If only the US had the balls to keep these trillion dollar companies in line instead of the other way around.
I feel like your point is almost excusing it. Just because the corruption is working doesn’t mean it’s not corruption.
Always remember what comes first in any national emergency. Whats the first thing our leaders always make clear when the chips are down?
"We will do everything necessary to protect our beloved nation society struggling citizens ECONOMY."
People don’t matter here, only capital. If you are attached to meaningful capital, you will want for nothing and live in embarrassing decadence that would make pharoahs blush, if you aren’t attached to meaningful capital, you are livestock for those that are. You are less than human in the eyes of the capital hoarders in charge.
Those are our American Values in practice.
The US absolutely has the balls. They’re currently bound and being used by the corporations to lead us around.
Yeah, we should probably say something about how they treat us, but God damn if our politicians don’t have the biggest fucking orgasm every time a billionaire compliments them.
“The US has the balls.”
Ah yes, that’s why the government is on it’s knees in front of these corporations … because it has balls… yep, the government sure has balls … on it’s chin.
I feel like you didn’t read my comment since we’re essentially making the same joke. But funny comment
Definitely need to do more, but, consumers could choose android over apple. Apples walled garden bullshit is why the only apple devices I’ve ever had were a couple of old school ipods and various Macintoshs going back to the IIe.
It sucks moving platforms. I did it going from blackberry to android but with android I can buy any phone I want and it’s mine to do with as I please and plenty of phones have community support to keep an android version updated and secure.
As someone who’s only owned Androids, it’s just a different walled garden. It’s a duopoly instead of a monopoly.
You can’t really own your phone whatever you do. Even if you root it all your important apps like banking ones will stop working so there really isn’t a choice.
Android is a walled garden that has a gate with a latch. If one cares to put in the effort it isn’t terribly difficult to root Android and strip the Google stuff.
Apple is a walled garden that simply has empty void on the other side of a 4 foot thick concrete wall. Jailbreaking has limited results and an incredible amount of DRM is integrated at the kernel and hardware level that can never be removed.
…who also ditched the 3.5mm jack.
Sorry. Couldn’t resist. Irks me way too much.
