It's a one about mental and intellectual development disability.

Edit: Before you replay with a deliberately misconstrued guess, please consider that this would still be making a slur-based joke at the possible expense of people with disabilities. It may not be worth those upvotes.

I would argue "rule of law" is not relevant to American oligarchs.

I agree. But it's relevant to me.

I want my government to work within the rules. I don't want my government to be able to tax people on "strongly hold opinion"s and "everybody knows"es.

I'm not saying that taxes can't be improvement. But taxing international companies is extremely complex problem. No one found completely bulletproof solution yet, and it's almost impossible to do unilaterally without multiple sides collaborating. Everytime someone say "the should just..." it's a gross oversimplification that present reality where solution is obvious and everyone not implementing it gave bad will or lack competency or gut.

I'm thinking "rule of law". Is that their terms? You can't arbitrary tax someone with "I know how much you REALLY earned" alone.

And when you quantify it they will beat it in your own game.

That's not unreasonable. That's a law-suit. They will get back all this money with surplus.

Imagine that you have a company A. And you legitimately licens something from 3rd party company B. That's your cost.

And you license something else from company C... that's your profit some how?

On paper your relationship with company B and C is identical. There is nothing tangible linking you to company C more than B.

And if you manage to find something, they will shift the structure and change it.

You probably pay higher taxes than some of those companies.

Pirates. Enemies of the human kind.

Company A is in Poland. You regulate law in Poland. Company B is in USA. You don't regulate a law in USA.

You want to tax company A, based on company B report, that was created for 3rd party government?

If only tax-evasion was so easily solved. The are not shy of restructuring completely just to fit into any gap that law created. On paper "BigBadCorpo US" and "BigBadCorpo Irealand" could be two completely separate entities, with BBCI turning zero to no profits becouse it license brand from BBCUS.

You would think that Worner Bross is a movie making company. It's not. On paper it's a company that lend very overprices movie equipment. To shell companies created solely for the purpose of creating one movie...

Taxes are hard and people who employ literal armies of layers have the edge over slow law making.

Yes, becouse quality girls famously hate guys with sense of humor.

I think that surprising amount of them are already located in Ireland for that and other tax related possibilities. Giant corporations are basically pirates sailing on lawless waters.

Why? It's not like shortage of bourbon, is much more than inconvenience.

I'm just letting you know that your post reads a little off. I understand that I have only the fraction of information and I'm not clear on all the context. But I only have what you provided.

You also, jumped to calling people sheeps very quickly.

Are you 100% sure, that you're not the one who's toxic?

Carbon tax.

Sur. But I personally think thay Brave New Word turned out to be much more relevant to westeners.

I honestly think that approach like this is hurting the movement. You're dismissive about experience of someone who deleted Microsoft account and canceled most US-based serviced and social media that he was most engaged with. And you're literally explaining to me how convinient it is to me?

This revolution is way to small, to start eating their own already.

I agree on all points, except on you deciding what I need. I would prefer to be the one making that call.

One could argue that pen and paper is all you need. And it would be just as productive.

Immortaly gained superiority is exactly my initial point.

In comics Anti-hero, is not a villain. It's a hero, using same tools as villains would (Deadpool, Punisher, etc).

Anti-pripaganda. Is a propaganda with opposite vector. Same tools, different goal.

If propaganda is "USA is roten country with systemic oppression off all but 1%, that is comming for our freedom and our resources", the anti-propaganda would be "USA is the greatest country in the word and things we do are good becouse we are ones doing it. What even is a Patriot Act? Only terrorist should worry about stuff like this."

Don't know much about magicearth,

But workspace have, so much more features than kSuitPro, that this is not even a fiar comparison. Even if you dont count externalities like Gemini, Video, notebookLM...

The convenience of Google Photos is unmatched, buy any corresponding services.

Mistrel AI is a Clippy compared to ChatGPT and Gemini Advenced. Those companies are burning money on every query, but - until they kill everything else - they are generating tremendous value to the users. Idea that Minsterl would be just as popular if only it promote itself without false modesty is hard to defend.

LibraOffice is free, but google sheet is as well, and cloud-ready on top of that.

Linux... sure, but for the same people free chromeOS is just as good if not better becouse more convinient. With google anything is in cloud anyway, right? Sure, Linux is amazing. But it's not exactly out-of-the-box. And if we count android... And who knows what Fussia will bring?

If you don't want to pay, Google offer is more convinient. If you do want to pay, it's broader and more powerful, all things equal.

Don't get me wrong. It's a trade of worth making. But pretending it's easy and that there are no costs is misleading people. I'm doing it. I'm committed. So far I paying twice as much as I did pay for my tech-stack, and there are still gaps that I lost in the process.

But it won't change, and only be worse if we are not ready to be uncomfortable for a while. It's a diet. If we oversell how easy it is, people will try and go back to junk food in a minute.
