It definitely doesn’t and the bigger problem is that our actual enemies know it.

Ooh I’m finally in the 1%…of IBCK non-lesbian listeners. Happy to be tagging along.

With performances like these from grown men, it’s baffling how teenagers got stuck with the reputation for mindless conformity with peers.

Won’t someone consider the plight of the inside traders?!?

It’s called weaponized incompetence and it is not a new skill for many of these men.

I love this “head in the sand” journey for them. Should go over well with their viewers.

So…money alleviates poverty.

Serious question, how do we keep this going and expand it in Oregon?

They don’t want their sons and daughters to die in a war with Venezuela.

Seems like lean-blue-when-finances-are-tough should be a bigger story.

He’s so insecure about all of this. In so far over his head.

They shatter windows b/c they don’t have the capability to follow if the car sped off?

This highlights how the way forward requires building better structures rather than a return to pre-2016 life.

I worried about this all the time during my time as an officer 😐

Peasants in a feudal system.

“Experts warn”

The general public saw this coming a hundred miles away.

In the summer, the administration literally said it would take them a couple of months before they could release the files. Enough time to scrub them.

The scrubbing is finished.

He links together the ways we now rent everything as the new feudalism and how only the few owners of capital are the capitalists and everyone else is a serf. And this rings true. (I don’t know much else about him or his background.)

We’ve already arrived back at a feudal system per Technofeudalism by Yanis Faroufakis.

It appears to be a quicksand moment where he can’t find footing on any ground.

IMHO, he should stick with the “prices are cheaper” mantra. I love that journey for him.

“Clergy” or “faith leader” tends to cover all bases when referring to folks wearing clerical collars.

Of course they don’t leave. Not that we’ve called their bluff, can we get to taxing them already?

14.11.2025 06:43 — 👍 1    🔁 0    💬 0    📌 0

Of course. Because the rich also benefit from public services like roads, hospitals, and schools that their taxes go toward.

Yeah, shifty.

I love this journey for them.

Breaking trust with their base because out here in the wild the winds have changed.

We’ll even tell you the results of public survey polls 6 months before the poll can tell you.
