Imagine claiming that Venezuelan land and oil rightfully belongs to usa and was stolen by the people of Venezuela

I mean to be fair that's exactly what white settler colonizers did during Manifest Destiny to claim 99% of America's current land. "Remember the Alamo" = what are all these evil Mexicans doing here in... northern Mexico? One of the main reasons the founding fathers rebelled against Britain was to maintain the value of their land speculation investments in American Indian territory that Britain did not want white settlers to invade.

“I’ve watched a multi-age group of kids, including 9-year-olds, laugh their way through a round with their Nex Playground.” - Forbes ( https://www.nexplayground.com/ )

Yes, and the AI was also watching those children, but I guess that's okay?

Also, the platform "values you" and yet you have to pay the platform to boost your posts. It would seem like it is you who value the platform, and not the platform that values you. I guess that's just "common sense."

Turns out that capitalism in decay produces an environment which is actively harmful to human growth and flourishing. Who could have predicted that?

I genuinely have no idea what his next move is. Send ICE in to New York City to arrest and torture random people? Just straight up invade Venezuela?

This is coming from the Financial Times, so this is what the serious, sane capitalists actually believe. Xi, please, you have to see what's happening, right? xi-button

This is a glimpse at our future under Techno-Feudalism, by the way. Five companies own all the entertainment and charge you extortionate rates to rent it. Please enjoy these last few years of Steam allowing indie games to be published with $20.00 or lower prices - once Gabe Newell goes away, inide devs are going to get "Spotified" out of existence by whatever venture capitalist buys up Steam.

THEY. ARE. DABBING. ON. US.

The Democrats have the political instincts of that giant bird species from New Zealand who had never seen predators before and was hunted to extinction by the Maori hundreds of years ago.

This is NOT A.I. generated by the way, link to the tweet I got this from:

Behind the banner is Hunter Biden and Bernie Sanders, FYI. Hunter Biden / Chelsea Clinton would be a great Fail-Child ticket. Although Pritzker / Fetterman would definitely be the best based purely on Large Oaf -ishness.

It was about the Election Rigging Response Act. Looks like Obama made the boss call and the DNC has their man. Ger ready for 2.5 years of liberals telling us Gavin is the "only person" who can defeat Trump.

I am not unconvinced that, at some point, Trump was the victim of an "Inception" heist that placed the idea of tariffs at the center of his mind-palace.

According to the news, Americans are only going to be paying $1,000 more per person for their basic goods this year. It's a good thing most people aren't working paycheck to paycheck, have been receiving cost-of-living wages, and are not already in debt, right?

[-] KurtVonnegut@hexbear.net 62 points 1 year ago

Just straight up saying “some people at the last eyes wide shut party were really uncomfortable so you must pay”

Finally something both Republican and Democratic congresspeople can agree on.

Nah, objectively and logically it was when she said who-must-go must go.

The thing is, he DID waste it.

And then Kamala hired Hillary's campaign advisers, got rid of her 2 most popular slogans (We're not going back + They are weird) and started hugging Dick Cheney's right-wing daughter. Kamala's campaign is somehow more embarrassing and incompetent than Hillary's, and that's saying something.

Also, not that it matters, but a "DNA test" is not how you find out if someone has XX, XY, or XXY chromosomes. The word Rowling is looking for is "Karyotype." But hey, if she knew how gender science worked, she probably would not be a TERF.

I now feel bad for finding this stuff funny because of course someone going through grief

Her husband had a twitter profile where he told the Palestinians to "get over it," among other horrible right-wing things. So don't feel too bad.

He also played a violent new video game that has just recently been discovered, called "Fortnite," and described himself as having "skibidi rizz" but not being a "sussy baka." These slang terms are gang lingo used by only the most dangerous terrorists.

Markets have brought more people out of poverty than anything.

Yes, just like the Irish people who were "helped" by the free market in the 1840s. Or the Indian people who were "helped" by the free market in the late 1800s. You might be interested in this book by the late, great Mike Davis which completely refutes your ideas with hard evidence that the free market can be used (and has been used) as a tool of genocide: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/7859
