How tone deaf is Hollywood, that they don't realise we WANT niche movies that aren't mass produced shlock?

I'd like to see what justifications the pro-Israeli camp comes up with for this one.

[-] wahming@monyet.cc 27 points 8 months ago

Taken as it is with no context, I would agree with you. However, based on what others have revealed about your removed posts, and your own comments in this thread, I'm concluding that whichever mod removed your post was merely the first one that happened to see it, it was going to happen regardless.

The features of successful systems, Ostrom and her colleagues found, include clear boundaries (the ‘community’ doing the managing must be well-defined); reliable monitoring of the shared resource; a reasonable balance of costs and benefits for participants; a predictable process for the fast and fair resolution of conflicts; an escalating series of punishments for cheaters; and good relationships between the community and other layers of authority, from household heads to international institutions.

Somehow the author extrapolates this into 'Tragedy can be avoided, therefore it doesn't exist and is a myth'. What is this ridiculous logic?

For a moment I thought it was a pokemon joke, then I realised it's an actual legit concern.

Are you expecting them to be based in Xinjiang? I'm sure the Chinese govt would love that

It's been calculated multiple times that UBI would have a similar cost to existing welfare programs due to the significantly reduced overhead. Thus whoever pays for UBI are the same ones currently paying for existing welfare.

the children that are around get to have a future!

I'd love that, but the concern is that society collapses from the sudden top heavy population ratio that we've never had to deal with and are unprepared for. The kids won't have much of a future if that happens

This hits too close to home to be funny

Sounds like the religious fanatic part is more relevant than the nationality

If they'd done this right out of the gate, nobody would have thought that is unreasonable.

That's ridiculous. There's no technical way they can accurately detect repeat installs on the same device, or pirated copies. Which means devs will pay out the nose for no reason. The outrage exists for a reason
