Doesn’t this literally translate to “Don’t suck, cuck. What a fart. You see it?” ?

A true classic.

 

A friend from Argentina once told me Argentina keeps its best wines for themselves and exports the mediocre stuff, even at the sake of profits.

Similarly, a friend from Turkey once said he couldn’t find good Turkish olives outside of Turkey because “Turks are terrible businessmen and keep the best olives to themselves.”

These are anecdotal and might be untrue but I liked the idea.

At an individual level, it’s irrational to cooperate in a prisoner’s dilemma yet experiments show people cooperate.

Contributing to open source projects may fall into this category.

Have you observed any obvious behavior that goes counter to profit maximization? Any cool examples?

 
 

Don’t message me Elon

 
 
 

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand MAGA. Trump’s actions are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of white supremacy most of the policies will go over a typical American’s head. There's also Trump’s anti-democratic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from PragerU and Project 2025, for instance. The MAGAts understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of Trump’s very very large a brain, to realize that he’s not just a stable genius- he’s the second coming of CHRIST. As a consequence people who dislike MAGA truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the genius in Trump’s phrases "everything’s computer" and “look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you're a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it's true! — but when you're a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that's why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we're a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it's not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it's four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven't figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it's gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible.” which themselves are a cryptic reference to his past quote “I have the best words.” I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Trump's genius unfolds itself on the world stage. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Trump tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.
