The sheer audacity of this thread is breathtaking. You’re ranting about economic dependence while sipping on goods moved by California ports, living off federal subsidies your state didn’t earn, and whining that the coasts are somehow the problem.
Let’s get a few things straight:
1. Blue states fund you – California, New York, and Massachusetts pay more into the federal government than they get back. Red states? Takers. You cash the checks, we write them.
2. Imported labor? Sure. Because your states didn’t build institutions that attract talent. Tech boomed in California because people moved there with ideas and innovation. Don’t hate the brain drain; fix your schools.
3. Agriculture & water? Look up the Central Valley. California produces 1/3 of America’s vegetables and 2/3 of its fruits and nuts. If California vanished, your grocery store would look like a Depression-era pantry.
4. Manufacturing died in red states not because of blue-state voters, but because Republican lawmakers sold you out to free trade deals they now pretend to hate.
5. Textiles? Vietnam makes your shirts because billionaires lobbied to crush unions and offshored your jobs. And now you’re mad at me for pointing that out?
You’re just projecting. You’re mad the cities you sneer at built the economic engine that pays for the highway you drive on and the check your state cashes every year.
You want to lecture me on gratitude?
Start by thanking California. Then thank the USPS for carrying this L across state lines.
The worst part about seeing your ex after a break up is knowing that you know where all of their tattoos are under their clothes but you'll never be the one to run your hands over them again.
Trudeau told reporters that Trump didn't (fucking) understand tariffs, he said, “Our responsibility is to point out that in this way he would be actually not just be harming Canadians, who work so well with the United States; he’d actually be raising prices for American citizens as well and hurting American industry and businesses.”

This man lost to Biden.
Lost by ALOT.
If you think that this is ANYTHING other than misogyny at play you’re lying to yourself.
She is THE most qualified candidate on YEARS.
She is viciously intelligent and driven.
She is losing ground with MEN, latine & Blk voters.
as a British person how are Americans struggling between to pick a well educated woman or a convicted felon who’s going to make everyone’s lives awful (unless you’re rich).
This is about ten million times worse than Taylor Swift hugging a Trump supporter. “Problems on both sides” is the most cowardly uneducated and down right embarrassing thing you could possibly say about this election.
