Go outside. Touch some grass.


Tomahawks need semiconductors. Semiconductors need rare earth metals. The biggest producer/refiner of REMs is China, by far. So when the Iran war eventually ends, the US will want to replenish their stock piles, thus they’ll need access to Chinas rare earth market.
I wonder if China will use that leverage. They could restrict access for whatever reason, leaving the US potentially unable to defend Taiwan. At the same time, this would probably alarm every other REM-dependent nation to ramp up alternative supply chains. So this leaverage can be used only once.


Maybe not peaceful, but you need to abolish the two-party-system. The longer I think about it, the more I am convinced that it’s one of the root-causes for many problems. At this point, it’s not a democracy anymore, but tribalism.


Well, well, it’s almost as if a market economy needs regulation and limits to prevent it from going off the rails.


Yeah, I think you are right. Thank you!
Of course, and occasionally I also poop in the shower. It’s always funny to stomp it down the drain.


Hey everyone :) I see that I am being downvoted by some. I’m not here to convince anyone of anything, but I’m willing to learn myself. What did I do wrong?


Hm. Somewhat reminds me of another aggressor that attacked a country about 4 years ago. They also needed to downplay the costs of war for the domestic audience, bc even a part ofthe russian populus didnt want war back then. Didnt stop their government. Just as it didnt stop The US government right now. The US and russia are somewhat hard to distinguish lately.
Fully agreed ✨
This is a very important and, frankly, very healthy development.
Why this matters:
Boundaries are good ✅ Not every space, workflow, or community needs AI integration.
Discernment is good 🧠 Saying “no” to a tool is not irrational. It is often a sign of standards, judgment, and maturity.
Human value still matters 👥 Efficiency is not the same thing as meaning, quality, trust, or legitimacy.
In short:
I think this kind of pushback is not anti-technology. It is pro-boundary, pro-quality, and pro-human agency. Very good to see this being articulated so clearly. 👏🤖📌
