/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

  • What we get upset about

    Jump

  • I probably don't spend all day thinking about my coworker's grandpa because I didn't kill him. However, since the US is using our public money, how could I not care? Those are bombs built in my country, by my government, being dropped in my name. I literally spend every day focused on what my Zionist government is doing. It keeps me up at night.

    Maybe this is a limitation of my ability to care. I care more about dead Irianians than I care about people in the US being forced to pay higher gas prices. They're finally feeling a fraction of a fraction of the pain that we have inflicted on the world. Fuck em.

  • That's exactly what you're implying! You're saying those poor poor people who only care about gas and don't give a shit about slaughter being committed in our name with our public money just don't have time to care about anything. They're innocent smol beans who are trying their best.

    Me? I must have such an easy life with tons of free time and no responsibilities, that's why I can waste my time caring about genocide and imperialism. If I had real responsibilities, then maybe I'd care less about bombing schools and hospitals.

  • The implication here, of course, is that anyone who cares about children being murdered in Iran is coming from a position of privilege. I must just have such an easy fucking life that I have time to care about other people! I guess I don't have any problems, I'm not working hard manual labor every day or drowning in debt or living in constant terror that the wave of trans hate is going to get me killed. I guess my problems aren't real and I'm not forced to sell plasma to hang on by my fucking fingernails, my life must be great, and that's why I have time to care.

    The reality, of course, is that the most privileged people care about Iran the least. They care about gas prices because they drive oversized vehicles, because they can afford to own huge trucks and SUVs.

  • AI companies are paying in tokens to 1) generate more users for their shitty product and 2) save money.

    Those are not signs of a healthy, growing industry. Those look like the last desperate attempts to right the sinking ship.

  • Most people don’t have the mental capacity to think about every problem that doesn’t affect them.

    They do. The problem is that they don't even try.

  • What I keep thinking is that they're acting like there aren't going to be elections anymore. This is not the behavior of politicians that have any fear of the midterms.

    Is it just my experiences or do most legal English speaking American immigrants vehemently hate the left and left wing ideals. Why does the left go to bat so hard for them?

  • $10,000 grants to high-performing high school graduates to buy homes or start businesses

    This wouldn't buy a home or start a business, this wouldn't even get you a used car, what even is this?

  • They could still give us free healthcare, free college, and state of the art infrastructure anyway.

    They just don't want to.

  • It's only 24 miles wide at its narrowest point. You're right that they couldn't clog it completely, but making the waters un-navigable for large oil tankers seems doable. Especially since the crews wouldn't just have to watch out for the sunken ships, but also large and dangerous chunks of floating debris and hazards they can't see under the water.

    The imagery conjured by "death valley" to me is a boat graveyard - endless wrecks from shore to shore.
