will be all-in on Datacenters again and touting how wonderful for everyone they will be.

Two Thumbs up! It's time more people fully understood the meaning of "I don't care what color the Cat is, as long as it catches the Mouse".

When? I'm sure they already are. Can you imagine how much health insurance companies would luv to get their hands on such data? How much they would be willing to pay?

It isn't just Musk, there are plenty of reputable journalists and scholars who argue the same point. Noam Chomsky for starters.

Highly useful if you are building a Digital Control Grid.

by tharmas 2mo ago
Yeah, I wish journalists would just look up the EM-ployment rate and go from there. The official "unemployment" rate is based on who is collecting benefits. It doesn't count those unemployed but not collecting benefits.

Well, actually they have a new model. I call it the "Apple" model. Low volume sales on high value items where you can charge more. Even NVidia has moved to this model: make your money from selling high-end GPUs for Data Centers an

Fair. And I agree with nearly everything in your comment. One thing about tRump, is that he is more blatantly obvious about the "bully" side of America. He is not the first bully; just the first un-subtle American bully. What I fi

This wasn't sarcasm. Gov't contracts are where a lot of people make a lot of money. And Palantir and ICE are definitely a thing. I know that sounds purely political but these are real things. ICE depends on Palantir a lot. And Pal
