Honestly, except for the ridiculous levels of vaccine hesitancy, I think the world gets a passing grade for this pandemic. The response (from scientists not politicians) was fast and strong... and, for an emergency, the amount of waste wasn't unreasonable.

Twitter is inevitably going to go bankrupt. As soon as the leveraged buyout went through, the company was absolutely doomed.

In the best of times, Twitter has been barely profitable - the annual interest due from the company to have the privilege of being bought out by Musk blew way beyond even the most optimistic income numbers.

Leveraged buyouts should seriously be fucking illegal.

We certainly do, but we're not voting on a single issue and a lot of voters are extremely uninformed or misinformed. There are a number of absolutely fucking atrocious Isrealis, and a number of abhorrent Americans... but there are a lot more that voted for Bush for economic reasons or because they had some mistaken impression of him - I don't know if you remember this but W actually had a great sense of humor and that appealed to some people.

Hey, if you Americans want to judged by the standard of Joe Arpaio you can judge the majority of Isrealis by this shitheel.

... and America was, of course, instantaneously more interested in ending the war to commercialize the deposit.

Absolute shitheel of a human being... but do realize that their elected office is on the town council for a town of a thousand people.

This is an absolutely insignificant person....

Total fucking shitheel, though.

He's also been shipping asylum seekers to the border to overwhelm social services.

That's why I like more meaningful comparisons. Right now China is so frigid that it's colder than the surface of the sun.
