The tech bros over-invested in AI and are now desperately trying to get everyone to get onboard before the bubble pops.

This is why "Socialism never works".
The US drops heavy sanctions on countries that pull themselves out of poverty. That, and CIA coups are why socialist countries "fail".

The US has been using its economic power to assert its will on allies and enemies alike for a long time.
It's a large part of "Why do socialist countries fail all the time?". Because the US drops heavy sanctions on socialist countries that pull themselves out of poverty. (That, and CIA coups.)

My socialism doesn't include bigotry.
If you're defending bigots you're not actually on the left.

Dems doubling down on not learning anything and staying committed to corruption.

Incoming Mar-A-Lago face alert!

But don't forget that every "distraction" is a distraction from Trump's corruption and his connection to the Epstein files.

Nothing Musk says is accurate.
Stop being a mouthpiece for him and start doing actual journalism.

"Big beasts" LOL.
Most of their wealth is financial trickery.
Wall Street could disappear overnight and the world would not only keep working but be better off for it.
It's only a matter of time until their latest bubble pops.

#TaxTheRich
It's the only way we'll be able to stop these entitled nutjobs from completely wrecking the country.
And stop all the media mergers. In fact, start breaking them up so we don't have a handful of rich owners pushing their propaganda 24/7.

True. They're doing it just to roll back a Biden change. Pure pettiness.
Just to be clear: I'm not saying Trump is right. But it actually would be better if they changed the font to something more readable. But Trumpers would call it DEI or woke, so...

As a billionaire narcissist, Trump has *always* been detached from reality.

Many fonts have readability issues.
I'm not saying Times New Roman is best.
If they're going to change it they should pick a better font.

Racist hypocrisy.
Trump doesn't care if American companies are polluting things. But if Mexicans do it, suddenly it's a problem.

Trump is changing the font for petty, jealous reasons.
But he's not *entirely* wrong...
Sans serif fonts are slightly harder to read than serif fonts. Without the serif (the little spikes at the tips of letters) it can be hard to distinguish letters.
Example: Is this a capital I or a lowercase l?

If they're going to charge different prices, it should be based on net wealth.
The rich should be charged higher prices and the poor should be charged lower prices.
It will never happen of course because the rich get rich by exploiting and ripping off the poor.

Again, no point to it because you'll just twist things to fit your agenda. Your opinion is your opinion. And it's just an opinion.

No, you just refuse to admit they exist.
I could go back and review but it would be a waste of time because you would just refuse to accept the evidence.

It's been a while so I can't remember anything specific but I do remember thinking "That was dumb" on several occasions.
Again, I don't have a problem with characters getting emotional. But I don't want to see an emotional breakdown every episode either.

I don't have a problem with characters getting emotional if the situation warrants.
But Burnham was *extra* emotional all the time and for someone trained in Vulcan logic she was making a lot of bad, emotion-driven decisions.
It was sloppy writing.

Correction:
Stephen Miller's Gestapo agents were caught on video chasing a young American mother without justification.
Luckily, she escaped into her home where her father faced down the agents who left without illegally arresting anyone.

"Try".
All they have to do is get rid of the filibuster rule and pass things with a simple majority.
"But Republicans will do awful things!" They already do.
Dems keep the filibuster in place as an excuse for why they "can't" get things done.

The government doesn't need warrants anymore.
They just buy the data from data collectors.
