@t3mporarybl1p@NotHoodlum There are definitely not as many right wing people that support a transition to EVs as left wing. Climate change denialists won’t be Tesla’s savior.
@Kes81027 Pretty sure if you were to rig an election in Australia, you would settle for a marginal win to avoid any scrutiny. What evidence to you have that any politicians elected in WA were not the best candidates in their electorate? Name one example.
@anniekistne@Sauronlordking Actually they didn’t pay tax on a lot of it is my point. The government gave them tax exemptions so they would have money to spend in their old age and not leech from the economy. Burying their money, claiming more benefits and leaving a gold mine behind is bleeding us all dry.
@anniekistne@Sauronlordking So you should return all the tax breaks and just keep the bits you actually worked hard for. Or, you could spend the money as intended. Or quit complaining about policies that recoup a portion of the gifts everyone now realises were too generous to sustain a balanced economy.
@Tanez67@Sauronlordking Good plan. Help your son get a home after you are dead. We are not Egyptians pharaohs, we don’t need our gold in the afterlife. If you made use of the government incentives to build wealth then you can live with government incentives that encourage spending.
@REddieHood24@iLoveJaneAdams@MelissaLMRogers Canadians are beautiful people, why would they want to join a bunch of cunts? This platform has descended into a pile of the worst human beings on the planet. Selfish bullies joyfully trying to extort wealth from the most vulnerable. Rot in hell you godless arseholes.
@dogluvr3333@krassenstein @schendel_ashley Big countries always have the means of extorting smaller countries. We rely on them not being cunts. The Americans on this platform are suddenly the most deplorable humans I’ve interacted with. Picking fights with everyone because you are bigger. A bunch of bullies and cunts.
@gniknayrb@yarotrof You Americans just sound like bigger arseholes every day. I mean, the world already thought you guys were a bit ignorant but you are an absolute bunch of cunts. I get why you voted in Trump now.
@realRick_AUS @AussieMatt34 All this justifying of Putin’s behavior is appalling. He kills his political opponents, remains in power for 25 years despite laws designed to prevent it and creates unrest leading to invasions with little or no consequence. Somehow this is NATO’s fault. Get a grip.
@TraderNDC@Leftyloon84@ianedwards99@secretsqrl123 Are you talking about Russia or Europe? Because it is illegal to imprison someone based on political beliefs in Europe but not in Russia. Who are you outraged for? I honestly don’t get it.
@TraderNDC@Leftyloon84@ianedwards99@secretsqrl123 Their kids tend not to get shot at school. You don’t have the world figured out, you just have a superiority complex. For every ally you lose, some power and trade goes with it. You are getting weaker and poorer as we speak and most of the world hates you.
@TraderNDC@DarkAnonymousUK@ianedwards99@secretsqrl123 So strengthen Ukraine’s position and negotiate with Putin. Empowering Putin and negotiating with Zelensky is extortion. Only arseholes could take pride in this stance.
@TraderNDC@DarkAnonymousUK@ianedwards99@secretsqrl123 No one disputes US power. But if you use it to threaten and extort less powerful nations (and it would appear US citizens are becoming very comfortable with that idea) there will be no world peace. Global stability relies on the US not being a bunch of selfish arseholes.
@laralogan So what you are saying is if NATO and the US had been less active in Europe and weakened their position, Putin would not have invaded Ukraine. That is one mighty assumption given Putin’s history of dealing with political opponents.
