So Musk decided not to leverage this influence and instead acquiesced to a foreign government for funsies.
Sounds like him.

So in your mind the possibility of Musk being extradited could lead to those colossal outcomes?
The starlink thing died yesterday but, I can’t imagine a reaction this strong from the US financial sector or MAGA.
I disagree with the intensity of this response, if it were to happen.
I’m failing to see the connection with Brazil here.
What would the backlash be from the US financial sector?
Why would MAGA be mad about the US Government extraditing an African American?
Remember that time Musk expressed that he was in favor of free speech? Then he censored content on his platform for the Turkish government?
Why would the US strain their relationship with Brazil over Musk? Politically, it makes sense to extradite him.
Also imma need a citation on how extradition works, I searched the wiki and couldn’t find anything.
Something something, there are no republican states there are only voter suppressed states.
Oof, The ultimate “this you?”.
Absolutely, it was a delight speaking with you. Enjoy the rest of your day friend.
Sounds good to me. I like the idea of making corporations do what we want. I have very little concern for the freedoms of businesses.
I imagine it would work much the same way taxing any service industry would.
I wont pretend to understand how the sp500 calculates its value. I personally think the stock market is all smoke, mirrors & vibes. Tech still needs patents and copyrights, a likely vector of attack for a willing government I imagine.
Unfortunately, I have a vague memory of the video maybe its this one?
I saw a video about this. I think the next step would be heavier taxes on the corporations that do this kind of stuff.
Then a nationalization of the physical means of that corporation that the entity leaves behind.
“If they leave we just make it work without them, we are American, we can do anything.” -some dude on the internet
Idk man, I think it’s risky engaging in this kind of essentialism. Votes are votes and, when the alternative is Trump, I’ll take progress over perfection.
“It’s facilitated in part by a Job Development Investment Grant from the North Carolina Department of Commerce, which gives cash grants directly to a company when it creates jobs and invests in the state.”
I wonder if this makes it kind of like, although not equivalent to, a project labor agreement. I know North Carolina is a right to work state.
It would be nice for there to be union presence on a job this large. However small the chances of that may be.
JD will just find a couch to mount.

Sounds to me like:
Kissinger business interests in America align with China = Yay (USA corporatism)
India continuing politics as usual with Russia = Boo (USA regular people)
I don’t know much about Kissinger but, from the AP article you sent gives me the idea China saw him as the “Giant Panda”. I hardly see this relationship as a “yay” from Americans.
I thought Modi was significantly weakened with the last vote in India. Is this not him aligning with other authoritarian leaders? Thats the only politics I see.
I don’t understand this comment. What example are you using for America and China? What “Realpolitik” is happening between Modi and Putin hugging?
One state solution. No country gets to dress up in a liberal democracy wig while sporting ethno state raybands. Apartheid states don’t get to exist in a functioning democracy.
I just like the idea of a corrupt judge, in the US, getting primaried by a working class person. Obviously, with the correct counsil, if elected.
I want to believe those are the kinds of people this legislation is designed to support, in a perfect system.
If not, its just more fluff to jam up and backlog the beurocracy.
How it will play out is another story. Maybe Mexico will try it out.
