A “fiscal conservative” is like the parent who tells their kid they can have ice cream, drives them there, let’s them order…
Then doesn’t pay for it so the guy at the counter throws it away.
If they were really “fiscally conservative” they’d want to tax the wealthy like we did even under Reagan. Like, there’s nothing wrong with balancing the budget, they just refuse to tax the fucking wealthy to accomplish it.
Well, thanks for the links!
However, the target can also see you.
Not really…
If you knew what you were doing you could look anywhere
If you were a fool of a Took you just turned on a giant beacon that everyone who knew what they were doing and had their own immediately looked at.
Think of it like how some people “look for aliens” by beaming out a giant “hey, look at me! I don’t know what I’m doing!” Signal to anyone who can hear.
That’s what happened in LOTR. Then others used their own crystal balls to look at where the signal was and saw Pippen.
Everytime I see the Drake meme I think:
Why are people still using that pedophile in memes?
But this time there’s two of them.
So out of the two pedophiles pictured, why are you still using Drake’s picture?
Ignoring the odd idea that this hypothetical person is somehow completely unemployable regardless of industry or upskilling
You’re so stuck in a capitalist mindset that you view people being “unemployable” as a personal failure on their part, rather than a success of society as a whole…
Were you out there screaming “think of the children” and “they can do anything they put their mind to” when people banded together to say maybe 7 year old children don’t have to work in the fucking coal mines anymore?
It’s the same as any other group that manages to accumulate this much.
They just refuse to believe it’s not sustainable, and if you don’t agree with them. Then they fire you if you worked for them, if you were a politician they found a competitor to knock you out of office and say the lies they wanted to hear.
Which is the crux of the issue.
They’ve spent decades and billions of bribes to make sure there were two options, and both would do what billionaires tell them to. But the billionaires no longer control both parties.
Hell, they arguably don’t control either, trump just usually agrees with them on his own.
They’re losing their minds because there’s no rational reason to keep the current system going…
It’s impossible to keep it going at the current pace. Doesn’t matter if the wealthy want it to last forever. They can’t keep accumulating more and more finite and necessary resources.
Eventually the current economic system will go away.
Just a matter of how that happens, and who is (figuratively and maybe literally) left standing when the dust settles
If you want actual advice just put your stuff out there.
Dont apologize for it or make excuses that you’re new.
Just put it out there and see if people like it
That being said, try not to do it a lot or in super general communities because some people may consider it spammy.
Last names weren’t really a thing until very recently in human history.
That’s why a lot of last names are places or jobs.
You were Chris the Farmer, or Chris from Cleveland. And when your king wanted a last name to tax you more accurately, you likely didn’t give a fuck and just said whatever.
But the thing is people would say names/jobs in different languages.
An immigrant from Germany who spoke mostly German would say “My name is John Deutsch”. if they were fluent in English they may say “My name is John German”.
Same guy. Describing himself the same way, just in two different languages.
Fo Colombus specifically, that’s not even his name in his native language. It was Columbo, which meant Dove and given mostly to orphans, but at least his dad had the same name. Whenever last names became standard, Columbus’s oldest living direct ancestor was an orphan
So like, it’s not asking why just the places named after him are different, it’s why he had different names.
And the answer is people just really didn’t care that much about names until very recently.
You mean in 2020 when Biden won?
When a dem becomes president, they name the DNC chair, and the DNC does a performative vote to confirm.
So the voting members of the DNC didn’t have an opportunity to move the party left like they just did.
If Kamala had won, she would have named a DNC chair just like the ones that had been fucking up.
So to be clear, I held my nose and voted D like always.
But if she had won the party would still be fucked. Settling for a neoliberal never fixed anything, because they knew if they let an unbiased DNC happen, progressives would take over the party.
And that just happened.
Still a better result than them holding onto power without needing to do that.
Like, people get that right?
If that happens it’s a bad thing, because obviously. But it makes it even more undeniable that there are only 4 boxes that bring about political change.
Republicans taking those blatant of steps to subvert democracy won’t work out for them.
Because since 2016 the DNC has only cared about the president and not down ballot races…
The states we gave up on weren’t impossible to win, they were just impossible to win after the DNC Victory Fund took all their donations and left them penniless.
Like, if I told you 100 of your neighbors will starve to death, that sounds depressing as fuck. If you then found out they were starving because I raised grocery prices even though unsold food was thrown away, these higher prices make me an extra 10kna year
You shouldn’t just be mad your neighbors are gonna starve…
You should be absolutely irrate at me for causing the problem and pretending there is nothing anyone can do except be sad.
I feel like that’s a pretty apt analogy for what the DNC has been doing to any state that didn’t do exactly what they said including removing their primary delegates.
Shits been a lot worse than most people realize. So it’s going to be very easy to retake a lot of ground. Just by the DNC not acting like fucking idiots for the first time in a decade. And Obama’s 8 years the DNC was basically non-existent. Because I stead of fixing the DNC, Obama just fucking ignored it.
We’re going to gain a lot of seats, just because we already did a 180 from the Victory Fund nonsense that cost us those seats to begin with:
Going from bankrupting those state parties to the biggest funding push ever will allow those red/purple districts to fight back and flip seats.
If you’re out there running a positive energy coefficient like an absolute madlad…
But there’s no IAEA official definitionbecause there are a bunch of different reactor designs
Now, are they generating that type of force through speed, or sheer power?
I left /microblogmemes and /political memes
If there’s anymore left they’re just flying under the radar.
But those are “memes” by the Richard Dawkins original meaning of the term. Not “memes” as in “haha, guys like how stupid I am, don’t you think I’m stupid” humor.
Memes aren’t just shitty jokes, but thats all that’s in the shitty meme communities.
Or if you good mateys know of any tricks one could apply, cause every other post here is about the US
A very simple method would just be blocking those as you see them.
And then keep blocking them.
It’s not exactly difficult, I do it with all the AI and most of the meme communities.
Every once and a while someone makes a new one, but you just block it when you see it.
I’m confused…
Your “business” is asking people to follow you on social media?
That’s…
That’s not a business. That’s not even a job
The letter doesn’t matter, their policy positions do
