New crypto hub for Asia rising
by professor rat 08 Mar '22

08 Mar '22

Singapore is often called Asia’s crypto hub, and that term makes sense on the surface. The Monetary Authority of Singapore’s regulatory framework has been thought of as a comprehensive approach to crypto that understands the unique complexity of the asset class while Hong Kong takes a fragmented approach that often feels like there’s a square peg in a round hole happening despite everyone’s best efforts. But we’re forgetting about Malaysia. Also a former Crown colony, Malaysia retains the institutional use of English as well as a common law court system. There’s no erosion of this legacy like in Hong Kong, the beaches are better than Singapore and the cost of living is low. https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2022/03/07/first-mover-asia-malaysia-may-b…

Mr. Weber: By the way, now you have all my test results. I almost died, no kidding. Do you know about this. The FBI was with me, making sure I did not die. This is crazy, Mr. Weber. How did Gunnar get somehow in the place, you notified, if he was going to die? They said if I went to bed, I would have been brain dead. I had to sign papers, saying if I did not wake up tomorrow.... WTF. OMG. WHAT in the hell, am I suppoaed to say? With the CT Scan, x Rays ... You scanned my whole body. How much blood? Like a Lot! I have, by the best Doctors in New York, had to sign my life away to get out. And the question now is if I go to sleep, maybe brain dead? The Dr. Told me to get my afairs order. Crazy. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Wp751ncfVJg2R00ZkFVdmOxFVShpqoY_/view?usp=…

I am willing to fight to the last Troskyist in Ukraine
by professor rat 08 Mar '22

08 Mar '22

Anthony Boynton I think that what is needed right now is a movement in solidarity with Ukraine. The burning issue is defense of Ukraine's right to national self determination which is being brutally violated by the Russian state. The government of Ukraine has called for sanctions against Russia. We have no idea what the working class of Russia thinks about the sanctions, but we do know that the antiwar movement in Russia is being jailed so that it cannot speak. Since Russia has invaded Ukraine without provocation, and is using the most brutal strategy short of nuclear war, I think we should support the Ukrainian government's call for both sanctions and arms from the imperialists. Again, the issue here is Ukraine's right of self determination. What we should not support is direct imperialist military intervention. On the other hand, a Pro-Russian Antiwar movement, or even an antiwar movement that takes Russia's side by opposing war in general, is reactionary. Neither the United States nor NATO have entered this war. Up to this point it is an imperialist war by Russia against a non-imperialist country, Ukraine. Finally, the largest organizations on the left that still profess internationalism, in other words some of the surviving descendants of Troskyism, should pool their resources to organize an international brigade to fight on the side of Ukraine.

Ukraine says Russian military advance has slowed. Russian losses are reported as heavy. christogrozev ·11h In the call, you hear the Ukraine-based FSB officer ask his boss if he can talk via the secure Era system. The boss says Era is not working. Era is a super expensive cryptophone system that @mod_russia introduced in 2021 with great fanfare. It guaranteed work “in all conditions” https://www.palmerreport.com/analysis/ukraine-invasion-is-disastrous-for-ru…

Re: Women’s Rights are Human Rights Well of course you could switch from support for human and civil-rights to Wikileaks style fascism every week. Of course! But then you'd be like Batshit-Crazy.

[spam][crazy][wrong] inventing mean words
by Undiscussed Horrific Abuse, One Victim of Many 08 Mar '22

how can we invent an infinite quantity of boss-speak? boss has experience of horror being normal, and assumes everybody else does. boss also has experience of always covering this up, and assumes everybody else does. idea of analogies developing by assumption of harm, then using these analogies. but we want to pick analogies that have a certain poignancy to them.
