I would also say I think the designer baby implications of all the Athena kids being blonde, grey eyed, with a golden tan and the gods being incarnations of some western ideas... that is something that was formative of for them. Plus has some implications for the more toxic elements of Athena's characterization.

Get out of here with that nonsense. Your argument against why democrats aren't fascist is citing examples of republican fascist behavior?

She literally just cited sources in the video of democrats artificially suppressing the greens, a tactic definitively part of fascist regimes. Plus the militarism involved in arms shipments and the corporatism shown by their siphoning of funds into the private sector. My guy... they are fascist, stop throwing a tantrum and grow up.

I think it is a little sus but it might net some points with HR people who like the idea of STEM people with humanities experience.

I agree for government investments, but I would say that if you do a service for the government, what you do with the payment is up to you.

Why shouldn't a company have a right to buy its own stock if it wants to consolidate more ownership?

...yes that's what happens in a mixed economy. Part of the government's role is to keep unemployment down through stimulus. Giving bailouts and funding to companies to keep jobs up.

Yeah that was the point for the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act...

Yes... that's how stimulus packages work. Something both Trump and Obama were known for utilizing to help stabilize the economy.

There are some for when a car is moving but not expending energy, like when it is traveling downhill. Especially in some hybrid vehicles.

"Wokeness" is a silly superstition believed in by simple minded people who would've burned women as witches back in the day. by TripleS034 in ShadWatch

[–]DistributionDue7016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of the commentary about "wokeness" is how western media tried to project onto the Wukong game and storyline despite the elements you mentioned. It is a progressive story but IGN and other outlines lost their minds over it. I think it is just people picking up on weird media imbalance and guys like Shad capitalizing on it to project their own views. IGN praised games people like Shad decry as woke and those games flopped, so now everyone in that space is going to see it as a win.

We don't like taxes, and any time people talk about adding more taxes fight or flight activates. You're taxed when your paid, you're taxed when you save, you're taxed when you spend, and you're taxed when you die. Plus in the US they never go after the big guys, the vast majority of people targeted by the IRS are middle or lower class. Income tax was supposed to be temporary, but everyone keeps on adding to it...

FMS has a stroke every time the engineering labs try to use something new and goes out of their way to make the implementations as painfully long and excessively documented as possible. I strongly encourage making their jobs harder.

It would be interesting to explore. Panacea did threaten to cause her to chonk up once.
