President Bukele and a zoomer Democrat representative who went to El Salvador to try and get the MS-13 terrorist Maryland Father released are having a Twitter war over the latter's love for gang members.

It started with Bukele retweeting an old tweet where the Congressman talks about being in a gang:

Sounds like good news to me. When they shut down everything in 2020, they already exposed how weak our supply chain system was since it was so depending on Just-In-Time shipping. I always hated that, but that's another symptom of the scam fiat system. Burn it all.
Just in time was part of the ISO push. There were threats floating around about being taxed on inventory, so the Japanese kanban/kaizen shit was going hard in the early 2000’s.

Where I’m working now, I haven’t heard a reference to ISO standards in eight years.

ISO was also sneakily designed to facilitate export. It basically existed to get everyone to document all their manufacturing processes in painstaking detail. We thought at the time it was so the boss would have something to bitch at you about, but it was really so the chink would know what to do.

When I got into machining in the 2010’s, the push was for everyone to adopt solidworks so engineers who thought their jobs in america would be safe if they sold out machinists could feed solidworks drawing direct into CAD/CAM software for foreign machinists to run.

The joke was on everyone

But no, not a global cabal. That was part of venture capital thinking they found their own money printing machine.

The influence that multinational corporations have on governments can look like the governments are colluding, but China was still always careful about who got an actual piece of the pie and who they straight up lied to. Everything that got outsourced to them had the IP stolen
 
I'll just repost this.
The chinese are human cockroaches. Maybe even worse than the Jews.
If you want a real experience and entertainingly written book version of this 4chan rant I HIGHLY suggest Poorly Made in China. Written by a white dude that lived in China that worked as a go-between with brands and Chinese manufactures. Really good introduction and interesting deep dive on how the Chinese screw with people and their mentality.

I can attest to this. Most foreigners I know who do speak Chinese don't advertise it because they will get roped into extra duties, also admins not knowing they understanding them allows them to eavesdrop and actually know what's going on because Chinese admins are never straight with you.
 
I am generally supportive of new media organizations, but some are simply retarded
I never watched Tim Pool, all I know is the scandal involving money from Russia.
Maybe, just maybe, don't invite him? There are better people to invite

Why does the Trump administration always shoot themselves in the foot? They start strong, but end up doing the most retarded stuff.

Tim Pool is impotent. He won't bring the administration down. But he is a wasted seat in the cuck corner.
 
he is a wasted seat
He is an easy target to attack. Why is the Trump Administration inviting someone connected to Russia disinformation campaigns? This will be the line in the MSM and on social media

I don't think you need to play respectability politics 100% of the time, but it does make things easier to deal with.
I have talked with some borderline-TDS relatives and defended the inclusion of new media and shake up of how media is included. I am not going to defend Tim Pool being invited for the simple reason that it is retarded to invite anyone linked to Russia, convicted or not, while the story is still relatively recent.

Lauren Chen was the one who actually played ball with them, hence she disappeared.

If there was anything related to that, that Timmy could get fucked with, he would’ve been fucked before trump got into office

So ?

Do you honestly think the media sperging on beanie man would actually move the needle in any meaningful way ?
 
This is the one thing I hoped RFK would do in his position. ITT and others, Kiwis have discussed the negative impact these artificial days have on people. So, I'm happy to see the news these are being phased out - hopefully once and for all.

It will be a good day when my student loans are finally paid off. I can imagine lots of people just didn't resume payment when they unpaused student loans. Bad move, at least petition for a deferment or something lol
I don't think most people realize lenders/creditors don't want to deal with people going into default on any sort of loan to the point that a number of them are willing to work with people having a legitimate hardship that prevents them making the full monthly payment. Whether its a deferment, extended payment terms, etc. there are plenty of options available.

Unfortunately, everyone got too accustomed to the COVID era when student loans were paused and extra unemployment gibs were the norm. They were so excited at both that they refused to prepare for the day those would be discontinued. Now, they're all pikachu-faced at being told it's time to start paying back the money they borrowed as per their promissory notes. It's part of the bigger trend where nobody wants to honor or respect their commitments.
