Just realized there are like 2,000 MAGA's in my comment section furious because I criticized using the word "retard"
Let me tell you something MAGA's
I get it
I'm an older millennial. In middle school we said "retard", myself included. We even beat our arms against our chest to make fun of disabilities.
Sort of like Trump did that one time at a rally.
It was a whole big thing growing up.
But guess what?
You grow up.
You learn new information that sometimes helps you realize the error in old habits.
That's called character development and MAGA is completely hostile to it.
You guys are nostalgic for the politically incorrect, insensitive, and cruel trends of the past.
OK so say retard.
You have freedom of speech.
Say it, stick it to the libs, knock yourself out.
But I also have freedom of speech, and I simply think it's corny.
You log onto this app and you read retard, retard, retard, retards.
Find a new trick MAGA.
🔥 Here's Sen. Whitehouse's entire remarkable speech opposing Todd Blanche: "What's left of this committee when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has this DOJ been asked what became of the $50,000 that the FBI reported it handed to Homan in a bribery sting? ... our Republican colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil"
The number of replies that say “make DC square again,” as if that would turn VA red, makes me wonder if VA libertarians or VA MAGA have ever looked at a map. Yikes.
@FitzGSN_ Imho the 04-05 lockout and subsequent loss of ESPN, is why the (soft) cap of the NBA is more than $50 million above the (hard) cap of the NHL. I also think that’s partly why the NHL hasnt gone to a hard cap. Even with Sid Ovi et al, that lockout has set the NHL back a decade(s?)
@Steve_Dangle Door 5: Each team gets a 5 minute major power play 5-on-4, can’t pull your goalie. Team with most goals after the two majors gets the extra point. 🤷♂️
I think you are confusing sequencing here. Let me help:
1) Trump says the Ukraine war isn't American war
2) Trump starts trade wars with NATO allies.
3) Trump stops aid to Ukraine.
4) Trump threatens European NATO countries with invasion
5) Trump goes to war with Iran saying that no help is needed.
6) European NATO members say that Iran is not a NATO war and no one consulted with them.
Satchel Paige once intentionally walked 2 hitters so he could to face Josh Gibson with the Bases Loaded.
Just so Satchel could prove who was the Best, 1 on 1. 🤣
Told by the Buck O’Neil, perhaps the greatest storyteller in baseball history.
You are trying to blame socialism for events that were created, executed, protected, and prolonged entirely by capitalism.
Let us start with 2008.
The crash did not happen because the U.S. government helped people buy homes.
It happened because Wall Street turned housing into a casino and sold toxic debt as investment-grade gold.
Your government’s crime was not socialism.
It was obedience.
It deregulated banks, repealed safeguards, and let private lenders gamble with the entire global economy.
When the bubble burst, capitalism did not take responsibility.
It begged the state to save it.
And it did.
Banks were bailed out.
Corporations were rescued.
Shareholders survived.
Families did not.
If you think that is socialism, you do not understand the word.
It is corporate welfare.
It is capitalism demanding public money to clean up private greed.
Now COVID.
You claim 95 percent of Americans would have been fine without lockdowns or vaccines.
That is not analysis. It is delusion.
The only reason hospitals did not collapse completely was state intervention.
The only reason supply chains did not break irreversibly was state coordination.
The only reason your economy still exists is because the government pumped trillions into private markets to stop capitalism from eating itself alive.
If capitalism worked, it would not need a national-scale injection of public money to keep from dying.
Then your final claim.
"USD is ruined because of interventions."
No.
The dollar is ruined because capitalism cannot survive a crisis without socialism propping it up.
Every time the market fails, the state prints money to save it, then capitalism blames the state for saving it.
This is the part you refuse to see:
Capitalism creates the disaster.
The state absorbs the damage.
Then capitalism complains that the rescue proves socialism is the problem.
You are not critiquing socialism.
You are confessing capitalism’s dependence on it.
You just do not realize it.
And that is the real failure here.
Not the economy.
Your understanding of it.
@dustinkittle@peta Im with you 💯. And I need to thank you. When anyone asks me, from now on, I���m just going to say “I’m carry an extra 50 pounds of wool weight and just need to get it sheared. Thank you.”
@DrNeilStone It’s the only part of the cell anyone remembers from 5th grade science (the average literacy rate) so it’s a recognizable but not really understood thing for most people. So if you’re gullible or willing to believe, it’s a great word to use to convince someone you’re right.
@FBIDirectorKash 45 people including a “sandwich thrower” in a city of 700,000? Kinda saying that there’s no real crime wave to support warranting calling in the NG huh? Don’t get hurt patting yourself on the back their too hard, kiddo.
@NotHoodlum@RepNancyMace Side question, why the hell did she take her driver into the bathroom with her? Like, what, was it leaning up against the stall door? You have a bag. What are you doing?
