Ooooh that must've struck a nerve. Seems we can't post that here without massive loss of reputation. Progressivism != liberalism. That stuff just doesn't fare well, even as sarcasm.
Dude is giving what many have wanted for years, the largest of which is a massive reduction in US hegemony. Restarted militarization of Europe, accelerated the expansion of China into Africa. Causing Five Eyes to curtail the flow of intel.
But at the same time, utterly burning US soft power with the shuttering of USAID and most likely causing 14M excess child deaths world wide. Shutting down USAID was a bigger "mistake" than the invasion of Iraq and the blowback will be even larger.
Bro just drove the US empire off a cliff. Manufacturing will have to come back if they succeed in burning US currency. Good thing the rich have so much of it, Elon at 1/10th is still 40-70B.
In the process of burning down democracy, Trump has brought about changes that progressives have wanted for decades, namely a vast reduction in US hegemony. He has also caused massive suffering, inflation and will lead to the deaths of millions of people.
So gutting public institutions and the tarifs do not work as trump intended because the fed opposed it? What did they do achieve that? (Sorry if i come across as trump deranged.)
> Are you trying to project this unto Trump when the Fed is doing everything it can to oppose his measures?
The Fed isn't opposing Trump's measures, on the contrary, the Fed is doing everything to accommodate as much of his policies as possible without wider damage to the economy.
It's Trump who doesn't understand the risks of unhinged tariffs and low interest rates which he demands because of his personal conflicts of interest.
Thanks for sharing that. Interesting how there was a solution to a problem that didn't really exist yet.. I mean, I'm sure it was there for a reason, but I assume it was more things like wrongful attribution, missing commas etc. rather than outright invented quotes to fit a narrative or do you have more background on that?
...at least the mandatory automated checking processes are probably not far off at least for the more reputable journals, but it still makes you wonder how much you can trust the last two years of LLM-enhanced science that is now being quoted in current publications and if those hallucinations can be "reverted" after having been re-quoted. A bit like Wikipedia can be abused to establish facts.
I won't pretend to know where you live or what those people's desires are but I definitely started homeschooling after the last US administration took moral volatility to new standards. The principles taught in schools just did not align anymore with what was common sense when I was in school and what I believe in. Now before you judge, I'm not looking for a fight. My wife and I have both master-degree educations in CS and law and our four kids have been to public school in the US and abroad, they've been to an evangelical christian school, and now that we've decided to homeschool for two years, we're not likely to take them back. The traditional school aspects take up 2-3h per day at most, then comes the school of life: raising and caring for animals and plants, fixing the truck or other engineersy activities and of course plenty of fun activities outside of the too-busy-to-be-fun times. My kids have learned of historic events such as Jamestown, Gettysburg or Mount St. Helens at the actual site of the event, they've been to most of the national parks and the fear of being socially-disconnected is not more than a fear before you start. Heck, thanks to Starlink they can even talk to their friends while we're driving through a desert.
Now let me also say that preparing the curriculum, ordering the materials etc. takes a lot of effort and discipline. It's definitely almost a full time job and I'm blessed with an amazing wife that's gifted in all that but the reward is more than worth it. Also, if you're thinking about it, many states have home school support programs and put you in touch with other home schoolers in the area.
So, to be clear, you pulled your children out of public school because students were being educated to accept other people who do not adhere to their own set of religious and cultural beliefs, in a country founded on freedom of religion?
And now instead of learning science in a lab and socializing, they are forced to maintain your farm?
You're forgetting an important distinction: Freedom of religion amongst various Christian denominations. Failure to recognize this as a historical fact leads to back to the original point of public education being a morality platform and not an objective educative platform.
"the last US administration took moral volatility to new standards" I have no idea what this means. Can you explain it?
" The principles taught in schools just did not align anymore with what was common sense when I was in school and what I believe in."
Please explain in more detail what you mean by this. You old do you think the earth is? In my experience most home schoolers are young earth creationists.
It's a valid way to look for probable cause but it's important differ "you know" and "you assume" - I'm all for accountability but most conspiracy theories thrive exactly because of that sort of framing.
As to Lenin: The mouse died because it didn't understand why the cheese was free
iPhone has always been that way (try installing an .ipa file that's not signed with a valid apple developer certificate). For Google forced app verification is a major change. Xbox I don't know..
