Before we applaud the 5d chess move, we are a bishop down, and no obvious plan to gain back prosperity/material. Flattering the narcisist with a sacrifice to win is indistinguishable from continued full submission and gaslighting us into it.

Your statement is mostly false, despite your valid examples. Wealth/income requires people/consumers. Phones/computers are cheap because billions can afford it. Food profits is a function of people. Autos definitely require scale, that is far more efficient than a humanoid robot doing flexible "manual" labour.

At the same time, however, not requiring slaves does motivate genocide instead of just sharing wealth with the slaves. It's better to exterminate humanity than to deal with slave class uppitiness.

You raise far more tax revenue able to redistribute as freedom dividends by incentivizing those who can earn $1m/hour to put in more hours.

UBI/freedom dividends is a solution well before mass AI driven unemployment. It disempowers rulerships/oligarchy towards empowering people. It eliminates crime. Gives people the opportunity/time for education and entrepreneurship.

It is far better than corrupt hierarchy that fights over centralized socialism vs corporatist supremacy.

Your question is horribly ugly and disgusting. Some people are unemployable due to dissatisfaction with society, or a tax structure that encourages investment instead of employment. When you consider "making people work" you are considering enslaving them/their time to eat this week without letting them use their time to contribute to their/social prosperity over their lifetimes. People need a money guarantee. Not a job guarantee. The former is even more productive for successful tax payers.

DST was going to bring in $1.5B/year in revenue. Dairy farmers would be happy to move to price subsidy model that the US has. Canada produces 9.5B litres of milk, and together with about $1B in programs for dairy farmers, 25c/liter paid to farmers would reduce retail milk prices by $1/liter.

Disturbing, as this was a significant revenue raiser that could help with those disenfranchised through tariffs, or fund the absurd destruction of Canada through 200% military spending increase. Continued US military alliance signals further capitulation, but just as attack on Iran was apparent end of war through victory declaration, there may be a quick return to status quo. OTOH, complete subjugation may be more likely.

The difference between a cult and a religion is state/empire approval/alliance, and the power of a religion is to deliver a flock to political demonism, completely independent/against of any principle of god. Where Jewish supremacist genocidal and apartheid zionism controls the state, they find natural allies with oligarchy because Israel usually asks for so little in comparison to rest of oligarchy, relative to their elections control. Corrupting politicians with a religious base, is easier by corrupting pastors to obtain more private planes, to deliver the souls of their flocks to the most demonic evil that pays them to do so.

In addition to OP's verse pretending that "Christians must be Jewish/Israel supremacists" instead of considering some of Jesus's/new testament differences with Judaism, the other big brainwashing misprioritization of the bible is the revelations prophesy of rapture connected to helping Israel fabricate a rapture.

Sun played no, or no authoritative, role in developing javascript. I don't know how they got the trademark except perhaps no one owning it thought they could monetize the trademark.

Gotten worse since 2015.

Simple distinction of capitalism vs socialism is private vs socialized profits. Where the commons are a social asset, profiting off it gives society a return in exchange for diminishment of commons.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 days ago

Tradgedy of the commons is usually a glib argument ending remark made when you point out the theft of the commons taking place, or the privatising of profits with socialized losses. Its meant to uphold theft as a feature of democratic capital supremacy.

Nope. Too many people making skynet. The dogs and goggles will do nothing.

 

vows to bankroll opponent to Zohran Mamdani.

 

The benefits are entirely "controlling global oil prices/supply". With the US all-in on climate terrorism, control of Israel helps control regional powers that also profit from climate destroying energy and delaying transition.

So, the only benefit is not an actual human sustainability benefit. It's an extreme cost.

The more obvious direct costs are paying for all the weapons, and the resentment that will lead to terrorism against Israel's allies. The fascism directed against those who protest genocide, is furthermore a step towards more intense fascism.

 

China has asked/threatened Egypt to close suez canal to military ships. It has radar ships in Persian Gulf. Asked Oman to not cooperate on airspace. Flurry of diplomatic calls today including Russia readout of more committed support for Iran.

Israel is threatening Pakistan next.

Trump's single focus on Ukrainian negotiations was always Russia distancing with Iran, and a quicker victory/peace is an easy bribe for Russia to accept.

But, OP, suggests deeper Iranian miscalculation for an independent path.

 

Diego Garcia can be destroyed by 3 countries within range: Iran, Pakistan, China. A nuclear strike would just kill military and signal a "not fucking around" posture.

Fucking around and waiting is world's Chamberlain moment.
