A história do capitalismo: uma “nova tecnologia” cria uma necessidade inexistente às custas da destruição de uma utilidade existente. Isto leva à criação de uma novíssima tecnologia que produz um sucedâneo da utilidade destruída às custas de uma novíssima necessidade inexistente e assim por diante.

Another ‘narco submarine’ found in the Solomon Islands, after it sailed all the way across the Pacific(!). This is the 3rd publicly reported example there.

Note that it’s empty and the outboard motors have been removed

NEW: Since October 2023, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has released dozens of 3D animations illustrating alleged Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian sites
