Criticizing Inde Navarrette by assuming that any woman who is into traditionally masculine hobbies like playing video games or liking cars is doing it for male attention, is ironically a very misogynistic perspective to have.
noticed how all the marvel cast had shit to say when the internet declared that Chris Pratt was the worst Chris (it’s a fact btw) but mark ruffalo is being dragged through the mud for standing against a genocide and it’s crickets from them
When a group of YMCA campers needed to be rescued during the wildfires on our northern border, it was Canada who immediately helped. Not a word from Trump.
El-Sayed: You don't want to talk about gas prices. You don't want to talk about groceries….You want to bring up all this culture war
Watters: Do you think men should play in women’s sports?
El-Sayed: I'm running for U.S. Senate. It's insane. I'm out here trying to take on the health care crisis and big pharma, and you're asking me about who gets to play what sports
A top 5 reason to implement a wealth tax is related to this point below about China eating our lunch. If our super rich class was leading the world when it came to frontier industries, that would be a strong case to let them keep cooking.
Instead, their focus the past 15-20 years has been on building monopolies and moats, propping it up with ever-more-absurd financial engineering, media consolidation with the aim of stoking culture war and blunting criticism of Israel, which for some odd reason is supposed to be a national priority for us — all while falling behind China on robotics, batteries, EVs, and so on. We’re barely winning on AI if at all. They cheered as Trump effectively repealed the IRA, the biggest investment in new energy production in decades, and are now crying that there isn’t enough energy production for their AI.
If our billionaires were winners, we might consider defending them.
But our billionaires are losers, in several senses of the word, and they embarrass us on the international stage. A wealth tax will take them down a few pegs and hopefully let some winners rise up. We no longer have a meritocracy so it’s time to strip the participation medals from these monopolists.
So no, a wealth tax is not punishing you for your success. It’s punishing you for failure. Don’t like it? Stop losing.
Hello @Disney@Pixar I'm confused by this branding. This makes me firmly believe that Disney Pixar branding and franchising is officially MAGA affiliated! This image has made me unlikely to purchase one of your products ever again.
