You mean rhetoric? (Sorry if I'm out of the loop and this is an intentional misspelling. I'm even more sorry if this is actually spelled correctly somehow!)

Isn't the president of Hungary literally the EU president at the moment. 🤔
I mean, there are differences between EU countries! If you're looking to get away from fascism then Hungary might not be your best bet, for example.
My understanding is that on average there are differences in psychology between conservative and progressive people. For example, conservative people tend to be okay with unfairness, since from their point of view society is a hierarchy and of course the people at the top are better off.
Anyway, given that conservative and progressive people have a different vision of an ideal society and also different ideas about how to get there, it is reasonable to expect them at act differently. We know that most politically motivated violence is from the right.
Forcing is absolutely good. We force companies to do all kinds of things, in terms of corporate governance (publicly traded companies must have their finances audited, for example), ownership (banks used to be prevented from buying stock so that they would not avoid calling in bad debt), and how they do business (collusion between big tech to keep salaries down for example).
I use Consent-o-matic.
Meh. I lose power every 3 or 4 years on average. A UPS just doesn't make sense for me. (When I lived in Virginia it was once a month on average, so for sure it made sense....)
I don't think so. Even with just 7 inches or so you're starting to have to be careful with angles to avoid hurting your partner.
I'm a great believer that the workers should own companies, but the same logic applies. If it is too big to fail, then no private ownership should be permitted, either capital or worker.
In the video they answered right away?
If a human did this, they would at least get a ticket with a fine, and have the violation recorded on their license which would be revoked if it kept happening. With the computer controlled car, the cop called customer support and was like, "hey you might want to look into it or something."
I guess we can't expect the people hired to protect capital to act against capital, but it's still a bit disturbing.
Banking is completely different from voting from a security point of view. None of the parties in a bank transaction are anonymous, and there are numerous ways to retry or roll back a transaction. Computerized voting is more like crypto currency. 😝
