What's the point in defending against Russia if we're going to be just like Russia?

That makes you no better than Russia, using conflict in order to take away people's rights and instituting a totalitarian surveillance state.

I didn't realise that "Venture Bros" was a TV series and thought you were talking about Silicon Valley tech bros and venture capitalists and was like "sounds about right".

If you really want to be pedantic with your analogies, there's an epidemic among both men and women but men are hit worse due to a preexisting condition.

The person you're talking to is talking about it like a human being.

Word. I'm demisexual and greyromantic. The idea that any guy who isn't dating or may have trouble dating is a fascist is inherently aphobic.

It's not a fair comparison. Someone in poverty will use that million in order to lift themselves out of material poverty. Which means they will pay off debts, buy property, pay college tuition for themselves and/or their descendants, possibly start a business, and a whole bunch of other things I can't think of. That would easily cost half a million. Someone who's already rich will already have all that.

Let's hope at least one EU leader does the right thing and scuppers the "deal".

We should renege on that promise and fund EU alternatives anyway, in secret if necessary.

That's the kind of situation in which you should apply tarrifs. Instead of surrendering, the EU should apply a 50% tarrif on all US cloud services and subsise the growth of European alternatives.

What's stopping AI drones from hallucinating and killing random people.

You're forgetting the part where there are women your age.

 

The bourgeois will rather dismantle Brussels's democracy than allow proletarians to have a modicum of power. We need mass protests and strikes against any attempt at annexation of any part of Brussels by Flanders.
