  • She has been vocal on “Jewish billionaires controlling the world” the whole George Soros type thing, she talked about Jewish space lazers, and a whole lot of other anti-semitic comments throughout the years. You don’t have to disagree with the religion to be prejudiced against it; for example I think the Torah is very problematic, same as the bible, the Quran, the Bhagavad-gita and many other religious texts, and the religious organizations they spawned, I do not find Jews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, or other peoples who believe in their respective religions as the problem except in where their beliefs dictate their politics and are used to supress the freedoms and beliefs of others. That point of view by the overly zealous is seen as anti their religion because their religion tends to want to spread and become supreme, as well as fracture under their own weight, but that just means I don’t want for example the 10 commanents in my public schools paid for by my tax dollars. When you start say all (insert religious or ethnic group here) are something or other or that they control the economy, the media, the world, drink the blood of the innocent, or whatever or take the actions of a small minority of them and project it on the whole that is a major issue and prejudice.






  • Yeah it’s probably like corruption the optimal number isn’t 0 but as close as we can get without hamstringing society. Make it just hard enough so that those who would do it if it was easy can’t do it easily and then you have 90% less corruption. Think of it like piracy, it was big in the 2000’s when buying DVDs was a thing and storage was getting cheap but record labels and studios were not able to update their business model and the easiest way to get most media for the average user was something like Napster. When streaming came along and Netflix had a massive catalogue and was better in every way to cable and same with music streaming platforms at first piracy almost stopped completely and is only coming back due to enshitification. We need to implement a model like Netflix streaming which aligns incentives for politicians to make good policies and not sell out the country from under us for personal gain by making said decisions have actual negative and immediate consequences, be it trading in the stock market while in office or for a ster period of 2 terms after they serve their time in office, being a lobbyist for a set amount of time before or after presenting themselves as a candidate, and enforcing an open period after a law is drafted for public review and ability to lodge complaints and a 2-4 year reassessment of the law to see if it is actually doing what it was set out to do or not and repeal it if not (with exceptions for laws that govern long term policy such as schools where it can take 14 years for the policy to actually show concrete results.
