@shairnn There's no "right" answer. It's more like, "create a rule that fits the numbers given in the top circles, then apply that same rule to the bottom circle." I came up with a rule that produces 18 for the answer. But there are other possible rules that explain the data.

@TukiFromKL This is going to be so awesome...until your boss realizes that since Claude is doing all the real work, the company could save a ton of money by cutting out the middleman (you).

[Liminal Nomad @KarlMarx_2020]

@DaveShapi Just because

Something's useful

Doesn't mean

It's good

[Liminal Nomad @KarlMarx_2020]

@davidsirota That's because this is a class issue, and the working class has no real representation in government.

@SenSchumer You are the status quo, Chuck.

@tmorello Nation-wide General Strike.

[Liminal Nomad @KarlMarx_2020]

@michaelshermer Michael, it seems your concept of "radical responsibility" only applies to the victims of state violence, but never to the perpetrators of that violence. Is that right? Have you ever attempted an analysis of the radical responsibility of ICE, or are they immune to such critique?

[Liminal Nomad @KarlMarx_2020]

A General Strike may be the last peaceful avenue available to us to effect change. But the time for that is rapidly dwindling.

[Liminal Nomad @KarlMarx_2020]

We need a long term nation wide General Strike, and we need it now.

If socialism "siphons value" from capitalism, then explain why capitalism keeps collapsing without socialist intervention.

The Great Depression was not solved by markets.

It was solved by public works, regulation, and state planning.

2008 was not saved by capitalism.

It was saved by massive government bailouts and nationalized risk.

COVID did not expose the strength of markets.

It exposed that without state intervention millions more would have died and the economy would have imploded.

If socialism is a parasite, capitalism seems oddly dependent on its host.

Your claim assumes socialism only survives when it extracts from capitalism.

So answer this:

Why did China lift 800 million people out of poverty faster than any capitalist nation in history?

Why does Cuba outperform the U.S. in healthcare despite 65 years of blockade?

Why did Vietnam go from bomb craters to one of the fastest-growing economies in the world?

These are not parasites.

These are systems building value in spite of capitalist sabotage.

Meanwhile, what does capitalism "build"?

Debt bubbles.

Monopolies.

Financial crises.

Private profit with public cost.

A global system where eight men own more than half of humanity.

And the richest capitalist countries on earth depend on:

Slave-labor supply chains.

Colonial-era extraction networks.

Resource theft.

Military protection of trade routes.

Sanctions to prevent competition.

A reserve currency backed by force, not merit.

If socialism depends on capitalism, why does capitalism need an empire to survive?

Why does it need coups, sanctions, invasions, blockades, and privatization regimes to function?

Why does every socialist project face external sabotage while every capitalist failure demands socialist rescue?

Maybe the truth is simpler.

Socialism works where it is allowed to.

Capitalism works only when socialism keeps it from collapsing.

Your narrative is not economic literacy.

It is insecurity dressed as certainty.

Because deep down you know:

If capitalism ever had to compete on equal terms, it would lose to the very systems it tries to strangle.

@I_Am_JohnCullen @johnny1tap @FBIDirectorKash The device that recorded this probably had a built-in limiter that engaged with the loud gunshot. Therefore, the shot and the echo appear to be the same amplitude.

@FootbaIIism Yeah, Oregon won that game, 35-28.

@KGWNews "Indicated"? Does anyone proofread your work, KGW?

[Liminal Nomad @KarlMarx_2020]

@oregonfootball The sound design on this is off the charts good. Whoever made this should get a raise.

[Liminal Nomad @KarlMarx_2020]

@EarthGlory994 That's not in Oregon. It's Taughannock Falls State Park in New York.

@Carjo2Carjo @MJTruthUltra Sorry, that's false; he won NH primaries in 2016 and 2020. Check your sources.
