@HarbingerOfSalem @jmaris Never mistake for incompetence that which can be explained by greed. @JonnyT @HarbingerOfSalem Believe me, I've worked in politics, and you severely underestimate the role of incompetence. @HarbingerOfSalem I can understand your scepticism, but having worked in Politics, and in particular European politics, I've seen time and time again how Politicians can become absolutely obsessed with some technology, from Blockchain to Metaverse to AI, and yes, Hyperloop, even though it is not commercially and sometimes even technically viable. Really, don't underestimate the role of incompetence. @jmaris @HarbingerOfSalem When it comes to politicians on the right, always assume malice, because it usually is. We will see which fossil fuel company board of directors she joins later. @snakespeare @HarbingerOfSalem In this case, I think you are wrong, I've already said this in replies to other comments, but this doesn't look like bribery or corruption to me, it looks more like an incompetent politician who is pushing for a technology they don't understand after they saw a presentation promising them amazing results. |
@jmaris
I am entirely sure the bribe was incompotently received and will be exposed as incompotently spent
I understand what you are saying, and I still put my chips down on Bribe.
