From the looks of it, he did legitimately build his own system to send and handle email on his own in his youth. However, by that point in time email had already been in use through Arpanet for several years, and he apparently added nothing meaningfully new to the technology.

Well, as a teen he wrote a program in the late seventies that was named EMAIL, but by then MIT was already using a different piece of software (MAIL) for e-mailing and someone already had used the mail-system to send spam.

I think legally his best argument is that he was the first to create a system directly called "e-mail". It wasn't that different from previous email like works that had been already created and were in use over ARAPANET and MIT, but he does appear to have been the first to use the exact phrase.

Pollard wasn't even an Israeli spy, he was just a guy who decided to sell US secrets and then tried to hide behind being Jewish as an excuse. Despite the fact that before he sold to Israel he tried to sell to the Chinese.

This comic raises a good point: Under Democratic policies recovering from the financial crisis of 2008, America took on a lot of debt. But even before that, America took on a ton of debt due to Bush's Medicare expansion, tax cuts, and wars. Let's take a look at what Ramirez said about those things back in 2001-2005....







Whoops, I looked through the annual books for those years and couldn't find any! I guess the editors left them out by mistake. He was very busy cheering on the Iraq war, after all. I'll keep checking.

But I did find one cartoon from him in 2006 on money matters:



Weirdly enough, you know who did comment on all that spending?

Haha, from that Shiva dude's wiki

quote:

In 2015, Ayyadurai published a paper that applied systems biology, which uses mathematical modeling, to predict the chemical composition of genetically modified (GM) soybeans and whether or not they were substantially equivalent to unmodified soybeans.[48] The paper claimed that GM soybeans have lower levels of the antioxidant glutathione and higher levels of cancer-causing formaldehyde, making the modified soybean substantially different, contrary to previous safety assessments.[49] The publication led to sensational headlines from opponents of GM foods.[50] Shortly after publication, he embarked on a speaking tour of the US. At the National Press Club, he said that genetic modification had "fundamentally modified the metabolic system of the soy" disrupting the "beautiful way of detoxifying [formaldehyde]" present in non-GM soy.[50]

The European Food Safety Agency evaluated the paper and determined that "the author's conclusions are not supported" due to the lack of information on the input into the model, the fact that the model was not validated and because no measurements of soybeans were made to establish whether GM soy actually contained elevated levels of formaldehyde.[51] Plant scientist Kevin Folta noted that there was "no evidence ever published ... that shows a difference in formaldehyde between GM and non-GM varieties".[52][53] Ayyadurai later cited the study as evidence of a lack of safety standards for GM foods and bet Monsanto a $10m building if they could prove that they were safe. Monsanto did not take up the challenge but stated that GM food did indeed undergo safety assessments that "are more rigorous and thorough than assessments of any other food crop in history".[54] In 2016, Ayyadurai promised to donate $10m to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign if she could disprove his research.

This actually fits for Trump. If you'll recall from the '90s, Native American tribes no longer exist because the people in them "don't look like Indians" to him. So in Trump's mind (and probably Garrison's), the only real Indian is someone from India.

Which I guess is why he thinks it's okay that he can call Liz Warren "Pocahontas" in front of Navajo war vets.

When you're a kid your boomer parents tell you to study and work hard in school or else you'll end up working at McDonalds. Then you graduate and there's no jobs because the economy tanked due to shortsighted capitalist morons and your parents say, "what, mister fancy pants college boy is too good to work at McDonalds?" So you bite the bullet and get a job at McDonalds and it totally sucks as expected and pays for poo poo, and when you complain about the lack of a livable wage, your parents sneer, "Well what do you expect working at McDonalds? Stop being so lazy and get a better job!" And then you go insane and burn down everything because goddam gently caress it all.

Never touched John Smith most likely, he just fantasized about a then 9 year old girl falling in love with him in stories that only he was the source of. Unless you're talking about John Rolfe, but that was after she was kidnapped, held as some kind of amusing zoo animal and likely took up with the English to survive.

When he was caught he spun a bunch of bullshit about how he was only doing it because he thought America was being unfair to Israel, not sharing information that they needed. This leaves out the fact they paid him handsomely for it and also how he stole information that his wife used to advance her business interests.
