Fire the CEO and hire back the best with pay rises, if they're willing. JC, MS, get a grip on yourselves.

That people are so hell bent on spending more money to do the worst* possible things rather than just doing the right things in 2024 blows my mind.

It seems a better expenditure than flinging cars into outer space, but that's just me. 🤷

A month so far. I mean, I'm pretty sure I probably said stuff that was ignorant of actual facts that showed up on other instances and could've been dv'd by, it argued over with them, it's hard to say since my original instance went down and I generally try not to hold grudges, but as long as I've been consciously aware, I don't recall any unpleasantness. But then I'm not going on their instances acting like I know everything just because I read it from a Western or US-centric source. All governments BS their citizens and we never really know to what extents, since *Assange, Snowden, Manning and a bunch of other whistle-blowers were heavily persecuted and prosecuted.

I have been corrected, with credible sources from Western-centric media and had my thinking challenged, but it wasn't disrespectfully, as far as I was aware. They're alright, I've had non -confrontational posts rm’d and been flamed for no good reason by mods and regulars on the biggest instance. Every other instance seems pretty decent, but that's my own experience.

We care. Our owners don't. Hopefully we can shift the course.

Israel and the USA routinely use DU in warfare and passively, as in tougher to penetrate tanks We know it's poison and needlessly expose every living thing to it, whether in warfare or not.

The affidavit originally submitted with the Green Party’s petition in July 2023 was the correct one. However, because the petition that the Green Party submitted contained a separate mistake, an employee in the secretary of state’s office sent the party a sample petition that included the wrong affidavit – for use with petitions to put initiatives and referenda on the ballot. As a result, the affidavits that the Green Party later submitted with its petitions did not contain the attestation required for access to the ballot.

Wow.

Ah yes, because people with dirty jobs and aching backs are the problem, not industries.

, in my case, the U.S. government asserted a dangerous, dangerous new global legal position. Only U.S. citizens have free speech rights. Europeans and other nationalities do not have free speech rights, but the U.S. claims its Espionage Act still applies to them, regardless of where they are. So Europeans in Europe must obey the U.S. secrecy law with no defenses at all.

On what planet does that sound less than completely sociopathic?

Also I had no idea Barr was ex CIA. It explains a lot and contradicts a lot. I'm very confused by Barr.

Southeasterner here. We already have.

I wonder which country has actually used nuclear weapons?
