Re: Putin Invades Ukraine II

Tragic. Far right pushing pro-life and far left pushing masks/lockdown/no jabs no job/UBI-communism.
Your body your choice. Not going to get fixed either because these people want the fight. Before social media they couldnt form mobs this large.

Yes, along with Vanguard. Asset holders + homeowners are the most powerful lobby. They arent going to allow assets to drop nominally in USD, for very long. The governance issues are interesting, with Blackrock and Vanguard CEOs voting on your behalf https://old.reddit.com/r/Bogleheads/comments/14771...

Scott Adams isnt going to transmogrify anyone here into a conservative.
Never listened to the podcast, but they have one of the best sub-reddits. Maybe that isnt saying much. Its for centrist women or something.

Its not that AI is going to outsmart us, its that the easy jobs it might replace are important, they keep people in a routine and away from drugs. many smart people will choose to do nothing when they have UBI and social media.
