This is inherently political, but I think the overall intention of the article is to highlight one of the larger media pushes against Trump, and one of Biden's campaign promises, and the hypocrisy therein of his escalation of this.

How is this political spam relevant to economy?

I enjoyed watching that when it was first created! Any word of a 1080p for that one? I'd even take a release of the timestamps so that I could make the edit to my 1080p versions.

Massive non sequitur there. Taliban does not have military bases on US soil to fortify with 100 personnel.

I'm not disagreeing that the US is assisting in genocide. Has been for a while, and the top two projected candidates for US presidency will further perpetuate this.

But this 100 troop movement is insignificant and is being played up for drama and clicks.

First off, as with every time domestic terrorism is discussed, US armed forces cannot carry out hostilities on domestic soil.

Second off, it's 100 personnel. Barely a blip on the total number of deployable personnel, and it's an air defense group without offensive capabilities.

Clickbait is clickbait.

Reading through this discussion and considering my own daily life, I find that indeed my utilization of smartphones is limited to primarily other existing advances in technology not directly associated with phones. Primarily Internet. In fact, I might be a bit abnormal because my 8 hours at work, my phone is not directly on my person and rarely used. I do, however, need to utilize it for 2FA authentication ~1-2 times per day. Which, digital personal keys were a thing before phones.

So yeah, I'd say that smartphones aren't a big advancement, but the combination of multiple other technological advancements.

Not wanting to give away too much personal information on the Internet, thanks to my residency wanting "the brand" and social media clout, we were required to have an online presence and bio. But I went to residency in the same location I'm currently practicing, Eastern Midwest.

I originally applied to regions and Hennepin, would have loved to go there. Due to other external factors, it was better to come here.

First time noticing this community, subscribed!

I'm a 2 year post residency EM doc in the Eastern Midwest region. I actually grew up on the west side of Minneapolis! I miss that city, but doubt I'll be moving back there any time soon.

Everyone, get in here and rally against this person!
