People forget Marx wrote a good critique of Capitalism. In the 19th Century working/living conditions for workers was bleak. Just because his offered solution wasn't great doesn't mean his critique was wrong.

Agreed. There are two UKs: London and the rest, like u said. Just like USA. There's Silicon Valley and NYC plus some other enclaves and there's the "flyover". UK has become like USA with yawning gaps between the have and

Re: no trade deals post Brexit. That was always going to be the case. Brexit fantasists thought they were going to recreate the empire with UK at its center. They also thought they could do a deal with USA. What does UK offer USA if they&#x

https://youtu.be/4KtotxNAwME This video might be helpful. Leptos uses Signals, borrowing ideas from SolidJS to update the DOM. There's no VirtualDOM like React. Svelte also doesn't use a VDOM. When there's a

Neoliberal ideology is deeply entrenched in the Angloshere. UK even more so. Kier Starmer thinks Corbyn lost because he was a Socialist. It was about Brexit. "Get Brexit Done" was a master class in political expediency. Even Boris

Build more yes. But you have to prevent "investors" from buying it all up. City of Vancouver built loads of houses but "investors" bought them all up. Vancouver is ranked the third most expensive city in the world for ho

Agreed. There are many ways for the rich to get richer. Housing shouldn't be one of them. If we've got money for Ukraine, we've got money for housing. But then there's ideology and beliefs. There lies the problem.

Exactly this. Twitter is not all bad. This advice I concur is one of the useful utilities of Twitter.

Yes! Like the leaker of Panama Papers. Why on earth did Snowden reveal himself? Did he think he'd be like Daniel Ellsberg? Surely he'd seen what happened to Assange and Manning?

It's only left in the sense of left of the New York Post or the Republican Party. In short, NYT is only "left of" hard right wing.

Left on Identity politics, right on economics. In USA it's all neoliberalism. There is really no Left.

Exactly, burning fossil fuels causes air pollution hence health problems. This is a problem to be addressed/solved regardless of the causes of climate change.

Isn't the real issue with Carbon Emissions that they ACCELERATE climate change such that the planet is not able to adjust to the changes. The earth has undergone many climate changes before however these take place over tens of thousan

Also, Scientists failed to emphasise the biggest threat of Carbon Emissions: climate change ACCELERATION!!! The Earth's climate has changed before. What's different this time is how FAST! No time for the earth to adjust.

Another problem is 40% of Federal MPs are landlords. The Federal Minister for Housing is a landlord. And the self-interest of present homeowners. It's now the landholders vs the landless. Hmmm...that's like a Feudal society.

If I was the one wanting a yes or no answer I would want explicit clarification on what the thumbs up meant.

There's no people in those places in Canada because there's no jobs. And the climate is harsh. Canada is not as big as u think it is.

There's no one to vote for. All the parties favour lots and lots of immigration.

Bring cash, lots of it. Your going to need it for rent. Oh and a really warm coat. Winter's last 6 months and it gets very very cold.

Don't get forget a lot of MPs are landlords. And not just Tory MPs.

Absolute BULLSHIT! Greed is what screws up the market. Ask Alan Greenspan re 2008 Banking Crisis.

If you're a Rust programmer Leptos looks pretty intriguing. It uses Signals like SolidJS.

If Canada WANTED to become a vassal state of China what do you think the Americans would do?

by theironhammer 3y ago
Fair enough. But the point is geopolitics, not what is right. The USA would not tolerate China in their "sphere of influence". Krushchev and Cuba learned that. Russia is a nuclear power. Policy makers in the US State department sh
