Right wing tariffcels make sense to me because American conservatism hates life itself. Left wing tariffcels are idiots at best and first world chauvinists at worst (and bad at that!). “Uhhh the US should destroy Cambodian society a second time so Americans can go to the textile factories” dumbass.

A lot of "post-left" personalities like Brand claim they were pushed away from the left but were in fact drawn to the right as a means of escaping accountability for their own actions

It’s weird how extra costs trickle down to consumers but extra profits don’t. What’s that all about

instead of posting things like this before some of us have even finished our coffee (excellent episode by the way) have you considered maybe just checking yourself into a jail for a night or something

ChatGPT is prompted to draw itself "if you were a person" and in three different images, draws a caucasian man with glasses, brown hair, and a beard.

i can get 3 refurbished gameboys for that price, meaning that i can play one in one hand each and the third with my left foot while i balance on the right. thats a level of haptic and physical challenge & gameplay modern consoles cant match

One interesting thing I've noticed is that people with a background in finance are downplaying the tariffs, and the economists I know are basically on suicide watch. Do with that information what you will but, imo, econs are much better suited to analyze the macro effects of a situation like this.

Kind of funny that a lot of this is happening because all these rich and powerful people are afraid to contradict a fey old dunce who watches TV for 19 hours every day. A fitting way to go out for the worst and wimpiest elite the US ever produced. "Can't read, didn't want to get yelled at."

"we tried to warn you!"

no, you carefully explained why you don't care for marginalized people. you support genocide. effective wages have been declining for 40 years & the savings and purchasing power of each generation has gotten smaller. you lectured us that we were actually doing well. lol

4 panel comic of someone saying "leftists cost us 2024 and 2016's elections". Someone else replies with "wow! so we're important and Dems should earn our support?" 
The person who asked the question silently pauses, then gets upset.
