I would like to see it before I believe it.

Good luck though, hoping the Dems win.

(I am not a US voter, so I have no influence on the outcome)

I agree, especially since interest rates are currently relatively high, it's quite OK to remain liquid these days.

If you can't even understand that I am obviously not including things like stock splits, then I don't think my comment was intended for you.

Timing the exact top and bottom is impossible, but you can always sell at an all-time high and buy at a 52 week low.

Personally, I find it more effective for myself if I frame it in terms of "owning the most shares" instead of "making the most dollars".

If I started with 100 shares and now have 200 shares, I consider that a win, even if the 200 shares together are worth less than the 100 shares were at one time.

Wero will become the replacement over time.

But for now, you're stuck with Visa and Mastercard if your country doesn't have a local alternative.

Just get the cheapest option.

The point is to kill and torture these people. Calling them terrorists is a tried and true tactic.

They will call him Hamas whether he confesses or not and then say they killed another Hamas terrorist.

They would immediately nationalize Microsofts Europe operations and the crack would be an official patch signed and released by Microsoft Europe.

No sick ASCII art though.

Historically, incompetent authoritarians tend to resort to violence to retain power. (recent example: Maduro in Venezuela).

Yes and no.

For non-cloud stuff, the EU would quickly legitimize cracks that circumvent anything they would try.

For Cloud stuff, they can more easily turn that off, but then they would need to forfeit all their EU business and assets.

Read up on Orania. The South-African government doesn't harass those Afrikaners trying to have their own little closed community.

And honestly, I think that approach is the best. If right wing people want to self-segregate in gate communities without harming anyone, then I think that's the least bad option.

They hate a strong Europe and Canada the most, because a liberal world order is the biggest threat to their Big Tech Gilead goal.

Once they start imprisoning and killing prominent American intellectuals, the remainder will seek asylum in Canada and Europe.

Russia and China are their buddies, the hate for China and sanctions on Russia are performative.

But the hate for Canada and Europe is real.
