What is neoliberalism, and why should you care?

theguardian.com/books/2016/aprโ€ฆ

The irony of a philosophy that was originally created to prevent fascism, instead directly causing fascism, is extreme. This article is almost a decade old, and yet already draws the connection that led us down this hateful path.

Me: Can we just take a moment to bow our heads and give thanks for what a great lyricist Billy Joel is? Can the feller pen a story or what? Then there's the actual melody which he writes too <mind blown>.
We aren't getting a 'Piano Man' out of anybody in today's music. It's a creative rip-off.

Former Biden genocide-deniers win PR contracts for Israeli state

Mercenary firm that fired on starving Palestinians also run by former Biden staffers

Investigative journalism by All-Source Intelligence and the Grayzone has exposed how former staffers for ex-US president Joe Biden, notorious for denying Israelโ€™s genocide, are now making hay as contractors for the genocidal regime while Israel continues to starve and slaughter Palestinian civilians and ...

The only reason why people are talking about Epstein/Israel, is because the elites want you to, they're the ones giving it the spotlight and providing all the drama.

And no, the goal isn't to distract you from something else they're doing, they don't need to distract you when you already have porn, democracy and religion.

The goal is to make "antisemitism" mainstream, Trump will also eventually turn on Israel.
This will justify sending the Jews back to the safety of Israel, before WW3 starts.

in reply to Based_Accelerationist

@cjd Regardless, I think it's important to warn everyone about the final part of the plan, which has Jews leaving the West. They're currently building Iron Domes in Europe and the US, which will likely be used to convince people they're at war with Russia/Iran. Putin and Brics are 100% owned by Jews and all the pieces of the puzzle point towards a major conflict.
But the elites need to prevent Jews from being annihilated alongside the goyim. And they all say Jews will be hated before WW3 begins.

#canada #law #vs #ebay

Since July 1, 2022, eBay has been automatically collecting taxes on all sales made to Canadian buyers, regardless of the sellerโ€™s tax status. This measure has particularly worried occasional sellers, such as those selling items like hockey cards to fund their hobby, who, with an annual income under $30,000, were previously exempt from this obligation. Many have expressed frustration over the increased administrative complexity and new tax burdens imposed by this regulation.

If we're honest with ourselves--and no one with formal power has the ability to be honest with themselves-- Hamas has achieved its objective of showing the illegitimacy of the state of Israel, while Israel has completely failed in its objective of killing and expelling all Palestinian people.

(Eliminating Hamas is of course not Israel's real goal, although that's what they pretend)

in reply to Aaron

If we had #FreedomOfExpression in America, it's possible that we could have prevented the suicide of empire, but because we don't, because popular voices have been either too cowardly or misinformed to actually critique the fact that nation states kept falling into the known traps set by these insurgents, well, those traps worked. Most people have no idea why bin Laden planned 9/11. Do you?

Rant about zsh and fish!!!
In bash this command

"scp name@1.0.1.1:sequences/*.html ."

will wildcard all files ending in .html from the folder and transfer them, but in zsh and fish this causes an error. So you need to use

"scp name@1.0.1.1:sequences/'*.html' ."

with quotes to trigger wildcard globbing when in bash they would render * as a string literal. Stupid!!!!!!!
