Ok cousin, I'll bite, lets get it on.
That's the thing: They're not. Try reading more.
By better, look at production volumes. They leaned into automation, you guys are playing catchup. Meh. They have quality problems. Who hasn't? Ask Boeing.
There's already a more concise word for what you're asking for. Benito Mussolini ...
There you go, right off the deep end. I agree Mussolini got it wrong, piano wire, lamp post justice caught up with him.
We can look at capitalists from history, when it's good, its good and when it's bad it's terrible as is any extreme. Best way is always down the middle and capital is taking the piss atm. Look at AI hype. If any of their bullshit was vaguely plausible, who is going to be able to buy anything if no one is working? That's the end of economy, markets, motivation, reward, creativity, progress, meaningful existence. Until AI can manifest physically, and robots are no where near, the whole pitch is moon pie. It's a very good example of marketing scooping the single mindedness of capitalism that's always with the profit and short termism.
Extreme socialists are as deluded in their own way, but less likely to mug me. Caring sharing bunch.
On this topic: Ever notice every bad ideology resulting in the deaths of tens of millions (and likely more) started in Europe? Not to mention all four world wars were started by Europeans -- though I kind of doubt you can name all of them. Shit, you're probably only aware of two, and only because it's in the common name of those two.
Fuck me really? You want to talk about war? Your country is a war machine. You have been at it since you got started. If you are not shooting a foreigner you are shooting each other .
I cant name 4 world wars, you are right. Last 2 were important to recent history.
.. the state can either take over or nationalize their business, or install its own board of directors and/or management, exerting control without nationalizing it.
I am ok with that. It's the states job to protect the people sometimes and right now we are getting fucked by the water and energy utils for profit and poor quality. These are the surviving essentials of a functioning society and the infrastructure was paid with public money. That parade of monopolistic, cynical, greedy cunts can go fuck their kids. They are holding us all back and putting brakes on the economy and prosperity.
Re. My language. Welcome to Britain, an irreverent and rude culture. The original punks. We cut the heads off of kings.
... the criticisms was Monsanto
When they went down the terminal seed route. Fuck em. I don't need to know any more about them. Bad is bad. Open source it. It's food ffs.
You a farmer or a biologist? Ai Jockey? Futurist? You know more about this than me. My position is, is it safe, are they taking the piss? If its a yes and no, cool.
Basically the only thing you have going for you in this regard is CERN ..
You sure about that? We saved your ass from covid with an RNA vaccine , or did you inject yourself with bleach on your presidents instruction? Take a look at Oxford vs Harvard student demographics, the world's still coming here colonial.
This is exactly why I make fun of you guys so much on this topic: You're basically arguing for young earth creationism. That's really how dumb this argument is. The reason is quite simple: (NB: When I say we, I mean everybody but Europeans, and "you" plural, as in Europeans)
When we make gene edits, they're very specific and targeted, we know exactly what amino groups they encode for, and we well understand what the resulting proteins do well before they ever end up in a seed. When plants reproduce naturally however, there are all sorts of mutations and recombinations, by the millions, and we only have a vague idea what they do. But those are somehow "tested variants" to you, because it takes a European to think all things natural are always better.
Are you in bio tec? Do you actually work for Monsanto?
It's a good insight into European culture, we like natural. Maybe we have more respect for it being an older maybe wiser culture. The earth, human civilisation is a bloody good test scenario. To be old, being wise helps. We have a saying, from Yorkshire probably, that's where most of the pithy ones come from, if not then Scotland. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I already know food is your religion -- this isn't news to me at all.
Fuck yeah. You are what you eat. Come over, Ill cook you a Sheperd's pie and give you some warm beer. 8)
I have liked almost every American I've met by the way. I see them as the children of Europe, our young punk cousins. ;-) And Great nations people, we are related.
It's interesting when you guys say things like this, because McDonald's biggest, most profitable restaurant in the world is in France.
Mcdonalds are very good at localisation, it's very different in Europe. Want a Royale with Cheese? But I didnt know that, and that was an interesting fact. Thank you.
