It’s not even an unwillingness to admit ignorance: it’s the lack of awareness that there’s already a conversation.

This is the take-home point. They aren’t unaware there’s already a conversation. Their hubris compels them to believe they can answer these questions better than whatever the liberal establishment has come up with.

I thought I was about to see a falcon murder a pigeon. But those eyes say “well it’s not like I have many options…”

Why? Did the race decide it was enjoying it?

“Egghead neuroscientist grandma” feels like it would disarm me.

Wait… they both topped?

I lost the ability to read after that line. Was there more to the story?

You’re swimming in circles, buddy. Oligarchy is what you describe. How’s your free press doing in whatever communist country you’re holding up on a pedestal? I don’t want any of the systems currently in place, but arguing for communism is… idk, current GOP bot strategy?

Because capitalism is monetary policy. The power structure is separate. In America, we have (had?) a democratic power structure. After years of the GOP attacking regulation, we have an oligarchy. Socialism is an economic system that can be compared/contrasted to capitalism. Communism implies socialism as its monetary policy but with a centralized power structure. How are the elites/leaders chosen in communism?

The problem isn’t an ism. These arguments are so tiring. Greed is a problem endemic to our species. It’s much larger than an economic system can solve. Although… communism is a power structure and capitalism is a monetary system. People conflating the two are always doing so out of ignorance or bad faith.

You “print” to standard output, which is the terminal.

They don’t. You do.

Mother Nature occasionally votes.

Some bot accounts delete routinely so their behavior cannot be studied as easily.

Beijing landmark = Tianmen Square. They’re mocking democracy as our “king” wears orange paint instead of clothes. They’re telling the world that democracy will always devolve into fascism and Nazism. They highlight the nature of man to always seek absolute power while ignoring their role in tipping the USA into madness from afar. It is imperative that we stop the madness in the USA and prove them wrong. The battle has always been democracy vs authoritarianism. They’ve played us as the right is preoccupied with infantile notions of good versus evil and the left doing the same thing with capitalism versus socialism.

He needs a war so he can declare martial law so he can cancel elections. Venezuela is just low-hanging fruit.

OP is riffing on the concept of how relatable the story is.

They replace planks often on the USS Constitution of The SE US.

This is absolutely the correct answer. The stare sans slow blinks is them wanting you you to do something. The language barrier cuts off the meaning of the request and creates a recurring headache if you can’t figure it out.

“They’re all gonna laugh at US”

The models get 0% of the proceeds for one year and then 10% after that. After interviews and photos of the models, they get around to interviewing the CEOs of the companies doing this, and there’s an unchallenged narrative about why it’s fair and not exploitative. Shame on the BBC.
