This is yet another trick to make us look at penis worms :P

Even if queer on the graph means “anti-frat”, classic rock would play in frats, and Janis Joplin would get included. Abba is not so popular in frats by my stereotypes.

Dolly and Janis Joplin on extreme queer end too?

America is ruled on Israel first politics. Media is Zionist. Politicians who just mention “ceasefire is good” got record primary funding against them, even if those that lost never made Israel an issue against them. The rest of American oligarchy influencing politics sides with Israel instead of fighting with them, because usually Israel doesn’t take much of the budget. Israel becomes the kingmaker. Trump is favoured by Netanyahu maximalists, but all politicians take a loyalty oath to Israel/AIPAC.

Ranked choice voting

This is your only recommendation that gives alternate parties a chance. It would need a campaign focus that Israel first rule/money of the Republicrats disqualifies them. Media would need to be nationalized, other “lobbyists for evil” would also need threats to be nationalized. UBI/Freedom dividends is more important than democracy, because it redistributes power to the people instead of hoping for a hero to fix everything.

We can’t escape genocide because we can’t escape money in politics.

But surely the biggest problem in America is that oligarchs pay too much taxes /s We too will be welcome into the oligarch club, and who tf wants to pay 21% corporate taxes when we get there. Like why bother ruling over all of you, if we will have to pay taxes?

Police usually find vehicle owners quickly when they have plate numbers. If car/owner is not home, then they will often tell public to be on lookout. They could have said colour/model or picture of Volvo if that is all they have… maybe they have all the info they need. Maybe they ask public for help later. Vehicle ID is usually enough to catch someone quickly.

Not clear that vehicle has been ID’d from that story. Says Volvo, but no specifics known. Is ID from another source?

The US claim on TSMC, are based on it using ASML (Dutch) equipment which has patent licenses from US. I was just answering the puzzling US colonial power roots. There may come a point of challenging the colonial patent power, while still attempting to pay for the patent, or China’s “delete America” program may get more allies or rebellion from the colonies.

China/BRICS is a much bigger market than US, and economics means figuring out a way to earn from all sides is motivated. US promises to isolate itself even more under Trump, and there is a limit to how much it will be respected.

China’s overall refining volumes are down significantly since middle of year as EVs are surpassing 50% market share there. Also while NG use for electricity is down, they are converting a lot of heavy transport to use LNG. In the future this will transition to H2.

This is a year of major climate progress, and even the west is inching forward.

Another possibility is that the opposition parties unite to form the government - the largest one, the Constitutional Democratic Party (CDP), won 148 seats up from 98 previously.

But that is a more unlikely scenario as Japan’s opposition parties historically have faced difficulty in uniting or convincing voters they are a viable option to govern.

Extremely strange conclusions. If they won the election there is no “convincing voters” step for parliamentary alliances. I don’t know if BBC is displaying outrageous favoritism, or if Japan is truly weird.

Both China and North America weaned themselves from coal mostly due to urban pollution concerns. India has the advantage of going straight to renewables instead of the intermediate NG route. One of the most successful EV promoting policies, that happens to be free, is cities restricting ICE license plates to certain days of the week.

EV models now cheaper than ICE vehicles even in the west is the best incentive of all. India foreign policy shifting towards closer tie to China and away from US is certain to accelerate Indian manufacturing sector/investment: https://asiatimes.com/2024/10/why-modis-shifting-away-from-us-toward-china/

I don’t know details of space contracts. Seems SpaceX has more capabilities, and so on merits, could be argued to get new contracts or replace underperforming contractors. It got paid to fix Boeing failure, for example, despite Musk being all in on GOP. The bribe level favouring Trump is sure to outweigh Bezos influence on top of merits.

“We need to have the firm support of our European partners, of our American partners,” Zourabichvili said.

Imagine if Trump said this after the election loss about Russian and Israeli partners?

Russian influence could have helped, but calling it propaganda is traitorous. Especially when embracing west’s warmongering demonism. It is possible to take a constructive opposition role that is in favour of expanding Georgia’s trade and liberalism without the ambition of turning it into another Ukraine. The nazi dynamics of Ukraine don’t exist to fake a liberal revolution, and CIA agencies have been kicked out of country.

US law permits US control over any company in the world that uses US technology.

that seems to be Israel’s SOP

this is not binary solo :P
