Labor productivity has grown faster than real wages
And this is supposed to be a good thing?
Okay I don’t like talking like this, but what part of “to a much lesser extent” do you not understand?
Which is why I said “to a much lesser extent.” Mass shootings are on the rise in multiple European countries, as are homicides and hate crimes. I mean hell, France is looking to restrict knives over this stuff. Having a non-broken society contributes a lot more than what murder weapons are available, and now that European societies are generally fraying at the seams murder rates are unsurprisingly rising.
I mean we’re seeing this in Europe with mass shootins and such, though to a much lesser extent than America.
You’ve probably heard this a million times, but why not learn a trade?
(“Want to hang out tonight after school?” - 授業後今晩遊ぼう?
Minor nitpick: 今晩 is a pretty formal term; 今夜 is used instead in everyday conversation. Also in Japanese you’d only specify the moreimportant of the two timeframes, either “tonight” (今夜/夕方) or “after school” (授業終(が)終わったら), not both
I mean something tells me that’s one topic that wouldn’t be appropriately covered in schools, but that’s just my guess.
I mean that’s hopeful, but remember that the New Deal also came against the backdrop of the height of socialism in the West and the labor rights movement. Modern Americans don’t have the organizational strength to make such a compromise attractive in the eye of the ruling class, and they don’t seem intent on ever having it.
They’re not talking about a new deal as in a new status quo after this whole mess; they’re talking about the New Deal and are hoping for more of that.
TL;DR for the article: Pretty much all federal social welfare programs and worker rights in America were established as part of the New Deal. Think if Bernie became president with a cooperative Congress.
Monty lane problem.
We already have a model of this with Israel’s genocide in Gaza wracking up a climate footprint bigger than entire countries. Scale that up to a world war and… Yeah, not fun.
Okay that is literally not true. First, Ash’arism is also rationalist so yeah no. Like you do know many prominent Muslim scientists from the time period were themselves Asharite right? Second, the Islamic golden age didn’t die due to the power of religious figures; it died due to the sacking of Baghdad and continued right up until that moment. This happened more than two centuries after the creation of Ash’arism, and again many important developments happened in the Caliphate in the interim. Third, the Timurid renaissance came about a century later in a mainstream Sunni Muslim (so definitely not Mu’tazilite or some such) empire. In short:
It is inevitable that the religious mind either abandons their faith, or abandons science.
That literally didn’t happen.
Ultimately, if god existed and created everything… science would be another form of worship.
Yes, as clearly stated in the Quran, that is literally the point.
Sorry my people’s more than a millennium-long history doesn’t conform to your preconceived notions, but can you please not make shit up? Here’s a Wikipedia article. And in the first place, Arab distrust of science is a much more recent phenomenon that came after centuries of Ottoman neglect and is fading away right as we speak despite some of the most conservative mainstream theologies in the history of Islam.
Given how well that worked with Russia, yeah don’t expect much help.
It was religion that got them there.
That’s… what? Like do you think the Assabids were atheists during the Islamic Golden Age?
That’s… hopeful…
I can’t stand that this piece of shit gets to dictate what most of the world does in their own fucking countries…
Eh, the only new thing to most of the world is how obvious he is about it.
This isn’t the community for discussion-type questions. You have asklemmy and politics communities for that.
Trying to justify their bajillion-dollar AI investment I see.
