Anti-capitalist maybe, but pro capital. Dear leader and his cronies need the cash crops to for export, fancy houses don’t grow on trees. They grow off the the sweat of the worker.

I didn’t intend to say the farmer is making the choices solely for personal profit. They grow what sells, or what they’re told to, so they can afford to live, not their choice.

In the end I see we agree. It’s not about an ism. It’s all about cash. Money. Capital. And greed doesn’t care about crop rotation- it’s too short sighted.

Methinks it’s a capitalist issue, not a farming issue.

Farmers can’t bank seeds and have to buy new every year or face legal consequences.

Probably also planting based on value of crop vs cost of growing not nutritional red of the community.

Might be the idea. “They won’t dare try anything now, because it’ll be worse.”

Russian economy tanks, piles of roubles…

Just have it at the surfing venue. Teahupo’o.

Odd that it didn’t get blocked by these US banking institutions, or they got the transfer fees then flagged the transactions…

Ah, my bad- so it is. To be honest all I’ve ever heard about the Foxconn iPhone factories in china is them using Chinese semi slave labor run by Chinese people.

I guess taiwan number one China is still a bit shady at times…

Wait… I thought Apple left China because of slave(ish) labor reasons. But are still using Foxconn which is a Chinese company?

Ah found this: “Like many of its competitors, Apple has relied on China for assembling its products for years. But political and economic factors have forced the company, as well as the broader tech sector, to rethink that approach by seeking partners from across the region.” (Link

You can take the production out of China, but not China out of production…all for ‘optics’.

I have nothing to add, just amused by the fact that a Tickle can’t get a giggle.

I am bleeding, making me the victor!

Man, I thought I was on crazy pills with the lack of nuance here. Everything is black and white with no room for gray or context…

I’m digging the past few days. There have been a number of posts and comments calling it out. The fact that your comment has positive upvotes is a good sign and surprising.

I believe she made a post/video a bit ago saying that she was taking a break from the videos for a bit, after quitting her job. She said she was going to focus more on her channel(s) as her main focus, to do something she enjoys.

I see a lot of her YouTube stuff posted a month ago, a couple of new ones, my guess is that her break is over and there will be more stuff coming.

Though I may be misinterpreting the question…

I just quickly read the bot TLDR, and assumed the best intentions by the poster… I forget myself at times.

‘Vaccines were from the height of the pandemic‘. I believe they meant that since these doses are 2-3 years old, and the virus has mutated several times… these destroyed vaccines are ineffective at this point. Not that vaccines in general don’t work.

Sounds like he won a magical monkey paw from that weird stall at the fair that nobody else seems to remember.

Muggsy Bogues, too. Though I don’t think he won a dunk contest.

RIP.

Rabble rouse In Perpetuity, I dont think he’d ever rest peacefully.

I don’t know how I first heard them, but the Pogues have been a favorite of mine for a while. ‘The repeal of the licensing laws’ is the only piece of music I can play. On the tin whistle at that.

Shane with teeth is an odd thing to behold.

I was searching for a video clip of him walking into a mirror and not spilling a drop of gin- instead I see he just died yesterday. Damn. I though the posted meme was just thanking him for the best Christmas song. :,(
