Coincidentally enough, Danielle Smith is also owned by Republican-linked private equity firms!

What US tech? You mean the tech they buy from south-east Asia and slap their logos on?

This trade war is not just a disagreement over trade policy. It's a war of independence, and the US has decided that we should not be independent anymore. We've already ceded so much of our independence to the US over the last 40 years via heavy-handed economic treaties with purpose-built backdoors, they've decided we shouldn't have any kind of sovereignty at all.

War is hell. War requires sacrifices. War is destructive. We've not actually signaled as a population that we are OK with the damage this war is going to do to us, and it's not at all clear to us what is necessary to survive this attack intact, and what is just basic shock-doctrine exploitation.

If Alberta would stop thinking not having their preferred political leaders in power is an attack on them, maybe we could talk. Until then, maybe they can stop being dicks to the rest of the country all the god damn time?

I am shocked, shocked, I say!

This.

For some bizarre reason, Americans are defined via international treaty as "not refugees". Nothing the US government does to its citizens is allowed to be considered inhumane, oppressive, or persecution.

Quick Time Events; characters that automatically do 60 things just by holding down "forward" on the joystick; the Ubisoft logo.

The Internet is populated by people who think English grammar is cosmic law, so it doesn't surprise me that they think you should bend over for dogshit urban planning.

Ironically, none of them follow the rule of shutting up if they don't know shit about shit.

Green spaces: Just for viewing.

What kind of dystopian hellscape do you want the world to be, exactly?

Sure. Neoliberalism won. Anyone not a part of the privaate equity class lost.

As someone who isn't part of the private equity class, I ain't fucking celebrating.

Man, that's a pretty big management team for something that's just a bluesky front end.

Except on election day. Where where these people when they could have stopped him?

Gotta keep going. Not all signatures are going to be legit, so a reasonable buffer needs to be in place.

This. The DTS was not a tax on American or foreign digital services, but all of them. Home grown digital services companies were certainly lobbying to get this killed, too.

Sure, but that's not what's being discussed. Sanders is saying people deserve a 4 day work week at full pay.

Anyone can negotiate a 4 day work week for a 20% paycut. That's not worth public figures time to discuss.

Hulkamania running wild on capital markets

What investment? We've pumped millions of dollars into these companies to get them to expand their networks to rural communities, and they've just shoved it up their ass like a cash enema. They're definitely not spending their own money on improving services.

The only systems they're incentivized to improve are the ones that funnel our cash into their pockets.

"What would you rather people who struggle to stack water cases be doing to earn a living? Flying planes? Heart surgery?"

It's not that hard to throw up a website that allows user uploads. The community can replace iN in a heartbeat. They bought into their brand as the important thing, and not the contributors, and now they're probably going to slowly waste away.
