Government “inflation” measurements are such a scam
Claiming to measure the value of a particular currency, when really they’re measuring the price of things in some place
Seems ~100% of people are too retarded to see that though those 2 things can move together,
they are NOT actually the same thing
It’s pretending the only reason that prices could ever change is due to increase or decrease in value of the currency, which is obviously not true at all
E.g.
(A) What happens if some cheap resource runs out and everyone has to switch to more expensive alernatives?
— Suddenly you have to shut down the economy because of inflation? ABSURD
(B) What happens if a much cheaper alternative to some common resource is suddenly found?
— Suddenly you have to print endless money until everything is as unaffordable as it used to be again, while enabling the goverment to steal half of the fake gains via taxes? ABSURD
Pretending that literally

price of goods == value of the currency, instead of those just being 2 completely separate things that may sometimes be correlated — is one of the biggest scams I’ve never seen anyone directly calling out🄳🄾🄾🄼🄿🄾🅂🅃🄸🄽🄶

You can smell MLM scams a mile away because they always have two absurd fantastical scenarios:
1) Big Money from Low Effort, but ZERO real explanation of where the profit actually comes from (hint: its you)
2) attractive w*m*n making easy money without showing or giving up hole

Ex-Hungary's Foreign Minister, Szijjártó resigned from his position as a member of the Hungarian parliament — now will work for the Chinese auto giant "BYD"
*Will serve as BYD’s Executive Head of External Relations & New Business Development
Well, wish he occupies an even higher position!
Meanwhile, Hungary will gradually integrate into liberal Europe, so this is an excellent solution for him

Truck drivers are now taking down Flock cameras in an Ohio town by ramming directly into the poles, and more people are starting to do the same.
The destruction has reportedly triggered a chain reaction, with other drivers following suit and leaving law enforcement scrambling.
Even people without vehicles are joining in, using baseball bats to smash the cameras.
"The vandalism is part of a trend across the country."

"trad" afd moment.
The leaders of the German afd party sang the anthem of the east german gdr soviet ocupied puppet state instead of the German national anthem.
After a campaign event, it was suggested that they sing the national anthem of Germany, but they decided to sing the commie gdr one even though the current German anthem is technically older and predates both the states of federal republic and the commie gdr by more than a 100 years.
The current anthem's music was written in 1797 and the lyrics 1841. Although the modern FRG only uses the 3rd stanza.
But the so-called "trad" and "based" Rightwing afd decided to sing a commie anthem instead of singing the based 1st stanza of Deutschlandlied.

She spent four years in an Italian prison for a murder she didn't commit. The man whose DNA was actually found inside the victim's body served less time than she did for a crime he confessed to being present for.
Amanda Knox was a 20-year-old University of Washington student who moved to Perugia, Italy, in 2007 to study abroad, sharing a four-bedroom apartment with three other women, including Meredith Kercher, a 21-year-old exchange student from England. On November 1, 2007, Kercher was sexually assaulted and murdered in her bedroom, her throat slit, her body left partially clothed. The apartment had been staged to look like a burglary gone wrong.
Amanda had spent that night at her boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito's apartment. When she returned home the next morning and found blood in the bathroom and Kercher's door locked, she called the police herself.
What followed became one of the most sensationalized murder trials of the century, and one built on almost no physical evidence connecting Amanda to the actual crime scene. Police interrogated her for hours without a lawyer or a proper interpreter present, and eventually extracted a confession implicating her boss, Patrick Lumumba, a bar owner with a solid alibi who was released within two weeks. Amanda later said she signed that false statement after exhaustion, police pressure, and being struck during questioning. She immediately retracted it, but the damage to how the world would see her was already done.
Italian and international media ran with her University MySpace nickname, "Foxy Knoxy," and spun an entire narrative around her supposed promiscuity and a violent sex game gone wrong, despite conclusive physical evidence pointing elsewhere. Meanwhile, the actual DNA evidence told a very different story. A man named Rudy Guede, whose DNA was found on bloody fingerprints at the scene and inside Kercher's body itself, was identified through fingerprint records and caught fleeing to Germany. Guede claimed he'd been in the bathroom when an unidentified man entered and killed Kercher, then fled the country out of fear rather than call police.
Despite Guede's DNA being the only forensic evidence directly tying anyone to the assault, Italian prosecutors focused their case on Amanda and Raffaele. In December 2009, both were convicted of murder and sexual violence. Amanda was sentenced to 26 years. She sobbed as the verdict was read. Guede, tried separately, was convicted the year before and sentenced to 30 years, later reduced to just 16 on appeal. He was released in 2021, after serving 13 years, less time than the length of Amanda's original sentence for a murder forensic evidence never actually placed her at.
In 2011, an appellate court found the physical evidence against Amanda and Raffaele deeply unreliable, court-appointed experts testified that police had badly mishandled the crime scene, contaminating and mislabeling key evidence. Their convictions were overturned. Amanda walked free after almost four years behind bars and returned to the United States.
The case wasn't over. In 2013, Italy's Supreme Court ordered a shocking retrial. In 2014, an appeals court convicted Amanda again, in absentia, since she was already back in America and refused to return. Finally, in March 2015, Italy's highest court, the Court of Cassation, threw out the convictions permanently, citing what it called "stunning flaws" in the original investigation. Amanda and Raffaele were declared innocent for good.

If you're Asian and you're considering emigrating to a western country you better understand you're going to have to become elite to compete. Take whatever supplements you must, go to the gym and become jacked. If you're some broke nerd it's kinder on yourself to just stay in Asia.

‼ BREAKING: Dutch and Belgian police have dismantled an international crypto investment fraud network run like a company: roughly 20 call centers, 700+ "employees" and an estimated take of more than €100 million per month. Six suspects have been arrested across Poland, Cyprus, Belgium and Greece.
One of the lead suspect is named only as "Ehud T.", a 46-year-old Israeli-Polish national accused of building the network's technical backbone. The combination of first name, age and hacking history points strongly to infamous Israeli hacker Ehud Tenenbaum aka "The Analyzer" of the 1998 Solar Sunrise Pentagon intrusions.
