Yep. Most of the time online you won’t convince the person you’re arguing against, BUT to convince people reading the thread. For the most part, arguing online is performative, for the purpose of the audience rather than the participants.
No, not everything in that list applies to every industry. The car market isn’t a monopoly, but it definitely has issues with government and regulatory capture (and perhaps others, I’m not expert in auto manufacturing). But even without those issues the nature of car making today gives it a high barrier of entry for new comers.
And as others pointed out, the fact it’s not a monopoly leads to more unpopular ideas being scrapped.
Under capitalism it’s always been the case of"what is this worth to you". The difference is in the past if a company overcharges then a competitor could come along and undercut them (so long as the gap was big enough that it made financial sense).
Unfortunately, monopolies, regulatory/government capture, vertical integration, marketing and cartels have gotten so far out of control that consumers are left with little choice but to suck it up. And most governments in the Anglosphere don’t really care.
The connect app allows you to block instances. Not the same as defeding obviously, but it helps.
Not stopping a lot of stupid hot takes about it though.
Yeah, thats what I mean. That’s why it’s unlikely he’ll be replaced, even if he hasn’t formally re-signed yet.
Unless he fucks up completely and repeatedly crashes out, Sargeant will keep his seat. James Vowles said that the plan was always to have Sargeant racing in 2024 and the reason he’s racing this season is they had an opening and thought it was better to give him a “practice” year in F1 than another year in F2
True, for me it also depends on how the Burger is constructed. Often the lettuce is put on the bottom, I want to get straight to the meat and not have the taste masked by lettuce. But it depends on the burger.
Yes, the health secretary, it literally says so in the headline.
I don’t understand this community, so many people complaining about how boring this season is with Redbull winning all the time, and then being told that it is actually really exciting if you look at the competition between the rest of the grid. Then someone posts an article about how exciting the racing is between the rest of the grid and everyone bitches about it.
That’s why they don’t get fired specifically for that, they just get fired.
honestly i’ve delt with more people who refuse to change anything because “what’s the point” than I deal with outright deniers anymore.
But most of the people who express that opinion aren’t saying it because they think that climate change is unstoppable.
They are saying it because the changes that we know can help fight climate change, that we’ve known about for years, that international leaders can implement, aren’t being done.
And this statement, from someone with a lot influence on global carbon emissions than the average person, seems very out of touch. He is telling off the people whose house is burning down, while ignoring the arsonists.
I remember looking this up and the difference is around 1%, so if you’re worried about caffeine intake you’re better off leaving a mouthful in the bottom of your cup than changing beans.
Because most right wing memes are created by professionals. Left wing memes are genuine grass root creations.
The best grass root memes the right can come with is “let’s go Brandon”, which while catchy is about as meaningful as farting into a microphone.
