Nationalization of private companies? How is that not a communist act? Don’t get me wrong, I think he’s a fascist first and foremost but he’s doing some weirdly collectivist stuff. Which is funny because that is what actually uneducated Americans (not me, and it’s pretty funny you consider yourself to be a spokesperson for “the educated world” when you’re most likely a barely bilingual teenager) have been screaming about for a long time despite our socialized car culture, military, and corporate welfare program. But you go on and raise your blood pressure about things you don’t fully understand and yell on the Internet at people you certainly have little chance of challenging intellectually.

I mean he nationalized 10% of Intel. That’s pretty much textbook communism.

I moved to a foreign country as a child. Best thing that happened to me.

I’ve worked with a ton of these guys, they’re most often on H2A visas from Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala… And some of the companies that contract them are… Not diligent about paperwork. Sucks for the guys. And beyond that, forestry work and wildland firefighting will absolutely grind to a halt without them in the west and southeast. Absolutely kneecapping all efforts to reduce fuels and replant burns/clear-cuts. There’s an argument to be made that the use of these crews is essentially forced labor anyway (pretty crazy economic gradient from here to their home countries) but all the guys I worked with were stoked to have the job and returned year after year. Anyhow I was definitely waiting for this to happen, and it’s going to result in more dysfunction in the forest industry.

This is literally why the religious right in the US is so ecstatic about the whole thing- they’re setting the whole world up to want to root for the outcome that they’re striving for- the end of days as prophesied. It’s working flawlessly.

Relatable

I mean for the US. Which is like what, less than 5% of the world population? And now maybe much less??

What we’re really fucking up is the ramp from fossil to advanced energy sources that could enable massive outward expansion into the solar system. The billionaires are forgetting that a larger piece of a smaller pie is still less pie.

The FCC has (had? Do they still exist?) rules about this, very straightforward.

Nerds.

They do need to do this though. Survival of the fittest. The best model gets more energy access, etc.

I was unaware that it was unclear to anyone but children and the intellectually behind that anything you do on the Internet is traceable to you without significant countermeasures.

Uh …
