> Wars used to be paid for by raising taxes

in the long term maybe, in the short term its mass debt of trillions

Inflation sort of is a tax, on those who do not hold appreciating assets. I.e. mostly people on the poorer side.

Big tech supercorp wants war efforts to increase

May as well be a post by Weyland-Yutani or Tyrell corp.

the absurdity to even entertain this dorks musings.

imagine if tim cook or satya came out and talked about how there needs to be a draft. people would say lol shut up nerd and move on.

some dorkus who heads a company that's just providing over reaching surveillance data to governments so they can do dumb data analytics should have no say in these affairs, and we should promptly discard what they have to say. peter thiel is a sociopath, karp is a dork, these people just want to be known as "the guy with the ideas" and they've crossed deep into the "what are you even saying right now" territory.

tbh we should jettison them into the sun they're kind of a scourge on civilization and clearly lake any real stakes that keep them grounded in the world.

that single succes story doesnt impact this situation though

No they’re not. But they are often wrongly attributed by malicious parties.

Israeli top officials (Netanyahu) will say someone is an anti-semite when they are anti Israel / anti-Zionism. Because we all widely agree anti semitism is bad but do not so much agree on anti zionism being bad, given the genocide they’re perpetrating of course.

In general I think mostly extremists on any side will misuse the terms but if you explain the terms and ask the average person they will not think they are the same thing.

yikes

at 20$ a click i’d click on my own adverts tbh

Then you get banned

"We wouldn't want somebody scraping our data, that's ours!"

Wonder if the companies (who have been mostly passing on the tariffs to the end user) will just add the refunds to their profits or give back in some way

welp, yikes

hahahahaha, bro jumped at the bag
