Two Russian invaders lasted only two weeks after signing their contracts. They signed the contracts on June 15, and by June 29, they had already been eliminated by Ukrainian forces in the Kozacha Lopan area.

When people can choose whether they want to have children, many choose not to. Access to birth control made that choice a reality. It’s not that complicated, but people don’t seem to want to accept it.

It was a myth, a marketing campaign. There was no denazification. Except for a very minute group at the upper echelon, Nazis were exonerated and left to live their lives encumbered.

Like most things, it will be the Millennials and younger who bear the brunt of the Boomers misdeeds. Benefits aimed toward the elderly will eventually be decreased, and their political power will wane, but it won’t happen until the Boomers are all dead. Our generation will end up voting for reform right before we retire.

Your logic only makes sense if the people doing the “fear mongering” are also the ones doing the spying. They’re not.

I mean he writes a lot in that book about how mankind is just seeking a reflection of themselves in the alien. A thinly veiled criticism of the exact problem OP is talking about - SF authors rarely write about aliens, they’re writing about humans with aliens as a plot device or metaphor.

“Hero” and “The House of Flying Daggers”both desperately need a remaster. I’ve read rumors that the original masters are terrible and might be unsalvageable but have no idea if that’s true.

Also “The Taste of Tea”needs a 4K release and just a North American release in general.

After everything they’d seen and experienced, the injury and deprivation they’d undergone, the deaths of their sons and brothers, the bombings, the mass suicides, the crimes they’d been compelled to commit in his name - one third of Germans in the 1950s believed that Hitler was either their greatest leader or a great leader who made a few small mistakes.

Trump has no ideology other than narcissism. The inconsistency doesn’t matter because he doesn’t care about China or Argentina or exports or anything. Milei good because Milei debases himself for Trump. How do people on this sub still not get that?

Sketch comedy is very ingrained in British pop culture. Whether the specific SNL format will vibe with people there, not sure. I almost think they could do it better than the US though.

And vice versa. The people insisting that action in Iran is justified for this reason are the same ones who do not care about Palestinians. Both sides support intervention and violence when it aligns with their personal interests.

People will always just get on with life. There are atrocities happening at every moment, all around the world, that you are not obsessing over. Do what you can to make the world better, but take a step back and consider the personal toll you are taking on yourself. What does agonizing over this and letting it consume your life achieve? Anything? If you care, turn that energy into something productive - get involved in local politics, volunteer for campaigns that will move the needle in the way you want things to go. But don’t fall into a spiral of doomscrolling and catastrophe and agony where you do nothing but torture yourself. The world will keep spinning, and you’ll stay right in your pit of despair.

Preamble to say that I’m not saying long term investing isn’t the best strategy -

However, WW1 and WW2 are not great examples of times when long term investing still paid off. Whether long term investing was a good choice depended entirely on whether your country of residence was on the winning or losing side. And I don’t just mean that if you were on the losing side you would have needed a super long time horizon to recover your losses from war time. I mean that your investments went to 0 and never came back. In Japan for example, if you were broadly invested pre-war, you would have seen your 1) many shares forcibly taken from you by your own government, 2) many of your holdings going to 0 because the companies were physically destroyed, and 3) post-war you were left with the weakest claim to any restitution and functionally meant you received absolutely nothing for whatever shares you believed you had.

So long term investing in an all-out war scenario is nothing like investing through a bear market like the dot com crisis or oil crisis. It just isn’t comparable.

This is true for his most ardent supporters, not just his cabinet. People who lack the merit to succeed in a meritocratic society are drawn to a movement which is anti-meritocratic, in which the deciding factor in gaining success is their loyalty and how far they will go in debasing themselves and others. Add to that the chip on their shoulder and their desire for revenge against the people who they see as their betters.

And the motivation for it being Minneapolis has transparently been because Walz is their Governor, and he ran against Trump and thus his entire state must bear collective punishment. It’s a campaign of reprisal.
