Yes, I was completely wrong. I worked in Zug at the not-America PM treasury in the 90s. There was loads of Nestle chocolate available, and other PM products, for everyone so I have a false memory.

I know he started as a communist/socialist but began to change his mind over time.

His books changed their political leanings over time; for my interpretation at least.

That’s mad. I was sure it had been owned but I’m completely wrong. The PM office in Zug where I used to spend time was filled with Nestle so I thought …

Thank-you for that. It’s never been owned by PM.

George Orwell’s real name was Eric Blair.

Blair was a communist, from what I remember, but started to see what socialism was really like and gradually reverted his attitude.

Animal Farm is along the same line but an easy read for kids.

1984 was intended as fictional. Eric Blair wrote it in 1948.

I’m not sure that it is anymore.

His books are all pretty good. “Down and out in Paris and London” (or is it London and Paris? It’s been a minute) is one of my favourites.

Isn’t Nestle owned by Phillip Morris, an 'Mercan company?

An undervalued post.

Nah. Those are not my words. It’s a quotation. You may not have experienced those in your long life.

Did you actually read the list of contradictory statements you’ve written.

Bless.

Fair point well made.

But let’s pretend for a moment that OP has hobbies that are interested in. You may be aware that there are more than a few unusual hobbies manifested as communities here and subs on Reddit.

OP won’t get recommendations based on those hobbies, but specific recommendations that everyone likes.

Perhaps OP can help. OP, do you think adding your likes and interests would have helped in obtaining more suitable recommendations?

The implicit part of OPs question is “… that I might want to read.”.

The correct answer to OPs question is to provide a full listing of something like feedly’s RSS feeds. Millions and millions of them.

This is why one frames a question (gives constraints) so that the answer is immediately useful to the questionnaire.

No, they carried on innovating but followed the money because only major sources of capital outside EU would back their ideas.

Shame on us Europeans.

Same question in 20th century: recommend a book.

If you can’t see the problem with this question, … Sheesh! …nvm.

If I am left wing and the body-left moves left then I am right wing. Extreme Left wing circles around to become extreme right and then moderate.

They call it history. You spell it P-R-O-P-A-G-A-N-D-A, and the most well read of you think that it’s a small country in east central Africa.

This isn’t news. Since the second amendment’s Inception, it has never been used for its intended purpose.

There was an invasion of 'Mercan Government buildings in recent years and no-one took guns. Had they believed in the second amendment, that wouldn’t have been true.

I make no judgement as to whether that invasion was right or wrong.

Biden served out his term as expected as a person deep in dementia; a lesson about 'Merca to the whole world. That second amendment is just for school kids to shoot each other in school corridors, because someone cut you up in traffic or so one drug dealer can steal drugs from another drug dealer.

I write as a Brit being fucked over by an authoritarian Marxist government. Somehow we got infected by Woke from 'Merca (anyone else getting the irony there?) and all sides of our legislative bodies caught it.

But the icing on the cake is finding out that, as the world watched Russia invade Ukraine to help recreate the USSR, Trump is a Russian asset but in the different way that Biden was.

Where is your second amendment now, Mercans? Answer: same place it always was.

It’s the right side of the java nightmare that it was. Much much better but until that java runtime disappears …

It’s my daily driver and is the central application with which I work.

My bad. Misunderstood figure.

I hear you. 🤔

Thank-you very much. I knew about the shooting but didn’t recognise the name.

Again, thank-you very much for your service!

I’m having difficulty deciding whether that was what the US second amendment was intended for, rather than letting their kids shoot each other in school.
