You say that like it's a defense though.

Yeah they're paying the people who make the product we sell so little that they don't even get enough money in a paycheck to have it be worth sending them a paycheck!!

How? Special back door secret deals for one and only one company is the definition of anticompetitive.

Competition is defined as more than one lol

Edit: I'm special, I am first place! But if you knew it was 1st place of one... I sure hope you think me as noncompetitive....🤣 It's strange to me to think I'm competitive if I have no competitors.

" crypto is mostly something they just hope to resell later to a higher bidder"

Unfortunately this is not true. It was getting used for money laundering, which is not reselling to the highest bidder. The proof is in the fact that they payed the fine.

Otherwise what was the fine for?

Yeah use those "to big to fail' having banks be integral to the system is a definition to first World. Not sure that's the dis you hoped it to be. Haha, you don't have banks too big to be capitalist they have to be socialized....

Not true, true, not true. 1/3 is not very accurate.

The "him" is this the Israeli or the Palestinian? Or both?

"So what's stopping Palestinians from putting pressure on them?"

What would you do if you were the Palestinian in this question. seriously. Hamas is not held an election since 2006 what would you do to put pressure on Hamas while you lived in the Gaza strip?

The answer to your question is lots of stuff is stopping the Palestinians from putting pressure on Hamas.

"existing in your community as solitary confinement." -- Chetzemoka

What a strange take. Isn't this a contradiction? Anyways I just want to point out that this is.... A wrong take. Very strange and very wrong take.

Just know that being social is being human. You seem to forget that at times.

What you call lost is the very definition of human.

Looking for a relationship is not lost it is the most human thing to do.

What is more human than finding another human to procreate with?

Everything else you mention all valuable is secondary to social. The cruelest thing you can do to a human is to put them in solitary confinement.

I will say that unlike the horse and buggymakers or the barrel makers or the candlestick makers who have all lost their jobs I do admit...

None of those are as inherently human as sexuality is.

Capitalism makes a great cell phone. Capitalism is terrible when it takes precedent over humans and people.

Still have stacks of batteries for my V10 and v20. I thought it would be a deal-breaker too but it's not as bad as I thought. The huge battery they put in the v60s really been lasting. I do admit I prefer to wirelessly charge slowly which possibly helps.

I still have my V10 and v20. My v60 is better though. Definitely some trade-offs but I will argue that v60 is better
