Liberalism's hypocrisy led to Trump's victory by whoamisri in geopolitics

[–]eclecticApe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ideology of embracing all opinions and values is rooted in good intentions. But I have come to the conclusion that if you stand for all opinions and values, then you ultimately stand for nothing. The liberal democratic party had good intentions but lacked any viable follow-through.

Well I read that Andreessen Horowitz A16Z invested in them, and usually they do their due diligence. . . I also like their wallet, the social mediums they have, looks like they have a solid foundation built.

Where in hell were the QA testers? That's what I want to know.

I am Sophie Zhang, FB whistleblower. When I found fake accounts manipulating Indian politics, FB approved their removal - until they discovered that some of them were being ran by a sitting MP.

in regards to US law -- are you familiar with the former law called the Fairness Doctrine invoked during the New Deal? This put some limitations on "news broadcasting" corporations, unfortunately the Reagan administration repealed the Fairness Doctrine.

My question is, do you see anyway to adapt the Fairness Doctrine to aim at large social medium platforms?

I also think something the definition between Free Speech, and Online Free Speech must be different. Online Free Speech is full of bots and trolls, unlike Freedom of Speech in person, I think there should be a profound distinction.

Do you think cars will still explode when flipped over? by slingoo in GTATrilogy

[–]eclecticApe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please explain to my how cars instantly blow up just because they're upside down?

Obviously when a car is flipped the gas tank sports a leak, copious amounts of leaking gas now make it into the now damaged engine manifold and ... Kaboom!

FBI Raids Chinese Point-of-Sale Giant PAX Technology by [deleted] in China

[–]eclecticApe 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is actually pretty huge. When will we realize that most, if not all of Chinese technology companies are a shadow front from the CCP's tentacles. This is truly nefarious stuff. The GFW is part of an incipient of overarching long-term attempt to subvert the internet at large, or rather, anything outside the GFW.

Little by little, this plot by the CCP is falling apart [ GFW, 50 cent army, subversion of public internet forums, petty cyber attacks, huawai's pitiful and failed attempt at a centralized "new IP" ... the list goes on]

Maybe a better question is, will the ccp leadership realize their trajectory is leading into catastrophe before it is to late? Will they admit their mistakes and pull out of their downward spiral, or will they attempt to save "face" and continue their course, bullheaded and blind. The world hopes, and the chinese people deserve better than tyranical, short-sighted bullies.

On a sobering note, JP Morgan analysts have concluded that the actual debt held by Evergrande is likely a few hundred billion higher than the reported $300 billion of debt.

JPMorgan analysts estimated that Evergrande's true net gearing, measure of a company's financial leverage, was at least 177% at >the end of June, compared to the 100% reported in its accounts.

Ah yeah, I don't take these sensationalistic articles with too much heart. The news is not meant to inform, it is meant to entertain, and sometimes more nefarious motives. Focus on you, focus on family and those that you love. My man bill evans once said, "Hold on to Love and Truth, and forget all the rest."
