Honestly, I think Biden supports this unwaveringly because it aligns with US policy to keep the region destabilized.

I mean they helped overthrow the Shah, aided the Taliban in fighting the soviets, invaded Iraq and Kuwait (which led directly to the creation of jihadist state -- ISIS), aided a US-aligned faction in the Syrian civil war, helped put down the 2011 democratic revolutions... there is so much more.

And for what? To keep them from realizing they are all arabs and are sitting on the largest collective reserves of oil in the world...

Evil Empire.

Well... they do hang out in the public torrents of movies, games, shows, etc.

That's how they get IP addresses and have their bots send DMCA notices.

I lived in a place that cost 800$ a month for a room in the bay area and I was taking home more than 60% of my income working full time.

It's doable, and it doesn't mean only rich people aren't rent burdened...

In what way does capitalism "dampen" selfishness?

I read an article that China, while yes they are the outspending US in fusion research, also have exponentially more PhD's working on the research as well.

Just get a PC? Parts prices are low right now and they are far more useful than a console that has a "planned expiration" every 5-10 years.

But it's also hard to know what contemporary economists are arguing without reading those foundational writers

she strikes me as the sort of person who listens to constructive feedback.> Is there a particular event or thing I can look up that she did to give you that impression?

At least one delivery per day...

Such a great game regardless! Romulus took some cues from the game and it definitely shows.

Or giant megacorporations each hire 200,000+ of them to create products for the non-magic folk to consume.

After a few decades, the idea of being a wizard is synonymous with working 8+ hours a day on magic that no wizard really wants and there is so little new spells and magic being created in the world that everyone wishes there wasn't any.

Then leaks come out that the products these megacorporations create have been slowly killing the planet and they've known for decades. But since they have so much power and money, nothing can stop them until the world dies.
