Texas Nonprofit Hires Biden Transition Official - Then Lands Half-Billion Dollar Contract To Manage Border Crisis

Non profit is the biggest scam on the 21 century.

Akali · 2021-04-14T15:50:19+00:00

You've got some great point there. I feel like it goes together though. If they both increase the requirement to be a teacher, had IQ test and provided higher wage, it could become a proffessions of merit.

I'm thinking of thing they do in Ireland where in the 60 place in the Senate, 6 chair are only elected by University graduate which give prestige to university degree. They also give many specific group specific voting rights such a farmers and fishery or local towns.

If we want better teachers, we need to make it worth it for the ambitions and talented. Because right now, it isn't.

Akali · 2021-04-14T12:40:09+00:00

Agreed, IQ create inequality for carreer and productivity, same for physical look and the dating market or for good genetic and hereditary disease. It's impossible to get rid of all inequality and if done it would be through tyranical coertion.

Akali · 2021-04-14T12:37:01+00:00

Kids need to understand that teachers are not paid that well compared to the private market. Therefore, teachers are those who have failed their carrier, failed plan A, plan B and are now at plan C because they have a doctorat.

Always take with a grain of salt what a teacher says, no matter which discipline.

Search peaceful protest and you'll see them all, then you select one. You search looting with the location of the event and you've got yourself a goldmine of violent looting.

Still missinformation, but it's all there available to the public.

Akali · 2021-04-14T12:29:40+00:00

Like anyone with a reasonable mind. The fact this is seen as some strange article worthy event is what's disturbing.

Good attempt at obscurity, department of homeland security

Akali · 2021-04-13T11:36:42+00:00

Vice aren,t a news network, they are a lobbyism network.

Akali · 2021-04-13T11:28:54+00:00

''segregated diversity'' What does that even mean?

Akali · 2021-04-12T17:36:49+00:00

Many conspiracy are true, but many more aren't. The problem is they don't use empirical data nor identifiable sources nor repeatable studies to justify their point. I agree censorship is a bad solution because they actually might be onto something, but one cannot just give them credit without proper sources.

Akali · 2021-04-12T12:29:24+00:00

I mean, if the vaccine ID are required to vote, then why not.

Akali · 2021-04-12T12:12:54+00:00

I mean, I just looked a bit at his video and you're correct, it sound conspiracy like, but censorship is made to be abuse and shouldn't be taken lightly.

Akali · 2021-04-12T12:01:58+00:00

"you've had more opportunities than blacks who are at a similar economic level to you" Base on what evidence? The problem with that rethoric is that it is baseless. Anytime you run a regression on wage base on Geolocalisation, education, gender, ethnicity, personality treats such as asertiveness, age, hours work per weeks, social circle size, whether or not the parent are still together, IQ, presence of mental illness or not, presence of physical disease and any other factors. When you correct the linear regression for auto correlation, heteroskedasticity and functional form, you end up seeing that both Gender and Ethnicity are not significative with p-value above 0.2.

You could argue success isn't just wage, but ethnicity has nothing to do with it and nor does gender.

I cannot provide you with the data I use because I'd be breaching the confidenciality agreement of my workplace so I won't try to convince you of it, but I have yet to see any evidence of systemic racism.

In fact, the only systemic racism there might be is affirmative action because it is base on skin color instead of poverty level.

Akali · 2021-04-12T01:30:47+00:00

Europe hate fascism so much they keep going back to it.

Akali · 2021-04-12T01:28:05+00:00

Record number maybe, but it still less than a hundred so... meh.

Akali · 2021-04-12T01:23:35+00:00

Doesn't sound like a bad idea if you ask me.

Akali · 2021-04-12T01:09:07+00:00

When a few criminals highjack the BLM movement and the BLM movement don't call them out, don't critize them and don't condemne their action publicly, they are accepting to be highjacked and end up supporting these actions.

As for my ancestor, not every Irish folk owned slaves and there's still slavery today in africa, but let's not talk about history because it make the popular narative look bad. The british were the first to abolish slavery. My anscestors fled war and were low class, to have some random blowShmoe tell me I'm priviledge because of my skin is utter bullshit.

Akali · 2021-04-11T18:14:19+00:00

BLM supporters are racist and want instauration of racist laws such as affirmative action. They blame everyone else for their own misery and pretend my anscestors are slaves owners while I'm irish. They want privilege and are willing to steal, loot and murder to reach their goal. They are the definition of a terrorist organisation and should be put in jail.

Akali · 2021-04-08T12:11:28+00:00

I don'T see China attacking Taiwan. There's already a pro china party in Taiwan. It'S much more likely that they'll increase their financial support to that party. The drill in the south china sea are for the islands they are building, not for taiwan.

Akali · 2021-04-07T12:25:35+00:00

The government are a not for profit mafia.

Georgia is racist toward Necromancy confirm.

Akali · 2021-04-06T13:05:04+00:00

How can the people still vote blue as this point? And then they claim blue voters are more educated. What a joke.

Akali · 2021-04-06T12:52:23+00:00

I feel like you are not talking about wallstreetbet.

To be fair, the astra zeneca is so innefective against the south african variant that they stopped its distribution to anyone under 55 in Canada because even the corrupted gouvernment think it would be a waste of time. 10.4 % effectiveness.

Source : https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/covid-19-vaccine/news/20210317/astrazeneca-vaccine-ineffective-against-s-african-variant

Also, Anti vax has nothing to do with a new experimental vaccine. i'm 100% pro vax when it comes to old vaccine approved by the FDA. The covid vaccine have yet to be approved, they have been autorized, not approved which tell a lot about them.

I envy those blood clots the astronomical effectiveness of the Astra-Zeneca against variants. Can't wait for my turn!

Akali · 2021-04-04T13:02:32+00:00

I'll have to admit though that I think the Bost to the front are funny most of the time, even though they are spam.

Akali · 2021-04-04T12:56:54+00:00

I think ''Bost to the front'' is more romantic.

Akali · 2021-04-04T12:29:32+00:00

I actually disagree. If /u/Magnora7 start debating publicly, people will start random drama just for the fun of banter and will waste his time.

the more time he waste debating, the less time he spend removing spam.

Even if I'd like to see him banter with you, it would be unproductive for the website.

Akali · 2021-04-04T12:21:11+00:00

Reddit isn't free anymore. it's a Quora 2.0 for random question with restricted answers.

If you want cooking receipies or wonder what movie to watch, reddit will help. Beside that, it's corrupted to the bone.

Welcome to said it. Here you can pretty much anything. There's people from left to right willing to have discussions.

Akali · 2021-04-04T12:11:06+00:00

/u/magnora7 isn't ruinning the website. If you count all the good thing he does (remove spam, bots, publicity for the website to growth, ...) versus the few bad ones (Getting rid of the color from the updoot and smile button). He's doing way more good than bad.

As for the Iron left, if the only Astroturf they did was in the Bost to the front, then It would be fine to me, but they astroturf many other random post.

Akali · 2021-04-03T13:33:37+00:00

It probably to finance illegal operation so it's not recorded.

Akali · 2021-04-03T13:24:23+00:00

I feel like propaganda was always the point of the news. It's just that with the internet, camera on phone and wifi everywhere, we easily see through the bullshit the news show us.

I feel like there should be a more clear distinction between editorial and reporting. Reporting is usually fine and decently done. Editorial is the disease.

Akali · 2021-04-03T12:24:28+00:00

Technically as an admin rules doesn't really apply to May. But I agree that admin should show higher standard otherwise they give the impression of a conflict of us against them which isn't a healthy relationship for a website.

Akali · 2021-04-03T02:37:20+00:00

That's quite sad. I thought they were funny.

Akali · 2021-04-03T02:08:50+00:00

Is this for real? Wait, is bob banned as well? What is happening with this site? Is this a late april fool?

Akali · 2021-04-02T13:02:20+00:00

Reddit has been banning and censoring any right wing opinion and subreddit for the last 3 years.

There's nearly no right wing people who waste time on reddit anymore since they know it will be censored.

Europe is slowly doing what the USA should be doing.

The real question is will we need vaccine passport as voter ID?

Free speech is the right to say what others don't want to hear. Words are meant to transmit information and no one should be punish for using them.

Akali · 2021-03-28T13:03:09+00:00

Sounds to me like a way to introduce draconian affirmative legal covenants on internat social media platform and crush the competition through absurdly high fixe cost of agressive censorship and moderation.

Akali · 2021-03-26T18:14:57+00:00

He's not different than 90% of US President in history. A Puppet.

The only difference is they others were doing a better acting jobs.

That's naive.

The Republican are too big to fall just like the democrat.

Akali · 2021-03-26T18:08:03+00:00

Hold on, being Irish makes me not white? What?

so since I'm half Irish, half german does that make me half white or double white?

History class in school for children don't teach useful history nor phylosophe, they teach endoctrination.

To be fair, Skin color isn't a race thing either, it's just Melanin pigment in the skin.

100'000 years ago, you could have argue there were homo erectus with homosapiens coexisting. But that time is long passed.

Today it's more about communism hiding under the ''concept'' of ''people of color'' and when you look at that picture, that islamic dude has color in his skin. The only people who lack coloration in their skin are Albinos people.

The entire post modernist ''racism'' is just Communist vs none communist being rebranded as melanin Ethnicity based hatred.

Akali · 2021-03-26T12:17:27+00:00

I'm not sure if it's hard to code, but how about a Quaranteen sub where all the ''removed'' get stored in.

so if someone want to know what was remove they just go on s/Quaranteen and then realise it was a spam? It could stop all the drama.

Akali · 2021-03-25T13:51:39+00:00

I can understand the rational behind that argument, altough I desagree with it.

Akali · 2021-03-25T13:48:58+00:00

''toxic masculinity.'' What does that even mean? Like Being radioactive or some shit? I tend to not give a shit about trans people. I see it as a none issue. But That ''toxic masculinity'' is such a weird way to say stuff. Some people are toxic, some aren't. To claim someone is toxic because he is a man is like saying there's a correlation between the two and that's some crazy misandry.

Akali · 2021-03-24T13:53:20+00:00

I mean, reddit has stopped being reddit in 2018 when it it began the banning spree after changing its user agreements.

What we see are just ripple effect of the 2018 ban. It's still a useful forum for stuff unrelated to politics. If you seek cooking advice, you'll find good cooking advice. Same for books to read or music to listen to or how to learn to play guitar.

The platform is showing that it doesn't want to be on the spotlight of the media. subs like Watchpeopledie were strange social experiment, but those days are over. Now reddit isn't a social experiment, but just a Quora 2.0. Take it at what it is and move on.

Akali · 2021-03-23T16:02:53+00:00

You must not often go outside if you think that's how most Canadian live. Nothing's wrong with protecting yourself from the cold. In fact, it's the rational approach.

Akali · 2021-03-23T16:00:08+00:00

In Canada we don't need mask outside. Only inside. Also, it's easier to have everyone wear mask than having someone judge if those who don't wear them are healthy or not.

Akali · 2021-03-23T12:23:43+00:00

Problem is, the rich control the gouvernment. So they won't get tax. Instead we'll all get more poor through inflation.

Because with inflation, even if you're wage go up to fight it, it will make you jump tax bracket and pay more tax.

Akali · 2021-03-23T12:21:51+00:00

That's interesting. Comments should increase their ranking as well. This way it would be easy to see which comment are from bots and which one aren't.

Akali · 2021-03-23T12:18:44+00:00

In Canada during winter, everyone have their full face covered because its cold. The mask just change the texture of what cover your face from the cold wind.

Akali · 2021-03-22T20:21:40+00:00

If mask are as useless as you say, why aren't doctors working without them? N95 mask reduce the covid spread. They don't stop it, but they reduce it. Mask have low efficiency, but that efficiency isn't 0. Yet their opportunity cost is nearly 0.

Akali · 2021-03-22T20:18:23+00:00

You've got a point, it should require email confirmation just to slow it down.

Akali · 2021-03-22T20:16:40+00:00

Mask are low cost and reduce the contamination. same for washing hands at the entrance of shops.

Lockdown cause unemployement, massive debt, inflation and unemployement is strongly correlated with higher mortality rate.

Lockdown is like getting rid of an ants infestation by burning your house.

Akali · 2021-03-22T16:03:26+00:00

Almost as if the pentagon is in favor of chaos to justify more financing.

/u/magnora7 how about having more mods? Because right now, the front page is just filled with these.

Akali · 2021-03-22T12:30:40+00:00

I'm 400% anti lockdown. But I can't go behind anti-mask. I just don't see the argument agaisnt mask.

Akali · 2021-03-22T12:23:45+00:00

The weird thing about these wookies is they don't seem to realise the private market only care about the color green. And green is sweet.

Akali · 2021-03-21T20:34:02+00:00

Point is, it would be way easier to convince the masses of no lockdown with mandatory mask than no lockdown and no mask.

Akali · 2021-03-21T13:11:20+00:00

I'm always confused to see the anti lock-down be anti-mask. Shouldn't they be pro mask and anti-lockdown? Like, pro hand washing and-anti lockdown since these are meant to reduce the spread at nearly 0 economical cost. Aside from being good looking, wearing a mask is cheap.

Akali · 2021-03-21T12:39:36+00:00

it's either .net or python programming on the picture, yet no mention of them in the article. Journalism

Akali · 2021-03-21T12:35:27+00:00

Sadly true.

Akali · 2021-03-21T03:54:16+00:00

Almost as if 1% increase in unemployement lead to 2% increase in nationwide mortality rate over 2-5 year lag.

That's something which annoys me. Even if we make the hypothesis that no internatioanl intervention or mass fraud occured, the only parameters which changed during this election are the mail in ballots. By design, mail in ballot allow lower security for higher accessibility.

So in the unlikely event that everything in this election was as secures as all the others, this parameters alone make it less secure by design. So there shouldn't even be a debade about this. They chooses accessibility over security. Now, is it 1% less secure, 0.0001% less secure, there could be a debate about it, but it isn't more secure. There are no demonstrated parameters which could have make it more secure.

Akali · 2021-03-19T16:35:21+00:00

Well, still no answers so I suppose I was turned down as well. You were correct.

The truth is women mostly apply to job they have the qualification to do. While man apply to w/e.

so men are more likely to get jobs where they are underqualified while girl are more likely to get jobs where they are overqualified.

Hold on, ''Was the only one who actually wanted to help'' ? Does that mean you are seeking mods? I'm not always there, but I look at the site about twice a day and I sometime see those weird X upvote / X smile in 15 min post with no comments about a publicity for a random application which are obviously bots so if you want a hand in clearing the frontpage, I don't mind helping.

Akali · 2021-03-16T13:48:30+00:00

Akali · 2021-03-16T13:45:44+00:00

I can see that. In fact, you don't sound far left to me, but more center left.

But since I'm center right and most people here are moderate right wing, I guess you seem far left to them.

Akali · 2021-03-16T13:42:58+00:00

Totally agree with you. The best part of saidit is the many uncensored opinion.

Except a single troll who spamed the same word filling the message box, I've never blocked anyone.

Akali · 2021-03-16T02:38:00+00:00

The data is from the Global wealth report from the credit swiss global wealth data book by Anthony Shorrocks, James Davies and Rodrigo Lluberas from the london school of economics who are known economist who have publish many peer reviewed reports.

The article and the analysis it provide aren't peer reviewed, only the data they reference.

Akali · 2021-03-15T11:12:33+00:00

I'm really cut on the abortion question. A part of me see the economical advantage of having it. The other part see how it's wrong moraly.

But I have a tendency of going the economical way since a mother who will want to abort wouldn't be a good mother to begin with either because she's too young or not ready or simply doesn't want child. So the child will have a higher probability of becoming a weight for the society. Often abortion are with monoparental mother and these children have higher crime rate and more of them drop out of school.

It's a dismalish view, but I feel It's for the better in the long run.

Akali · 2021-03-13T13:43:24+00:00

I still don't understand the global histeria around flyod. Didn't he held a pregnant lady hostage? Why are so many people acting like he's a martyr or something?

Akali · 2021-03-13T13:39:12+00:00

I think they are too lazy to check. BBC have push news without sources in the past so they assume it's still the case.

That being said, this time around they give information on the data from the credit swiss global wealth data book.

https://www.credit-suisse.com/about-us/en/reports-research/global-wealth-report.html

And a quick look at the data show that it include the stock market cap which is problematic because if besos and buffet start mass selling their assets, they'll crash the market and the market will react in fear and mass sell as well which will reduce the final value of their wealth.

So while the data is accurate, the analysis isn't because it assume that those rich people live in a vacuum where they can turn their assets into cash without losing value.
