They are neoliberal news sites. By normal definitions of the word, they are right-wing organizations.

Best Buy is going to be the next Circuit City. The only question is when.

Because electrification has become a panacea to policy-makers. A magic cure-all solution to all emission problems. So we decided that we will let electricity demand run amok, with no coordinated plan to keep power usage in check. In reality, ideas like reducing power demand and limiting electricity usage will be necessary, even if it direct contradicts previous policies. Ultimately, this is another heavy industry, and making it green is going to be extremely hard. Doubly-so, if you are planning to absolutely explode power consumption.

Sooner or later, something will give. Either we admit that we have to spend many trillions of dollars to upgrade the grid, or realize that electrification isn't the magic solution everyone thought it was. Heck, maybe even admit that some "green policies" were actually just corporate marketing from certain companies that benefit from electrification. You could even go as far as calling it greenwashing.

Kbin/Mbin is like a hybrid of Reddit and Twitter. You can have both a content aggregation and a microblog system at the same time.

The game is not for everyone. The UI is basically designed with inventory management as its main focus.

You don’t sound American at all.

It's pretty obvious you're not a liberal at all. If not a foreign agitator, probably a right-wing kook.

Which is why many of them probably aren’t. They're agitators from outside the US. At best, very poorly informed people from other countries with some obsession with US politics. At worst, people intending to spread misinformation.

I honestly think people left of center have lost their minds with this stuff.

You wonder how real some of these people are. They make a few topics the main reason to oppose Biden, but excuse them for any other politician, especially ones that will make it even worse. They always come off as non-American agitators. Many of which seem to be just Russian actors on top of that.

It is a Ponzi scheme from a financial sense. In the end, it's just a launch provider. It's not suddenly going to become the next Apple in terms of market value. But it is valued like that, and they were able to raise billions of dollars by lying about its potential business ventures.

All of those statements existed to either drum up investment money or get people to buy non-existent products. So those things are examples of securities fraud too.

Very cherry-picked voting data. Rural Texas and New York after a huge scandal are very underwhelming examples.
