    Exactly! This is intentional. They are conflating and confuscating the issues in order that business can carry on as usual.

    Who is Gerd? Gastroesophageal reflux, GERD or just reflux, happens when what is inside your stomach — stomach acid, food or other contents — backs up out of the stomach into the esophagus and possibly all the way into your throat and mouth.

    When that acid touches your esophagus it can cause a burning feeling in your chest or neck, known as heartburn.

    Most of us will have occasional heartburn, but when your symptoms are frequent and bad
    enough to impact your sense of well-being, it could be GERD.

    While GERD is not life threatening, it can greatly lower your quality of life by impacting your
    daily activities, your sleep and what you are able to eat.

    If symptoms don’t go away or get worse after a few weeks, talk to a gastroenterologist. You may
    need some tests to rule out other health issues.

    This thread honestly does track how hard right this crowd has shifted, in real time since COVID has happened. It's kind of a fun case study that demonstrates how the working class in America doesn't understand itself to be a social class. The prevelance of anti-communism (especially by people who often can't clearly define socialism or communism) is a tell that the propaganda has worked on a lot of these folks. It's pretty disheartening, but I think the ever-mounting contradictions in our economy and society will eventually help my fellow proles see through all this right-wing nonsense about individualism and the free market. Probably not anyone in this space, but hey, happened to me. Roast away, baby.
    Everyone who thinks communism is a bad idea is a misogynist, racist, fascist. Got it. Why are you LARPing as a cartoonish version of ANTIFA just to troll?

I'm guessing it was bought by some propaganda group that has some guy with a terminal with hundreds of the damn things copy pasting across multiple forums.
    I remember seeing a reddit account of mine a few years back for $50.
    You were worth $50 on that site?
    Is that good?

    Theoretically the price should fall as these banks/financial institutions must liquidate their crypto.
    However, I believe they have been regularly selling crypto they do not own (similar to the gold/metals market manipulation); as they unwind their positions, supply constrains, resulting in price increases.

    It then attempted to shift the subject to generalizations around a different topic.
    That is bot behaviour or a special kind of autism.

    So when the truth doesn't fit the narrative. Shut down the study.

    I guess the bigger question is, does this matter at all if the banking system needs to bail itself out of collapsing again?
    The Green Deal is a set of legislation, some parts of which are supposed to instruct member states on what kind of legislation to pass, but most of it has to do with the budget and “investment” subsidies funded by the budget. The subsidy mechanism is super arcane and complicated, but I will give you a rough summary.

    According to EU legislation, government subsidy of private business is forbidden, other than through EU wide funds, called structural and investment funds. The Commission legislates it’s own thing (like the Green Deal), then individual member states have to write up their own programs depending on the type of fund and have them approved by the Commission, then they implement the programs and the Commission pretends to oversee everything. Each member state is allocated a certain amount per program per capital key. There is no getting in and out per se, because everything is legislated in the core documents, like the EU contract and stuff. You sign up for the whole thing by being a member state. You could theoretically not use the subsidy mechanism, but then the oligarchs in your country would not be able to rob the public as well as they are with the mechanism.

    Is this any clearer now? You will not get anywhere in understanding this by reading American right wingers, they simply have no idea the level of corruption we are dealing with here, so they abstract everything into buzzwords.

    Jovan I am pretty sure you EU serfs have it bad in the same way as us American tax serfs:

    [Stage 1]
    1. Legitimate social "problem" exists
    2. Bureaucrats and NGOs drool with delightful hunger at the program$ that could be created to "fix" the "problem"
    3. These $alivating parties lobby politicians to get these grant programs and budget allocations approved
    (How step 2 is so effective at instituting step 3 I am not so sure of)

    [Stage 2]
    4. The bureaucrats and NGOs pontificate and hypothesize as they even employ a new set of busybody do-nothings, grant writers, to gloriously describe the utopian solutions THEIR grant proposal will generate as they "fix" the "problem."
    5. The "problem" never gets "fixed," for a whole host of reasons, probably encompassed well by the [hilarious; thank you!] "American right wing buzzwords" that you refer to.
    6. Stage 1, steps 1-3, get repeated, but the grant$ continue to fund the programs from the previous iteration of Stage 2, and these program$ never go away, since the Bureaucrats and NGOs are very good at survival and self-preservation and have a whole host of emotional, lobbying, and political capital tools at their disposal (there go those buzzwords again!) to ensure that the grant$ get renewed or replaced with analogues.


    I really didn't want to get involved in this side topic, but:

    1. The EU is in no way more exceptional than the States in wasting grant money on useless, utopian, effect-focused rather than root-cause-addressing, solutions to problems.
    2. With the discussion of oligarchs you're making the Grants Game sound sexier and more complicated/evil than it really is.
    3. The corruption part is an overstretch; it's just good ol' bureaucratic self-preservation and big-government bloat at its best.


    It's just that I saw a lot of this grant-gaming as it related to programs to "help" veterans while I was mentally moonlighting in higher Ed administration. Forget to add above that you've got the added factor of midwit administrators/bureaucrats (many holding Masters' or PhDs!), fearful of job insecurity, overstating their importance and trying to describe increasingly beautiful, complicated, and socially utopian solutions to these simple "problems."
    I imagine the Green grant$ game in the EU is very similar, though operationally it may play out differently. Please correct me if I'm wrong so we semi-capitalist Americans can understand how much worse our bureaucracy can still become, in order to reach the storied heights of EU inefficiency and bloat.

    And for those watching along at home, Stages 1 and 2 above, of the Grant Gaming System of complicated $olutions to simple "problems," are probably another concrete example of why Nothing Ever Changes.

    I get it a little bit better now. It's probably the same mechanism that's always been in place but getting bigger in scale and intensity, or mabye they're just running out of "crises" to "solve" before having to burn it all to the ground.

    On another not so different front:

    Peterson really knows what to focus on, as I'm focusing on that young lady who gives me hope and other feelings.
    Yngvi, you'll like this one.

    The EU is fucking itself so bad I hope somebody bombs it into oblivion so that rationality and proper market rules can take its place.
    The risk for mass starvation seems to be getting more and more real. Shortage of resources and labour, mass immigration, artifically high prices, subsidies, inflation, social disruption. How can this NOT turn into a catastrophy with millions of people dead? Those farmers need to stop protesting peacefully as their political "leaders" figure out how to get rid of them. They just gotta hang one of them upside down and things would turn around pretty quickly. Same thing for canadians or americans. Would somebody just put down Biden out of his misery already? What are you waiting for? Trump? You got guns too.
    All it takes is one guy. You got psychos shooting up school, and there is not ONE guy who has the balls to take a shot at someone? Seems unlikely

    I thought this might be about his (alleged) time as a lawyer at Guantanamo.

    I laughed instead - DeSantis and your mom

    Probably what a lot of people will use AI for.
