Moving military funds into food aid would be extra effective considering that world hunger is largely created by military spending.

If only there was some way we could have known he wasn’t a good guy. Like if, for example, he had famously said it’s good for the economy to poison poor people. Or if he had resigned in disgrace as president of the nation’s university top university after making bigoted comments and involvement in a case of fraud. Or spearheaded the deregulation of the finance industry that directly led to the housing crisis. Just hypothetically, if someone had done all those things, no sane person would invite them to be on one of the most important and powerful corporate boards.
Right?

Climate change is going to force migration from certain areas. Whether that happens through a planned, humanitarian process or through crushing poverty enacted by insurance markets is up to us.


Yeah this is a tricky one. Modern gold standards are to use cameras to recognize pedestrians and cyclists to give them intersection priority. This is a big benefit if designed properly but video data this way poses a huge privacy/surveillance risk.
I suppose maybe there would be a way to process the footage locally and delete it as soon as it’s no longer needed but that’s going to require a lot of oversight from the community to confirm.


Why are all these Nazi shitheads joining Lemmy all the sudden? Same asshole or what?
Fuck off. No one wants to hear your disgusting bullshit here.


Always seems to work so far!


Shit I think you’re right.


Thanks for verifying. I feel like I’ve become paranoid nowadays.


Some democrats might care, although I feel like Clinton’s power has really fallen off so who knows.


Fuck war, and fuck Donald Trump.


Is that AI? Trump looks very unlike himself. And what hat is that?


I think there is a cause here most people don’t see. Voters often assume women will be more left or more compassionate, regardless of their actual opinions or policies. Because of this, to appeal to the median voter, female politicians often need to go further right, either intentionally or unintentionally, to compensate. Alternatively, this stereotype might allow them to get away with more of this behavior if that is their real personality/ideology.


Pretty week case laid out here. While I wouldn’t be surprised by CIA involvement, they present essentially zero evidence of such…


This saga makes it clear that all anti-terrorism laws need to be repealed.


Raped with a fucking knife… I’m not sure why so few outlets choose to report that fun little detail.


I mean for people without their head in the sand, Trump already publicly confirmed this years ago.


I’d say both, colonialism is sort of a subtype of imperialism where the conquered territories get settled by the ruling people. Russia has engaged in this for a long time.


Peak America moment. No matter who you are, you should have the right to get paid to violate the civil liberties of your neighbors.


What I meant was, what is the mechanism that supposedly connects facial features to job performance?
Yeah this kinda BS happens all the fucking time. Lotta people get screwed by the so-called justice system and few people other than the victims and their families even know it.
