It depends

…Right… Exactly my point… The “cave people” were not experiencing poverty…

Oh gee…

lacking a usual or socially acceptable amount

So… in other words… an inequal amount to others? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

It seems like inequality might be a key part of the definition of poverty that you’ve provided… 🤦

Keywords: “usual or socially acceptable”. To say that people in the distant past were living in poverty because they didn’t have access to the same technologies and wealth we have today is ridiculous and a fundamental misunderstanding of poverty.

So… is it impoverished people just aren’t doing the hard work to keep from starving that the great cave people did, then? Or…? 🙃

Literally irrelevant to the topic of poverty and the system that creates it…

Unless you believe that medical care and general progress/advancement somehow necessitates poverty or something strange and incorrect like that

Of course poverty is natural.

Nope, you’re wrong.

That’s why humans have always banded together to create wealth. Frist thing a tribal society does is try to store up food and create tools to get more food. Then they try to get clothes and shelter.

What you’ve described is literally just living and surviving. So… what, people who are experiencing poverty are just not working to acquire food, clothes, and shelter like they should be? Or is there something, unnatural, that prevents them from actually doing this?

Poverty is unnatural and is created by an unnatural system that is purely man-made. Your example actually demonstrates it perfectly, back before the invented system, people were free to survive the way they needed and were without poverty.

Musk’s own projection — creating a false link between terrorism and trans identity — followed Wilson’s unvarnished comments in a cover story for Teen Vogue.

The article author validates Musk’s incorrect view that vandalism and destruction of property somehow equates to terrorism.

“The Nazi salute s**t was insane,” Wilson continued, referring to Musk’s straight-arm salute at Donald Trump’s post-inaugural celebration. “That s**t was definitely a Nazi salute.”

The author chickens out in calling a Nazi salute what it is and instead writes “straight-arm salute”

It wasn’t displeasing to me because I didn’t watch it

I don’t watch videos that should be a blog post or article

I always put /home on a different drive than /

I normally love southern food but chicken and waffles is one that I don’t love as much. I normally just eat the chicken and then eat the waffles separately

That’s actually not how claims work, see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell’s_teapot

Actually, “God does not exist” is not a claim. “God exists” is a claim, though. See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell’s_teapot and my other comment for clarity on this

It really doesn’t matter how cheap they get, I’m never going to own a networked ipad on wheels, covered in cameras, that can be disabled remotely on Elon Musk’s whim…
