When people “with money” are also against capitalism…

That’s rarely an argument for capitalism

Yeah, I got into his standup at some point during Covid, dudes smart as fuck and will just talk about random shit for half an hour.

It’s easy to take up hours of content compared to writing an actual standup set.

He was.

A better point is refusing to listen to voters and keep repeating that the economy is great showed how wildly out of touch the modern DNC is.

I wonder if Twitter shareholders can sue him for damaging Twitter to get trump elected so he’d pass legislation beneficial to Tesla and SpaceX.

The only big name Biden’s DOJ got in four years was Hunter Biden…

Like, I remember a defense of Biden’s age was “it’s about the people he appoints”, and I just can’t see the argument that Biden was able to pick the right people.

He picked moderates whose main concern is appearing impartial.

A plastic bag would make for a terrible molotov considering

Gasoline melts plastic and would eat thru the bag…

What’s your point?

We all lost.

We can be self righteous and quadruple down and run another unpopular moderate, and see if yelling at them to vote anyways works…

But it’s got a pretty bad track record.

If we run a young charismatic candidate with a progressive platform, we know that performs very well.

So at a certain point. Aren’t both sides acting like children?

Isn’t the smart move for the “moderates” to compromise and we get progressive a little faster than they want? They’re the ones controlling the party and exerting influence so their candidate wins in primaries over the one voters want.

Why is the compromise always to the right?

Why not do what works and gets the American people help faster?

From Idiocracy:

Joe: Jesus. I don’t understand. Why me? Every time Metsler says, “Lead, follow, or get out of the way,” I get out of the way.

Bauers: When he says that, you’re not supposed to choose “get out of the way.” It’s supposed to embarrass you into leading or at least following.

Joe: That doesn’t embarrass me.

Resigning is just giving up without a fight.

If it take a week for trump to fire Wray, that’s a week less trump’s lackey has.

This isn’t a protest resignation that should be celebrated, it’s a coward who doesn’t think opposing fascism in anyway possible is worth it.

We can’t keep putting people without the will to fight in power.

Everything with “middle men” is like that.

Numbers get inflated then discounted.

It’s why it’s present at every step of capitalism, at every step someone takes a cut, so the price is inflated, then “discounted” to what consumers are willing to pay which is still an insane profit margin.

We voted those out

No we didn’t.

We threw the last scraps out the window 30 years ago when the Dem party decided to close ranks and protect Bill despite lying under oath.

Republicans lost theirs decades before that.

Stop acting like shit is new and just the fault of trump. What we have now is the natural result of things done decades ago.

It’s just in 87 Reagan said the media could lie, and in 96 Clinton said anyone can buy the media, even other corporations.

And even if my comment doesn’t explain everything, that’s because we’re talking about the ramifications of decades of deregulations from the only two political options.

Some things were done in plain view, others on the sly.

But it’s been a steady march to deregulation regardless of the letter by any President’s name since Jimmy Fuckin Carter. And the main point of regulations is to stop corruption, so don’t play shocked massive deregulation has lead to widespread corruption, including judicially.

Who gives a fuck. Norms are no longer a thing

And people are pissed about that…

A large number of people who didn’t vote, chose not to because they view both parties as corrupt who prioritize the wealthy over regular citizens.

We can yell at them till we’re blue in the face to choose the lesser of two evils because it’s less evil, but that clearly isn’t working.

So why not we meet the standards of Dem voters to earn their vote?

Why the fuck is it when that option is presented, everyone ignores it?

Obviously bullshit…

They made the highest bid, no one else bid higher.

The judge said they should have tried to get Alex Jones to make an even higher offer…

And since they didn’t, it somehow means Alex Jones owns it still and is already broadcasting?

The US legal system is a fucking joke.

That headline really got my hopes up…

There’s 42 current vacancies and I thought he was actually going to fill them before trump gets too.

This seems to be that over 4 years he appointed 40 who were Black women…

Why would you wonder?

They’ve been complaining for like a decade at least. I think the big one they started was a Wolfenstein from 2014? But I’m sure it was happening on a smaller scale much earlier.

Hell, even during WW2 lots of capitalism and Republicans openly argued for staying out of the war or even joining the actual Nazis.

Spray tan and/or makeup

Without it he looks like a ghost, for rallys and TV appareances he gets a touchup right before, but candids you can see what it looks like without in the edges.

It’s not that it looks good, it’s that without it he’d look a hell of a lot worse.

You might be too big for American Giant (shirts aren’t quite long enough) but American Tall does “double tall” sizes. Both sell other big/tall size stuff, but just finding plain tshirts that are long enough was the big hassle.

For outerwear a lot of “work brands” like Carhartt make big and tall sizes and their stuff holds up well.

But yeah, being tall and liking a baggier fit sucks. Unless you’re shopping speciality stores it’s almost impossible to find stuff long enough .

Yeah. I was just making up numbers for illustrative purposes.

As much as people shit on the VA, they’ve been my healthcare provider for over a decade and I just legitimately don’t know what numbers look like anymore.

It’s not perfect, but it’s a hell of a lot better than the majority have to deal with

Yeah, but they’re Biden’s…

And he’s also defending Israel seizing Syrian land.

That’s not even getting into who know what trump will do in a month

Yep, and it’s not like it’s just cheaper, benefits packages are tied into compensation.

Say you pay $400, insurance says the real price is $800, and your employer only pays another $200 as a “discount” but the real cost is actually $600. But turn down coverage, you don’t get that $200 in extra pay.

Without an employer, you have to pay the whole $800.

With a co-op you’d pay the actual real cost of $600.

It needs a critical mass of people.

And OP doesn’t understand a non profit still has a CEO that can be paid millions. The organization can’t make a profit, but lots of corrupt people make a lot of money running non profits.

These indecipherable guys!
