jfc it's like they only have one mold & they just keep cranking out barely differentiated copies. | 2Expressive |
yeah but for some reason republicans love the kennedy’s. remember when they all went to az a few years ago because jfk was supposed to be resurrected and save the country? and they believe what that grasshopper eating lunatic rfk jr says too. let them bring a kennedy in. it might be what it takes to move the obama voters who voted for trump back towards the middle. | 1Argumentative |
referencing mahathir mohammed and el-sisi in egypt is interesting. mahathir spent 25 years as malaysia prime minister, egyptian president is in his 12th year. president tinubu is just barely in his 3rd year and all the indicators of his reform has not only been positive, but it has also set the country on the proper trajectory. | 1Argumentative |

it is time to use and strengthen our laws, rules and institutions it is the only faceless authority that can keep nigerians in check. brilliant individuals will come and go and the bad behaviour will start all over again. no one should be bigger than our laws that governs our daily living. build a proper maximus prison once the bad elements are taken out of the society that corruption from their voices and finances will end. gen musa is a gift to nigeria if only others can be like him. | 1Argumentative |

some good news on this front, after receiving a lot of pressure the trump admin is backtracking on firing the seasonal employees: [URL] ([URL] verdict is still out on whether they'll rehire the full time probationary employees who were fired. according to the la times the parks service is "arguably the most popular government agency" (post office also comes close) | 3Informational |
spot on andrew well said. | 2Expressive |
right. i still don’t think your original contention that for-profit systems are, in general, orders of magnitude better than socialized ones is accurate, but i do concede that your particular situation seems pretty bad.edit: just checked nhs too, most recent month had ~3% of mris waitlisted more than 13 weeks, so pretty similar in that european country as well. | 1Argumentative |

> my impression was that nyc had its own budget, paid for by its own taxes.if those who claimed they would leave nyc for florida (etc.) make good on their promises nyc will see a significant drop in tax revenues while the expenditures will skyrocket due to mamdani's free-stuff policies. they can try to increase taxes which will lead to more net tax payers leaving the city. of course it remains to be seen whether all those who said they would leave - up to a million people according to the legacy media - end up doing so but if this comes to pass those free buses might not end up happening after all. he'll probably blame it on the exodus and wash his hands clean off his campaign promises. | 1Argumentative |

trump taps 'manifestly unqualified' peter thiel protégé as acting cdc director after rfk's purge ([url] . a health researcher for public citizen said trump's interim cdc director has "no medical or public health background and extremist libertarian views." ... "o'neill would be in a prime position to ensure favorable outcomes for several medical industry startups he's been financially linked to that have direct business before hhs and the cdc," said accountable.us executive director tony carrk. "how can american patients be sure that proper vetting of these companies would take place on o'neill's watch and that public health will be a higher priority over the profits of his former clients?" | 3Informational |

> you can have outsized impact by participating in democracy.that's exactly my point, the normal mode of "participating" in democracy is usually called voting, which, individually, in most elections, does nothing. only in aggregate does a vote matter, there's not been an election decided by a single vote in my lifetime, that i'm aware of anyway. so in reality, to effectively participate in democracy at minimum requires doing something as an individual that causes more than just your vote to happen for the candidate you want. door knocking or calls for example.so just saying "participating" isn't enough because many people just interpret that as voting, which is an act with no individual impact.i'm interested in actions individuals can take that have actual impact, and are thus individually empowering. i believe liberal democracy has made nations of sleepwalkers and the result is becoming apparent in the 21st century as governments seem to act more and more against the will of the people. | 1Argumentative |

trump is a complicated-bad subject. it's required to have a realist position on him: he has a feral sense of populism --- it is malignant long term --- he is very good at social media is as you well explained. there is a sense in which trump has more street smarts, and frankly, was more willing to go to the mat. that's easier when you dont care about anything except for winning. again, ultimately not good for the us ... but short term good for maga.as to what to do about it: i feel like we need now in politics what some of the enlightenment movement emphasized then: real, rational, substance. we have got to get to place where pretty boys talking bs rhetoric on tv is toxic. having a talking point for complex subjects isn't good enough anymore.we want results: a 10 year fiscal plan so debt doesn't swamp the federal budget; operational control of the border with immigration allowed; equal justice under the law including corporations and connected people. i want more americans asking congress: where's the beef?right now congress are not statesmen; they'll have to have to be told by the electorate to do better at running the country. they simply won't do it without that pressure. most people are +/- 20% of center. we have more in common and we're in larger numbers: forget political parties; we want the fundamentals handled. | 1Argumentative |
my point being- while it is important, everyone has a threshold to how much of the real world they can accept in their ttrpg escapism. if they didn't, we wouldn't need x-cards and other such safety tools in the first place. | 1Argumentative |

"the cited countries, for example, are faltering in myriad ways"... as if higher education is somehow to blame, or conceivably capable of preventing countries from having any problems? your comment provides not a shred of evidence that "overeducation" is even connected to said problems, let alone the "elephant". respectfully, the burden's on you there. | 1Argumentative |

it's a weak argument that europeans are legally bound to forever buy iphones "designed in california" because they used to buy them in the past.other us companies like tesla massively lost market share already, whole us states are begging for canadians to buy booze.in light of current crises created by the us, why do you think it goes any different for the rest of the us tech companies? the goodwill is used up. | 1Argumentative |

the " (uk)" appendix roughly indicates who would come to protect them in case somebody else tried to invade.the channel island jersey, for instance, more correctly "the bailiwick of jersey", is an autonomous and self-governing island territory of the british islands. it is a british crown dependency with an independent local gouvernment, but not a sovereign state. | 3Informational |

> we learn that liberalism was literally a response to "take from the weak" so to present it as a primary criticism is... interesting.if 3m dumps pfas-related chemicals into rivers that feed drinkwater, its good business. if you or i pour a few cups of pfas-related chemicals into our neighbor's well, that'll get us arrested for poisoning.that's why i said "minimum impediment", which is something you would usually associate with libertarianism. the current strain of western liberalism has evolved even past libertarianism. at least with libertarianism, the state is supposed to protect you from force and fraud. with modern-day western liberalism, the state de facto licenses businesses to poison and defraud you so long as it makes the economy grow.so yes, currently, (neo?)liberalism seems to lead to eat the weak to feed the powerful. it might not say that outright, and its talking points might be more noble, but if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck..it's led to the point where as soon as i hear someone in the west declare that they're a liberal (again, non-us), i immediately assume their primary goal is to further the tearing down of the social fabric of society so that businesses have even more power to make number go up.i heard the beauty of a statement "we will make 140.000 people on welfare even more destitute, so that it becomes more attractive to work minimum wage", from the main liberal party in the netherlands, supposedly a beacon of liberalism. that is malicious, bordering on malevolent. | 1Argumentative |

ifatfirstyoudontsucceed , perhaps the reason you do not understand where we are coming for is within your post. you conflate "democrats" with "the left" and put klein in place coequal with yourself, lost and confused on the sidelines. all of this is incorrect. the democrats are hostile to the left, and have been forever, but especially over the last 20-30 years. the reason the democrats fail is because they, like klein, refuse to see the fight they are in for what it is. for example, i saw someone on bluesky last night post "trump didn't send the national guard to cities to "fight crime," he sent them to cities to normalize unconstitutional use of the military against civilians." see how easy that is? and yet, where are democrats? missing. in. action. democrats have been drifting right my entire life, and people like klein are there, are put in the positions they have by powerful institutions like the new york times, precisely to give cover to democrats to move to the right. i said above that klein is an idiot. i mean that in the sense of a "useful idiot," in that he is being used by class interests that he is not a part of for purposes he is too stupid to see | 1Argumentative |
culturally irrelevant and unlikeable bullies run the country. joyce carol oates clocked elon and his ilk as rich people who have no interests or engagement with the world around them. people who think rocking in the free world is a pro-america song or the punisher is pro-cop. | 1Argumentative |
orientalism is a discussion of how europeans engaged with culture from the near and far east, yes. that's a topic on europeans. and europeans engaged with this culture incompletely, which is not exactly a surprise for any community on the planet.again, the reason why we see more courses on orientalism than the reverse is because of the continued disproportionate focus on european history in the academy. and at least for my professor friend who teaches indigenous american history, there is absolutely discussion of the ways that they understood and misunderstood europeans.i do not understand how a modern authoritarian leader relates to this whatsoever. does erdogan have some say in history curricula at us universities? | 1Argumentative |

living in the northern hemisphere, it bugs me that standard north-up, west-left maps don't match up with the sun and with our clocks. it's neat that both clock hands and the sun are "up" at noon. it would be even neater if that upward direction corresponded to south, since that's where the sun actually is at midday. with south-at-top, east-to-the-left, maps would sync with both our clocks and the sun's daily arc. but then we would lose the west-left rhyme. | 1Argumentative |

fascism implies (paraphrasing wikipedia):* a dictatorial leader* an authoritarian government* nationalism and/or racism* militarism* promotion of a "natural order"i don't think any of those accurately characterize a dominant ideology on hn. if anything, in my observation, hn is somewhat libertarian-leaning, rather than fascist. | 1Argumentative |
