California produces 10% of American agricultural needs. If they secede it would be way worse on the economy than these tariffs.

Good point. I’ve never seen an ad on it and I’ve been using it for at least a week. There’s sponsored content, but you’d have to go looking for it. Like if I wanted to watch some videos about Nike shoes, I’d see sponsored videos and such. But no actual ads.

Based on the interaction with the app. The features are extensive. There’s no ads. My data has most likely been leaked by American companies anyways, so what’s the big deal?

Rednote doesn’t have ads

So far it’s been a wildly better experience

Or just go to rednote instead

Get ready for The Great Depression Pt. 2: The Electric Boogaloo

China keeps taxes low by investing directly in businesses instead of shelling out grants and tax breaks. It’s been incredibly effective.

Last time we had a tariff war like this was the great depression

If all my data is for sale and China can just buy all my data from Meta, Amazon, Google, etc. Then why not just skip the middleman? At least if I give my data directly to the CCP, Zuckerberg won’t have access to it.

I just learned from red note that Chinese people don’t pay property taxes. Once they pay off their mortgage, they just own their home. I’m definitely the one living in a third world country.

She probably has her assets tied up in foreign banks where the state can’t access it. Anarchists are dumb and only useful for revolutionary purposes. Once revolutions end, so must the anarchist. Currency is a necessity because there is not enough material abundance to not need it. All the shit jobs that no one wants to do needs to be automated before we can remove money. This is the dream that Marx had for Communism. If you don’t understand the basic foundation for achieving a true Communist society, then you are not educated enough to speak on the subject.

Kim Il-Sung tried demonetization prematurely from the dprk and it ended horribly. You cannot advance society into a Communist state without making the proper technological and material advancement necessary to support it. But you anarchists want to live in hippie communes and sing songs instead of advancing society. Marx did not advocate for a reverting back to tribal society, but a necessary progression from capitalism to socialism and eventually communism.

Any Communist knows that this future is not possible until money is no longer a necessity. As long as money exists, there will be those that exploit it to control and oppress those with less than. Capital punishment is necessary to end this exploitation. That being said, they’re giving her a choice, pay back $9 billion or die. Pretty simple. She has an opportunity to not die.

Seems like a good time to lift the embargos so they can fix their infrastructure.

I read that as the peen is mightier than the sword and giggled

I’m pretty sure the answer is no.

I’ve lived in the Tampa Bay area my entire life, never evacuated before, and I left last night. Fuck Milton. Not worth riding this one out.

I’m pretty sure Crimea wouldn’t like that deal.

So, obviously research this yourself and don’t listen to some dumbass on the Internet. As I understand it, there’s a difference between soluble fiber and insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber is good for your cholesterol and blood sugar. Insoluble fiber is good for digestion. It’s very likely that any fiber gummies are gonna be soluble fiber. I take the metamucil capsules for insoluble and fiber gummies for soluble.

This has been my nerd rant.

I used to love that dude, too. I also used to go on Reddit though. Thankfully, I’ve outgrown both.
