Ok, but that doesnt answer my question. What does a Russian billionaire get out of supporting Israel?

And America is anti-Russia, so why would they support America’s attack dog?

wtf are russian billionaires doing supporting America’s attack dog in the middle east anyway?

How many of the most vile corporations are in that building? Do Nestlé, Monsanto, and Raytheon have floors?

Not supporting the French was an intentional design decision.

That particular example, you buy it from a vendor, for 150-200 yen or 20-30 VND, not every example applies to literally everyone.

But also cold noodles and broth out of the fridge with a pre-made hard-boiled egg arent a bad way to start the day when the heat index gets to 118.

As for calories, dont make so much, dont drink the broth or you will have a heart attack.

I think the issue is that sugary cereal is both bad for you and not that enjoyable. For the same price, I can get a bahn mi with veggies, pate, and egg or pho or fried ramen. I look at people who eat cereal now that it’s no longer cheap the same way I look at people who eat at starbucks or dominoes when there’s a cheaper, better, local place right next door; wondering what’s going on in their life that they’re not willing to deal with the cognitive load of seeing what alternatives exist for breakfast.

This is

Religion doesn’t exist outside society; that dogma is determined by what is useful to those in society with the power to promote it. This is why under the multi-cultural Ottoman Empire they came up with all sorts of justifications to expand the definition of “people of the book” to include basically every significant religious minority except Hindus, and that was only a matter of time, and why fundamentalists who want to return to the 1300s were promoted funded by the British/US/Saudis.

Same applies to any ideology or philosophy. To pretend otherwise is liberal idealism.

SIXT and TURO. Maybe price out renting the big truck from Lowe’s/home depot. Or a haul. Both might be cheaper than hertz/enterprise depending on your area.

It could be so much worse.

Right now, the Chinese government has effective eminent domain powers which allows them to acquire property for which to build public infrastructure, both expressways and high-speed railways

I’ve heard people claim as much, but at the same time, Stuck Nail Houses exist, I’m not sure how to reconcile the two. I think it’s that their eminent domain is limited to property that was purchased after a certain point, so if it’s property your parents owned since the 80s, it’s literally easier for developers to route the highway around your home than win that lawsuit, but if they bought in like 2010, they can just give you a similar or better property, or the cash to buy one, and that’s that.

Alternately, if you don’t live in China, Zhaoxin makes x86-64-compatible CPUs. No need to worry about the Chinese government/corpos helping the American government/corpos tyrannize it’s own citizens.

They’re not quite as good as intel/AMD in perf or effeciency/dollar.

India has a billion english speakers. But they do tend to their own sites/fb

They do hand-counts when there’s an irregularity.

Hand count consists of 1 delegate from each party tallying every single ballet. If they disagree on a ballet (this is less common if a computer prints the ballet), an official agreed on by both parties determines what the voter intended.

The voting system is quite good by international standards, the fix in American “democracy” comes in way before all of this.

It means they need to run more, longer trains.

Sold out trains still sell standing tickets, which let you pick seats if available. I’ve seen old ladies choose to stand so they can all be in a group.

Also sometimes they’re not totally sold out, but you’ll be choosing between a standing ticket and an expensive first-class ticket or hard seat and soft-sleeper for a slow train.

Did the country surrounded by NATO members on all sides consider allying with NATO’s enemy?

You’re not going to do anything about people not being able to bring themselves to vote for genocide, but you might be able to get the DNC not to tell its own base to fuck off.

They were recruited to round up brown people, whom they regard as criminal. That’s true of the new group and was true of ice and cbp agents recruited under previous administrations.

Weather doesnt really hurt until you get to what, 70 mph?

And if youre going that fast, wear a proper helmet.
