That’s the point, actually some people are extremely sensitive to caffeine, so it needs clear labelling. That labelling is not for you.

You mean 35 mg of caffeine doesn’t do that to you. Food safety laws aren’t written for the average person they are written for the more vulnerable.

Yes, I understand how monero works. Yeah you’ll get away with buying some groceries or whatever with it, but people who go through bankruptcy (especially who aren’t rich, and are felons) have a close eye from the government on their finances. If you try to buy a house or a car or anything actually life changing with that, you’re pretty likely to get caught and charged with fraud etc., unless you legitimise it, that is, launder it.

It does if you want to spend it in any meaningful way

Yes, people often/usually drop the g in quick/casual speech, but most regions I have heard do pronounce it when speaking slower or more formally.

In UK/Australia/NZ we pronounce it as written, with the l.

It does, but if it has compromised the BIOS before that, that won’t get wiped.

Something can’t become categorically imperative, a quiddidity such as an essentially categorical property is invariant with respect to time. It either is or it isn’t. Per contra, aesculapian aid might become dispositionally required.

You don’t understand why people might more frequently discuss the actions of someone with enormous power and influence, than they would those of Darryl from high school?

Ok, but not every random asshole is the richest guy in the world…

Yeah, it is also just a philosophy word. But antisemites use it to refer to “dialectical materialism”, which is a real term for Marxist philosophy, but by which they mean “cultural Marxism”, a thing they made up by which they in turn mean “the Jews are going to impose communism on us through psyops that convince us it is good, so we have to exterminate them.”

Basically, like much of their coded language, it is a reference to a conspiracy theory.

I don’t think that’s right, context matters. It spreads when it is shared uncritically and people come across it in a context where they don’t have their guard up. I believe it is preventative, to some extent, the other way around, when it is shared in a context ripping it to shreds.

People will come across antisemitism in the wild, and it is important that they learn to recognise it. This quote is pretty extreme, but it is important that people know that antisemites use words like e.g. “dialectical” as a dog whistle. The next time they hear someone say something about it when one of their facebook friends share something they might notice that they talk about “Hollywood elites” or whatever in the same way.

Without a good understanding of how antisemitism works we are all susceptible.

Correction: they have spent some fraction of 73M on propaganda, and likely embezzled the rest.

I used to have a similar stereotype about (white) South Africans who I met in my country. However, after having spent some time there recently I can say that South Africans (of all ethnicities) are absolutely lovely people. I was really impressed with what an integrated and truly multicultural society they have less than thirty years after the end of apartheid. I realise there are still big problems but it left a big impact nonetheless.

My hypothesis is that all the shittiest people left when apartheid was ending because they didn’t like black people having human rights, and fled to majority-white countries.

Funny, I can easily do that and assumed everyone could

Just to add to this, the name for this logical error is “affirming the consequent”.

It’s a settlement. The amount of money is not that small, but it ends the investigation into whether drivers should be classified as employees rather than contractors. As the article states, their stock prices soared after this, that tells you everything you need to know.
