Political correctness makes people dumb, proof number 1645138776410:

 

University of Victoria (Canada) spends $24,000 in woke consultants fees to repaint a crosswalk with LGBT colors.

The rainbow conundrum at UVic: Crosswalk refresh no simple paint job

UVic has said any repainting of the rainbow crosswalk will have to wait until it holds conversations with staff, faculty and students. It’s spending $24,000 on those consultations

These people claim to transmit knowledge, what a joke.

I don't see how Elon is playing 4-D Chess TBH.  He looks like he's just taking down something he disliked for a long time at a significant cost to himself and Tesla.  Perhaps in his eyes it's worth it.  

 

I've seen some analysts claiming it's a big plan for Elon to create a big digital environment, but I don't spend much time on these analyses (a dice roll is not much less valuable that them sometimes...)

 

The only way to know is to wait and see.

Elon is now getting attacked for being a "Russian Agent" lol & some clueless blame the defeat of the Ukrainian-NATO counteroffensive on 'Starlink'. 

 

President Biden even commented on Twitter being a Russian asset.

 

Twitter was actually completely overrun with Ukrainian propaganda and still is TBH.

Most social media are toxic, but I believe Elon's twitter is the least toxic. Tiktok is probably the most toxic.

 

Youtube's biggest problems when accessed on the phone are the obnoxious ads and the high use of cell phone power.  Also people on the go do not have the attention span for the 10 minute video sometimes. This seems to be why they are so concerned with Tiktok taking over 'eye ball' share.

 

Tiktok has pretty good potential for advertising revenue as well.  

 

It seems to be a pretty powerful platform for influencers and propaganda/promotion.

Biden's administration is the 2023 version of Bush's administration.

I have to say the level of discourse in U.S. politics has degraded almost in real time over the course of the past ten to fifteen years in a manner that is almost impossible to wrap one's head around.

My youtube analytics show that people only watch 3 1/2 minutes of my videos on average, just a 30% viewer retention rate.  Typically 50% is considered 'decent' on youtube.

 

I released a 6 1/2 minute video and they watched 3 1/2 minutes again..lol.  My retention rate doubled.  So I've been making 12 minute videos for no reason..

 

I'm also suspecting that the advice by tittok/youtube that 'hashtags' should be minimized is disinformation that benefits them primarily.  At least on tiktok I have noticed that the more hashtags I use the better it performs.

An alternate history dream is what if the US federal government & military weren't completely terrible over the past 20+ years?  No 8 trillion dollar wars, no 1 trillion a year interest payment on debts, and balanced budget.  Where would the nation be without all these disasters?  It's all very sad.

 

Now it looks like the world is inching more and more towards a new cold war and WW3.  

 

I don't know much about the situation with Hamas but it looks like Gaza will be turned into gigantic grave and urban warfare battlefield between fanatical muslims & jews.  

 

The much lauded Israeli M-tanks have been recorded being destroyed by Hamas, they join all the other 5 million dollar tanks (Abrams, Leopard 2 and Challenger) that moving piles of future pieces of Junk.

Biden said that "climate change" is more dangerous to the world than "nuclear war".  

 

John Kirby (Pentagon Spokesman who has lied for 1 1/2 years about the war in Ukraine) is either confused or is full agreement and the reporter can't believe it lol.

Well, how many people died in the last year due to extreme weather events caused by global warming and how many died in a nuclear attack?

There are two ongoing wars with two nuclear powers (Israel and Russia)

There are people already dying from climate change.

Including in my own country (Belgium).

And that isn't even taking into consideration the infrastructure costs, which are massive too. The estimates of one billion in this old piece turned out to be laughably low.

Only an administration who thinks that the potential use of nuclear weapons in Ukraine & Israel is 0% would make such a statement lol.

It is close to 0%. But even if it is higher than that, it isn't already a tangible threat to lives the way climate change is. But I guess those deaths don't count somehow.
