I always want to ask the people who claim this poo poo: what would happen if bezos vanished without a trace right now? would amazon lose any revenue? would any of its operations change? what would it lose that’s worth a wage of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars every minute of every day???

i had a...friend is too strong a word, one of those "you hate each-other but still kinda hang out during breaks because you go to all the same classes" relationships.

anyway his dream was to be a cop because "if i say stop or ill shoot i can shoot you"

"what if i stop though" i responded

"no i can still shoot you"

knowing what i know now about cops that guy definitely became one

it just loving amazes me how our system is supposed to reward hard work and gumption when there's a single rear end in a top hat who makes one hundred and fifty thousand united states dollars literally every minute of every single day as if he contributes even a thousandth that much in economic activity

they would say its impossible and refuse to engage with your argument, or maybe pivot to something about greedy unions not doing any work or poor people are often not that poor and they once saw a begger changing $100s worth of coins once for paper cash

i'd have less of a problem with it if what he created was actually new economic activity, but really most of those dollars are just money that would have gone to other companies, workers, or main street. like aws isn't enabling new apps to be created, it's taking money from microsoft and google. amazon.com isn't enabling new types of commerce, it's just killing retail

because of the way the issue is framed, it's never about whether the police should kill someone, it's only about whether the police was justified in doing so


Watching the vid i can see how this plays out, I think some are putting a god level request on the cop. They showed up and had seconds to try and evaluate the situation before berserker blows past the cop to attack pink. I still think 4 bullets is excessive, but i can see why the cops really couldn't do much prior to that moment.

even if you accept every premise the cop shouldn't have shot because the person he was supposedly defending was in the line of fire.

i'm really shocked i'm not seeing more people pointing that out, i guess some people think firearms are magic

Officer Craig Matthews shot seven times, and Officer Robert Sinishtaj fired nine times, police said. Neither had ever fired their weapons before on a patrol.

The volley of gunfire felled Johnson in just a few seconds and left nine other people bleeding on the sidewalk.

You know I thought that it was probably easy tti get fooled into thinking the bad stuff about Cambodia was just more US propaganda, but after listening to the Lions Led by Donkeys series on Cambodia it was kind of obvious bad poo poo was actually going on there.

But who am I to judge I was fooled by Libya and Syria interventions because of bad dictators at first as well
