So… hardly anyone? Maybe one apartment building?

Genuinely who the fuck is spending that much on a car? My wife and I make over $200k combined and we feel that buying a new Honda civic seems overly frivolous at like $23k. She has a 2006 Toyota because it still works fine.

And I’m truly not saying this to come off poorly, I just can’t believe that the average new car is $48k, that’s just insane. If I feel like it would set us relatively-lucky high-earners back to buy a new civic, who are these average people?

It’s worth re-mentioning this whenever it pops up.

The GDPR does not mandate the cookie pop-up. The GDPR just says that companies cannot gather personal information about you without your consent,

If companies weren’t trying to build a profile about you all the time, they don’t need a banner in the first place. The GDPR is amazing because it makes it immediately obvious which rare companies actually respect you and your right to privacy, due to not needing cookie banners in the first place

I’m so confused

suggesting the same old videos that are just barely entertaining enough to keep me watching

Are you complaining that YouTube is bad while still continuing to watch bad videos? Because if they’re good enough to keep you watching, then they must be pretty good.

Otherwise you could just stop watching algorithmic-suggested YouTube videos?

What does this have anything to do with economic systems? The problem is with a political system that allows such large scale corruption. When you have corruption and bribery in politics, this is the outcome, regardless of capitalism vs other.

If you got rid of capitalism but kept corrupt lifelong politicians, do you really think anything would be better? Capitalism is not the problem.

This is already the case in the Netherlands and Germany, actually! They each have a mastodon instance
