'The Jewish βQuestion.β The Negro βProblem.β The Trans βIssue.β Maybe people existing shouldn't be a question, issue, or problem that's up for debate. If you're framing peopleβs humanity and existence as some kind of both sides debate you're probably not a good person.' #racism #abpoli
They're not thinking about industrial use and never have--they want it because before it was an industrial good it was an icon of power. Diamonds, too.
That they're industrial commodities now is something they want the effects of but don't want itself, because it belies their beliefs about what makes a good currency.

Yes, when you were born is pretty important. I was born in the mid 50s. If they'd discovered at that time that I was autistic, I would've been put into an asylum and never seen the light of day again.
Thank the Gods they missed me! I was finally diagnosed aged 63, about 5 years ago. After I retired!
So I lived most of my life, and all of my *working* life, not knowing, unable to work out why I was so *very* unlikeable.
Elon Musk is what happens when you give someone with the temperament of a chihuahua and the empathy of a jellyfish access to unlimited wealth and power and then tell him that he deserves to rule the world. #XMarksTheMoron

Hesci, estonko! Amy Warne here. Indigenous food sovereignty and health equity are my passions, as well as increasing Native visibility at all levels of gov't. I just ran for office and am the current chair of the OK County Dem Party. I work with entities such as the Regional Food Bank, HungerFree OK, First Americans Museum, & the Metropolitan Library. I represent less than 1% of Indigenous Dietitians in the field. I play soccer for fun and grow food to help nourish my community. #introductions
@ScottSoCal this is precisely the point my comment wants to make! Where is this βintrinsicβ value in some shiny metal, less than 7% of which is actually used for industries.
I miss the days when saying "Nazis suck" wasn't edgy and controversial.
Which is why all the preppers buying gold and diamonds make me laugh. Do they seriously think the post-apocalyptic world they imagine is going to give a single damn about their shiny metal and sparkly rocks?
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
