  • How can he be right when it’s pretty much a wrong decision? Tariff isn’t new, country does that to protect or nurturing the local industry so it won’t get wrecked by bigger fish coming into the local market.

    But there is cost to that, because once the bigger brand established locally and people relying on them, and local brand has since been demolished, tariffs gonna hurt so many people without alternatives to consider. It take years for the good effect of tariff to establish. What frump did is put a sweeping one with the 10% minimum for all country EXCEPT russia, and some as high as 34%. This have serious consequences outside of stock market, the so called “blue collar” he’s trying to protect is the one gonna hurt the most, and it gonna take years if not decade(s) for such tariff to take effect.

    What china did cannot be replicated beyond their land. They can survive on their own for years if they close off their port today. The whole thing by china is planned, drump and the depublicant can’t even figure out the mathematical equation of tariff. What they did is turning friend into enemy and pretend it’s a win.






  • Left due to the crowd amassed for my country’s sub. I became friend with a few regulars there when the sub is small, but these day they’re significantly more and more people with a lack of common sense and logical thinking gathered there it’s hard to find new friend, to the point the friends i met just decided to lurk or quit. No more fun.

    Then API fiasco happened and since i hate the official app so much as it’s significantly slower with horrible UI, it’s a final push for me to make the jump.

    I wouldn’t say i like lemmy more, but it’s the one i tolerate now. If the main dev became unbearable then i jump again.

    So does journalist, because their job isn’t only writing article but to go out there to find stories to write, even on the frontline of war. It’s the slob tabloid and “based on source by another press” article getting replaced.

    Artist though, their income is gonna get cut because ai plagiarism mean they’re getting less and less commission.
