The usual cycle of tech-bro capitalism would put them currently on the early acquire market saturation stage. So it's unlikely that they are currently charging what they will when they are established and have displaced lots of necessary occupations.

That's such a Kissinger frame of mind.

Order with injustice over justice with chaos (sic).

100%? Yes, Citizens United has poured petrol on the ability of large aggregations of money to undemocratically influence election outcomes; and yes some of those aggregations are unconcerned with the wellbeing of American people. But are people that are voicing concerns about AIPAC (given that it represents an appartite state currently brutally escalating a decades old genocide, that wants to silence any political voices that are critical of it) actually antisemitic? Because the comment you rated as 100% seems to be furthering AIPACs goal.

It's as if they read about Breonna Taylor's murder and concluded that black people shouldn't think that stand your ground laws apply to them but the important lesson is that killing is wrong.

Are you me? You forgot to mention that she gets up to pee 5-6 times a night. Which is what often really wakes her up but she's in too a belligerent mood to admit.

I'd have thought that the emphasis is on the 40 brands vs 3-4 companies. So the theme is partially the illusion of choice but mostly it underlines the inherent problems with current capitalism.

Increasingly your money is being funneled into fewer and fewer hands. While marketing/advertising maintain the illusion of diverse companies with individual character/ethos.

This combination is repeated in some form or other time and again.

I done goofed up. I hit the 'block user' option instead of the 'go to user' option (need glasses) and I can't now find an option to unblock them. Is there one?
