American leftists need to adopt their communication strategy. It doesn’t work to have educated people lecture the anti intellectuals. They don’t want to hear it and they’ll have a knee jerk reaction against it. Study, learn and use their own preferred methods instead. Stickers, simple slogans, rants, fucking flags on oversized wankmobiles if you’ve got one. Whenever there is a direct consequence of the Trump administration, shout it immediately from the rooftops until people get it. Only talking about it years later at the next election will do nothing because it is already pushed away by the propaganda feed. Use their method of communication but keep it factual and don’t stoop down to their hatred and lies. It’s not about taunting, it’s about informing the uninformed and leading them out of the bubble.
Price hikes? Thanks MAGA. Deportations of integrated citizens? Thanks MAGA. No more social security? Thanks MAGA. Leopards chewing on your face? WELL FUCKING THANKS FOR VOTING FOR THE LEOPARDS EATING PEOPLE’S FACES PARTY!
This may be the only time it works, when people actually get punched in the face. Explaining how they will get punched in the face in the future never seems to work. That’s the “educated people lecture the anti intellectual”.
Unfortunately the lesson will only last 1 election cycle.
You say that like we’re ever going to have elections again. Before 1 year is up of 47’s reign, they’ll assassinate him so Vance, someone who’s kore easily controlled, will be president. It’s why he was chosen. It’s all why they orchestrated the previous 2 attempts. You’ll notice that both attempted assassins were both R voters.
Then, before the next election, they’ll create some “emergency” that Vance will use as an excuse to declare martial law and cancel elections. Our country just chose actual fascism this week, and that’s what it looks like.
thats okay because they’re sacrificing their bonuses to make the “economy” better. if all just sacrifice a little more, then the economy will get better. the more we sacrifice, the better the economy becomes. sacrifice.
Yeah, just give 10% to this guy named God
Probably even get a cost savings for such a large stock order. Somehow the cost for whatever they produce will still go up though. Record profits next year. Of course that will trickle down to the employees right? Right?
Manufacturing already buys in bulk and they would not be likely to get a further discount from a company that knows they are buying up to avoid tariffs. Plus they will need to store the materials, which will most likely incur warehouse fees.
They are also going to be ordering for things that they already have contracts for, so they are trying to avoid losing a bunch of money on materials increases.
Explaining tariffs is actually a decent sign that they are operating in good faith, at least as much as can be expected from a for profit business, and they aren’t just swindling their employees. I mean if they post record profits after denying bonuses at a small manufacturing business they are likely to lose the vast majority of their workforce.
Except everyone’s trying to order.
This story has no proper nouns other than PA. It needs more details or else it’s a lie that we want to believe.
BS. (and I hate Trump).
The fact that so many are believing this anecdote to be real is a good reason why the Dems lost.
Why bother with reality and learning what actual people are experiencing in their actual lives when you can just share made up stories and extreme fringe cases that confirm your world view?
Media literacy is fucking dead.
Yeah but this anecdote is featured in a tiktok where the person’s face is partially visible in front of the post so it’s probably true. I can trust a random stranger when they tell me another random stranger said something true
This is making the rounds but I have yet to see any source.
