  • How amazing - it turns out capitalism works best when consumers have the ability to vote with their wallets. Meanwhile in the US, I'm going to start handing out swastika stencils to people can spray paint them onto Model S's.

  • The phone call is coming from inside the house!

  • Probably because you can still sell cannibal chickens to people.

  • Then Zion will not have victory.

  • It's true. And we should all be doing that. If you're in the US, I promise you there are people in your community/local government who are desperate for any sort of support. Build bike lanes, build community gardens, help your neighbors. A lot of them need it.

    My previous statement was purely in reply to people getting mad when you point out that they're in a certain percentile. Realistically, what do you expect people to do with that information? What you're basically telling them is that in Sudan, they'd be the kings of the castle. But that's kind of useless information to someone living in middle of nowhere Kentucky, for example.

  • Nazis really don't like it when you point out that they're Nazis. It's very strange, given how much room "Pride" and "Honor" take up in their ideology.

  • I'm glad you two are enjoying winning your fake argument against no one

  • In fairness, what are they going to do about being born into a richer slice of the world pie? As shitty as it is, people won't have much sympathy for those doing worse than them unless they've achieved a certain baseline. If they can't conceive of how life could be worse (many issues in this fragment), they won't accept or care that others are suffering.

  • They're convinced they're right regardless of what we do. You can't reason with people like that.

  • That's what fascism is about. Do not tolerate them, do not reason with them. Ban them and (if necessary) kill them.

  • Something's already happened to it. If you're not about to retire soon then you're probably never seeing a dime.

  • Oh no, Apple had no time to create five milions dongles, each for one specific use case, each of which cost $50 apiece. A tragedy.

  • Other countries were waiting for the new administration, since that would signal what our stance was going to be for the next 4 years. It's true that Trump doesn't care about Gaza, but he certainly would like to raze it and build some hotels. At the same time, people stateside might like to protest, but more and more are afraid of being whisked away by plainclothes nobodies to El Salvador. It is possible to say that Harris would not have done a better job stopping the genocide and also that she was still the correct answer.

  • Cool! People use that as an expression of exasperation.

  • Fair, I guess.

  • You and I and millions, I'm sure. But not enough. Even now, as the things he promised he would do come to fruition, people are still just... numb to it.

  • Hello! I realized I was looking at a different comment chain, which made me think that.

    Now:

    Basically, what I think needed to happen is a) Harris wins narrowly, and b) we take the energy that people are just now starting to cultivate under Trump (i.e. as he does everything he promised to do and more, for the benefit of seemingly no one but him) and protest because Harris wasn't good enough. Americans cannot keep living in a world where every presidential election is life and death, because that guarantees fascism. The only good thing about what's going on right now is that leopards' faces are being eaten.

    I did not want Harris because she wasn't a good enough candidate. Plain as. She was the better of the two candidates we have, but that's simply not good enough anymore. It hasn't been for what, four of the last five election cycles? We need more than two viable candidates (end FPTP), a fragmenting of parties (suicide while FPTP is active), and/or people to wake the fuck up.

  • You right! I think I was reading someone else's comment.
