Yea, because it is weird, you dolt. It’s literally just because it’s easier to say that it stuck, but it’s flatly useless. The country’s name is stupid, hard to deal with, and pretty much only the reality on the surface…much like the country itself.
I just say “US citizens”. It would probably be more accurate to say “citizens of the USA” buy my fucking god they aren’t worth that kind of effort.
The fact that ya’ll care at all is fucking weird, dude.
except for when it isn’t, like how here we’re saying that they literally keep marrying brown women, and indians no less, who have lately been getting a whole lot of shit online.
The fuck makes you think this is a flex?
No one is celebrating deportation, they’re very clearly pointing out that Trump doesn’t need to illegally use the army to back up ICE’s insane no-trial raids and deportations.
I think you’re simply missing the entire point. It isn’t talking about how great deportation was under democrats, it’s saying that deportation is just the cover for Trump pushing soldiers into states that generally disagree with him.
And Trump married an immigrant while Vance’s wife is a second generation immigrant. I know they aren’t smart enough for this to be some special ploy, conservatives regularly can’t extend empathy beyond things in front of their faces even if they can do so up until that point, but it just goes to show that whether they’re lying to fear-monger or just unable to have compassion at scale they clearly aren’t fit for office.
“If we don’t watch out, people are going to get hurt, people are going to be upset. It’s going to be the No. 1 thing on the nightly news all over the place,” Justice, who served as West Virginia’s governor for eight years before winning his Senate seat last year, told Politico.
Because, apparently, no one of any value has been hurt yet. He never figured it out, there’s just a personal consequence now. He looks old as shit, I hope hell claws him under the earth soon and cooks him for eternity.
Aiming low because it’s easy to hit, which is necessary when the punishment for not hitting is being stripped of everything that can make you safe and secure(money and private insurance, in that system). People are terrified and it’s 33/33/33 if they use that fear to fight for others, fight against everyone else, or shove their heads in the sand and pretend there’s nothing they can do about it. Oddly enough there’s also a spike in test scores and shit because competition for jobs has gotten so fierce, but at the same time bad management isn’t doing anything of real value with that talent and all it’s really doing is hurting everyone.
People don’t even actually need a reward for over-achieving, either. Most people will happily do it for their own pride and for the thrill of doing it. The issue is more that they are burnt out and rightfully not willing to put in the extra effort if their manager is just going to take the credit and they’ll watch their shitty raise, if they get one, still be outpaced by inflation year over year. Give me safety and a real life and I’ll do the rest for free; threaten me and you’ll be lucky I don’t direct that energy toward plucking your fucking eyes out.
Of course, and how we force the issue I don’t know. I wish people would just stop strategically voting altogether because it only delays, and grows, the issue but that’s a lost cause. Not that I don’t continue to fight that fight but I know that winning people over toward voting in their best interests isn’t the way.
I can’t remember where but there was specifically a complaint by a DNC person that the people were donating more money than the corporations were. Like, it’s not even the money, they just want the excuse to keep being shitty.
It also accentuates the need for ranked choice voting or something similar. You need to give a people a way to say what they want to say with nuance and power. If everyone says they wish they could vote for someone else but need to vote strategically then parties never need to be good and can just thump on about defeating the evil party.
Yes, I’m from Canada and vote NDP, how did you know?
“Tyranny is when I’m not allowed to do whatever without consequence because I’m a big baby bitch boy with a grade 6 or less reading level who’s pumped full of toxic masculinity, even when I’m a lady, and a kilo of insecurity injected straight to my spinal cord every time I lose at anything(and even when I still win but not by as much as I wanted to).”
They’re all just awful people who never grew up running on their baseline hardware like fucking animals. The funniest part is that they’re terrified of losing to people who want to install variois safety nets to insure that the loss isn’t too disasterous for them while they can only respond to any action against them with straight-up, literal death threats.
Yes, but there is something very special about the US being so deeply afraid of the left that they have nearly zero leftist representation in their pllitics while the center-right is called the far-left by their media. Other countries may also be seeing a growth in the far-right but at least there are established alternatives.
“Terrible” is a threshold that can move, though. You can bang on about “half the world is below average” until you’re blue in the face but you will still always miss the point that the average should be much higher than it is and the spread should be nearly as wide. There will be a rough limit to intelligence at some point but the US, for all its resources and money, still seems more interested in finding the lower limit than the upper one.
For the US.
The rest world has problems but oh my god the US is such a comically stupid place that has zero understanding of how the world works.
Because other than obvious hate-speech, leftists are the ones who actually practice freedom of speech while the right screams and yells and bans books.
The key difference that your awful take misses is the difference between the center-right and conservatives. The center-right will support business and capital far more than it should and will drag its heels on things like worker’s rights but progress can be made. Conservatives, on the other hand, are angry, fear-driven morons who cause real, direct physical harm to people for he crime of being not who their deranged leaders prefer.
Centrists are worthless and their inaction leads to real consequences but it is the Conservatives’ action that makes them so especially violent and dangerous and as much as the centre-right does nothing they, ultimately, are not the ones causing the right to commit these atrocities. In other words, shut the fuck up, you aren’t helping.
“Never interrupt your enemy while they are making a mistake.”
I’m not trying to imply that beduins are the enemy, more that insanely stupid people are and since I don’t wanna get into eugenics, well, this is all I got.
US history programs are 95% propaganda so it’s not surprising.
