Quick description: is one who wants uni-polarity throughout the world. Doesn't the name essentially give it away?
> The Arctic ocean is going to belong to the US and the sooner our local elite understands, the better they can negotiate and get their cut.

I don't know about that, the Russians are way ahead of everybody in developing their Arctic and ability to protect their interests there. As a Canadian, I, personally, would like us to join the Belt & Road. Going forward, my belief is that our interests are more aligned with Russia and China and the growing Global South. Let us get rid of our colonial shackles once and for all, eh?!

Aren't the Globalists the Authoritarians these days?
I don't agree, if that was true then CNN+ wouldn't have gone forward when the buyout was happening, because the new owners weren't happy that it did!
And all your browsing data is transferred to sites like Outbrain etc., quite the list, actually. I get it, a lot of work, and you don't work for free. I'd rather pay a nominal amount rather than the tracking.

Well maybe read the article before commenting - Anybody that knows Greenwald's work, will know that he's a progressive. I too am a progressive, but some younger, intelligentsia progressives are employing 'cancel' culture in a way that is NOT progressive, but very often fascist. The old adage, two wrongs don't make a right, applies here.
They're like Facebook, almost impossible to delete the account.
Re:The Hard Lessons of Modeling the Coronavirus Pandemic on Saturday February 06, 2021 @03:02PM (#26049417)
I wonder which is harder to model — The weather or human behaviour.
Unfortunately, yes. Most noticeably to strangers rather than people I follow and communicate with regularly, truth be told.
That looks nice, and could I say 'about time'!
Well there is this: https://uk.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-vaccine... however I don't know specifically about Africa. I assume they're covered in the umbrella group COVAX which is overseen by the WHO.
>I pay for YouTube music, which also removes ads anywhere you are using YouTube with your logged in account

That hasn't been my experience (using GMusic) — Only on Music Videos do I not get advertisements. But I get them on everything else on Youtube.
