  • This is in preparation for California wildfires.

    He's setting precedent with an exponentially smaller disaster in a red state, as political cover for future denial of relief funds for the much larger Blue State seasonal disasters.

  • Most successful assassin in modern history, maybe all of history?

    He killed Abe for his UC ties, and a short few years later, no more Japanese UC.

    Has any other politically motivated assassination so directly, and spectacularly, achieved it's aims?

  • Oh God. Please don't view this Ivy League institution as a victim.

    Trump is a fascist, but that doesn't make Columbia "good".

    They're just feeling the possibility of a little blowback from what Ivy league institutions and their graduates have collectively done this country. Boo-hoo.

  • Well, yeah.

    Europe is continent sized piece of land. Russian tanks rolling into Moldova is a bit different than Poland, or Germany.

    Different politically, militarily, and strategically.

    Even then, I can't see Putin biting off any more at this particular moment. Time will tell if Trump significantly eases sanctions to a degree that would enable him to speedily recapitialize.

    Of course, I didn't believe he'd actually try and take Kiev, so I'm not going to sit here and cosplay as a Kreminologist.

  • Part of explaining why these policies are bad, means explaining alternative policies, which for Democrats means "means tested", some "undefined consensus policy", or something else equally as idiotic.

    So while I mostly agree with your sentiment, the DNC is structurally incapable of doing what you're suggesting.

    People didn't vote in Trump because the status quo was working, and the DNC won't change, because it's working well enough for their short term interests.

  • Streets gangs are organized, but have largely had their leadership structures dismantled through RICO.

    Most, if not all, of these kids are set/clique banging. Their outbursts of violence tend to be more about bloodfueds, and less protecting their rackets market share, or profits.

  • Google is only useful for local shopping results, and even that is barely true anymore. I can't recall the last time they returned a relevant result for any other type of search query.

    The first half of the page is AI/ads, and the rest is SEO optimized trash.

    Using udm=14 just means the result page has more room for SEO garbage.

  • A long history of military dictatorships, followed by the many flavors of Peronism, is actually how Argentina managed to downgrade themselves from developed economy, to a developing one. Which is also what created the conditions that swept the current government to power.

    I'm not saying the current administration is helping the situation, just that their economic policies have continued a long standing tradition of gross economic mismanagement.
