Absolutely astonishing, and yet entirely not surprising at all

On the other hand, reflexive contrarianism is, as the economist Adam Ozimek puts it, a “brain rotting drug.” Those who succumb to that drug “lose the ability to judge others they consider contrarian, become unable to tell good evidence from bad, a total unanchoring of belief that leads them to cling to low quality contrarian fads.”

    What do you mean by “too many too quickly”? If it’s about immigrants, I don’t see how it’s actually relevant here. Police attacks mentioned in the article (and that were happening in general) were against black/minority French citizens, not newly taken in immigrants. Plus the police force itself doesn’t consist of immigrants.

    And Europeans becoming poorer is a wealth redistribution problem first and foremost (with an aging population sprinkled in).

    Sure, there are shitty people amongst immigrants, but in a similar proportion to the amount of shitty people in general. It’s not the reason. Kinda looks like shifting the blame.

    This is the first I have heard of transwomen breastfeeding.

    Sounds incredibly complicated vs having a wet nurse/milk doner

    ZephyrXero , in Donald Trump dominates Turning Point USA straw poll

    I’ve been telling people it’s gonna Biden vs Trump in 2024 unless he gets put in jail. But I really don’t want to be right

    zombuey OP ,

    whats annoying is news regarding Trump gets downvoted here even if its center or left leaning which is really bad thats how you get echo chambers. people need to stop downvoting shit just because they don’t like the news.

    ZephyrXero ,

    100%. I’m as sick of hearing about him as anyone else, but we’ve got to stay informed on what he’s up to unfortunately

    @4am@lemmy.world avatar

    Yeah, agreed. I hate the fucker with a passion but we can’t just turn a blind eye or he’ll be ruling us before we know it. Then we’ll never escape.

    @Barns@lemmy.world avatar

    Unfortunately, not only are you going to be right but Trump will most likely win… Biden hasn’t done anything meaningful enough to sway center leaning uninformed average Joes to the left

    graphite ,

    center leaning uninformed average Joes

    That’s quite a generalization

    InverseParallax ,

    This will be controversial but I hope so.

    The only reason we got Lincoln was because the know-nothing party imploded into their own insane conspiracy black hole.

    We need the GOP to consume themselves so a sane replacement can grow out of the ashes.

    LostCause , in Europeans Are Becoming Poorer. ‘Yes, We’re All Worse Off.’

    This reads like DARVO - Corporate Edition with a derogatory jab towards free time and unions both.

    I work 30h now too and thus I suppose this is aimed at people like me, but tell you what: the job I applied to was actually only approved by HR/payroll for 30h max, the company doesn‘t WANT to pay more than this and they knew they wouldn‘t find anyone experienced to sell 40h of their life for such a measly salary.

    So we managed to find a mutually beneficial agreement, I get to live and exist like a frugal monk, perpetually renting and never owning anything (the European dream!), and they filled a position at 70%, pocketing 30% of the salary they would have had to pay to attract a full time worker.

    Now, how is it my fault I can’t spend like an American and the economy stagnates then? It‘s maybe a shared responsibility, but truly, the company is the one in charge here and if they told me I have to work full time and get that 30% more pay too, I probably would (since I kinda like my current job oddly enough and don‘t want to switch again yet).

    Arotrios , in Biden's election war chest trails Trump's in size, filings show
    @Arotrios@kbin.social avatar

    The article is a bit misleading as it's only comparing presidential campaign amounts, and Biden is only $2 million behind Trump ($20mil to $22mil), but combined with the Democratic Party accounts, he's at $77 million. Trump still has to face a contested primary, Biden is unlikely to face any serious challengers.

    What's more interesting to me is that Trump has pulled in less than half of what he had at this point in the election cycle last time around ($56mil). This clearly indicates that the major GOP donors have pulled their support, at least until he wins the primary. While it's unlikely that money will flow to Democrats, I think it indicates a willingness on their part to sit out this cycle until the GOP gets its finances in order. No one likes being ripped off.

    zombuey OP ,

    very good insight. I am not sure that the article is misleading as much as its just stating the facts without speculating further.

    SheeEttin , in Donald Trump dominates Turning Point USA straw poll

    86% of attendees for the Tuning Point Action conference in Florida supported the former President.

    You mean people at a conservative meetup support a conservative candidate? Wild.

    zombuey OP ,

    vs other conservative candidates but yes.

    lemmyshmemmy , in EU seeks to revive Latin America, Caribbean ties as it turns away from China, Russia

    Good, China had shown it’s not trustworthy.

    skhayfa , in Europeans Are Becoming Poorer. ‘Yes, We’re All Worse Off.’

    Americans are becoming poorer. 'Yes, We’re All Worse Off." A middle class overworked by its CEO set the stage for economic regression. Then came greedflation and federal rates increases.

    fearout , (edited ) in Airbnb is adding cleaning fees to a new 'total price' of bookings in search results after people complained listings were misleading
    @fearout@kbin.social avatar

    I’ve been using airbnb for month-long rentals across Europe and I still haven’t found a good alternative.

    There are no hotels that offer even remotely similar apartment size/price ratios. And I prefer apartments specifically, living in a hotel for a long time is just weird. All my airbnb hosts for the last two years have also been great. Btw, all were actual apartment owners, so none of that corporate crap. Many were helpful showing interesting places or best restaurants/shops around the neighbourhood.

    On the other hand, local rental services and websites either have listings that start at 3+ months, or are completely unreliable, either taking weeks to reply or changing their mind on price or availability a few days before the arrival date.

    And airbnb in Europe had that checkbox to display the final price since forever, so you’re not getting unknowingly ripped off anyway.

    Is there something usable besides airbnb for 1–1.5 month long rentals across EU? At this point I’m not sure if it’s even a good idea to look for one.

    TenderfootGungi ,

    It is different in Europe because of stronger consumer protection laws.

    player2 ,

    Vrbo is another option but more geared towards vacation rentals.

    Personally I’ve had good experiences overall with Airbnb but it takes research to find the good ones from the suspicious listings.

    They really are going to try to win a Public Relations War against a group of people selected SPECIFICALLY for their charisma and likeability. Wow.
