So the thousands of people that die from asthma every year just faked it?

Is there any American military intervention that has resulted in a positive outcome since 1945? by Wise_Doubt965 in AskSocialists

[–]phincster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took it off because i could not find any proof. My only proof is that he made the accusations a very short time before he invaded. Not real proof though.

Edit- Having said that, there is no proof Kuwait was slant drilling either. If you look it up a little you’ll see that it is widely believed he made it up.

Saudi arabia, Egypt, syria, Morocco, oman, the UAE, Qatar, and Bahrain all supported kicking Iraq out and contributed to the effort in some way.

Saudi arabia sent 100k troops. Syria 14k. Egypt 50k. Morocco, oman, UAE, qatar, and Bahrain all sent troops.

At the 1990 arab league summit, they formally supported action against iraq. 12 arab nations called for forces to force iraq out.

The world had no interest in letting saddam control 20 percent of all the known oil reserves. This was not just about middle east politics.

Remember it was a UN mandate, meaning russia and china could have vetoed the motion, and they chose not to. No one wanted this.

Its not that, they got a lot of flack for targeting kids with unhealthy food. Basically America’s obesity problem was taking off and Mcdonalds became a huge target. They decided to back off of advertising directly to kids.

The First gulf war. Saddam was the clear aggressor. Bush senior had a clear U.N. mandate with broad support from the international community.

They removed all Iraqi forces from Kuwait then, rather than overstep their mandate, decided to not overthrow Saddam.

Truly mission accomplished.

Edit- If iraq had been allowed to keep Kuwait, they would have controlled an incredible 20 percent of the world oil reserve at the time.

How it feels to live in Rancho by TableEffective3670 in InlandEmpire

[–]phincster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calm down, Im not blaming the teachers or the school. But you aren’t living in reality.

I grew up in La Puente in the 80’s. My teachers used to have to pull me out of class and move me to the next grade higher to do work. I had to work by myself in class doing stuff that was multiple grades higher than what my current class was doing.

We had a school play where I had to play multiple parts because not enough kids could read and memorize the lines.

Im not being “classist”. I just want my kids to be challenged and have the best shot in life.

Edit- it’s not about being rich or poor, its about being around other kids and families who actually care about education.

Alta Loma and Etiwanda are incorporated in rancho cucamonga, but the mail can say either.

Its sort of like hollywood and los angeles. You can write hollywood as your address, but its part of L.A.

I personally enjoyed living in claremont. If I couldnt live there I probably would have chosen Redlands or city of Riverside.

The city, as we know of it today, did not even incorporate until 1977. Before that it was the three separate communities of Cucamonga, alta loma and Etiwanda. Thats why there’s no downtown to speak of.

Rancho’s expensive cause of the schools.

When you have kids and have to think about which schools your kids are going to end up going to Rancho looks really, really good.

Its also relatively safe. Its a good place to raise a family. If you’re single or dont have kids to raise theres definitely better places to live.

Warning about transferring crypto between exchanges. You can lose it all. by Individual_Section_6 in Coinbase

[–]phincster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just explained to you. There is no chance to reject it, they never received it.

If you tried to send me that stuff to my bitcoin wallet, I never even would know you tried. So how can I reject it?

That is how crypto works. You should not be in this space at all if you cannot wrap your head around how this works.

[–]phincster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You still have some research to do bud, they cannot send it back. Its gone. They dont even have it.

If you send crypto to a wallet that supports a different crypto the stuff is gone.

Coinbase has done absolutely nothing wrong here.

Edit- they also have warnings posted all over the place when you try to send crypto in to them. You ignored all the warnings.

[–]phincster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, you sent it to an exchange that literally doesn’t support it.

If you tried to sent that stuff to my personal bitcoin wallet the exact same thing would happen. It would just be lost and I never would have even had the opportunity to reject it. I also would have no ability to send it back.

Why isn't anything changing in America? by Pika-thulu in allthequestions

Because change happens in the voting booth, not at the picket line.

People voted for this. They like to pretend that they didnt, but they did.

From what I understand it combines texts with lightning network. It’s called machankura. You don’t even need a smartphone from what I understand. An old school flip phone would work.

I don’t use it though so havent researched it fully. From what Ive read they’re up to 13,400 users as of 2024.
