No, I’m sorry, voters don’t even remember what prices used to be, mostly. Because that’s how people work: we don’t have years of price history stored in our heads.

“Woe is us, no one afford groceries” has just become this weird meme, even though it’s very demonstrably false for the vast majority

it’s not a loaded question. I’m just asking why you’re so in love with an apartheid state, which Israel is by definition.

Why are you so in love with racism and apartheid?

“Paycheck to paycheck” is a meaningless term pushed by payday loan companies.

*Israel has continued the occupation and apartheid rule.

Stop simping for an apartheid state ran by a criminal.

You mean the left gets mad he’s right? Covid was far more impactful than a 2.5% raise and yet people don’t really talk about it anymore

What steps has Israel taken? We’ve rewarded Israel murdering Americans for far too long. Israel is by far the single worst American “ally” on earth.

Apartheid simps can fuck off.

You sound like Putin.

“This land was promised to me 3,000 years ago” lol fuck off with that bullshit, your old book doesn’t justify ethnic cleansing,

You’re denying reality and the Nabka. Do you just love ethnic cleansing?

Israel won’t let peace happen.

Like Israel wouldn’t continue attacking them anyway.

This, by the way, is one example of a tic of the American left that I despise: maintaining the talking point that "corporations aren't people" (trivially true in material reality, debatable at best in law) and then anthropomorphizing them when it's convenient for moral narratives about capitalism.

god this. PowerPoint has been abused into a memo function - HERES A MASSIVE WALL OF TEXT SLIDE. AND ANOTHER. WOW MORE TEXT. - that should be the word doc accompanying the PowerPoint, the PowerPoint should just have the key charts necessary to make your point and the word doc is the deep explanation

Which they did in cooperation with the IDF lol. Israel’s constant aggression (and frequent murders of Americans) have been rewarded for far too long. Israel must be forced to stop the constant aggression.

That doesn’t make it not ghoulish nonsense.

PMO: Benjamin Netanyahu decides full IDF occupation of Gaza | The Jerusalem Post The Prime Minister's Office conveyed the message to the Chief of Staff: If this does not suit you, then you should resign.

Think about every pro-Israel person who denied this was the plan for the past 22 months; who gaslit you; denied this to you; pretended this wasn't the plan.

And then never believe those liars about anything ever again.

telling people "you will have to be killed in a hurricane because of israel" is definitely going to make them like israel more

Israel routinely murders Americans. The fact that America has never bombed them for it is probably why they keep doing it, nobody else gets to just murder Americans like that.

Businesses are amoral entities that exist to make money. Complaining about rainbow capitalism is an admission that you don't like it when what is prosocial and what is profitable overlap, a sentiment that is genuinely too stupid for words.

Exactly, so stop expecting them to act like one.

Once more, with feeling: the alternative to rainbow capitalism was never rainbow communism, and you are a fool if you thought it was.

My Democratic colleagues and I just left the state of Texas to break quorum and stop Trump’s redistricting power grab.

Trump is trying to rig the midterm elections right before our eyes. But first he’ll have to come through us.

It’s time to fight back.

Talarico and Texas Dems break quorum to Halt Gerrymandering Vote.

Which is wrong.

You wanted... more emails from a prominent Democrat?

How it feels zoning out and imagining a vivid scene of my characters in my made up world

I wish we had a culture of driving that had more respect for the power of cars and their ability to do harm.

In principle, I am not opposed to liberals/the left spending more time and energy on figuring out how to reach and communicate with straight men trying to be romantically and/or sexually successful.

In practice, I'm not sure it would really work no matter how much time and energy is spent.

the dumbest voters in America think land gambling (real estate) is a more noble profession and source of wealth than public service. that's been our biggest issue since he came down the escalator
