  • Trump tells Walmart to 'eat the tariffs' after retailer warned it will raise prices

  • Bernie supports targeted tariffs on low wage countries like China. He disagrees that tariffs on higher wage countries, like Germany, are a good idea.

  • How would you define your white American culture?

    Jump

  • Do you know nothing of county/state fairs and various city festivals? Crab and crawfish boils? Rodeos? School shootings? Taco Tuesday?

    But seriously, you are framing culture in the context of race and that is un-American. American culture is all cultures that we integrate. Other countries that are more homogeneous in their heritage only have their culture from their heritage, America has their culture and like 5 other ones that we draw from to make a culture as diverse as our population. Americans, regardless of genetic heritage, enjoy a rich tapestry of culture as our culture.

    Go to another country and try to find Mexican, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Indian, Ethiopian, Arabic, German, and Irish food. I can drive in a direction and hit all of those in any major American city and stop in somewhere for a burger or pizza. That is American culture.

    Go to another country and try to celebrate the Chinese New Year, Eid, Hanukkah, Christmas, Holi, and Kwanza. I can do that every year. That is American culture.

    You say that is everything and nothing, I say that is America and I am proud that we can't be so narrowly defined and have the freedom to enjoy all the cultures our people bring to the table.

  • A dictatorship can be moral if it is benevolent. Resistance to such a government would be terrorism.

  • Anything less than actual human or world interaction is less effective for child development. If we look at Coco melon, it is actively detrimental.

  • I mean yeah, but only if you pointed the car at the school and put a brick on the gas pedal.

  • What, do you expect parents to parent instead of letting the TV parent? Based.

  • True, the problem is no different than the horse being dehydrated and not knowing it is thirsty. Doesn't matter if we show the water is there if the horse won't/can't perceive that it is thirsty because it has tied their identity and worldview to being thirsty.

    We can only offer our opinion until the last straw compromises their viewpoint in a manner that finds the chink.

    Unfortunately the emotionally fueled current meta is to brow beat fecklessly.

  • True, but a considerable amount of the population has the causes that they will put themself on the cross for, regardless of how wrong it may be.

  • There is no way to reason sense into someone who has reasoned themselves into their mindset. No evidence or proof can change their mind for them.

    Any reply on confirms the beliefs of anyone who reads it, regardless of their side on the matter.

  • Netflix will show generative AI ads midway through streams in 2026

  • They are substantially cheaper to make and therefore have a greater profit margin because they can charge more for the advertising space.

    These types of comments from companies are for investors and not a warning to consumers of what is coming.

  • Don't forget people denying a member of Congress was caught on video commiting simple assault and obstruction of a federal law enforcement officer.

    Federal simple assault

    Obstruction

    Nobody is above the law. There are procedures for oversight and bypassing those procedures are no different for a member of Congress than a typical citizen committing the same acts outside of the same position. Bypassing lawful procedure is not okay, regardless of political affiliation, and should not be tolerated.
