bruh it is literally just a write only ledger + wasted energy, there is nothing about crypto that is innovative aside from a new coat of paint for all the same old scams.
exept it doesnt, all crypto markets are almost entirely controlled not only by the west but by the exact same people and institutions that controlled similar thing before. crypto is completely and utterly useless except as vehicle for speculation, there does not exits a use case where better technologies didnt already exits.
Stalin good.
idk if where i live just has particularly few ads but i almost never see them outside and i dont watch tv cuz its awful and i have adblockers on everything i use for the internet so idk they play such a small role in my life that it doesnt bother me when i see the occasional one.
kinda fucked up to make a statue of genocidal racists like churchill but i guess that for some fucking reason his legacy isnt tainted by his own actions and words in most peoples minds.
imagine celebrating a pointless provocation and waste of resources; this will accomplish literally nothing, it wont even make amerikkkan politicians understand Russia's strength they are too stupid and deluded.
But WHY do they care so much about having influence over the middle east? what are they after? what do they want to do with this influence and this access to the economies of the middle east? sure to some extent they seek power for its own sake, and also to some extent they sought to destroy the country so their corporations had a new market to do in as the pleased, but oil is the biggest resource in the middle east its the most important export for almost all middle east countries, and it is also the backing for the american dollar and by extension americas entire monetary imperialist system, they want power in the middle east because of oil.
i mean it was primarily about oil, but sure israel's interests was also a motivation.
worst part is tank man was trying to get the tanks to go back to the plaza not trying to stop them going in. He wanted the terrorist dealt with, his OUR hero not theirs.
A true 2 state solution would mean peace for Palestine so yeah the probably want that. But it kinda doesnt matter because a 2 state solution is impossible as long as israel exists in the form it does now because it would continue its genocide restarting the war which isnt a solution at all.
I was just thinking theres no fucking way the netherlands didnt have human zoos.
Same for austria-hungary but i guess in that case its kinda hard to know what country to paint, just like the aztec empire; there is no real continuum between it and mexico.
Also for fun fact: its very likely that Motecuhzoma Xocoyotzin the Aztec emperor which first encountered the spanish conquistadors housed said conquistadors in his zoo.
I mean that its obviously factually wrong by thousands of years, but even if u qualify the statement enough to get it closer to what he probably had in mind that it was the first slave revolt in the americas by black slaves against the western european system of slavery its still either factually wrong or hugely disrespectful to the many successful slave revolts that didnt result in a state but "merely" consesions or independent free black communities like the Jamaican Maroons. And at least for me, hearing something so clearly wrong being said distracts from everything else being said and it calls it into question which sucks because as far as i can see the other stuff is great.
calling the Haitian revolution the first successful slave revolt in history is so wrong in so many different ways, that it distracts from all the great stuff his saying.
i mean most trends arent that drastic, its good that things change over time it would be boring otherwise, natural trend changes are cool imo. unnatural trends driven by corporate greed suck tho and i try to disengage from them as much as possible im looking at u square vs rounded edges.
i dont think capitalism will destroy life and civilization to as much of an extent as people seem to think. like i know rich people replaced all their blood with pure copium and think they are going to mars but at some point even those idiots have to realize they need to make some changes no one can truly be as stupid as they seem.
what i think will actually happen is that they will slow their destruction a lot by making us absolutely miserable and then people are gonna revolt.
imo they seem pretty useless, but i participate anyways just in case.
Plus i dont think i have ever seen a boycott for a cause i believed in that wasnt about some dumb shit that i could easily cut out of my life, like when people started boycotting fast food companies in support for Palestine i was basically already there and like i haven't bought missiles from Lockheed Martin in ages so i can give them up pretty easy too.
ur gonna have to go the only places untainted by capital...SPACE.
even if thats true laundering money isnt a use case for the technology its a flaw in it. its not exactly cool when sex traffickers and the like do it, is it.
