I think I can see the problem here…

How else will you make it so that people can’t find anything better to do than work for a pittance and shop?

Also defunding arts, sciences, academia, and anything that might improve people’s lives, and making minorities suffer more.

Just get a small gift or loan of a few million dollars from your parents. Honestly, why don’t more of the poor think of this? Clearly they are not very smart.

I like to use a private jet. I can be so much more productive!

It’s OK, we already have even worse people to continue his work.

The scariest thing about our surveillance culture is how we internalize it and change our behaviour without even realizing it. The other scariest thing is that it stops us talking to one another, so that we can never organize to improve the dystopia we live in.

You won’t know if you’re being influenced by propaganda. You’ll feel you’re immune if it’s working well.

Propaganda usually works at a deeper level. It can nudge your attention towards some things and away from others, so that you don’t even realize you could have attended to other things. It can frame what you consider important or unimportant. It can subtly influence what facts you’re exposed to, or what you consider a fact from a trustworthy source. It can nudge your emotions and perceptions of trustworthiness, shape your unquestioned narratives and unconscious assumptions, influence how you form associations, mold your incentives, and determine what you’ll never see or hear and never know you’re missing. There are many voices in this world that, by design, you haven’t heard, and others that, by design, you don’t consider worth listening to.

Forming an opinion involves prior beliefs, definitions, and judgements about credibility and what counts as evidence. Propaganda steers these steps, not just the conscious opinion-forming you are aware of. By the time you’re aware that you’re forming an opinion based on facts, propaganda has often already done its work, and if you wind up undecided that might be exactly the intended result.

It’s pretty sad that some people are so lonely even AI feels like companionship. The issue isn’t that these older people are undiscerning and easily pleased, it’s that they’re desperately lonely.

Schiff should be campaigning to influence the people that started the trade war and continue to threaten the USA’s traditional allies and trade partners. Those people are in the US Government, not in Canada.

And Meredith Lilly sounds like a traitor, who is also pressuring Canada to back down and make life easier for Trump.

Meredith Lilly, who worked as an advisor to former Prime Minister Stephen Harper, believes the provinces are “overstepping their jurisdiction” with the ban.

The Carleton University professor and Simon Reisman Chair in International Economic Policy says she expects there are a number of conversations happening behind the scenes and hopes the federal government is pushing to get booze back on the shelves, and that provinces are listening.

“International trade negotiations are a federal responsibility, not a provincial responsibility, and so it’s my view that the provincial premiers should be working collaboratively with Ottawa and taking signals from Ottawa about what would be the best approach,” she told CTV News.

She says the trade irritant has “become quite a personal issue” for American officials on the file, including United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.

“It seems like this is one of the measures that could be taken quite easily to move the conversation forward in a more constructive way,” Lilly said.

But please, not the Democrats you currently have. You need some leaders who represent the people.

These laws, near-identical versions of which are being rammed through in many countries simultaneously, could make it legally and financially infeasible for anyone but wealthy corporations to run online services. You have to suspect this is by design.

The effect will be that all communication has to go through censored, commercial channels with integrated deep surveillance. Political dissidents will be unable to organize without being flagged, and left-wing messages will be easy to suppress. Combine it with the recent tendency to cut left organizations off from banking and payment systems, and it starts to look pretty attractive to governments who know their populations are going to be angry about what is coming.

The climate crisis is really starting to bite and our political and economic systems are only equipped to serve the wealthy few. If the next crash is the big one and people start to starve, governments and the few they serve are going to need all the tools of suppression they can get.

Maybe the wording of the headline isn’t very important, but that word “debate” makes it sound awfully polite and non-urgent. These are murdering, state-sponsored, fascist thugs with no accountability, engaged in a brutal campaign of white supremacist ethnic cleansing. There’s no debate to be had, because anyone who supports it has already embraced a fascism that rejects ethics and reason for the violent enforcement of their own will.

tl;dr: Ask for extra pages, because so far they’re only putting his absurd picture in the thinner passports.

There go the humanities then. The USA will become more ignorant and less wise, which is what the inhumane dumbasses running the country want. A cultural wasteland run by techbros and financial fraudsters.

We have to reduce the influence of billionaires, or anyone with less is ignored.

I know my colleagues and former colleagues, and have reason to be confident it didn’t.

I think it’s fine for people to give the most cursory explanation here, just enough to help someone understand what’s funny. There are plenty of other sites where one can learn about Rust’s borrow checker in more detail, and this is a humor community.

I wouldn’t expect anyone to know about it unless they had taken an interest in Rust. It’s pretty unusual.
