In the mean time UK and Germany have agreed to send more torpedoes so that Israel can protect its naval borders from further incursions

Meanwhile the US has approved 3.5 Billion “aid” to a genocidal apartheid dictatorship
No suprise there. Germany is the second biggest arms supplier to Israel after the US. Fuck free speech, no one likes to hear they’re complicit to a genocide.
Not only that. There are whole countries participating in that disgusting shit. UK and US stayed absent from the Nagasaki memorial event because Japan had the good sense of not inviting an apartheid dictatorship.
The sad truth is that most people don’t care either. They say they do, but don’t act on it. Barely anyone stopped flying to their yearly vacation, barely anyone reduced their meat and dairy consumption, an increasing amount of people are wearing fast throwaway fashion. If the governments implemented the drastic measures we need they would be hanged by an angry mob of morons who won’t understand the dire situation until they die of a heatstroke.
I understand the hate, but that’s a very shortsighted wish. How do you tax the rich if they leave?
Thanks for taking the time to explain all that. I’m still lost though. How the hell is the inflation, that I and all my friends and family are experiencing, 10 times higher than the national average? Like, all our rents got bumped up even without moving, supposedly due to energy prices surging. This is obviously a rethorical question, that I don’t expect you to answer.
Can someone explain those numbers to me, because I’m honestly lost. Is this article suggesting that prices in july 24 were 2.3% higher than in july 23? If yes, what are they measuring exactly? I just know that groceries and rent jumped about 20% compared to last year. Did some other stuff that I have no connection to get significantly cheaper? Do I live in the inflation capital of germany? What am I missing here?
OP is obviously Dr. Noonien Soong
Not to be pedantic, but since you’re emphasising it: their (they’re = they are)
What’s your field of work? I work in IT and really try to find some day to day use cases where AI might help and I just don’t seem to find any. The odd presentation or maybe a sprint review protocol, but nothing recurring or anything that feels game changing.
I’m convinced it’s an economic issue. The oligarchs are canibalizing society as we know it and it’s reaching an inevitable tipping point. And the story line that always tracks in a situation of economic unrest, is that brown people are fucking stuff up.
