Yep, been thinking about how when everyone on your team is in on it, you just annoint an official crypto currency of the US government and of course you were in long before, then you just own the entire world and your currency is above most governments reach.

Super disappointed mods can’t parse people not being surprised or feeling something was deserved as a consequence of their actions, and advocating the violence.

My comment that got removed was “can’t imagine why this happened”, which neither calls for, nor celebrates violence, but expresses that the conditions leading to such an action, in our dystopian US are predictable, have happened before countless times in history all over the world.

The inability to acknowledge the fault of the powerful actors and system that created such conditions and utter lack of consequences for the rich and powerful in the US are what caused such responses for an agreeably horrific act. The issue that won’t go away, on Lemmy or anywhere else, and oversimplifying the above to “advocating violence” is disingenuous if deliberate, and idiotic if accidental.

You’d better be well paid, whatever you do. Like politics, all the wrong people go into Excel.

Just read the same article about CA last week; too much solar to be used so the excess solar generated, get this, was sold-often at a loss–to Arizona(the fact AZ can’t make it’s own sufficient solar shows the willful neglect, economic and political nature of energy!) and it lowered AZ bills but not CA. We’re back to energy traders and Enron price manipulations in the US after 20 years.

Batteries will fix much of it but until the grid has proper storage consumers getting fucked by businesses per usual.

A better question is why hasn’t capitalism driven a market for mountain building for ski resorts?

It must be something like(only worse) what math teachers felt when the pocket calculator became cheap and easily available. It doesn’t mean you can do math but people conflate the two.

I’m not sure who wins in a battle or cutting off their economic nose to spite their face in the ring between ignorant, manipulable racists in the UK vs. the US. Truly a bout for the ages, going 10 rounds for sure.

In the US and I read mountains of business and economic news,much of most of it assumes the reader supports and agrees with the underlying premises of cronie capitalism. It’s a really helpful way to understand how businesses operate, think and where economy and society will be driven.

Friendly banter is tariffed, 20% please so that we can find our soon-to-be shrinking government?

Forget what these folks say; it’s all an excuse to start companies that can be awarded no-bid contracts from the government they “want to dismantle”

And why economists and sociologists are important to have in the room when marketing and sales heads throw stupid fucking ideas on the table.
