1 yearThat is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever fucking read.

World News@lemmy.world•Why has the EU kept silent on Serbia’s massive protest movement?English
1 yearBecause capital hasn’t been affected just yet, is my guess.
Edit: Spoke with a Serbian friend and they say it’s because of the lithium mines.
That’s terrible… I’m so sorry. Hopefully people can find a workaround or something… I don’t know…
Hahaha, no I get that! I was trying to ask what exactly about owning chickens is illegal. Is it a noise thing, smell? Risk of disease? Are ducks illegal?
Do they just hate chickens?
What do you mean illegal to own chickens? What?

World News@lemmy.world•Billionaire Carlos Slim cancels $22 billion in Starlink orders due to Elon Musk’s outburstEnglish
1 yearWah, good for you!
I’m invested solely in an all-world ETF, so I’m getting hit pretty hard by the market crashes in the US. It doesn’t really bother me too much, considering my time horizon, but still.
Good luck with your money!

World News@lemmy.world•Billionaire Carlos Slim cancels $22 billion in Starlink orders due to Elon Musk’s outburstEnglish
1 yearNowhere did I claim that billionaires are good.
Of course, nor did I mean to imply you did so!
I do get your point, and, on the surface level, I agree. However, I think it’s an inferior analysis of the situation.
Take your tiger metaphor; naturally, the rabid and hungry one is the most dangerous. Nevertheless, as you pointed out, they are both existential problems. I simply can’t celebrate, be satisfied, or even be appeased by the knowledge that we’re harbouring a hungry tiger, no matter what hungry and rabid tiger we may avoid by doing so. That’s my point.
It does seem we’re on the same page about this, to be honest… It’s just that your initial reply seemed a little — how do I put it… — irrelevant? It’s the Maxim of Quantity. We both agree that billionaires are fundamentally problematic, then why did you go and specify which ones are worse?
- “Here’s a bowl of cereal. By the way, I didn’t piss in it.”
Yeah… I get that, but why would you even bring that up? Why say that? It doesn’t imply that you’re someone that pisses in cereal, but it does give off that feeling.
- “Billionaires are bad. By the way, that kind of billionaire is worse.”
Yeah… I get that, but why would you even bring that up? Why say that? It doesn’t imply that you’re someone that thinks billionaires are good, but it does give off that feeling.
Do you pick up what I’m putting down?!

World News@lemmy.world•Billionaire Carlos Slim cancels $22 billion in Starlink orders due to Elon Musk’s outburstEnglish
1 yearSo? No billionaires at all are better than both cases. Bezos is evil too, any investment going towards him is terrible to. It’s better than Elon, but all this is terrible. Also, Bezos is not trying to preserve the status quo, he’s only trying to protect himself and his pockets, that’s all.

1 yearIt’s nice that Elon is getting hit where it hurts. Hopefully the EU benefits from this.

World News@lemmy.world•Romania: Far-right candidate Georgescu barred from electionEnglish
1 yearNo, it most certainly is true. The left has decided that it’s acceptable and encouraged to stoop to the level of their enemies. You probably disagree with this because it’s a hard truth you don’t want to acknowledge; don’t worry, I see it all the time.
Sigh, there’s no stats on this, so I’ll refrain from further discussion…
It’s a waste of time and an effective distraction from what we should be doing instead.
Well.





Was pretty wild, but things got resolved within a day in Portugal.
