Looks like an attempt to make some Monsanto propaganda. The basis of round up ready crops is that they have been genetically modified to resist pesticide. I think this infographic is just confused.
The technology isn’t even the primary problem as Monsanto just has really shitty business practices.
So it is more about corporate greed than mutant sentient corn trying to kill you. This is bad propaganda because it relies on made up fantasy rather than the real reason Monsanto sucks.

- Comment on Legal analysis of killing of Renee Nicole Good 1 week ago:
Good analysis. I think the government has purposely tainted the investigation already which is incredibly disappointing. Their language and demeanor are disgusting and they are not afraid to lie. Truly a garbage administration.

A large fry is almost $5 now where I live. It is probably 10¢ of potatoes 15¢ of oil and 30¢ of labor. The mark up is incredible.

- Comment on How does internet advertising work? Where is all the money coming from? More... 4 weeks ago:
To answer your second question. Company are expected to spend $1 trillion on advertising in 2025.
For the first question, it is pretty complex. You can break it down into some topics though and it is more manageable.
Types
Ecosystem
SEO

Sounds like a fail to me. We will hold them to the same standards we would be held to. Can’t give a clean test then you are fired. We are also definitely going to watch you pee just like they do to all the poors as well. Turnabout is fair play.
Watch how fast drug tests would be made illegal.

Depends on your definition of funneling money to the top. You need a decentralized economic system designed not to behave like late stage capitalism.
One example of this is Parecon
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Participatory_economics
Honestly though, most of our problems are not driven by our economic system so much as our culture. You have to face that just about everyone worships greed whether they like to admit it or not.
In the US it is extremely pronounced and we even have idolized phrases about it like “fuck you money”. Where you have enough money that you can do whatever you want and you no longer have to follow the rules.
There is obvious a problem with our culture, but it is not just the US. Fascism is pretty much everywhere and even the most progressive countries still have huge wealth gaps that are always slowly widening.
Democracies cannot exist with large wealth gaps unless the wealth is aggressively kept out of politics. This is extremely hard and that is why the majority of all policies in all governments all over the world are driven by corporations.

The US was founded by the rich for the rich. Anything else is just convenient propaganda to convince the masses otherwise.

What they did is literally listed as an example of a unlawful order. So either they are incompetent or they are monsters. Either way you slice it they are murderers. Sad state of affairs.

First, that is not your child. It is a fucking elephant.
Second, I don’t care if the elephant says it has a high tolerance. You don’t shoot up anything with this much smack.
Third, labeling this poor junkie elephant as an aspie is just cruel and unusual.

Of all the machines an Emachine. Those were the cheapest and worst built computers ever. They were often obsolete the moment they were sold.
I guess that makes the irony even more delicious.
- Comment on I was diagnosed with early onset dementia and alzhimers. Is there safe guards I can put it up so I don't screw or kill anyone? Like who do I contact about being denied to own a gun? 1 month ago:
So sorry to hear. I have worked with many cases similar to yours. First things first, as most have said you need to find someone you trust to be you power of attorney. Depending on where you live in the world this can look different so I would consult with a expert to make sure you are doing it correctly.
This disease is scary because you slowly lose yourself. Depending on how it progresses you may eventually forget everyone you know. You may maintain long term memories but likely your short term memory will be completely shot.
This means you will often be on a short loop of 5-15 minutes as it progresses. Quality of life is highly dependent on very to patient, kind, and understanding caregivers. It extremely exhaustive taking care of a person on this short loop.
Hearing the same story thousands of times. Constantly correcting behavior and a lot of supervision is needed. Often your emotional state is completely dependent on those around you. If everyone else is happy, you will be.
The good news is you may have a long time before this happens. Enjoy life and prepare for the worst. They could find some new treatment soon so you are not without hope. Definitely time for a bucket list.

I remember that year, it was the same year Biden cancelled Christmas. After black lives matter burned all the cities to the ground there was not much left for the holidays. A lot of people forget what really happened!

Oh, I like that because it puts a ever increasing burden to use it or lose it. Once it is no longer profitable it goes back to public domain.
I find patents of dubious value to say the least. It is definitely the worst part of IP.
