They used this to defend slavery: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curse_of_Ham and still use it to defend racism.
I think you'll be surprised what you can twist logic into if you really want to.

And 73 virgins didn't come from the Qur'an, it came from some Imam who wanted political power so he sold his followers as soldiers to as rising potential Caliph.
Ignorant people rewrite their religion to match their personal views, in fact the bible was completely rewritten by Constantine to support the Roman empire and convince Christians that it was truly Christian to fight and die for him.
I mean, also it was a time when we didn't have any science at all, so believing magical spirits and all powerful invisible sky-men control the world are get angry when you masturbate is just as reasonable as the germ theory of disease and the laws of thermodynamics.
But it's like having an imaginary friend: Fine when you're a child, but after a while, you might just have psychiatric issues.
Nobody wants it, they just want brighter lights for themselves to compensate for being blinded by the brighter lights of others, but actually to retaliate, nobody can have brighter brights than me!
We'd need regulations for this, which we'd never get, especially after the Chevron doctrine was reversed.
They're Christian Nationalists who believe the bible must be taken literally!
Therefore they are strictly pro-life (before birth), they believe he who has sin must cast the first stone, and those moneylenders must be worshipped as the job-creators they are!
Poles: "Don't invite them over for beer..."
Their joint venture with Ukraine is laying down new submarine hulls left and right!
Yeah, so we're still what, 10k behind China this year?
Hello.
As someone who's in the space and has been around Qcomm and their deals before.
It won't happen.
They will flirt like you can't imagine, they will propose, make offers, etc.
But closing the deal? No.
They are very smart, and Intel is too big for them to dismantle and exploit with value.
Their interest is not in Intel belonging to them, but in a large, Intel shaped hole in the market that they can attack, and their discussions are more likely about Intel's roadmaps so they can understand how they could best exploit Intel's fall.
They are unlikely to even hire some of Intel's spoils, maybe a few strategic VPs, but... they're just smart and ruthless and Intel is the dregs and bloated nowl.
The only way they'd do it is if the government sweetened it such that Intel was basically free, and they could fire as many as they want in a reasonable period, basically letting them own Intel without any cost at all. That is possible depending on how desperate the government is to prevent their fall, but I don't think anyone can make the right promises in time.
There's a lot of pressure for better performing works right now, money is tight as hell, and amc is honestly known for surprisingly great works like breaking bad.
Cancel one and steer the money towards something that will be a more likely winner, it's easier to sell to the board. You're both tightening your belt and increasing quality.
Oh, my bad. That makes perfect sense and I have no objections for purely thermal storage.
It said steam to customer, my brain filled that in with turbine.
We really need them for boomers, for the world's sake.
