the press/media is once again failing to accurately describe the situation. instead of "Harvard loses 2 billion in federal funding," the headlines should be "US government cuts ties with the world's top researchers because Trump opposes free speech and academic independence"

Leo XIV 2028?

I mean, it’s obviously the first option. businesses aren’t charities. when you work for one, your job is to help it operate. that’s what they’re paying you for. the quiz isn’t asking why you're personally motivated to work, it’s asking what your responsibility at work is

I get the reference, but unlike Vienna, only half of these people were in Chicago in 08-09. Al Capone was dead, and so was Friedman, and Kanye lived in LA

it's funny how religious people call atheists arrogant, when atheists are usually the ones willing to say “I don’t know.” it’s actually the religious who claim to have all the answers. I think it’s more arrogant to pretend you know everything than to admit you don't

Trump would make Gaza the Palestinian state and give the entire West Bank to Israel. why are you celebrating this. the details matter

from the article itself:

it definitely is a shared value with the current admin and its supporters

the party of Trump crying about corruption? lmao. sorry but after everything the current admin has done, I will never be able to take any of these claims seriously. talk about glass houses, they're in a goddamn glass city

notice how it says "foreign firms" and not "western firms." that's a very important distinction. the industry was privatized (privately owned by Iraqi companies, not foreign companies) and most of those oil contracts went to Russia and China

diversity of thought isn't inherently virtuous if it's full of disinformation, bad logic, and contradictory beliefs. the right is not intellectually diverse, they're fragmented and lost

Trump would've definitely nuked the entity in the new mission impossible movie

I want to make gold worthless. ever thought about that?

lot of dumbasses saying OP doesn't get supply and demand. I don't think the $700 quintillion is an economic forecast. it’s just to help people grasp scale. say “X million tons” and no one cares. add a dollar sign, and it clicks. no one actually thinks it would retain that value
