Not even from business standpoint. Or maybe I'm misinterpreting the bottom line, but a business should be conscious about it's business model.

Why do people go to reddit? Funny memes and great comments. It started to become boring when the people started to act like bots (echochamber), now it's mostly bots echoing arguments and memes of past. With your restaurant analogy, it is more like they started selling the support beams instead of product.

Yeah, but saying the dems are better is kinda moot. They assisted to the rise of rhis monstrosity. It was a reaction to nothing ever really happening. People got fed uo and swindled. Dems are deep state, republicans deeper.

The problem is, people got swept up by popular hate instead of feeling the Bern.

Kudos to anyone finishing that article. While it summed up most of the situation pretty nicely, I have a few nits to pick.

The biggest one is that the article sets Orbán up as a mastermind. While he is definitely waaaay more clever than his New World counterpart, he doesn't have his finger on the pulse and has never had Hungary's best interest at heart (or at least since 2010). The team does do a crazy amount of polling, but they also just use the old trick of fearmongering through media. Hungary is very EU-positive, so they have to work tooth and nail to make Brussels an outside enemy. During the Syrian humanitarian crisis he saw the opportunity to play the xenophobe card, but betting on fear of 'the other' is ruling 101. Anyhow, still better to think more of him than underestimate.

Also, Magyar Péter is best defined as a tool. In like 99% of the meanings. Most of us wouldn't trust him as far as we can throw him. What worries me is that the meta isn't changing, at least on Hungarian reddit. Users or trolls downvote any topic that wants to discuss anything besides the best case scenario. This seems detrimental to risk management.

The most probable solution is the grayest one. Tisza takes over to an extent, Fidesz is still locked in (economically, in the foundation), and we need to put aside personal political preferences just one more time. This way Fidesz loses the choke-hold of Europe, as Hungary becomes deadlocked with itself (as we tend to). Fico steps up as the Russian veto, or they find some heinous way to interfere through that horrid patriot party. I mean this is still one of the better outcomes. Anyhow, don't forget to hug your Eastern European today. They proabably need it.

You either deliberately or accidentally misinterpreted the joke. I kinda connect the "woosh" to the adult animation show Archer, but I might be conflating it due them emerging around the same time.

Naw, they aren't totally wrong. I mean take any kinda superpac, and see the influence. The problem is, they voted for a swindler, who is only there to further his own goals, not dismantle anything (well, besides soft power).

I mean most others will skip out on the toothpaste variant, but yeah, it's out there like that kraftwerk song.

Naw, I'm not giving Trump a cent more than he deserves. He is as good of a troll as anyone before 4chan could get, but he has nothing else going for him.

I am more concerned about the background service. Like who were the ones that composed the newest sandwich bill? I feel if we get caught up in just the emotional part (he is trolling the whole world, after all), we won't see the actual harm being caused behind the scenes.

It feels that even this proposal is only there to distract from the actual harm being caused.

I just don't really understand the bigger picture. Like why are Trump's handlers letting him get away with this? Which group would benefit the most, if the US's general purchasing power went down? I'm thinking more Waltons than Putins, but it just doesn't make sense.

While I do see there is a healthy limit to conspiracy theories (looking at the chief of Health), I cannot imagine people wielding actual power wouldn't stop this lunacy if it weren't in their interest for some reason.

Because those times are over.

If you want to start a diner and pay fair wages, you will need to charge so much that people will go elsewhere. Or some shit like that, I've never really owned anything.

Living in squalor is bliss compared to whatever 996 might mean.

It would be more appropriate from Europe to count all the environmental harm corpos like Cocacola get away with and simply start taxing based on the extra strain they cause to society. Give a number and just not budge. It is not hard to deal with this man.
