I am in my early 40's and I live alone in Manhattan. Most of my friends are late-20's to mid-40's. Despite having very little wealth and absolutely no family money I am still something of a spendthrift, though I enjoy it.
I know very little other than it appears the two most popular sources are Zillion x Work, and XinZhiZao, both of which appear to be based out of China.
There aren't many instances in history where people are actually systematically exterminated on the grounds of their race, so Haiti is of historical significance.
It is indeed quite unusual for a chattel slave uprising to actually succeed. It's more the norm for them to be crushed and for their oppressors to continue to brutalize them with no consequences for decades and centuries to come.
Nobody bats an eye at the reprisals that follow when the slavers win.
In the case of Haiti, the country was isolated internationally for decades as a result of the revolt. The US refused to recognize Haiti for nearly 60 years, ironically despite the fact that the US was itself founded on a revolt on grounds that were less serious. This naturally stunted Haiti's development economically.
If you read the Wikipedia page rather than being inflammatory they extended full citizenship to Polish and German people there who turned against the remands of the slave state, so your assertion that this massacre was based on skin color rather than affiliation is false.
Your race baiting and lying is what should be removed.
“ The massacre excluded surviving Polish Legionnaires, who had defected from the French legion to become allied with the enslaved Africans, as well as the Germans who did not take part of the slave trade. They were instead granted full citizenship under the constitution and classified them as Noir, the new ruling ethnicity.”
If you're going to heap moral outrage on events 220 years ago, apply it to the whole situation, not just the part that makes you uncomfortable. Chattel slavery is utterly unconscionable and irredeemable, as is every society that participates in it.
(It's also weird how you're excluding the part where the Polish and the Germans were enfranchised by the Haitian government.)
Some people might say that "exterminated on the basis of race" isn't inaccurate if French is the race, not "everyone without lots of melanin." If someone killed all African blacks but spared some dark-skinned Indians, that would also still be a genocide.
While we're being complete, let's remember the part that the genocide extended to poor whites (not slaveholders) as well as women and children. The fact that they gave a pass to those who allied with them shows that the perpetrators were strategic, but does not detract from their bloodthirstiness.
As someone who believes in Karma, I am not surprised that a country founded on revenge at the race level has never managed to become a good place in any sense of the word.
I think Tenstorrent is based in Canada. At least Jim and his team are all from Canada, and their headquarters seems to be there. Probably more complicated than that but it isn't so clear if this would apply.
The doctors were denying the existence of an illness though.
Don't ignore the doctors when they diagnose you with an illness.
If they insist you don't, there is a risk in not ignoring them. Maybe you have something and their diagnosis missed it.
(I do realize that from the grandparent comment, we cannot conclude that the doctors were proven wrong. The symptoms went away on their own, and were never diagnosed as being something physiological, which would contradict the "in your head" claim.)
I had a doctor tell me my knee pain was because I had worn away the cartilage and it was just going to hurt for the rest of my life.
I had a personal trainer tell me it was because the muscles on one side of my leg were much larger than the other (leg length difference) and that was pulling my kneecap out of place.
The personal trainer was correct, a few months of focused single leg exercises and the knee pain that had been with me for years went away.
Likewise, it's common for physicians to tell patients that their lower back will hurt for the rest of their life even though many cases can be cured through physical therapy.
If that ever becomes an actual problem, our entire society will be at a filter point.
This is the problem with these kind of incremental mitigations philosophically -- as soon as the actual problem were to manifest it would instantly become a civilization-level threat that would only be resolved with drastic restructuring of society.
Same logic for an AI that replaces a programmer. As soon as AI is that advanced the problem requires vast changes.
