Time for Dems to shut down the government and call a general strike. Unify the people. Kind of like what Biden did with the railway strike in 2022, but the opposite.
You guys are gonna blame leftists and/or Putin all the way to prison, aren't you? What's happening now is purely American, baby, and non-whites have been subjected to it for hundreds of years.
Sarcasm aside, you really don't need to look much further than American literacy rates and money in politics to see how we got here. Bonus points if you look into FPTP and gerrymandering. Of course it's much easier to be intellectually lazy and just say "this is all Putin's fault. Just wait till the miderms".
Newly released files have revealed that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor spent considerable time with Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping, according to emails from convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
That's not what "being in the Epstein files" means.
spending surged 66% to $37.5 billion in the latest quarter ... approximately 45% of the company’s $625 billion in remaining performance obligations (RPO)—a key measure of future cloud contracts—is tied directly to OpenAI
Ding ding ding! That's right, OpenAI, the company where being profitable is a physical and mathematical impossibility!
It's so funny to see capitalism trying to cover it's ass. Since when does having a great harvest translate to free food for everyone? Gimme a break. The reason those 4 million kilos of potatoes are being given away is that the capitalist who was holding the futures contract for these potatoes decided to take a loss instead of have the potatoes delivered to market, since the price of potatoes would not have yielded him a profit. The point of capitalism is to yield a profit, even for life's basic necessities. In this case, it wasn't even the futures trader that arranged the giveaway- it was the people who did. The trader didn't plant or harvest a single potato, but he was placed in charge of four million kilos of food. It really goes to show that we don't need these people at all- we can manage much better without them.
Auto-translation of linked article:
Try to imagine a quantity of four million kilograms of potatoes. Four million kilograms - that’s 4000 tons, the weight of 800 adult elephants, stacked as high as the Berlin TV Tower. It’s a lot that could fill hundreds of thousands of people.
These potatoes are stored in the halls of a farm south of Leipzig, neatly sorted, cool and dry, best food quality. And they have a problem: no one wants them.
The story of these potatoes is a story about the absurdities of our food system. A trader had ordered the harvest, but when the potatoes were harvested and stored, it was clear: the supply on the market is greater than the demand. The market price had fallen, the offer too big. What is no longer profitable for trade becomes a burden for the producer. Financially, everything was settled, but the potatoes remained.
Shortly before Christmas, I received an email from Ecosia, a search engine we had just reported on. Ecosia is the Berlin company that plants trees with its advertising revenue – over 200 million worldwide. Chief Financial Officer Wolfgang Oels wrote that there is contact with a farm south of Leipzig that has to destroy 4000 tons of potatoes. “Do we, as Berliner Morgenpost and Ecosia, want to make this a joint action?”
We can. We want. And we need your help.
The largest potato rescue in the city
The plan is simple: Ecosia finances the transport from Saxony to Berlin. The Berliner Morgenpost helps to organize the free distribution.
We are looking for distribution points throughout the city: parishes, schools, sports clubs, neighborhood initiatives, social institutions or private individuals. Each collection point receives one ton of potatoes, free of charge, to distribute to all who can use them (Agria variety, firm cooking!). They can help distribute - and show together with us what is possible if we treat food for what they are: valuable.
This is a perfect comment because it describes exactly what happened (from their perspective) in the most succinct way possible. 💯
Ok, thanks.
But does push work for you normally, even without cloud messaging?
Ah, alright. I guess being in the Epstein files isn't really all that bad then.
Nice, I'll add that to the list. Being anti-genocide makes you
Antisemitic
A tankie
(not sure you guys know what either of those mean anymore tbh the way you apply it to everything lol)
No, "being in the Epstein files", as a turn of phrase, means you rape kids.
Why, did Orangeboi send more money and munitions than Biden or something?
ICE is gonna get their shit rocked in Portland.
Links to notepad-plus-plus.orgYea idk enough about to computers to know if I should click that or not...
Normal people when they realize leftists were right:
But fr, they were right and we need to start listening to them. First thing to do is unite!

Joe Biden would have never supported a genocied.

edit: geopolitics- yea, the US did this to itself (but a few people made a lot of money!!).
That's not what "being in the Epstein files" means.
Nope, try again.
Ding ding ding! That's right, OpenAI, the company where being profitable is a physical and mathematical impossibility!
All your data are belong to us.
No. Your initial comment is whataboutism. The cartoon is not.
This cartoon is about Ukraine.
