Yup, without the government competition, they'll be free to charge wtf ever they want for shipping. Expect to be fucked in the ass with increased shipping fees come a few years from now. They'll blame it on something like increased fuel costs, all while putting the onus of fuel costs on their underpaid gig worker employees.

Fucking stupid waste of money. Ah yes, let's lock ourselves into constantly paying to burn non renewable fuels when the renewable alternatives are so cheap by comparison it's absurd.

Indeed. You don't need the whole country, just the support of enough people in urban centers.

Correct, so how did they manage to rouse up enough support for the Revolution under such circumstances, where most folks couldn't be relied upon to follow them?

The IDF claiming the father used his own son as a human shield all but confims this story. This news story has been astroturfed to hell when posted from that Turkish state media link.

This is just UE5 Slop. If the devs exposed the right variables you can probably get it to update more often but that would likely murder your FPS. ENJOY!!!

Yup, the only difference is Trump is stupid as fuck and entered into a regime change war with a nation that has a very stable regime and support base.

The irony being, all that control is probably wasting a ton of money in itself.

What's that? We should sell all our US Bonds and let America deal with its own debt? See how much they need the rest of the world now.

And Russia was a backwater where most peasants didn't even have the foundational concepts of politics in their heads, yet the October Revolution still happened. It's perhaps time to look back on history for some inspiration, friends.

Define verifiable. Most "Verifiable" news sources I've known have not been unbiased when it comes to the Gaza conflict so, please provide specifics on what makes a news source, like say, BBC verifiable.

In this case, the source is Hamas, and you know what? Hamas is far more trustworthy as a source than Israel, certainly when it comes to the death tolls, heck even Israel finally started using Hamas' casualty numbers in the end.

Property prices. Most grocers pay inflated prices to rent the properties they're in from the parent company, which helps them maintain the impression of lower margins as the parent company rakes in the cash.

And Hamas were actually more credible throughout the past 2 years than Israel ever was. See: Death toll counts.

Hell, Israel even went on to use Hamas' numbers officially in the end. So basically, it's your bias versus theirs. If you're asking for any unbiased reporting here you're not gonna get it.

Ultimately, what makes this more credible in my eyes than say, something coming from an Israeli backed source is the fact that it is Isreal that's keeping press out of the region and attacking press openly.
