So if I got beef with some little island, all I got to do is send a sack of potatoes to the US, put some ridiculous price tag on it and pencil in the wrong address?

Every dollar sent to the US now is used to defeat us. #BoycotUS

Yup. There will be some very nice deals for laptops with US keyboards đ

Overall itâs a slightly better calculation than Trump did (bsky.app/profile/dans...) but still working with very flawed underlying reasoning and notwithstanding that, hitting the 99% much much harder than the 1%.

However the article assumes, if I understand correctly, that only 25% (may be up to 400%) of the price increase due to tariffs are passed on to US customers (seems unrealistic tbh, Iâd assume 100% plus overhead).

Thatâs not how I read this. The linked page says tariffs would be an average of 20% globally. Can you double check your conclusion (maybe with an example)?

And now they canât get him back because - well the USA has no jurisdiction in Ecuador. Nobody could have seen that coming. *surprisedpikachuface*

Confidently incorrect. Who would have thought that the feelings of people that are clearly unqualified for the job are totally irrelevant.

Ist nicht (nur) Rache: Gute FachkrĂ€fte aus dem US-Ausland deren Visa an die Arbeit gekoppelt ist, sind billiger als US-heimische FachkrĂ€fte und auch viel leichter zu kontrollieren, wie Musk bei seiner Twitter-Ăbernahme gelernt hat. Die Reichen wollen unter sich bleiben und ziehen die Leiter hoch.

Das muss man schon verstehen, schlieĂlich ist es leichter aggressiv gegen andere zu agieren wenn man sich selbst als Opfer inszeniert. Die WidersprĂŒchlichkeit gehört zum Programm - deswegen lieben die Rechten die Ungebildeten (I love the uneducated!), die tun sich schwerer das zu durchschauen.

Duh! Why didnât anyone mention this when Trump was taken to court again after his first conviction? They could just have sent him to Ecuador or northern Greenland or something, on the next occasion, no trial required.

Well, he loves the uneducated and apparently thatâs sufficient.

Philosophy (and education and the truth for that matter) mean nothing in a mafia gang. All that counts is loyalty to the leader and the will to grab whatever power and money you can grab by whatever means you can think of.

Exactly. Canât exactly make a law that requires a EU citizen to buy a certain car. I mean the orange clown certainly does try (and itâs hilarious) but short of that, theyâll just have to take it.

I guess the update would feature a Tesler and at least one MAGA hat and the complimentary golden diapers.

We get your country and in return you get no healthcare, paid vacation, free education, equality before the law and functional democracy. Deal?

Canât reason with unreasonable people. Meloni is dead wrong, this isnât about âa difference in opinionsâ, the USA doesnât give a shit about European opinions, they just want to strong-arm everyone.

Ich verstehe auch nicht warum EuropĂ€ische Politiker und Institutionen noch immer X nutzen und mit ihrem Geld die Verzerrung der öffentlichen Meinung auch noch unterstĂŒtzen.
Es ist lĂ€ngst ĂŒberfĂ€llig fĂŒr die EU eine unabhĂ€ngige, freie Lösung zu entwickeln.

Sounds like this happened by chance because the ship couldnât maneuver anymore. Can we make this happen by default for the entire shadow fleet instead of relying on chance please?
