US may not take Iran under them, but they will grip the Iran's economy by controlling their oil and gas resources. It is what US doing in Irque, all oil sales going through bank of New York, they not only take cuts from sales but also make threats like we would not send dollars if you did not do this and that.

US involvement in the Middle East has ruined those countries. It is not a just middle east where ever they involve they ruin others ex: Trump's Congo deal which locked in their mineral for decade without any benefit to poor Congos

Lot keep grinding leetcode to get six figures and FAANG on resume, most do not have moral compass, they are no different than politicians who get AIPAC money.

Actually this is not specific to rich or US, this is behavior in most of western countries. This started with colonialism, where one consider superior than others in every aspect, so they can do whatever they please. Many are still blinded by this ego, which is the reason for current geopolitical stability. We should understand that sometimes we are the problem. Simon Sinek have great talk with historical example on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWEI9FDf-0g

Problem is even today many people still have this colonial mindset, that some are superior in every aspect than others, which is a shame. Many of the current geopolitical problems stem from this.

Everyone is rooting for wars till we all die from environmental degregation.

All this due to US want to be hegemon, based all around the world. Why cannot live in harmony with others in a multi-polar world?

These things are signs of surveillance economy which benefit very few.

Democracy is just a political slogan, if so called democracy is there, why political leadership favor billionaires over public.

I'm not anti-AI, but I see the where it is heading

* Mass surveillance which suppress the freedom of speech. ex: Palantir

* Dumbing down people so they cannot think for themselves, so the narrator is in control.

* Dropping bombs on innocent so someone can loot resources.

* Huge environmental degradation due to data centers ex: ground water pollution in Texas, desertification, waste dump due to rare earth metal extraction etc. (Earth is already is in brink of a collapse)

All of the above sacrifices just for the benefit of few rich billionaires not for the community. At this point I do not see the benefits outweight drawbacks, if it is to go on, it should be highly regulated, more than healthcare regulations. And also should be community owned not privatized.

Why would anyone support US companies when they have been hoarding data for decades? things specially concerning at current state of the country.

I think bombs they drop on innocents are much more more expensive than $40K. Some think glaciers melting is at point there will be no turning back, record time heat waves and El Niño gives clues about upcoming disasters.

I know many here would scoff at nationalizing a private company

Really? Do US public think like that, no wonder organization like IMF want to privatize national companies.

Heading towards surveillance economy, paid by our foolishness.

I'm not against consumer protection but these moves seem political, Europe hate China just like Russia, they want to counter China economically.

Otherwise why fine out of the blue when this had been going for years.

And what about western countries violate those laws, lobbied or deliberately turning a blind eye.

Does any of these laws matter to rich, given amount of lobbying going on in US?

He is a monster, supporting to bomb children.

There is also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannibal_Directive which was activated in Oct 7. It is simply killing own people and solidiers to avoid capture.

Why would anyone trust him at all? their tech is used to bomb children, all of these rich folks are immoral only about their selfish gain.

I was interested in something like this for while, thank you!

What is their intent with this, for an OS?

Economy is going to collapse with the war anyways. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ql24Z8SIeE&t=247s)

Problems is these likes can be sophisticated which can eat up hours of our time.

This is my suspicion too, it seems to be all tied to Epstein files

Commenters here calculating expenses, this money could have gone to healthcare of people, not to mention lives lots.

How much of that is true

Indeed, they bombed a school with over 150 dead due to incorrect intel. (story is there was base near the school years ago, but it had been moved)

This is natural behavior as a father, specially from Asians. You do not know what actually happened to the kid, we too have done the same.

We know USA and Israel are always hypertruthful about their real goals in Middle eastern adventurism.

Really? Has they talk about bombing a school due to incorrect intel, over 150 are dead with lot of being children. https://news.un.org/en/story/2026/03/1167063

Please read: https://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/02/opinion/how-america-helpe...

What about children and mothers in Gaza, I think that is okay with you!

Let's see what happen when they start bombing Greenland.

I hate violence, but US have too much power, they are in this war for their benefit. Looting others resources as usual.
