if I was a young person being told that the best our economic system can ever offer me is working longer and longer hours to live with more and more roommates and eat worse and worse food, I might start getting this crazy idea that we need a new economic system
I Paid off my mortgage last month. Thirty years.
Bank sent the deed over, congratulations, it's yours free and clear.
Two weeks later the county tax bill shows up. $9,400. And that's not a one time thing, that's every year until I die.
Stop paying it and eventually they take the house. The one I just spent three decades buying.
So what actually changed here?
For thirty years I paid a bank so I could live in my own house. Now I pay the county so I can live in my own house.
Different envelope. Same arrangement.
Nobody ever finishes paying for a home. You just run out of banks.
What a nightmare. By implementing the tariffs illegally, and now having to unwind them, the Trump administration created over $100 billion of profit for corporations selling foreign products, at the expense of American consumers.
Your refund: $0.00
Apple’s profit: $2.2 billion
@DaddyThebearde1@sneako Pornhub, pedophilia and oppression is what USA is all about. Not your fake version of Christianity created a couple of hundred years ago.
Today, I saw a Palestinian child picking up the brain of another Palestinian child.
Yes the actual brain.
He used a small rag to pick it up.
I also saw an infant ejected from his mother’s womb, due to the sheer power of the explosives Israel used in Gaza last night.
But the most inhumane thing was witnessing someone open up a baby’s soft pink onesie - only to discover pieces of bones and diaper inside.
Israel evaporated her little body with chemical weapons that are internationally banned.

They have a word for every form of resistance.
If you fight with weapons, you are a terrorist.
If you fight with boycotts, you are antisemitic.
If you fight with words, you are spreading hate.
If you fight with international law, you are politicizing the courts.
If you document the casualties, you are spreading propaganda.
If you mourn publicly, you are inciting violence.
If you survive and refuse to be silent about surviving, you are a threat to stability.
There is no form of resistance they will permit.
Because the point was never to find a form of resistance they could accept.
The point was to make resistance itself the crime, so that the original violence, the violence that created the conditions requiring resistance, could be discussed, if at all, as an unfortunate but necessary background detail.
The trick is not complicated.
It just requires everyone to look at the resistance and never at what produced it.
They have spent centuries perfecting the art of controlling where you look.
