lessor evil

Your life as a lessee must be truly awful to have made you this angry.

You’re weird.

Should we hold people like that responsible then in your view? The people who cause great harm to the rest of the world whether that be through capitalist or communist or any other mode of production?

Yes. And if we’re holding a person to the flame then it’s fair to compare them to another person, but not to compare them to another system. Somewhere in these comments I offered Churchill as someone who merrily starved India.

I’m not even disputing that. I’m just saying Mao done fucked up. And if that triggers you, then you’ve got a problem.

Which leader was that?

Y’all are trying to count all the evils of capitalism and colonialism against the bone headed incompetence of Mao and it just doesn’t make any sense.

I didn’t ever say it was the fault of communism. I said it was the fault of Mao. Because he severely mismanaged, well, everything. But if you want to shout into the void about capitalism then go ahead. Shout away.

Tsk. Mao is not the same sort of concept as capitalism. Has he killed more or fewer people than mosquitoes or bananas? What about too short green traffic lights? Moonless nights? All questions that make the same amount of sense. Mate.

Added: Feel free to count a famine caused by a capitalist leader against that person’s score. That’s being consistent.

So, all the famine, death and destruction caused by capitalist exploitation of third world countries like india and most of the africsn continent can also directly be tied back to capitalism right?

Sure, if that’s the comparison you’re making. But “capitalism” Vs Mao is not a comparison that makes sense.

You could maybe count Churchill’s famine in India or his jolly little wars in Africa if you want to be argumentative. Or just accept that Mao caused millions of deaths through pig-headed incompetence and move on.

I think the downvotes are from the “lol” where the question mark normally goes.

Because a communist dictator coming into power is often followed by severe mismanagement and famine and the deaths of millions. It’s not the same sort of evil as killing people deliberately, but they’re equally dead.

All that circular investment is being counted as revenue in some legs of the loop

The deeds. Keep up!

Why not in something more relatable like ammo boxes or gerbil anuses? This seems downright unamerican.

Your comment is at 0% up votes. Did you not even vote it up yourself?

The primaries are over mate.

With 10 IOUs it’s unlikely [they’ll] all default, so the asset is safer and your risk models can assess this.

This is where my spider senses go off. Are we assuming that these IOUs defaulting are independent events? Even though they’re from 10 crack heads talking about stealing the same generator?

That is on top of the $18 billion in bonds it sold in a single day last September

That’s $6.57 trillion in annualized debt using AI bubble math.

Oracle, though. It’s possible they’ll actually die. And wouldn’t that be tragic.

Oh the humanity

Dear human ❤️,

I think you mean the economy — everyone’s stressed, emotions are running high, and you’re wondering what we can actually do about it.

First, take a breath. 🌍 We don’t have to solve everything at once.

Here are a few things we can do:

1. Help each other. Share skills, support local businesses, and help people who are struggling.
2. Be careful with money. Focus on necessities, avoid unnecessary debt, and save what you can.
3. Keep learning. Develop skills that can help you find work or create new opportunities.
4. Stay informed, not overwhelmed. Understand what’s happening without letting constant bad news control your emotions.
5. Work together. Communities, businesses, and governments all have roles to play in making the economy work better for more people.
6. Look after our mental health. Financial uncertainty is hard. We need to support one another rather than turn against each other.

But I want to understand what you’re really asking, because there’s something important in your question.

When you say everyone’s emotional right now, do you mean:

• 💰 The economy — prices, jobs, inflation, and the cost of living?
• 🌎 The global situation — wars, political tensions, and uncertainty about the future?
• ❤️ People’s emotions — why everyone seems angry, anxious, or divided, and how we can change that?

Or do you mean all three?

Tell me what you have in mind. We can talk about it honestly and work through what ordinary people can actually do.

reversible so completely irrelevant

So is a session transcript.

My understanding is that the context if the session is bigger than just the outputs. If it is, then shutting it down is “murder”. If it isn’t, then it is as conscious as a notebook.
