I think you are playing a game of semantics - if they are paid with private money, they ARE mercenaries.

THAT is a tremendously disturbing picture 😫

More 'lazy ass' than fraud.

If you find this thread hold true, you should read book The Politics of Denial by Milburn/Conrad

Tons of things would need to happen before this is even considered. This is not a law change, it is a cultural shift. Not to even mention that Japan is a communitarian society, and we are individualistic. NOT EASY

Nice, but where are people going to park their cars when a full street gets 'removed'.

Here is the trouble with the society of the spectacle.

If someone 'important' said that monkeys fly out of all asses at 3am and then a news team tests/reported back to the public that they saw no monkeys, no one is allowed to say that the news team has lost their fucking mind. They're reporting !

Homeowner insurance companies keep leaving New Orleans. There is no greater sign that one can point to that states "time to move". It is below sea level and the sea level is rising - get out before you bankrupt yourself.

More vitriol - grow up April, your a child

Jesus, what a reply. Why so much vitriol? Intellectually lazy idea?! April - he is just saying people need to step up. That's it. He said nothing about 'no one is doing anything'. He's saying many have checked out, and we need to check in.

That's it.

Don't reply if it's just more vitriol.

I think you are touching on the mechanisms of certitude, not racism. Certitude tends to be a whole body thing, a feeling not a thinking. Peace!

"A thousand years of history and contemporary evidence make one thing clear. Progress depends on the choices we make about technology. New ways of organizing production and communication can either serve the narrow interests of an elite or become the foundation for widespread prosperity."

We were not chatting jtunes6. You were monologuing.

You do not really engage do you?

You just blather with an eye on others watching the conversation - like a performance piece.

You obviously did not really read/understand what I typed. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Bill Gates to the rescue?! That idea is... Really Odd.

These are not good guys vs bad guys. You are setting up nefarious evil doers against some supposed accidentally lazy good guys. That is not what is happening. Too many people that have money are leaving the world behind, therefore they sorta cast judgement on the common man. No one cares. End story

It is not messaging.

They are not fighting for anything anymore, they seem to believe nothing is wrong save 'Trump'. The authoritarian push is happening 'worldwide' right now. This is not 'get your shit together Democrats'. It is a lot larger and no one seems to be addressing that...

Hierarchy!

Google maps caved to the stupidity

Swim? The fall will probably kill you.

Fwiw - Feb 6 2011 - during demolition

This is a complex issue, but based on recent reporting, SEPTA's funding is a recurring challenge that often comes down to political wrangling in Harrisburg. It's difficult to give a specific number of times this has happened in the past, as the "did not get funded" and "then did get funded" scenario often plays out over a period of time, not in a single, distinct event.

Yeah, but isn't our history that someone does something AFTER all the media games happen? AI couldn't give me specifics but it does agree we have played this game many times before...

The uncomfortable truth that shocks those reaching for some aspect of purity:

Finally - I reported this like 2-3 times!

When a boat goes into uncharted territory it needs to be prepared and not have bickering shipmates.

The 'cause' will be that half think we can close Pandora's box and the other half are throwing the barn doors wide open.

Blaming crypto is like Franklin's lost expedition blaming the Arctic.

Updated songs c/o AI:

And coke uncomfortably decides to create a star wars ad collaboration called 'refresh your galaxy' in which, with the prominence of the color red, seemingly celebrates the empire and, dare I say it, MAGA as the possible marketing demographic?!? Whatever sells your product I guess...
