Counterpoint: the military attack on illegals is a first step. An attempt to put the blame for all of our country’s ills onto a specific class or ethnicity. This is exactly what Hitler did with the Jews. The next step would be to make a play to convince the populace that annexing another country would be an effective solution to cure the problems of the nation.

The fat orange fuck has literally bragged about reading Mein Kampf. He’s reading from Hitler’s playbook and using it as an instruction manual.

Make no mistake, we were headed there anyway.

Sadly with great orange Hitler in charge we’re probably going to be the axis powers this time along with Putin and Winnie the Pooh and the rest of the world doesn’t stand a chance because we have all the bombs.

i didnt do anything.

Exactly. Hence why the assholes get away with driving good people out. Maybe if people stood up and told the trolls to STFU and instead defended these people they wouldn’t be forced out of the community.

I don’t know about you all but as soon as Trump was elected I immediately resolved to cut my personal spending by as much as humanly possible. I’ve already canceled many of my subscription services and I have reduced my use of Amazon and other online purchases to absolute zero. I’m going to work on paying down every dime of debt I owe as soon as possible and save every penny. Because shit’s going to get fucked in the next 4 years with these clowns in charge. It’s gonna be a light Christmas in my household this year.

I highly recommend you all do the same. Don’t be the last one holding the bag when the music stops and reality sets in. For example, look at the people in the UK after Brexit.

You should look up the last time the US employed massive tariffs in a trade war. Spoilers, it was just before the Great depression.

Not to mention literally all of the good processors come from Taiwan.

You should amend this because it’s not just “illegal” immigrants they are after. The rhetoric around the Haitians in Ohio is clearly directed at any and all immigrants legal or not.

Watch her get out in a year and be invited to go on the Republican lecture circuit to talk about how woke politics is ruining American college campuses.

This isn’t a joke, I seriously think this will happen.

What I love is the implication that Satan wants lots and lots of unplanned pregnancies. As if that hasn’t been a cornerstone of the Catholic doctrine for centuries.

He hopes that Trump, on the other hand, uses his business acumen to bring down the cost of the products he sells in his store, many of which are imported from overseas. “Trump is not perfect, but we have no choice,” he says.

Hashim’s other major concern is Gaza, where more than 42,000 people have been killed by Israeli attacks. “The No 1 reason [to not vote for Harris] is that she is supporting Israel 100%,” he said.

I don’t understand how someone this stupid is able to run a successful business. The high price of goods now is completely due to republican policies that have taken the brakes off of corporate price gouging and Trump has stated that not only is he 100% supportive of Israel but he will happily supercharge their genocide of the Palestinians in Gaza.

You all should see the shit going on in a post about Gisèle Pelicot where they are literally saying that the tiny fraction of women who commit sexual assault is an excuse for decrying the (absolutely understandably angry) women holding signs that say “NOT ALL MEN BUT ALWAYS A MAN”.

I really fucking despise these false equivalencies.

That percentage came from the 2021 report by the French government. This is not outdated information. And it’s pertains to France not America.

It’s real, it’s just not exclusive to the internet. Anything capitalism touches becomes in enshittified eventually.

It’s not the realization of the years that have passed that makes you old. It’s the belief that the things that you loved when you were younger are somehow better than what exists now that makes you old.

I switched to Firefox over the summer and have been mostly happy with my decision.

However, there have been a LOT of issues with video playback on certain sites and I really don’t know how to fix them. Searches have been just about useless in regards to finding a fix. The worst one is Nebula. The video often just freezes while the audio just keeps trucking along like nothing is wrong. This has happened to a more limited extent with some YouTube videos as well. And the TAB crash on some sites is quite infuriating.

1. Lack of competition in the market via mergers and acquisitions

2. Companies change things on the back end (“twiddle their knobs”) to improve their fortunes and have a united, consolidated front to prevent any lawmaking that might constrain them

3. Companies then embrace tech law to prevent new entrants into the market or consumer rights (see: DMCA, etc.)

This is the criteria he has laid out for the “enshitifacation” of the Internet.

This is funny to me because this is the exact pattern of every industry and service in the United States ever. The Internet isn’t special, it’s just the latest frontier for capitalism.

When I heard about this movie I thought is was a live action movie adaptation of the anime classic Doomed Megalopolis.

Turns out is was a doomed Megalopolis of a different sort.

We have an aging, fat, sick society and they require very expensive care.

This is the exact reason why the mandate existed. Having all the young and healthy people paying into the insurance as well offsets the costs. That being said it would have been far better to have a public insurance run by the government that wasn’t beholden to profit. AKA M4A

Once again we are reminded of the fact that 4chan is full of bullshit.

Actually up until about a decade or so ago it had been Republicans who were promising to reschedule weed. The Democrats had been firmly against it until very very recently.
