Well, if its happening still, Im only saying it was journos saying it

2018-08-01 18:42:00 UTC  

I havent heard anything since those

2018-08-01 18:42:18 UTC  

And heres the thing, its google

2018-08-01 18:43:05 UTC  

They might be hiding it, might not. Might be resolved, but its been a long time ago. Something like this, people at KIA wont let them live it down and if they are not talking about it, it might not be so serious

2018-08-01 18:45:01 UTC  

Maybe. I think KiA is more outrage-bait than anything at this point. They don't do anything. And outrage-bait tends to forget all sorts of specifics. You need to maintain lists and easy reference bots to actually keep up with that sort of thing.

2018-08-01 18:45:35 UTC  

Pretty much

2018-08-01 18:46:05 UTC  

They focus on outrage more these days. Though I think their discord is better. Reddit was never good for long serious discussions.

Youd think that the feel of a penis would be hard to replicate with another object.

Old (2016, pre-election), but probably worth storing. Looks like Google has been shady for awhile.

As an aside, it should be noted the Bush administration had actually been prepping an anti-trust case against Google but it got killed by Obama (Schmidt was very close to Obama and was a major Democratic donor).

2018-08-01 18:50:13 UTC  

" The last major antitrust act of the W. Bush Administration was to threaten a Sherman Act monopolization case against Google on November 5, 2008. It successfully blocked a proposed search ad partnership between #1 search provider Google, with 70% share, and #2 Yahoo, with 20% share. "

The Venezuelan city where nothing works: Running water comes once a month and cash machines are empty - as president Maduro finally admits his socialist economic policies have 'FAILED'

2018-08-01 20:28:58 UTC  

Womp womp

2018-08-01 20:29:23 UTC  

We all know he will try socialism again though.

2018-08-01 20:30:18 UTC  

inb4 not Real Socialism

2018-08-01 20:31:35 UTC  

What he should do is get all the socialists in the US to move to Venezuela so they can try their versions of socialism. It could be a fun experiment.

2018-08-01 21:06:21 UTC  

we're looking at a 5% gdp in q3 people 😃

The GDPNow model estimate for real GDP growth (seasonally adjusted annual rate) in the third quarter of 2018 is 5.0 percent on August 1, up from 4.7 percent on July 31

(predictions of course)

“ Trump tells Sessions to ‘stop this rigged witch hunt right now” by Eileen Sullivan and Michael S. Schmidt

The fake news media attempts to mislead the public into thinking that Trump ordered Sessions to end the Trump Russia Investigation, which is now making the outlandish claim that his tweets are an obstruction of justice. They purposely exclude the word “should” from their headlines and analysis. This is clearly his opinion.

“ The FBI informant who monitored the Trump campaign, Stefan Halper, oversaw a CIA spying operation in the 1980 presidential election “ by Glenn Greenwald on The Intercept

The lie that this was just an FBI “ informant” embedded to protect the Trump campaign has been destroyed. This was a professional CIA political spy.

good ole political espionage

2018-08-02 00:48:06 UTC  

i really feel liek the 80s are makign a comeback

2018-08-02 00:48:24 UTC  

sythwave, commies, all of its too familiar

2018-08-02 05:43:28 UTC  

Layman here, but how do you go from socialism back to capitalism? Like who gets what to start with? Do you just claim ownership of whatever you can fight for and kill any mofo in your way? And how the fuck do you pay someone to work for you with no money to start with?

2018-08-02 06:27:35 UTC  

Nomatter what someones gonna make a trade commodity

2018-08-02 06:27:50 UTC  

Reminds me, how in Metro, mil grade ammo was their version of gold standard currency

2018-08-02 06:50:16 UTC  

Depends if your talking theoretical or practical

2018-08-02 06:51:19 UTC  

Theoretically a socialist society would have no currency and no privately owned buisneses, but personnel property would still be a thing

2018-08-02 06:52:07 UTC  

As ginga seggusted a theoretically collapsing socialist would likely revert to a barter economy and have to go through the economic evolution all over again

2018-08-02 06:53:03 UTC  

Eventually a universally accepted item would become a defacto currency such as bullets in metro or precious/rare metal coins throughout most of history

2018-08-02 06:54:11 UTC  

It will be something that isnt easy to reproduce

2018-08-02 06:54:23 UTC  

Bottlecaps in Fallout because they are hard to counterfeit

2018-08-02 06:54:24 UTC  

As far as who gets what property that would be way messier and far more complicated

2018-08-02 06:54:41 UTC  

Well, it depends on the level of tech in society

2018-08-02 06:54:53 UTC  

Depending upon how terrible the fall is existing insitutions will adapt and take most of the property

2018-08-02 06:54:56 UTC  

Early tech or low tech it will be something that is nessesary for survival like water and food

2018-08-02 06:55:14 UTC  

Mid tech, some resource that is hard to reproduce, like gold or precious metals

2018-08-02 06:55:22 UTC  

And high tech, something intrinsicly useless.
