That's great, only like a generation of people having to suffer and struggle from say age 20 to 40 so that their masters can attempt to be a superpower.

Engaging in bad and immoral behaviour for capital is still bad and immoral behaviour, particularly when one has other choices.

The point of capitalism is that it incentivizes behavior at a large scale through the allocation of capital. That behavior could be bad or good.

The way to make sure that behavior isnt bad is to regulate the economy to ban it. Not to scold people who follow those incentives but then do nothing about the actual incentive structure


I'm all for banning social media as well as tracking in general, and will also happily work to those effects.

It's also prudent to shame those who allocate and greedily take that capital.


>Following rulings in several courts, the UK Supreme Court on Wednesday said Oatly could neither trademark nor use the phrase "post-milk generation".

>The long-running dispute has centred on Dairy UK's argument that, under trademark law, the term "milk" can only be used to refer to products that come from an animal.

Next they should ban "zero sugar" and similar on packaging


Then ban "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!".

Murder/homicide rate has been relatively consistent since 1990 https://www.macrotrends.net/global-metrics/countries/swe/swe...


I don’t know what you want me to do with this information.


The point of the information was that Sweden has a relatively high crime rate. For point of comparison, most of of the L.A. area has a lower crime rate than Sweden.

The other point was that the arrival of immigrants did not increase the crime rate.


"The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread."


You'd hope there is room for a lot of stuff in between as well. I tried searching for some of yhe more unknown artists I follow (and have bought stuff from!) but didn't see any clear way to filter it to Spotify/music metadata only. Restricting to metadata+other cuts it down somewhat but it's still 100s of results for most topics.

Will be interesting to see what's there and not once the actual music torrents come up, should make it easier to search.


It's in their roadmap, from what they said. I'd imagine they wouldn't reject someone who wanted to contribute that feature to the project.


What is the evidence that these are drug traffickers? Are they convicted anywhere? Should the police in the US be able to execute anyone they claim are trafficking drugs or committing other crimes?


No, no, people in the US are protected by The Constitution.

Killing foreigners is fine, though.


It's also not mandatory for the majority of jews, as they are not Israeli citizens


> Also: You are promoting that we keep a grudge. Are you planning to let go of it sometime?

Sure! Once the people responsible for the wars have been punished. Any day now...


I don't think it's so much about the Rules of Engagement but more about "Don't indiscriminately murder people"


Indiscriminate would be nuclear weapons on cities. This mission’s ultimate goal was to prevent NK doing that.

If you could stop NK doing that, would you pull the trigger? Would you make a targeted kill of a person who compromised that mission by discovering it?


No? I don't think this is the trap you think it is.


Maybe it's not, but that's the point: trying to understand what it is from the point of view of people who did it.
