I appreciate the honesty here.

Which is really fucking weird, considering they (Toyota) already made a fantastic RAV4 EV from 1997–2003(!!) and 2012–2014. The second time was a collaboration with... you guessed it, Tesla.

Are there any numbers available for this? I am skeptical for two reasons:

(1) Torrenting is a hassle compared to the streaming services.

(2) Millenials are the only generation tech savvy enough to do that en masse and honestly who has the time?

> Why would you even go all this direction while an easier and more logical reason is that they are fighting for a Palestinian state

Because that would make them freedom fighters, and it’s important to make sure that the Palestinians are never, ever validated in any of their grievances. It’s a key step in dehumanization.

> They operate on a vague sense of envy that someone might be making more money than a preferred class

They operate on the principle that without revenue the people doing the actual work of journalism will go out of business.

Do you think the regulators are wrong on that point?

This is a good system to create mindless drones who suppress their own ambitions and interest and toil away until they die. Fuck that.

> For example, it's been shown that the woman pay gap is largely explained by different life choices rather than sexism.

How were life choices controlled for in these studies? I’m sure lots of black people in the pre-civil rights American South never applied for jobs only given to white people because not getting lynched is a pretty important “life choice.”

Put another, less stark way: if you see no one like you in a certain field, starting as a child, can you really say it was a “life choice” not to pursue, I.e, computer science?
