  • That’s what happens when you give the richest people tax breaks and subsidise all your rich buddies endevours without uplifting the lowest socio-economic portions if society.

    The best way to fix the economy is always to give the poorest more money (or less financial burden) because they spend a much higher percentage (usually all) of their excess income to keep afloat or improve their way of life.

    The worst way is to give rich people more money. Because they horde it, gamble on non tangible goods (stocks, crypto, “ai” etc), send it off shore, keep it in the family and share it with other rich people etc.

    It’s ironic that the party that always does the worse thing for the economy and demonises doing the best is seen by the masses as the “good for the economy” party.







  • Yeah, I came to the same understanding when I used to counter conspiracy nuts denying climate change and evolution etc.

    You’ll never convince them they’re wrong or hypocrites… But people who stumble upon the thread that are not super critical thinkers will see the discussion and you can help them realise the person is actually full of shit.

    Sometimes they can lie believably enough that people fall for it, and some of those people will snap out of it when they see the contradiction and logical fallacies.


  • The nra, constantly talking about the need for everyone to have guns to prevent tyranny.

    Now government agents are doing illegal shit (kidnapping, assaulting, deporting legals, and outright murder) and all the of a sudden “citizens need to stop antagonising” is their reply? Because it’s their thugs.

    The bright side of all this horrific bullshit is that, assuming it’s even possible to have fair elections in the future, you can immediately dismiss anyone on the right when they try to play the “moral superior” card as a justification for their bullshit

    “but freedom of speech”, “2nd amendment”, “protect kids from pedofiles”. Nah fuck of mate. You completely disregarded all of that when it was “once of you”. You don’t get to play that card anymore.
