Upvoted for cussing Aussie.
He has a factory there and sells a lot of cars in China. They can seize property for speaking against the government there.
If you see a graph with an unlabeled axis, it's manipulation.
Sounds similar to what is taught by Mormons. They don't explicitly teach reincarnation but it can be assumed from some of their older doctrine that you must repeat life until you learn to become perfect (godlike) and progress to create your own worlds.
Speculating on the effects of supply and demand is what qualifies as shilling and Russian propaganda to you? I heard the price of methane went up in Europe, but I didn't hear to what extent it hurt people living there. I imagine they just tightened their belts and paid the higher prices rather than live without heat.
No, I don't think speech on the internet was threatened or shamed back then like it is now. Trying to trick an algorithm is a much more recent development. I think memes were created as short form humor (obviously). The earliest memes I can recall were from YTMND.
There's not really a good explanation for how almost all nations responded in lockstep with China's example. The only thing I can figure is mass communication made possible by the internet allowed enough fear to spread that people begged their governments to do something about it and governments did the only thing they know how to do, which is to use force.
If you recall, at least in the US, the government didn't really do anything in those early months of the hoax. Only after panic started to set in did they start to apply forceful tactics like lockdowns, curfews and public health mandates. 2021 was far worse to live through than early 2020.
I wonder how big of a military they would need to round up the people who would refuse to fight.
I don't think the US actually has the manufacturing capacity to keep up with Russia. US war contractors line their pockets and produce relatively little.
Lol that's a clearly recognizable bill gates in the dirt.
They say they do.
Official tally was 44 YEA, 61 NAY.
Results tallied and post was unpinned.
YEA, verily yea. Argument: forum sliding.
Natural gas
Seems probable. Welcome to 5th Gen. Warfare, where everyone is an enemy combatant and the battlefield is in your mind.
Really can't blame anyone for quitting the virtual space.
Do you remember that pressure-cooker feeling during those years? It couldn't have gone on much longer.
Too bad his lecture is cut off before he quite drove the point home.
Hard to do actual research on the subject because it is so political that every source is biased. From what I can tell, the climate change issue seems to be an excuse tax us more while reducing our quality of life.
Hahaha now that's hilarious! Even though you're probably serious, you gotta admit that's a funny way to put it.
Well, now that certainly would be one of the biggest conspiracies of all time.
Eh, this doesn't seem like a big deal to me. Not saying it was right for the mint to purposely lower the purity of the gold, but they still kept it to 99.99% pure, which is what they advertise it as. This scam only saved the mint a small amount of money and it hurts their credibility only slightly.
