  • Is trump going to do anything different though?

    Former President Donald Trump declared Tuesday that Israel must “finish the problem” in its war against Hamas

    If the above is true, I don't know why anyone would bring his up. It's like choosing between two seats on a bus. One has broken glass on it, the other has broken glass and is on fire.

  • European Union imposes tariffs on Chinese EVs
  • It's an interesting problem.

    Does the EU let Chinese vehicles in, allow the reduction of EU manufacturing, reducing jobs available, possibly imposing further poverty on the poor, and possibly to the point where they can't afford the Chinese vehicles anyway?

    Does the EU add taxes to Chinese vehicles, making them less available to the poor, but possibly protecting jobs within the EU? Perhaps whilst trying to engage EU automakers to make more EVs?

    Does the EU add taxes to Chinese vehicles, without pushing the change to EVs, and just not really manage this situation well?

    My money is on aspirations for option 2, but in reality option 3.

  • Philly DA forced to increase security after antisemitic threats and doxxing from Elon's followers
  • Elons character arc from a PR point of view is really interesting.

    At one point I bet many of his current followers were loudly critical of him for Tesla disrupting the ICE vehicle industry. At that point he was seen as much more progressive.

    But his mask has now been removed to show the opportunistic business man he is with very little moral standards. Becoming the enemy of many that had previously fallen for his PR, including me.

    In my head he really seems like a comic book character.

  • I I Knew Wish Still You
  • I think the cringe here is more than somebody would have this in their window XD

    But I get it- teenagers going to teenager or something like that.

    Maybe there's some other context too, but from just tris pic... Cringe.

  • Tory MP launches plan to 'make Britain vaguely civilised again' - BBC News
  • Whilst these are all problems that it would be great to solve, I feel the vast majority of the public want to see politicians proposing ways to deal with more significant issues.

    To me, this sounds like a list of things they feel the older generation dislikes strongly. They want to retain that base as much as possible so they'll put out statements like this ones without having, I suspect, much desire to follow through if and when they do have some power.

    But I'm happy to be proven wrong on that.

  • Chris Kaba's family vow they 'won't be silenced' after Met officer who shot him cleared of murder
  • My comment specifically states that killing him wasn't the optimal solution here, so I can't see how that's your intrepretation of it.

    That's my interpretation of it because you're basically saying that because he was breaking the law (maybe you're saying that it's because he was breaking specific laws), it's justified that he was shot and killed.

    Whether you want to pussyfoot around the distinction between him deserving it and it being justified is beside the point from my perspective because I don't believe he did deserve it or that it was justified.

    Seems like we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one.

  • Anon is sick
  • Literally everyone acts like im some sort of evil disgusting monster and stays as far away from me as possible

    The bit anon left out is that this is how everyone treats him everyday, sick or not.

  • Chris Kaba's family vow they 'won't be silenced' after Met officer who shot him cleared of murder
  • Neither the article, or anything mentioned in these comments is claiming the victim's 'innocence'. They are however making the point that EVEN if you do all of those things you shouldn't expect to be shot and killed.

    Your comment sounds equivalent of claiming girls that dress provocatively deserve to be raped. It just isn't the point. The point is that he should not have been killed.

  • The future is now
  • I like it as a starting point to a subject I'm going to research. It seems to have mostly the right terminology and a rough idea of what those mean. This helps me to then make more accurate searches on the subject matter.

  • The future is now
  • Jesus Christ to all the hypotheticals listed here.

    Not a judgement on you, friend. You've put forward some really good scenarios here and if I'm reading you right you're kinda getting at how crazy all of this sounds XD

  • Weight loss jabs for unemployed not dystopian, says Wes Streeting
  • I hear you. But this isn't necessarily one or the other. I think it's beneficial to have these types of product available for those who have already become obese, whilst leglistating the food that people are pushed towards eating by the system.

    I'm not saying that the government will necessarily do both, but that it's not an issue with this study that the food available isn't being managed.

  • European auto giants launch a flurry of cheaper electric vehicles — taking the fight to China
  • Hasn't musk been losing traction in this game for a while now anyway? My understanding is that Tesla's whole initial selling point was that they disrupted the market and made electric vehicles something that people would want to buy, whilst the other automakers were 'technically' making EVs but making them look awful to keep the fuel industry alive.

    Other automakers have woken up to the demand now and are making nice EVs. Unless Tesla can do something innovative that actually works consistently they're probably going to phase out.

  • My random thoughts 3 months before I turn 18
  • Yeah mixture of both, wouldn't you agree?

    Sometimes you can get far by just being lucky.

    Sometimes you can get far by just working hard.

    You're most likely to get far by working hard and being lucky.

    You can still not get anywhere even when you work hard.


    Strong economies create more opportunities which means your luck factor doesn't have to be as high.

  • repeated posts

    Is anyone else noticing a lot of repeated posts in their feeds recently?

    Almost each time I go through my subscribed, local, or all feeds I am now seeing the same post from the same community multiple times.

    I'm using 'last 6 hours' as a filter if that helps.

    I hope articles like this about the Tories keep up throughout labours time in power so people don't forget on the next GE.
