Still spunky at 11 years old!
Death to all who reject Avis!
Hellmans mayo huh? Guess I'll be switching brands!
I dont see anything else on the list thankfully.
"Statement From The Moderators Hello, r/antiwork! As you're probably aware, r/antiwork has been set to private until recently in solidarity with the sitewide protest against Reddit's attempt to kill third-party apps. At the start of the protest, we received assurance from Reddit administration that mods have a right to protest and to set their subs private. Today, we received a message from Reddit that our mod team will be replaced if we do not open up the subreddit immediately.
The important takeaway here is Reddit does not care about this community and Reddit does not care about you. They see you as nothing more than a statistic to monetize. They do not care about the quality of this community. They do not care about the desires of the community or the mod team. We set the subreddit private to protect the community from the changes Reddit intends to force through, and Reddit is forcing the subreddit open because a worse user experience for you is more profitable for them.
Going forward, the mod team is going to lose some very important tools that we've relied on to keep you safe from spammers and scammers. This means we're going to have to reassess our rules and procedures in order to serve you more effectively. The mod team will keep you updated on any developments. We thank you for your understanding.
Many thanks,
The r/antiwork mod team"

Basically, if they didnt open the subs, Reddit would replace them with pro-reddit mods and open it anyway. The lesser of two evils was to open it and prevent pro-reddit mods from destroying the community. Solidarity also comes with understanding. Reddit is driving a wedge into the community. They want the community to attack each other instead of the real enemy, Reddit. Dont turn on the Mods, help to try and find a solution to fight reddit tyranny instead of fighting amongst the people who are trying to defend you.

I wonder how bad these fires will play out for the wildlife and the ecosystem.
Not only are critical food sources burned, but this is spring, many animals have young that cant escape. From amphibians to birds to large mammals. The rivers as well will be choked and kill fish fingerlings and eggs. This is a tragedy of epic proportions for Canada's ecosystem.
"Peru’s mining industry is essential to the country’s economic development. It accounts for nearly 10% of GDP, while mineral export revenues reached $27.2 billion in 2021, representing 60% of the country’s total exports. Peru is the world’s second-largest producer of copper, silver, and zinc and Latin America’s largest producer of gold. Peru is among the primary producers of mineral commodities in the world. Abundant mineral resources such as copper, gold, silver, and** lithium** are found mainly in the mountains. "
There you have it. UK and China are the highest investors. UK and US would not want China to get a foot in the door too deeply if China decided to start financially strong arming Peru for more resources as they have done in other areas of the world. Its the same strategy that the US uses globally too. Its a show of strength to the Chinese, basically a pissing contest to establish dominance over a territory. And Peru probably got a fat paycheck by interested parties to allow the US to operate there. China lost the bid, but who know what may change?
For me it was always about information. I like learning new things and having access to current events, facts, documentaries, feedback, insights as well as learning resources. Im completely lost here. I subscribed to communities, but I have no idea what else Im missing from other instances.
"Lets promote going IPO by blocking everyone access!" The thought process......
Thank you for the post!
Its somewhat confusing, but I guess thats to be expected on a new site.
