One acre one vote again.
The bourgeoisie has subjected the country to the rule of the towns. It has created enormous cities, has greatly increased the urban population as compared with the rural, and has thus rescued a considerable part of the population from the idiocy of rural life.
[....]
The bourgeoisie keeps more and more doing away with the scattered state of the population, of the means of production, and of property. It has agglomerated population, centralised the means of production, and has concentrated property in a few hands. The necessary consequence of this was political centralisation. Independent, or but loosely connected provinces, with separate interests, laws, governments, and systems of taxation, became lumped together into one nation, with one government, one code of laws, one national class-interest, one frontier, and one customs-tariff.
Grifters gonna grift.According to the article, Trump was trying to get the Tübingen-based CureVac company — which also has sites in Frankfurt and Boston — to move its research wing to the United States and develop the vaccine "for the U.S. only."
It's funny you mention the Spanish Flu, because the Spanish Flu didn't actually come from Spain - in fact, it wasn't even particularly bad there.100 years ago we probably would have officially called it the china flu or something like that, because we've always had a tendency to name epidemics and pandemics for where they seem to originate (see Spanish Flu, and all 6 types of ebola, for example).
China is powerful enough these days people have to give a shit about upsetting them.Just now, after I finished the playlist, I went to check twitter, and at the top of my feed, I found out that apparently calling corona or covad the Kung Flu or the Chinese flu is bad now?
How enlightened you are.RACISM AM BAD? SINS WHIN?
Y U KISS COMMIE ASS?
But surely the TradeWar(tm) showed them who the RealBoss(tm) was...China is powerful enough these days people have to give a shit about upsetting them.
If you have a better one, I'm sure the World Health Organisation would be delighted to receive your suggestionsI wouldn't mind a different naming scheme,
They’ve done far more harm than good, speaking of them in general and not just in this forum.So fake Bernie supporters that are really Trump fans I shall now refer to as fauxgressive.
Great, more new information, LOLIf you have a better one, I'm sure the World Health Organisation would be delighted to receive your suggestions
Naming the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and the virus that causes it
An explanation of the official names for the corona virus disease (COVID-2019) and the virus that causes it.www.who.int
The Spanish Flu originated in the United States. It was called The Spanish Flu, because Spain (neutral in WWI) was the only country talking about the flu at the time. The US and other countries were suppressing the news because they were afraid morale would plummet if people knew other people were getting sick and dying.100 years ago we probably would have officially called it the china flu or something like that, because we've always had a tendency to name epidemics and pandemics for where they seem to originate (see Spanish Flu, and all 6 types of ebola, for example).
