  373. "Racism" is unacceptable because we are all literally the same species, and therefore treating others as inhuman or implying one is some how less than another person becaust of skin colour is factually wrong and morally wrong because we are all people. These are LITERALLY different races (also fictional)! And they have actual differences in this fantasy world. How do they not see they are now CREATING new areas of racial tension because they... want to be relevant? Same with hating on some black actor for being too pale. That's bigotry. This company is getting second-and-third degree offended to what? ...Over a century past irrelevant stereotyping, where groups were described as having beast like tendencies, is only giving weight to racism that it would not have in this day an age if people didn't remember that even happened. It's like hitler, He was a terrible man, but if you don't let him become a joke and make him forbidden like voldemort his name will always have power over people who weren't even directly victimized by him. Let the name become something else and fade into irrelevancy. But these "activists" who search for every vaguely similar situation or term and project everything into it. Like if you said "what are you an ape"? To anyone who was being hamfisted. It'd probably be a gasp moment. Just like if you said "my timing is too retarded ...I need to advance it a few degrees". Like apparently... "slope" is a racist term, if people start that word use we won't be able to "hit the slopes" on a ski vacation. The word functionally no longer means that negative connotation. The only time it might is if some actual racist tried to degrade someone with that... but then they would most likely just be confused not upset. If no one was trying to drag these back out of the closet, and flying them like flags, no one would know or care or use them.

  786. 1. No it is not always best, we will go to 2 and then come back. 2. As answered above, generally acceleration in lower gears is more efficient due to mechanical advantage in gearing. At higher gears you have less torque so you must dump more fuel in to produce the torque needed to increase the speed (then there's also engine and drivetrain momentum). (Back to 1) So when you are accelerating or will need to accelerate and you are in a high gear, you are wasting a lot of fuel due to the increased load. However, cruising on a flat surface you want a higher gear (eventually there are diminishing returns) because at lower gears your engine's speed must be much higher to maintain that speed (engine speed is related to, though not the exclusive determinate of fuel use). You want to seek the balance point where the engine is spinning as slow as possible, while doing as little work as possible for the given speed (if you plotted them on a line graph you would find an intersect). If you look at torque curves your engine's torque will sharply increase after a certain rpm. If you let the rpms drop too low the torque will be bellow that which is needed to maintain your speed and the engine will stall. If you are "lugging the engine" as described, you are pushing it to the limit of what it can do, and that makes your engine sad, and everyone else angry. Forced induction changes the curves so it will affect where the point of maximum fuel efficiency is , otherwise it is largely the same theory.

  1075. I am still surprised how many people didn't realize the absurd overtones in season 1. They even convolutedly made a supposedly strong and honorable character buckle to doing sexual favours for a job in the first episode. Talk about trying to hit all the 'present day' narrative tropes. Also, a 'white' infantile entitled man at the top with a superiority complex and an inability to do his job. Oh and he basically had an Oedipus complex just to drive it home. As it went on it just got worse. In Season 2 or 3, they diverted the plot and tossed in a bits about black people being "kept down" despite the fact the man making the comments: Edgar is the head of the most powerful and evil company in the world. You know in lock step with the insanity that occurred in the US. Despite the fact the same hypocrites writing it made every black character a stereotype after that. They even made the guy in the black suit, black, "because black". Then there was the whole Nazi plot line where they just painted everyone dumb and bad as trump supporters. Not that it wouldn't have some analogies given the zealotry and propaganda, as with many leaders. But they way they went about it was clearly more focused on sticking a knife in, than making it believable. Anyway, it would be a great show if it wasn't so hell bent on attacking the audience. Hell I will give them props for making it watchable despite all of that (for the most part). Just build characters to be good characters and don't force them to do things out of character just for commentary on current affairs. You can build a situation like current affairs and have them react in character, but... just the way every single thing is handled... like, "Don't do this, bad people are doing this and the bad people only do bad things, therefore you are bad if you do this, get it?" (unsubtle). ...Sorry for the rant. It is just, appalling and disappointing, it could have been amazing through and through.

  1431. Equity is "both fair and just" that's what people actually mean when saying equality. That is how the systems were being designed (granted the US always lags in social change). But these days that word is being misused to actually mean equal (or more than) outcome and not equal opportunity. The 'pay gap' has been proven broadly false, another misrepresentation by hyperbolic 'news' (of course with specific exceptions that need to be addressed). In other words they are arguing things like this deal are equity, when in reality they are objectively, equal outcome or better. For example, something we would take as fair and just is if two people are offered half the apples they pick in a day. If one person slacks off they would get less, and that seems both fair and just. Correct? Now imagine, person A picks one apple, and relaxes in the sun, but by the time person B returns at sundown person A is hungry again and sees a massive pile that person B is taking home. They then demand half of those apples as they both spent the day 'picking apples', if they get them that is equal, but it is neither fair nor just. Now if instead of effort the factor was skill. Say person A&B built widgets for the same amount of time every day. Person A has a lot of practice and can make 300 in a day; person B is new and only managed 50. If they were paid the same that is equal outcome again right? But it's not fair and just (unless society ignorantly decides that equal outcome is fair and just arbitrarily, like altering a definition. Then by assignment it would be regarded that way and fiercely upheld as the 'norm', but it would still remain measurably unreasonable.). Because what it does is make a citizen, by law based on a trait at birth, in a position of objectively greater advantage because if that person tries as hard as the others they will always come out on top (unless by illegal act, like theft, or real discrimination. Which should be litigated). That is exactly the opposite of an egalitarian society and NOT what we desire or had been working for. Regardless of what group benefits from that elevated status.

  1788. David's take on 'cancel culture' is just willfully ignorant at this point. He deliberately creates the biggest strawman for a set of behaviours anyone can see happening, and he himself was subject to. Only this is on a much larger scale. Fox News' version of 'cancel culture' is also absurd, but I expected better from David Pakman. When a show is cancelled that is literal cancellation. But to be caused by 'cancel culture' (as people are seeing it done) the fundamental aspect is the concerted effort to tear down someone's life beyond merely their job based on objective performance measures or what is reasonably acceptable. There is a widespread trend of hate mobs trying to exact justice of their verdicts based merely on differences of race, opinion, religion, or association. In otherwords discrimination. It's one thing to say, this person is unprofessional, they shouldn't be working, or they should get training. It's another to say Chris Pratt goes to a church I don't like, I am going to harass and bully him and anyone he likes or associates with and actively campaign that he never work again, and they never work again. Even for merely not going out of your way to declare support for something a random user requested can be the trigger. It's objectively a thing, it's visible, and it is measureable. However, neither David nor Fox is reporting on it objectively. Fox is greatly over applying it and using it to suit their political views and false narratives (as Fox does). But in not wanting the appearance of giving them any credibility David is doing the same thing by exaggerating the concept and dismissing the objective truths.

  1795. Here's the thing. I know very few companies are actually run well, BUT... There is efficiency in consolidation but there are limits to what should be done to maximize profits and minimize costs. For example, rolling Crunchyroll into HBO max... doesn't make sense. Taking it's best series and adding them to the collection on HBO max, that makes sense. Leveraging efficiencies across streaming platforms, that makes sense. Specifically, sharing systems, personnel, content, advertisement, and operations, that makes sense. You don't need 4 marketing departments, you don't need 4 different video players/software licences, server farms, etc. HOWEVER, these are significantly different market segments and you have to compare the cost/benefit of shutting down CR entirely. How many of their customers are actually going to move to a hugely more expensive service that isn't exclusively the same content? Some may, but many will not (be it globally or locally). Then you would also need to ask, how many HBO max customers from CR would keep a CR membership in addition if they only took some of the titles? In business, it doesn't make sense (though some still do it) to abandon profits (profits not revenue). If they look at this and think ok it's still better to drop CR, then you consider what the consequence may be of allowing an opening for a competitor. And is it going to cost you more than just keeping your place in that segment? My suggestion to Disney, Warner, et all. If you want to be a giant corporation you need to leverage that better, not just be a web of inefficient smaller companies. But dumping IP may help with short term cashflow in a buyers market, but that's not how you succeed long term.

  1982.  @harleyhawk7959  That doesn't necessarily mean exactly what you think it means based on product labeling rules. Products could even merely be assembled in the US depending on the rules. @RAR I am aware of some high quality tool manufacturers in Canada. However, I am not aware of any power/battery tools made there. But yes Dewalt is probably your best bet but... they got really expensive for that reason (and because people found they were actually decent). At the end of the day it is probably most important where the profit is going, which would take more investigation. For example, for cars, Honda is a Japanese company with many models made in the US & Canada, employing their workers. But FCA/Dodge is largely built in Mexico. Which supports North America, but tends not to have the same quality so they can save on costs. Which means more profit ...going to FCA not USA. So if there is a company selling products from China but a larger portion of the item's price is staying in North America (than one assembled in North America with global parts), buying the import may be better. But then there is a question of whether it is employees or owners getting the money and whether or not that is more likely to support the economy based on who is spending it (and subsequently, where and how they spend it). So at the end of the day I would say you might as well just buy the best product that works for you. Let your demand shape the competition (as long as there are competitors for that item).

  2055. You have to look at this from the perspective that this is a group of former enemies that are now a part of the country. If you want to assimilate a group you have to make concessions like, giving recognition to the dead and the people who fought for them unless you want an uprising and more conflict. I suspect, most of these things were done/allowed with that in mind. A few generations down the line it's not going to matter as much, but if you start attacking the group (the regions that were a part of that) you start getting them gathering together against those attacking them. If you start heavily antagonizing people for being the children and grandchildren of _ then you are going to upset them because you're attacking their family (even if their family is deserving of criticism) and chances are, they themselves are not deserving of such vehement attacks. Even outside of the region such significant attacks on moral integrity like calling them racists merely for having a flag on their vehicle (likely because they liked dukes of hazard), they wouldn't be bothered by the label if they didn't think it was wrong to be racist. Now you have an even bigger group that starts to cluster together. The biggest issue now, is for anyone who started out as mainly a bystander to start adopting the more extreme views of those they have been pushed into a corner with. This applies to any group. Never moving past issues, only causes rise to more. One of the best examples is how hatred of and excessively punishing Germany created a path to WW2. Now in this instance, war seems absurdly unlikely. But any time a person is attacked for something they had no part in, be it a family member, a friend, or an acquaintance, it is discrimination by association. If the media didn't make a big deal of these things, or the masses didn't start labeling everyone a racist for what started as merely disapproving of vandalism, they probably could have phased a lot of these out without anyone caring (except history buffs, or the odd person who is a kkk member). Should it be phased out for unity, yes. Should it be erased from history? No. If they took statues/flags down and put them into museums, it would probably be amicable. But once you try to ban something you're making a metaphorical martyr of it, and getting upset by long irrelevant symbols, historical figures, etc. Gives those things more power than they should have over you, and more power & recognition to any splinter group that remains.

  2271. Look, no matter where you land this was a tragedy, fluke no, but unfortunate at every angle. From this part of the world, every time we see an American cop pull out a gun immediately, we aren't surprised "mr. cowboy" shoots someone (that is the common term). Now, by the laws of the state it seems lawful and may not have even been intentional. But here, you don't pull out a gun for shoplifting, you don't do assault with a deadly weapon to get someone out of the car, you talk to people. You maybe smash a window and drag them out if they are excessively beligerant. The police would have first blocked her departure with a squad car, before the confrontation. Things are just handled very differently start to finish. We have very few police shootings and even fewer police deaths. There's a time and a place, grab the plate, follow her home, wait for her to return and have handcuffs waiting outside the store whatever the protocol may be. When you waggle a gun in someone's face they are likely to be shot, not just if they don't comply. Now, again, assuming she had stolen something she shouldn't have tried to drive through the officer. But this anti-police rhetoric is creating these situations. People get told not to cooperate, and I can barely blame them for wanting to run when they think all cops are racist murderers. But If the cop fell wrong he could have died been crippled, who knows. So he has a right to self defense. Could he have gotten out of the way, yes. But the law of the land is the only authority in a civilized society.

  2391. If we get right down to it the conclusion, as inconvenient as it becomes, for the ethical standard will inevitably be that upon becoming a genetically separate lifeform, it has rights. Now expressing and limiting the rights is where you get into the mud, especially because the US is a society of individualism and a fetus or zygote is completely dependent. Regardless, as with children they are given no say and therefore require protections (but no protection should be infinite). Just as a father currently has inescapable responsibilities to their offspring. Steps can be taken safely to find an alternate host (or stored while waiting) before a certain stage. Like with anything else, after that stage there should be responsibility for not dealing with the matter in a timely manner (and getting into the situation to begin with, if voluntary). If you don't transfer the pregnancy before doing so becomes a matter of life and death for the unrepresented party, you should have an obligation to deliver it (though not to raise it. A government system should be in place for that). If in the event of a complication, requiring a decision to save one or the other, the default should be that the party with the highest survivability should be saved (unless self-sacrifice was explicitly stated by the party with capacity beforehand). No matter the circumstances of conception the unborn is innocent in this, and its life is inarguably fully affected in the handling of these matters. The arguments against which are equally applicable to a fully dependent infant, the only difference is, we see them and can feel more empathy. Other options exist and whenever they can be done safely then they should be. Inconvenience is never a good excuse for denial of rights. One may have other opinions, and that is fine at the end of the day it is the most popular opinion that gets adopted and not merely my own. But I do seriously believe that this is how things will conclusively be done be it in our lifetime or in another few generations.

  2500. Look this situation wasn't handled well esp. by Trump. BUT... There are consequences to shutting down the country, both monetary, and casualties. I don't have the numbers so I can't say at what point one outweighs the other. However, it is still something we need to consider (the consequences, and deaths both direct and indirect from combatting the virus in this manner). Turning a blind eye is negligent. How could this kill people well. In the short term it won't kill many but, there will be people becoming homeless as a result of job losses, some won't recover. There are at risk individuals with mental health issues where (we all know, isolation is the worst possible thing for them) and there will be an increase in suicides as a result. Limiting access to healthcare that is independent of the virus treatment, will also cause problems/deaths. Then there's starvation risks. Again, job losses affect the ability to feed ones self as well as shelter. Not only that, not every individual has a kitchen in their dwelling (as sad or absurd as that may be), if restaraunts shut down. They just won't be eating. Not everyone has a nearby grocery store, if they can't take public transit, and restaraunts won't deliver, they may not be eating, or it's still winter and there is then an increased issue of cold related injury, illness, death, and if they are outside all the time commuting for groceries, they're increasing the Covid transmission risk. So even if people aren't losing their jobs immediately from the virus, a lack of opportunities resulting from the massive economic downturn resulting from the shutdown may mean no-new opportunities for a long time. Which means more opportunity for these issues. It is something that is extremely difficult to measure, but it is still an issue. These things are always a number's game, and failure to plan ahead could potentially cause more harm, than doing nothing. (again it's a possibility, I don't have the numbers and I am not saying we shouldn't take these distancing precautions).

  3539. Here's the thing about 'systemic racism' the term was chosen to be impactful, inherently abhorent, and in most cases that's making it out to be more than it is. However, when systemic decisions are intentionally planned to harm a specific group, that is racism flat out. So when someone makes a law trying to supress a vote of a certain population, that is in every situation I can imagine TOTALLY INEXCUSABLE. However, when you have societal norms, or innocuous decisions which inadvertantly affects one group more than another, that is a systemic problem that may need addressing, but it is not 'racism'. For example, you choose to give away 5 items to the first 5 people to enter your store. They all happen to be caucasian. Do they need to take them away and only give them out to the first person of each colour? Is that more equal? Is that more fair? That just makes the odds of winning dependent upon your skin colour, and that is racist. Now on the otherhand, if you decide to only provide post-secondary education to the highest scoring students but education is a known issue in a... hispanic community. 1) the education issue NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. But until then, that is unjustly favouring more wealthy and other ethnicities of citizens. So, 2) The system needs a way of balancing scores relative to their school of origin. But if the system is working properly there won't be just one ethnicity who is affected by poverty or poor education facilities, and those accomodations will be made for everyone in those situations.

  3806. Personally, I like to take the approach of confronting the problem immediately before it becomes an issue. Then progressively responding more firmly if it is neglected and becomes larger. But where I am from, many have become so accustomed to complacency that an unjustifiably large problem is created by merely making mention of a developing issue. Because 'YOU' are the problem, for creating controversy (addressing the elephant). I get that in many cases people may over-react to small problems, and as a result of their nitpicking or controlling behaviour an over-sensitivity is developed. So reflexively any criticism may be percieved as a personal attack (especially post ~2012 where 'negativity' is so condemned, and to which even constructive criticism is frequently equated). But as we all know, a likely problem with a risk of substantial detriment is better resolved sooner, and hindsight is an unforgiving b!+¢#. So in order to increase the success rate, I usually try to approach it as delicately as possible. Often, posing thought provoking questions rather than statements. (Too indirect and you are brushed off, too direct and there is rigid defensiveness.) It doesn't take a lifetime to experience these situations from either side, and I also know possibility doesn't equal certainty. So I remain flexible initially, because it is most important that solutions and safeguards be made, not simply adopting my own ideas (for they may not be the best one anyway). Anyway, with the extensive essay I have bored you with out of the way... I have a feeling my approach does not fit in Japanese culture either. While it may favour net benefit and minimizing consequences in advance, it is also distinctly more confrontational. In the unlikely event someone else reads this, what are your thoughts? What is your approach, and how do you think it would mesh with Japanese Cultures? Do you know where would be a good fit?

  3980. So, while I assume your assessment under the law is likely correct, I would not be able to agree about the comparison you make for 2 reasons. 1. In your example, there is no realistic possibility of the gun being real, loaded, and with a round chambered. Where as, in this case she knew she had both a gun and a taser. The risk of drawing the wrong one was always there. Further, she has a duty to take the care needed to avoid such mistakes. 2. She intended to use potentially deadly force which is a reality with both rather than absolutely no intent to harm (or possibility of death). Granted the differences in risk of death are substantially different between a taser and pistol. Now, you have also said, that would be justified by the law in this case also. In that case merely unintentionally grabbing the wrong one is the only wrong doing and doesn't change that the more severe action is justified. I don't suspect she got a lighter sentence than the other police officer because of race. Most likely it was because of the significant contextual differences. However, if there was bias, it would be more probable that it be based on the fact she was a woman (which is supposedly a thing that happens often). I think we need to be training officers and changing procedures to better handle situations (in a way that reduces risk of mistakes and the necessity of shooting suspects). Not only for the sake of the public, suspects, and criminals, but obviously for officers as well. Even if they don't get punished, no one wants to have a situation like Al Powell.

  4516. Here's the thing people don't understand, Guns are expensive to manufacture so most of the firearms used by individuals for hunting were originally designed for A millitary at some point (not even necessarily in the same format). Similarly, when a country goes to war it tends to source firearms from wherever it can, so even guns that were built entirely for hunting/sport have been used by a military or police force at one point or another. You don't Even have to look internationally for that. In WW1 Canada bought locally made 'Ross' sporting rifles for their military. It is unfortunate reality that there are legitimate necessities for firearms in Canada. Ours is a country filled with dangers and remote land owners who cannot rely on police for their personal safety. The world is not some Utopia, we cannot burry our heads in the sand and pretend bad things don't happen. There is a war in Ukraine right now between two large 1st world countries. We cannot rely on someone else to save us from a bear, you can't even guarantee the Canadian government won't jail you for defending yourself against a r@¶!$+. I don't like people dying, I know it is most often avoidable, but this law isn't even talking about that. We are talking about firearms that aren't generally used by criminals, making a show of banning them and ignoring the hard problem of actually reducing crime, and preventing would be criminals from accessing the guns that are already illegal. Plus they aren't interested in deliberately excluding airsoft which fires plastic pellets as a competitive international sport. A sport that is even legal in countries that outright ban all guns.

  5474. This kind of highlights what bothers me about how you say, (roughly) "Guns and ideas that fail, fail for a reason. There's a reason we have what we have: Because it's better". However, there are many cases where you say "this is the exception", enough that in that respect alone the initial concept may not be as good a rule as stated. In those other cases generally by your own telling it isn't because this unique idea is hugely flawed but because of all the other complications surrounding a new product launch. For example as in the case of the pin-fire, a firmly established competitor or norm can hold back a new idea. "dead ideas, should stay dead, they're dead for a reason" is a dangerous generalization to make, and often impedes progress as much as focusing too much on a lost cause (the hard part is always determining which is which). There are an astoundingly large number of more modern technologies now recognized (or in the intermediate) to be vastly superior, but had been proposed much earlier and failed. If each technology was given the same development cycle as the ones currently used many, many, more abandoned paths would be the accepted way now. "This gun just wasn't reliable", well was it the core concept, or the execution? Look at the Auto-Mag. So obviously I am not saying we should go out and re-do everything. However, to say it isn't even worth investigating is probably a mistake (for firearms or more broadly) lest we miss an apex technology. Especially now that manufacturing/design precision has vastly improved.

  5842. "Let my western ignorance explain to you the facts of your familiy's homeland". When your argument is, "we need to hold grudges because some people aren't as well off" You have lost the plot. 1. Your baseline for comparison cannot be a modern western society it has to be what that country was, what it is, and what it might be by looking at other countries of similar situations without European colonization. 2. If the logic is that you have to keep holding a grudge because there is something to hold a grudge over there will never be a satisfying resolution for anyone, and you just perpetuate it indefinitely. People ruin their lives obsessing over vengeance, it's not a good place to be. Let it go, you will feel better. 3. We know historically colonialism wasn't whole heartedly opposed. Many at the time appreciated the education, the sanitation, the farming techniques, the tools, the weapons for hunting. Imagine if in 100 years time people demand reparations from your children for that time you scuffed their wall while helping them move furniture. Yeah it was worse than that, but fundamentally your children owe no burden for their parents debts and crimes. Pursuing that regressive logic will lead to a resurgence of lifetime indentured servitude. Imagine if doctors chose not to tell patients of a terminal but treatable diagnosis, to spare their feelings. Now many may not like the British government or the abuses of power and negligence of certain individuals along the way. But who does!? People in Britain don't even like their own government most of the time. Do you punish the citizens? No. The only thing we can do is learn from the lessons of the past and strive to improve accountability for the crimes and overreaches of today, and most importantly... prevention.

  5998. The problem I have is none of the major parties are interested in the significant shift in approach that would enable Canada and its people to prosper. We have some time still before the election to come together and make a new party. Cuts or debt alone will not fix the issues, both are required, but It's long past time Canada starts developing its resources and change its approach to international trade, and support canadian businesses in their dealings abroad rather than simply increasing barriers for foreign companies. (Though the government has over the years allowed far too many large canadian companies be bought out by foreign conglomerates, especially china) Canada also needs to start bringing in less educated people to do unskilled labour jobs, instead of people to fill roles Canadians already fill (as a population with a post-secondary education rate). While it provides immigrants with with opportunities, it reduces those opportunities for Canadians. Shifting to bring in labourers to perform the jobs current Canadians cannot afford to can help reduce costs while providing more opportunitied for immigrants and Canadians alike. Selectively populating areas within the Canada allows affordable living and development in under developed parts of the country. Think of the vast neglected infrastructure that could be improved using more affordable labour. During their contracted work term foreign labourers could improve their language and education. So that when their contracted term ends they can apply for residency and pursue whatever career they would like wherever they would like. Basically it's a targeted nationwide work experience program that dramatically lowers the bar for those dreaming of moving to Canada. Producing more mid and top level opportunities for existing Canadians along the way.

  7606. Ok seeing the video you have to consider the situation. There was an active riot, where people were known to be killed and seriously injured, that alone should be considered an iminate threat. But he chose to be there for 'allegedly' the defense of others. Now he was being chased by a violent mob, several of whom were armed, and there was no way of knowing of the others were also. It doesn't matter if in a split second they were facing a different direction they were still a threat and if he was not aggressive he would have to risk likely harm or death to discover that. After firing his weapon, an angry mob tends to feel even more justified in an attack. The attempt to disarm him after such violence could only be interpreted by a reasonable person in that situation, to be further threat (especially if that weapon would then be used against themself). But regardless, the situation, until resolved was an ongoing threat, if he needed to fire his gun to keep it so that he can prevent being killed by another armed individual. Note he didn't (despite the threat) fire on the person with a blunt instrument, or the man whose hands were in the air. (Also note the photo or convenient still) was of the man in the tan shorts did not drop his weapon or keep his hands up. I don't know if he had fired at him previously, that would be important. He also shot at his arm (perhaps in an intent to disarm, depending on testimony). 17:41 the frame where he is getting behind Rittenhouse, He has regained a firing grip and appears to have his finger on the trigger.

  7710. Kneon... Your idea of bend the knee is pretty unusual. I know it's easy to get caught up in the narrative with US media, but... Having every country institute tariffs on the US isn't exactly bending the knee. And eventually those effects will show themselves. These countries wanted to have discussions immediately because the president just violated dozens of trade agreements (several of which he oversaw and applauded). Negotiating wasn't a question, if he just asked that's the outcome they would get. Instead of having an intimidated and individually weaker economy to negotiate with, he now has hostile negotiations and everyone together will have a stronger bargaining position than the US alone. I get each time there was backlash they want to craft a narrative but they do conflict with eachother and it's clear the president's advisors don't have much sway, to convince him how to do it most effectively and with the least harm to American businesses and citizens. Have any of you read the art of the deal? It's a mix of very basic stuff hammed up like it's novel/genius, and absolute garbage. Remember when Iger had a master class? Imagine that but more egotistical. I feel bad for you guys in the US, if he gets flustered and these tariffs get enacted or intensified, you can't just avoid buying all foreign products. Everyone else just has to avoid US products getting price hikes, for you guys can't avoid tariffs. (Tariffs that have to happen to bring jobs back, but really it's about improving the trade deficit, but really it's about fentanyl, but seriously this time it's about China so it has to happen to everyone, but sike! we're actually pausing because I am crippling the economy and driving businesses and investment away.) No one gets hurt more than you guys. It's bad for China sure, but China already had companies moving out due to subterfuge and agression, now the Whitehouse is driving everone back to China. Japan, Korea, and China pledged to increase trade dispite security risks. The EU just met with China to discuss opening their market more. Anyway I genuinely hope things don't get to crazy for everyone over in the US. Things could get really bad. Keep an eye on the auto idustry, it's usually an early warning.
