  • This was true before the last 2-3 decades of globalisation, outsourcing, diversification, vertical integration, private equity, consolidation, and monopolization.

    30-40 years ago most established sectors had a dozen brands across cheap, mid-market and expensive tiers. Most of the expensive brands were expensive because of consistent quality or niche. Nowadays the dozens of brands are owned by 2-4 multinationals, and there’s barely any brands left that haven’t been plundered and bled dry in the eternal race to the bottom for short term profit.

    Pre GFC the US had 50-100 banks above a moderate size (can’t member). Post GFC there were like a dozen left; nowadays there’s probably half as many.

    MAGA and fascism are not simple bullying. They are not “politics”. They are a mental illness epidemic.

    These people have had their logic corrupted, like a neurological virus. They can’t explain Trumps policies or what he’s done to benefit them. They don’t even care. They just have “faith” in the closest thing to Satan they’ll ever see, for absolutely no reason they can logically explain. They are insane, and a danger to society.














  • What they’ve achieved is irrelevant. They’re never gonna achieve 99.999% with standard cameras + AI for decades. Elon can’t magically manifest the safety of Lidar through hopes and prayers; yet he believes he can, so the only logical conclusion is that he’s a complete fucking moron con artist, only skilled at separating people from their money.
