"The idea that socialists want free stuff is the great lie of capitalism. Socialists want the fruits of our labor to be equitably distributed rather than allowing 10 old men to hoard half the planet's resources."
i STILL don’t understand how so many of you were hoodwinked into believing the government should not use the money you pay in taxes to create a social safety net that benefits you, fund public healthcare, lower housing costs, and make daily life more affordable.
Texas just made weed a felony after over 70% of voters voted to legalize it.That's what happens when incarceration rates go down and prisons start to lose money.
I just don’t understand how you’re going to call someone “Sleepy Joe” for years and then proceed to literally fall asleep in the middle of every press conference all the time.
NEW: The USS Abraham Lincoln was supposed to come home in May — instead, under Trump's Navy, its sailors are grinding through a ninth month at sea with no end date, and the crew is so broken that multiple have attempted suicide. This should be a national scandal.
OMFG!
This should be a national scandal.
Multiple sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln have attempted to jump overboard as the aircraft carrier’s deployment in the Middle East stretches months beyond what their families originally expected.
Think about how desperate conditions have to become for American service members, people trained to endure enormous physical and psychological stress, to reach that point.
The roughly 5,000 sailors and Marines aboard the Lincoln have reportedly endured food and water shortages, poor-quality rations, shortages of basic hygiene products, broken toilets, mold and mildew in showers, intermittent hot water, disrupted mail service and brutally long workdays with little meaningful time off.
The ship has spent extraordinary stretches at sea without the regular port calls that normally allow crews to get off the vessel, rest, resupply and simply experience something resembling normal life for a few days.
These men and women volunteered to serve the United States. They understood that military service could mean sacrifice, danger and months away from their families.
They did not volunteer to be treated as disposable.
If conditions aboard one of the most powerful and expensive warships on Earth have deteriorated to the point where sailors are reportedly trying to throw themselves into the ocean, then something has gone catastrophically wrong.
Our service members deserve better than this.
And somebody in leadership needs to answer for how it was ever allowed to get this bad.
CNN's Jake Tapper was a deranged bloodhound following the trail of Joe Biden experiencing *normal aging processes* in office but can't turn his Sherlockian skills to the comparatively simple question of whether Mitch McConnell is *still on Earth*. Is there no money in the latter?
Thomas Massie: "I vote with Republicans 91% of the time. And the 9% I don't, they're taking up for pedophiles, starting another war, or bankrupting our country."
An absolute mic drop. 🎤⬇️
Americans “gee that’s sweet, the grandma is getting a tax-free tip for delivering food”.
Europeans “why does that old lady have to work for her husband’s healthcare? What the fuck is wrong with that country!”…
@JeremyWingert79 The whole Iberian peninsula is often left out because there’s very few big cities in a large area. Tough to capitalize with all that travel. However, Portugal does host some awesome festivals where we get to see a mix of bands.
I am generally opposed to capital punishment but these private equity people who buy up emergency veterinarian clinics and jack the prices to extortionate levels need to be drawn and quartered on live TV
This is the saddest era in human history. We have everything one could want — electricity, running water, heat and air conditioning, homes, roads, schools, parks. Yet the ruling class and the bougiecrats are engaged in a humanicide because they always want MOAR for themselves.
it’s crazy that 95% of people just want a nice normal life on our beautiful, already abundant planet where they can have their basic needs met and cute experiences with their loved ones and then we have these 5% of evil, narcissistic goons at the top fucking it up for all of us
