Used to be? As late as 2011 I saw entire businesses dedicated to selling pirated movies.

Oh, I don’t know about that. I think Musk as a unique ability to spend money.
Well, people saying right is violently psycho, just pointing out that the left is just as bad.
On the low end I haven’t seen wages increase, if anything they’ve fallen, but they may be more to do with the whole of 2020 craziness that resulted in even greater worker shortages amongst the laborers, and the system comming back to equilibrium.
Foreign policy blunders? Pretty sure that’s the first thing Biden did. Jump out of Afghanistan so fast we abandoned Europe and trampled some of our own.
Then there’s the whole, cripple the European economy thing. I know there’s more to it than that, but with the Ukraine thing, America really pressured Europe into crippling itself.
But I digress. I’m not trying to defend trump, nor attack Biden. Just note my casual observinces of my local economy.
But what if you are an Italian cop?
I feel that the (crazy) leftists would support this.
Well, the standing president isn’t exactly the ideal picture of someone who isn’t facist…
Most people I meet seem reasonable until they get behind a keyboard… Or a wheel.
Thank you.
Making something obviously shameful is to do so with reason. Telling people they are stupid and being manipulated is not people reacting by digging in, they are just responding to personal attacks. That falls to self-defense. Rational discussions about your own beliefs give others a chance to accept them. Trying to force them is just… Well… Facisim.
Policies of Trump… I don’t know. About year two into his presidency, wages went up quite a bit in areas I lived in. Jobs became more available. General craziness was down, except for all those spouting hate at Trump the entire time.
I’m not saying I particularly paid much attention or attribute community growth due to his presidency, but things were getting better while he was president and dramatically tanked a year or two after Biden took over.
Just the general feel of places I’ve lived over the past 8 years or so.
For reference, I lived in low density suburban/rural areas during this time. May be way different in proper cities.
Exact same thing the left is doing. Non stop telling us how y is good and x is bad. If your family supports x, clearly they are crazy jew natzis who much be eliminated from your life! Get out now!!!
Also, Trump was saying that? I don’t remember that being brought up before.
Or if you read that story about how people rioted, burned down buildings, looted, attacked jews, etc… etc… etc… in portland… You never know how randomly violent /those/ people will be.
Seriously, people are fucked on both sides, and the more I watch things, the more I believe that it’s the people left and right of center that are the psychos.
The far right and left seem tame by comparison.
It’s like the honorable Zap Branagan said. You can’t trust those neutrals.
Only if you pair it with sexualality
The only people who told me Covid would kill me is those in power. Everyone else seemed to think it was just another virus…
We also found it strange that we were told it’s a major issue for at risk people (duh, everything is), but then sent certain groups, like the elderly, that were confirmed sick back into their communities of at risk folk…
It was a cluster of nonsense. Yea, we want to be safe. We don’t want to get sick even if it is minor, but the cluster of clusters was clusterific.
We are, and if you don’t understand that… I mean, it’s better to know our failings than to not know them… Or let ego refuse them.
I’d say that problem happened well before Ol’ Zuck thought to steal the Facebook idea and run with it.
Polls are almost always worthless.
True, or you could enjoy the commute, in which case is a double win.
But yea, money is basically time debt owed to you by society, so if spending money to get time, it balances out. Kinda like how spending money on assets doesnt directly affect net worth.
True, but this was in kandahar, I expect not much as changed…Except perhaps the selection.
