Although he subsequently apologised for the phrasing, Bill Winters (CEO, Standard Chartered), has introduced the phrase 'lower-value human capital' in to public discourse....

The inhumanity of the capitalist class is not new, but increasingly brazen!

'As it racked up millions of views and spread on social media, the report was found to be false -- but the question of who was behind it was trickier.

Because if humans created this virus, then you can stop them or punish them. But if nature created it, you are totally powerless... and that powerlessness is intolerable.

But of course, we aren't powerless. We formulate vaccines and protective wear, and social rules to keep each other safe.

But that all takes effort and cooperation. It takes giving up a bit of your individuality for the good of the community as a whole.

Which, apparently, is also intolerable to them.

I was in broadcast news for nearly 50 years - about 20 of them at CBS News - and saw a lot of stupid things, but handing over the country’s highest-rated news show to some guy who never worked in TV news and apparently plans to spend his days “rethinking how we tell stories” has to be THE stupidest.

CBS News is finished.

They might as well burn “the house that Murrow built” to the ground.

"Who is actually running the government? That is no longer a rhetorical question. As America’s war with Iran lurches from escalation to ceasefire to renewed threats of military force, Americans are being asked to trust that someone, somewhere, knows what they are doing. But who?

Remembering that #eu sits on #billions of #Russia ( #Putin )’s #frozen #funds we still haven’t used to help #ukraine to defend itself.
Maybe a reply to this “accident” could be to show a bit of courage and unfreeze at least part of them?
