Several years of blistering inflation during which Harris was sitting Vice President, and neither she nor her unpopular boss lifted a finger to slow or stop it?

Oh, they felt the fear...briefly. Then came the depositor bailout. But during that brief moment before the realization that the Fed + Treasury would move heaven and earth to save them, they screamed like stuck pigs.

Secondary risk is that another SVB "forces" the Fed/Treasury/FDIC to bail out the new round of moron depositors, setting off yet another asset bubble reflation à la March 2023, thus kicking the tech apocalypse can even further down the road

No doubt the product, if it ever ships, will be stupid and bad and will suck shit. But they'll encounter very little friction for any privacy-violating features it has.

I doubt they'll be much more conscientious about the law than Uber was. The latter was basically an illegal cab company whose owners were rich and not-Black enough to 1) violate the law with impunity while 2) buying enough legislators to change the law. Same with unlicensed hotel facilitator AirBnb!

Genocidal and deluded, which is kind of a problem when they possess the state

It kept up its large scale Treasury and MBS purchases and zero percent inflation policy long after it had become clear that the economy (and especially the housing market) was overstimulated. It didn't seem too worried about its inflation mandate until persistent screaming inflation forced its hand.

So, given that this stuff very much existed and that America's Young Men gravitated to Rogan instead, what does this tell us about the theory that we need Rogan-but-leftist podcasts but are lacking any?

I mean, we already know that the person who "wrote" it didn't read it!

Tbh, bold of you to assume that there's an "anyone" (i.e., a human actually reading these articles before they go to print) involved at all

Nope. Tesla is a particularly bad example, but the "legacy" carmakers have been cramming this shit down people's throats for a while now.

The thing is, interest rates are only "elevated" relative to the insane rate repression of the pandemic era. The rates aren't the problem; these are normal and healthy rates!

I searched just to confirm, and was not surprised at all to find that King Features doesn't have a book editor.
So why not have the book editor at the Chicago Sun-Times look over future syndicated book reviews? Well, about that...

There very likely is not an editor on staff at King Features whose job includes knowing which books are real. So the actual editor, assuming there even is one, would have had to Google the authors and titles and be savvy enough to disable AI for the results, which is a big ask in this environment.

Journalism as an industry created a criminogenic environment by nearly eliminating human oversight while creating a huge labor surplus.

Absolutely not a you problem. This is not a term normal people use for any segment of the right, much less the "revenge cancel culture" MAGA right

Is that a problem with the quality of the data, or with their interpretation of the data?

Talking about the "cost of living" was never going to save her. Voters understandably wondered why she didn't say a thing about it while she was the sitting Vice President and inflation was screaming at 10%.

The reason I posted in the first place is that normal people were pissed off about the crackdown

Yes, great, fine, what I'm saying is that nobody cares what is or isn't or was or wasn't in a TOS, this is not a thing normal people care about

Ads in a paid service will be part of the TOS as well.

Clever retort there

Maybe this time consumers will actually cancel instead of whining online but continuing to pay, as they did in response to the account sharing crackdown

It is possible to cover more than one story at a time, it is normal to cover more than one story at a time, it is good to cover more than one story at a time, and it is profoundly silly to pretend that any of those three things aren't true
