anybody has ever claimed that BreadTube was an educational project to further advance the working class' struggles

Even people here did sometimes, some of those people were me (though from an infotainment angle which challenges the ideological hegemony a bit).

That is true, though.

The current information (couple hours out of date) German source give is that Armenian forces (or rather of the autonomous republic) surrendered, but that it isn't followed completely.

I absolutely agree. All of those exist and there is less than this arbitrary 0.57 novelty rating there. Though I have to say that having studied together with MBA students their ideas were on the same level of uselessness. One did tell us in a seminar he had a great idea: What if you could pay with your phone for renting a car at the car you want to use?

Crass idea, back then there were already the first companies who rolled out that thing. He was convinced that his idea would make him money, not getting how capital is what makes you able to profit from ideas in capitalism.

Absolutely nobody intends to take away their economic power

Who do you mean?

Really not a fan of targeting children for their parents sins. Take away the economic power and they are mostly like us.

It also is often how conservatives and reactionaries and a couple of libs I know talk.

Like: "No, just cause you did a quip does not mean your argument is valid or my counter point isn't.

Things can be true at the same time and your points are mostly re-iterating things for yourself so you feel seen and heard while your self is destroyed in capitalism since your waking hours are bound to wage work during which you only get the 5 minute and lunch breaks to present your asine opinions."

So this thing is mostly a show of the organizers having failed infrastructure, having failed to deal with relatively low rain and not having sensible sanitation infrastructure, as well as having a focus on car travel instead of public transport to the event area? I do get that in the desert your storm water takes time to get into the ground, but what you describe is not that big a problem, if you have the means to deal with it.

Rainfall reports from the National Weather Service suggest up to 0.8 inches of rain fell in the area from Friday morning through Saturday morning – approximately two to three months of rainfall for that location this time of year. Even small rainfall totals can lead to flooding in the dry Nevada desert.

Flood watches were in effect in northeast Nevada, to the east of Black Rock City. Those watches noted individual storms were producing up to one inch of rainfall, but higher totals — as much as 3 inches — would be possible through the weekend.

The festival, which began in 1986, is held each summer in Black Rock City – a temporary metropolis that is erected annually for the festival. The city comes complete with planning services, emergency, safety and sanitary infrastructure.

Doesn't seem to be "complete with sanitary and safety infrastructure". If you wouldn't do it in a desert you could also ensure good seepage, and using other kind of toilets would've reduced the problem with the toilets. All in all an example of US individualism in planing for communal events.

  • got inheritance of $800k and saved up $60k (and had bitcoin due to not being good with financial stuff that are worth like some $100k).

  • lived in the third house of the parents, got down payment and cars and holidays from parents

  • got parents as co signers for loan and down payment

  • got a whole building which is rented out from grandparents

  • bought a trash house, had and have to renovate it and both partners are working full time and will have reduced the credit to 0 when they are 65, since it is somewhat trashy the energy costs are also high and it is tiny.

Those are the five people I know of who bought houses.
