politics @lemmy.world•Melania Trump says she did not have relationship with Jeffrey EpsteinEnglish
58·1 day agoPretty weird to do this out of the blue. Feels like she’s trying to frontfoot something big that’s about to come out.
He was a trier though, sounds like he did his best:
Realising that he could not win a war against the Romans, Pyrrhus accepted a request from the Greek city-states of eastern and southern Sicily to help them against the Carthaginians in western Sicily. He went to Sicily and campaigned there for three years. His allies in southern Italy were aggrieved because he abandoned them. He took over all the Carthaginian domains in Sicily except for the stronghold of Lilybaeum. His siege of this city was unsuccessful. After this he wanted to build a large fleet to invade Carthage’s home territory in Africa. He needed to man and equip these ships and to do this he treated the Greek city-states despotically. These cities turned against him. He was forced to return to southern Italy. He fought the Romans at the Battle of Beneventum (275 BC), where he was defeated. He then left Italy and returned to Epirus.
That’s a pretty long multi-year rampage, taking on all the big players in the region. We can’t all be winners 😅

None of that is happening, lol.

The time to do that was before bombing hundreds of Iranian children. And civilian infrastructure. Way too late now.

We can adapt and the process of doing that in capitalism involves prices rising and rising until people can’t afford things and stop buying them, thus reducing demand.
That’s super tough on people who don’t have much money and they don’t consume much anyway so when they tap out it doesn’t reduce demand much. So prices need to rise enough to hurt the middle class in developed countries, meaning the lower classes everywhere else have a really shit time.
Meanwhile there are some oil uses that are completely unable to be reduced, such as emergency services, food distribution, etc so the govt will intervene in the market to ensure that happens. This means all non-essential sectors of the economy must reduce usage by significantly more than 20%.
Meanwhile every country’s govt is doing everything it can to try to lock in 100% of their usual supply and some will succeed, leaving other countries to make much bigger cuts than 20%.
There will be lots of people making 100% cuts while a few make none. Humanity isn’t great at sharing especially at a global level.
