Peace deals between countries not at war, cool. None of these deals do anything to address the fundamental issues between the Israelis and Palestinians. They’re just election window dressing for Trump from Bibi and a few Sultans.

And Trump’s economy was just a continuation of Obama’s. The last 3 years of economic growth under Obama (after he fixed Bush’s (frank) up) were larger year over year than Trump’s. So sure by the end Black unemployment was low.

They don’t need a Council. They had a public moment which they played up but didn’t follow through. If the Council had serious backing from the owners they would have sent signals to the players’ group that they wanted to do something.

The Council has literally been around for 4 months. Jesus.

Kazakhstan seems to be handling it ok. They’re going with “Kazakhstan. Very. Nice.” as their marketing slogan for tourism.

Yes, they are using it as PR opportunity. If you actually took the time to read Taleb's thread you would realize that the reactions to the Borat character are complicated with some feeling extreme offense. #CancelBorat is a thing.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/...ron-cohen-trnd/index.html

The argument is that "Borat" uses Kazakhstan as a prop, as a means of illustrating issues in America. But the prop itself is discarded.

Maybe "Borat" helps viewers get to know America a little bit better. But nobody walks away with a deeper knowledge of Kazakhstan. Some might even read that last sentence and laugh. Which, of course, is part of the problem.


But hey, that marketing slogan.

His authority as an academic isn't represented in the tweet though. It's an emotional plea and opinion supported by spurious anecdotal evidence and containing a thinly veiled political jab.

it's the wrong argument.

the problem by design, either willfully or just through being money hungry, that social media distorts and your views and coerces you into believing things you otherwise would not.

the news media just caters to this hyper-extreme audience.

watch social distortion. it's not a left or right issue. your politics doesn't save you from the addiction and control social media has. they simply prey on human nature.

The League doesn’t need a Council to get serious about these issues. They played up the BLM stuff when the moment came and made a big thing about working with the Hockey Diversity Alliance. Once the attention died down they ended up not doing anything.

I have no idea if this Council is a serious thing. It would be nice if it was. I don’t have a lot of faith that the NHL will do much more than issue a few press releases though.

I’ve studied international relations and economics and I’m quite capable of forming my own opinions all by myself. The news media just provides information. The only place where I read the comments of people is here and nobody here coerces me into believing anything because you’re all crazy except Zezel.

The disconnect between people and basic facts in Western societies now is disturbingly reminiscent of Soviet or North Korean situations. But without state control of info! It's crazy. The number of people that buy into poop like QAnon...wt actual (frank)...this some Jonestown poop all through the internet. It's (frank)ing sad. People are as crazy as radical Islamists with the MAGA poop, then the far edge of the left is (frank)ed also. Bad scene. Too much aggro.
