I think for many people, myself at least, the issue is not anything health-related. It's just one word: Monsanto.

GMOs are cool, but being unable to gather the seeds from the crops and use them next year really isn't.

Spaghetti sauce is just tomatoes and spices. It gets ready by the time the spaghetti are cooked

As people living outside the US know, these bubbles (like 2008) don't lead to a crisis of their sector, but of the US economy at large which in turn, very unfortunately, affects everything else. Wall Street is held up by the Nvidia/OpenAI/Oracle holy trinity, and once that crashes it's not only taking LLMs and GPUs with it

Capitalism, especially late stage, requires to keep "creating value" and more "territory" (money) to grow into. Printing dollars and using cryptocurrencies as collateral is just doing that.

Yes, it started when they gutted the non-profit oversight and charter. The illness is called capitalism.

The US is actively pushing every ally away, what do you expect?

What? Do you really think the US would enforce that by shooting down civilian airliners?

And management will lead by example right?

...right?

Trespassing what? Are even bus stops private property in the US?
