Let's get a bit formal with terminology:
Capitalism
– Means of production are privately owned
– Goods and services are produced for profit
– Prices and resources allocated through markets
– Labor is exchanged for wages
– The state mainly protects property and contracts
Free Market Capitalism
– Means of production are privately owned
– Government intervention is minimal or absent
– Prices, supply, and demand regulate the economy
– The state only enforces property rights and law
– Competition and self-interest drive efficiency
Crony Capitalism
– Means of production are privately owned
– Success depends on political connections, not competition
– Governments grant privileges, contracts, or subsidies
– Markets are distorted by favoritism and corruption
– Wealth concentrates among connected elites
Socialism
– There is no private ownership of the means of production
– Ownership is collective, usually managed by the state
– Profit is replaced by social planning and redistribution
– Distribution is based on contribution, not capital
– Serves as a transitional stage toward communism
Communism
– There is no private ownership of the means of production

Es exactamente así, tomen nota de lo que sucede en Brasil. Me arriesgo constantemente denunciando, ya es un estado de excepción, ponen a cualquiera en la cárcel por cuestionarlos.
Además en la elección de 2022, el partido de Bolsonaro contrato un técnico que analizó las irregularidades de la elección, hizo todo un relatorio extenso y el dueño del partido entregó q Alexandre, quien era el presidente del TSE….
El hdp de ese juez siquiera lo leyó y a los minutos los mandó pagar 22 millones de reales, lo equivalente a 4 millones de dólares, simplemente por cuestionar el posible fraude electoral.
Entienden ahora porque no cuestionan el fraude y si los abusos de poder económico y de datos desde el estado previo elección? Lula descumplio la ley, y con esto se podría anular la segunda vuelta, sin la necesidad de arriesgarse a cuestionar el sistema de votación.
O mundo precisa entender que o povo do Brasil está em desespero e precisa da nossa voz.
Eles LITERALMENTE não podem falar porque correm o risco de serem presos… ou pior.
As histórias que tenho ouvido nas minhas DMs são equivalentes às coisas que você só pensaria que acontecem em lugares como Cuba e a China comunista.
Lula sabe que todo mundo sabe que ele roubou a eleição. Quando um líder perde toda a credibilidade assim, eles precisam silenciar a dissidência por qualquer meio necessário.
Lembra o que Joe Biden fez depois da eleição de 2020, quando todo mundo descobriu ele também?
O Brasil nem sequer tem uma constituição para se apoiar, como os Estados Unidos tinham… e é por isso que eu não vou parar de espalhar a mensagem deles.
Eu coloquei meu número de telefone publicamente e eles baniram meu WhatsApp.
Isso é só uma camada da censura que está acontecendo no Brasil.
Mas, e eu digo isso publicamente, sigam minha página no Instagram @JoeyMannarinoUS e me mandem DM sobre o que está acontecendo.
Encorajem todo mundo que vocês conhecem a fazer o mesmo.
Estou fazendo o máximo que consigo. Sou uma operação de uma pessoa só, mas a voz do povo do Brasil precisa ser ouvida.
Eles podem silenciar muitos, mas não podem silenciar TODOS!

That’s a lot to be happening all at once, don’t you think?
And the USA is having midterm elections next week.
You know, if I was a conspiracy-minded type I might be connecting some dots here. 🧐

💰 Objectif affiché : jusqu’à 10 milliards d’euros par an.
Netflix, YouTube, cloud, jeux dématérialisés… les grands services numériques pourraient être concernés, avec un risque de répercussion sur les prix pour les consommateurs.

Los izquierdistas no entienden nada, por eso son izquierdistas.
O son literales o no leen/entienden la historia o simplemente tergiversan las cosas.
Obviamente todos sabian, incluyendo Keiko, que no se puede clonar lo que hizo El Salvador en absoluto, pero hay un cerro de aprendizaja.
Hay gente normal y luego hay izquierdistas.

Central planning destroys the Earth and everything beautiful about it.
Between 1948 and 1973, the Soviet Union slaughtered 180,000 whales in the Southern Ocean alone, often falsifying the catch numbers they reported to the International Whaling Commission. Soviet ships hunted species already near commercial extinction: humpbacks, blues, fins, and even orcas. They killed them at a staggering loss, processed them inefficiently, and dumped enormous quantities of oil and meat that exceeded any plausible domestic demand. The operation was economically irrational by any measure.
Which is exactly what you should expect.
No Soviet whaling captain owned the vessel or the whales. No bureaucrat in Moscow bore the cost of depleting the stock. The entire operation ran on state quotas, state ships, and state salaries. Property rights price scarcity into human decisions. Strip them away, and you strip away the signal that tells fishermen, farmers, and whalers when to stop. The incentive structure pointed in exactly one direction: maximize tonnage to hit the plan numbers, regardless of long-run consequences.
Private whalers operating in a system of enforceable property rights face a brutal disciplining mechanism: overfish, and you destroy your own future revenue. The Soviet state answered to a five-year plan, not profit and loss.
Garrett Hardin called this the tragedy of the commons. The Soviets ran that tragedy at industrial scale, with military logistics, for three decades. Hundreds of thousands of whales paid the price.

Doing chores as a kid predicts how your life turns out better than your IQ does.
Harvard followed 456 boys from Boston's poorest neighborhoods from age 14 all the way to 47. The ones who worked hard as kids, chores, odd jobs, whatever, grew up mentally healthier and had better relationships. That mattered more than how smart they were or how much money their family had.
Kentrell kind of explained why without meaning to. Coolest man on earth, but hella structure.
A Berkeley psychologist named Diana Baumrind spent the '60s studying exactly that combo. Parents who were warm and strict at the same time raised the most capable, independent kids. Strict with no warmth did worse. So did fun with no rules.
Look at his dad's list. Out the door by 6:50am. Homework gets checked, no excuses. No dishes left in the sink. In bed by 10. Plus a four-week deep cleaning rotation that ends with him hosing down the outside of the house.
Then look at what he gets back. Friday after 6 is his once chores are done. Saturday he can be out on the block till 10 and home by 11. And the Sunday laundry line says Dad will help if he's not working.
Pretty much every rule on there earns him something. An 8-year-old can understand that deal.
When you start matters too. Marty Rossmann at the University of Minnesota went back through 84 kids from Baumrind's research. The ones doing chores at 3 or 4 were doing the best in their mid-20s, and it predicted that better than IQ did. Kids who didn't get chores till 15 or 16 mostly resented them, and it backfired.
Most of us grew up with this. In a 2014 survey of 1,001 American adults, 82% said they had regular chores as kids. Only 28% make their own kids do them.
A kid who was 10 when that survey ran is 22 now. Some of the people in these replies are about that age, saving a stranger's dad's chore list so they can run it on themselves.
Bolsonaro es un heroe como Fujimori si seguimos los paralelos de la tontinagua.
Ambos lucharon contra los socialistas ladrones y asesinos y pagaron el precio.

El judío de Schrödinger, según el antisemita de turno:
1) Somos jázaros convertidos al judaísmo en la Edad Media, pero matamos a Jesús mil años antes. Además de dominar el mundo, dominamos los viajes en el tiempo. Por algo Spilberg dirigió Volver al Futuro.
2) Somos comunistas que quieren abolir la propiedad privada y capitalistas que acaparan toda la riqueza. Financiamos la revolución y la contrarrevolución. Agotador.
3) Somos débiles, cobardes e incapaces de luchar, pero también una potencia militar que amenaza al planeta. Al mismo tiempo cometemos genocidio, el más ineficaz del planeta ya que la población en Gaza aumenta.
4) Controlamos todos los gobiernos, pero nos expulsaron de medio mundo. Para manejarlo todo estuvimos bastante flojos.
5) También controlamos todos los medios, pero ponés cualquier canal o abrís un diario y seguro están hablando pestes de nosotros en general o de Israel en particular. Linda forma de controlar los medios.
6) Nos gritan “vuelvan a su país” Volvemos a Israel: “salgan ahí, ladrones de territorios”. Evidentemente, el destino autorizado para nuestra admisión y permanencia es ninguna parte.
7) Somos un imperio colonizador, pero no pueden identificar de qué metrópoli venimos. Un imperio que habla la lengua ancestral del lugar, encuentra su historia bajo cada excavación y tiene que explicar por qué lleva el mismo nombre que hace tres mil años. Además el imperio mide 20000 km2, aprox lo mismo que Tucumán. Si lo buscás en el mapa vas a ver que el nombre del país no entra en el país. Lindo imperio pegamos.
8) Nos acusan de habernos dejado llevar “como ovejas al matadero”. Nos defendemos y tampoco les gusta, nuestra defensa es “genocidio”. Igual preferimos su repudio que sus condolencias.
8) Somos una raza inferior, pero tenemos una inteligencia superior que controla bancos, universidades, gobiernos y medios. La cosa se pone cada vez más esquizofrénica.
10) Si conservamos nuestras costumbres, no nos integramos. Si nos integramos es que queremos infiltrarnos. Si somos pobres, somos una carga. Si prosperamos, seguro en algo los estamos cagando.
11) Israel es un país insignificante que no debería existir y, simultáneamente, el centro de todos los acontecimientos del planeta. No existe ningún otro conflicto, ninguna guerra ni desplazamientos, ninguna “limpieza étnica” en ningún lado que requiera su amable atención. Hagamos lo que hagamos ahí van a estar puteándonos, por acción u omisión o por lo que sea.
12) Decídanse, muchachos. No pueden atribuirnos todos los males del mundo y encima exigirnos que les ordenemos el delirio. Eso sí, saquen turno con el psiquiatra. Aunque no creo que se sientan cómodos: seguramente también va a ser judío.

Dave Foley was ordered to pay his ex-wife $17,700 a month in child support. That was five times what he actually earned.
If he set foot in Canada, he would be arrested at the border.
When he asked the judge how he’d feed his daughter from his second marriage, he says the court’s answer was simple: “They can rot in hell.”
In 1997, Foley was starring on NBC’s NewsRadio and making about $1 million a year. That year, he separated from his first wife, Tabatha Southey.
An Ontario judge set his payments at $17,700 a month, or $212,400 a year after taxes, based on his sitcom salary.
Two years later, NBC canceled the show. His income dropped by nearly 80%.
He went back to court to lower the payments. The judge said no. The court ruled he had made $1 million once, so he should keep paying like he still did.
His ex-wife lived in a $2.5 million house on a park in Toronto. Foley rented a small loft in downtown LA.
By 2011, he owed more than $500,000 in back payments. Ontario threatened to pull his passport and issued a warrant for his arrest if he came home.
In the video below, Foley explains the math: “I’m paying about five times my income every month in child support, based on a show that hasn’t been on for 12 years.”
He couldn’t work in Canada again until he landed a new sitcom in 2014 and had his paychecks garnished at the source.
The case for the court: a parent shouldn’t get to slash support just because their career slows down.
The case for Dave: locking a canceled actor into 1990s sitcom money under threat of prison is extortion.
Should child support be tied to what you earn today, or the best year you ever had?

Vas en un tren en España.
Un tren que no tiene mantenimiento.
La falta de mantenimiento produce un choque, deja 68 muertos. Tú sobreviviste.
Segunda tragedia igual en los últimos 2 años
Sales y culpas al gobierno español que no dio mantenimiento, y que lleva gobernando 8 años.
Un gay despechado de San Isidro sale a decir que no te escuchen. Porque su ex marido de derecha lo dejó por una mujer, tú no puedes quejarte por casi morirte.

No one in the Soviet Union was arrested for "political opinions.”
They were arrested for “treason,” “sabotage,” or any other crime the system came up with against its political opponents. Some of the charges were even true; others were completely baseless, but that did not matter—the verdict was always the same: guilty.
And that is the whole point. When you do not have the rule of law, as Brazil seems to no longer have, the law no longer exists to punish criminals. It becomes merely a tool used against those who dare defy the system.
