Rhetoric is all that matters right Jack?

That was the goal, but she actually has convictions and doesn't give a shit about the talking points they try and feed her.

They'll probably try and drop her eventually, but they have her so much clout it's gonna take a bit.

I still feel that within the first few chapters of Capital and definitely in his other works, Marx pretty clearly diverges from his influences of Malthus, Ricardo, and Smith. Stating that they all were touching on the truth, but missed it in some way because they didn't understand the primary contradictions of capitalism. Which he is understandable about as many of them were writing during the reign of kings and hadn't yet seen the monster that was capitalist imperialism.

Genius design, after the first shot you won't have to worry about hearing loss again

By that logic, we should just eradicate the rich because they're statistically insignificant and don't really exist if you cut off your axis.

They said they tried to get as many common dishes that contain beef (carnitas tacos for example).

That's a bit misleading, the 12% number is disproportionate beef consumers (>4oz/day).

Overall, 12.2% of adults were classified as disproportionate beef consumers (>4 oz-eq/2200 kcal). In bivariate logistic regression models, disproportionate beef consumption was significantly associated with gender; males were 1.55 times (95% CI 1.24, 1.93) more likely to be disproportionate beef consumers than females. Disproportionate beef consumption ranged across race/ethnicity categories, from 8.2% for non-Hispanic Asians to 14.1% for those who were other/multiracial. Non-Hispanic Blacks and Asians had significantly lower odds of being a disproportionate beef consumer than non-Hispanic Whites, as did those aged 66 years and older, or those 18–29 years, compared to those that were 50–65 years of age. College graduates were less likely to be disproportionate beef eaters than high school graduates. Disproportionate beef consumption was not significantly associated with family income or family size.

From the cited paper in the article

Edit:

They do also say

There also seems to be utility in our threshold for targeting purposes, since disproportionate consumers accounted for 50% of all beef consumed.

Their sample size was ~10,000 self reported

But that's inferred from the demographic reporting so it wasn't the primary focus of the paper. They got that from this graph.

Which has ~35-40% of the population consuming no beef on average which I think is a bit optimistic. Especially considering only like 5-8% of Americans are vegetarian/vegan.

That's the second half of the video

Maybe this bot shouldn't link spoilered stuff

They still do the pressure fried method, which is one of the best ways to fry up chicken and keep it moist.

CW: MeatA video on it

I wonder which developer could be interested in shutting it down... definitely not the country club with bright a bright green golf course in the middle of the desert.

I think they mean societal education. Like the pipelines for educating people about these scams will develop as people get fed up with being taken advantage of.

As for personal education, that would probably happen the first time your $1000 couch starts off gassing a chemical that smells like cat urine after being exposed to a spilled glass of water, or the cushions pop open after someone sits down to hard.
