@KGrahamContent https://t.co/6rEiHZUdhd The NBA seaspn just finished & that was a best of 7 games. Why even have a sport which has a final which can't be decieded in one singular match. In USA profits come first hence 7 games for a final & not the sport or the fans.
@MilanZak6@LandL0rd03 https://t.co/WIgWfOXtXR so 'many fans' are happy that your local government can't find tax dollars to help kids in schools but has no problem finding tax dollars for a sports team. Why does the US priortise sports teams over kids educatation?
@babytroublebabe@Framchise https://t.co/c4VHjeoPPf so instead of say improving infrastructure in your city,your local government chose to spend $11m of peoples taxes on a school sports stadium.
How USA is Collapsing in Real Time
While American bravado and propaganda are remarkable, the truth is that the US empire and the republic are imploding. Here is a long thread🧵on the profound systemic problems:
1. Crumbling Infrastructure & Decaying Towns
Bridges, dams, railways, highways, metro... much of it is decades old and crumbling.
And the decay has spread like cancer. Thousands of towns -- once flourishing, like Gary, Indiana -- across the US have turned into depressing ghost towns. No jobs, no people, no hospitals, no schools, and sometimes not even a grocery store -- this is the reality in many towns in middle America.
Below are two shocking videos:
This is honestly getting ridiculous.
Like, in the best of ways.
Legendary run for OBSESSION.
FIFTH WEEKEND is HIGHER THAN THE FIRST WEEKEND. This simply does not happen.
Will be a long while before it happens again!
@StevenM17671499@owenjonesjourno https://t.co/1GWEsTCiIj GB News= the news channel where they defend a child rapist who came to the UK to specifically rape said child.
GB News presenter Bev Turner and commentator Emma Wolf went to great lengths to defend a convicted child rapists participation in the Olympics
Wolf said “this must be a deeply uncomfortable experience for him”
What about how the family of the child that he raped?
Twelve year olds cannot consent. If this Olympian was gay and the child was male, their stance would perhaps be quite different
Wolf went on to describe the repeated rape of the child as a “very inappropriate holiday romance thing”
A sickening hill to choose to die on
@algarve32c@owenjonesjourno https://t.co/1GWEsTCiIj GB News seems to offer a valuable service defending child rapists who travelled to the UK to specifically rape a child. Take all the time you need to think about this.

@RealGamerPanda@AdamBeneve@benno_nagel https://t.co/pDNBbjxBmF I'm not 'mad' I'm just pointing out the US lecturing others about breaking international law whilst the US is itself breaking international law is hypocrotical.
Iran's Foreign Ministry issued a statement on Thursday condemning overnight U.S. attacks as a "flagrant violation" of international law that "effectively rendered the April 8 ceasefire meaningless."

@RealGamerPanda@AdamBeneve@benno_nagel https://t.co/pDNBbjxBmF don't think the US is in any position to lecture others about breaking international law.

@mralpacalips@elmayimbe https://t.co/iq7WzcKewD his name(as a brand) means nothing the majority of Blumhouse movies over the past year flopped all with name(as a brand) attatched to them. People went to watch obsession due to positive word of mouth,not Blum's marketing.
Jason Blum comments on ‘M3GAN 2.0’s box office flop.
“We all thought Megan was like Superman. We could do anything to her. We could change genres. We could put her in the summer. We could make her look different. We could turn her from a bad guy into a good guy.”

Infantino claims he can't do anything about Referees, players, journalists and fans being banned from the World Cup because in every country there are Governments.
In 2023 Indonesia refused to let the Israeli U23 squad have visas
FIFA instantly moved the tournament to Argentina
Haven't seen this World Cup visa denial story circulating yet. Moroccan player Zakaria El Ouahdi, who plays in Belgium's top division, was initially denied a US visa on the basis that his father has what authorities deemed a suspicious beard
@itsAdam66@TheWalrus83@BocaDuk3@jenbegakis https://t.co/bwBNlG0vqC Welcome to the 'Christian' nation USA where people are happy they get cheap food because the staff who serve them are essentially on slave labour at $2.13 per hour. The US isn't any different to China who they constantly lecture about how they treat people
@itsAdam66@TheWalrus83@BocaDuk3@jenbegakis https://t.co/bwBNlG0vqC you've gave me an answer to a question I never asked. Try just using a little bit of brainpower to answer the question I actually asked you. Again take as long as you need to answer the question & reread what I actually asked.
@TheWalrus83@BocaDuk3@jenbegakis https://t.co/XTRxCvnMME you stated here its forbidden by law to pay staff under the minimum wage,so why hasn't the US government stepped in to prevent the business paying the staff next to nothing?. Instead the government is letting them break the law & the regular folk suffer.
@JamieRdeakin@BocaDuk3@jenbegakis It is forbidden by law to do pay anyone below minimum wage, and only 1% of workers make minimum wage. Primarily young high school kids. You live in a delusion.
@itsAdam66@TheWalrus83@BocaDuk3@jenbegakis https://t.co/bwBNlG0vqC So I'll ask again if the employer can afford to sell food at a cheap rate which will in turn create more revenue as there'll be more people eating there due to word of mouth,why pay staff $2.13 per hour?. Take as long as you need to think about it.
@itsAdam66@TheWalrus83@BocaDuk3@jenbegakis https://t.co/bwBNlG0vqC so you're bragging about getting cheaper food because business owners aren't paying their staff a proper wage & YOU have to make up the rest of their wages?. You do understand that if your're constantly paying 20%+ tips your food isn't working out cheaper.
