Machado has embraced the United States's indiscriminate murder of Venezuelan mariners in international and Venezuelan waters in the Caribbean Sea. She thinks it will help her gain power.

This is your white "peace".

Yeah I bet Trump is so mad that a woman who opposes communism and chavism, promotes capitalism and privatizations, and agrees with sanctions on Venezuela and wants her country to be invaded by the US, just won. He's gotta be so mad

She's a Guaido minion, I don't get people celebrating this... she wants Venezuela to be invaded by the US, and she wishes the oil industry were privatized...

Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?

TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.

To think that if you are rich then it must means that you are smart is to fall to the most simple capitalist propaganda, I can't believe that after Musk people still falls for it

If you use Firefox:

Go into Settings, in the search bar type "Sidebar" and select "Show Sidebar." At the bottom of the sidebar, click "Customize Sidebar" (the little gear icon) and un-check the "AI Chatbot" box.

i'm doomed to write a version of this essay every single year. i wrote about Matthew Yglesias' intellectual sophistry, LPE, Uber's business model, the problem with venture capital, economic welfare, "economic analysis," and more. thetechbubble.substack.com/p/ride-shari...

Ride-sharing apps are bad, actually

Or why Matthew Yglesias has no clue what he's talking about

“Pedocon theory does not involve secret networks of underground tunnels where adrenochrome is harvested for reptilian overlords. Pedocon theory is not hiding beneath twelve layers of misdirection. Pedocon theory is rooted in the basic politics of the reactionary right.”

We Need to Talk About Pedocon Theory

The connection been Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein is no accident, but reveals a deep logic at the heart of reactionary politics.
