  • There isn’t currently a scientific consensus, as wikipedia should be pointing out, with studies differing massively depending mostly on what model of soil uptake and preservation in atmosphere is used.

    We know that the majority of in air debris would not come from the explosion, which is designed to minimize fallout in all modern weapons and deployment models, but from the resulting fires. We also know from previous tests the resulting fires don’t actually last long as they tend to burn through areas quickly.

    In short it’s not a sure thing, and if any cooling effect does occur it wouldn’t start to touch the average heating we’ve introduced through climate change.

    Both candidates fall under the latter category. An AG that was a prosecutor with a history of perpetuating the war on drugs and arguing in court innocent men should stay imprisoned because prison labor is good for the economy, who was also vice president to one of the most right wing men ever elected?

    That’s literally the state half of the fascist alignment of corporate and state power.









  • I’m pretty sure Apple getting your tax money is something your politicians wanted, not Apple. They’re one of the wealthiest companies on the planet and have more cash on hand than any other company as a matter of policy.

    Moreover, Apple is a capitalist entity, not a state owned entity, they go where they can sell. That’s not really the US anymore. China has more middle class tech consumers than the north American continent has people.




  • Every good nation is politically hostile to the US, it’s history of genocide and unrestrained war makes it a social pariah that is only tolerated by countries so that they don’t get invaded.

    That being said Apple is headquartered in Ireland like all multinational tech companies. It was founded in the US, but legally it’s an Irish company.

    Also that no regard for IP thing mostly affects foreign IP, you can just apply for a Chinese patent and get legal protection there, China just doesn’t trust other countries patent and IP protection processes, which is especially fair for the US, the land of patent and copyright trolls.
