  • I live under a fully functional social democratic welfare state. But it’s adorable that you think you can assume whatever suits your agenda.

    Books have been written about how the earth is actually flat instead of a spherical. That doesn’t mean the content is correct.

    Truth is, writing headlines about companies that every 5 years put together a solid and safe 20 year plan in accordance to previous estimates and slowly pulling out investments and assets from places where the risk of geopolitical conflict is higher than the norm, just simply doesn’t generate a lot of clicks.


  • That’s an opinion you have. Not a factual ideology of what makes capitalism, capitalism.

    You can certainly think that’s how some businesses operate, and I’m sure plenty do take short term risks. But to call that a cornerstone of capitalism is at best uninformed.

    He didn’t say he was thinking they would or wouldn’t. He said he doesn’t think they should. Those are two different words that mean two different things.

    When I say, Russia shouldn’t push their polotical opposition out of windows. I’m not saying I don’t think they would. I’m saying I don’t think they should.






  • I get what you’re saying. But labeling an assasination attempt as misfortune is a little disingenuous don’t you think?

    I don’t think that political violence shouldn’t be celebrated or even slightly accepted. It’s not the solution. If you don’t mind people celebrating the assasination attempt of Trump.

    You also don’t have to mind people celebrating a potential attempt on Biden, or any other politician. And I don’t think you actually want to do that.

    I don’t like him either. But when you start shooting/assasinating politicians you don’t agree with you end up like Mexico or Russia.



  • but this is the most dangerous thing that has happened this century.

    A century is 100 years no? This was a failed assasination of a political candidate, former president.

    You don’t remember the failed assasination of a sitting president named Regan? I think that was more dangerous.

    You also had people storming the capitol and breaking into politicians offices and taking various documents and trying to make their way to them, themselves, some of the intruders were carrying Zipp cuffs, I’m sure they intended to use them as well. Not to mention that a police officer died during the insurrection as a direct consequence of it.

    So I can easily think of something more dangerous not just in the century but in the decade. I mean cmon… it was just 3 years ago. Not even half a decade.
