Settlers are legitimate targets

Sounds like a .worlder problem

If you believe this conflict is about religion, you are a gullible idiot. The conflict is a colonial one; the same sort of genocidal displacement we saw in North America only on the age of smartphones.

If everyone on both sides became Atheists, the Israelis would still be butchering the Palestinians and the Palestinians would still be fighting for their freedom.

Blocking imports of Chinese EVs while American manufacturers keep their EVs as luxury products and prioritize CE vehicles is not only blatant protectionism, but another way to kill the planet for the sole purpose of enriching a small minority of very wealthy people.

I main Lemmygrad and you've been defederated from us since the beginning, so I don't think I would notice nor care. Good riddance lib safe space.

The other comments here do not mention the most important part: the fiscal recession cycles caused by publicly traded, unregulated markets. In other words, the predictable 8-year pattern of booms and busts - the creation of a speculative bubble of growth followed by that bubble popping - that defines modern Capitalist economies.

No recession or depression in recent memory has truly been caused by a mismatch of supply and demand. Instead, they are caused by our complex financial investment apparatus; they have nothing to do with the "producing and buying things" side of Capitalism and everything to do with the "Moving money around" side of it. A thing - real estate, tech startups, comic books, whatever - begins to grow in value not because it is actually worth more but because people are speculating on its future value.

This is why Uber keeps growing in valuation despite never making a profit: the people buying Uber stock are not betting on Uber making a profit, but that other people will buy Uber stock in the future, further increasing the price of the shares. This is a bubble that will eventually burst, when they run out of potential investors to keep propping up the share price - but you maximize return on investment if you jump ship at the very last moment.

The '08 housing crisis is a great example. It followed an almost identical speculative bubble, except with mortgage-backed securities.

While these things will happen to some extent in Socialist countries with market economies, there are two reasons why they hit Capitalist countries extremely hard.

The first is that modern Capitalism has made every person into their own little Capitalist. Retirement funds are tied to the stock market, rent and housing prices aren't fixed. Ephemeral financial-sector bullshit affects ordinary people when it has no reason to.

The second is that strong regulation can prevent the worst effects on ordinary people. Socialist governments can fix prices and forgive debts in order to minimize the effects of a fiscal downturn.

Basically the upper management was getting mad that Paper Mario was taking on too much of its own identity compared to the broader Mario brand. It's why Origami King is mostly just Toads all over the place.

I really think you're onto something - just the headline (and, remember, the vast majority of people only read the headlines of articles - so the headline is where the company gets the information they want to convey to as many eyes as possible) calls the company:

• Dying
• Fraudulent
• Anti-Privacy
• Anti-American

Just to give a potential shareholder as many reasons as possible to decide "I no longer wish to support this company/I want to get out before this company fails".

Maybe TEMU is a bad company with a bad product, but it's worthless arguing about whether or not this is the case when the article itself cares very little about making concrete points and has an ulterior motive in publishing the article.

While world peace is obviously desirable, I think it's important to recognize that the absence of conflict does not imply the presence of justice. World peace should not be pursued until we first achieve universal justice, because pursuing universal justice will require war.

Stopping wars while we live in an unjust international order does nothing but solidify that order and demonize opposition to it as "warmongering". Some wars are just. The Allies could have avoided a lot of bloodshed had they invaded Germany to immediately depose Hitler, rather than allowing him to solidify his power, grow Germany's military, and invade Poland and Czechoslovakia.

The end of war will naturally follow the end of inequality and injustice.
