Judging people by appearance is often misleading. Real ability doesn’t always come with visible status or luxury, sometimes the most capable people are the least loud about it.
This is the real reason crime is down in Los Angeles
Samantha lives in LA and has had to call 911 for the police four times
Call 1: A homeless person was trying to break into her apartment building. She was outside of her building while it was happening. She called 911, “I was placed on hold for about 10 minutes, and then they told me that since the person was homeless, they would not be sending the cops out, that they would try to get like homeless intervention people out, and it would take no less than an hour”
This was no help
Call 2: This one's really messed up. She watched a 80 year old man “get the sh*t beat out of him” by like a 20 year old. “Like bad, repeatedly, and this kid had his phone out the whole time, was recording it, like beat the shit out of this old, old, old man in the middle of the street, in the middle of Sunset Boulevard. This old man is like lying there bleeding everywhere, and I called the police and nobody came.”
Call 3: Her car was being broken into and someone was attention to steal it. “I waited on hold for 40 minutes before someone picked up and said, "Oh, you have to do that online." She was told how to categorize the incident. They told her wrong and it her police report was rejected. She called back and they said “There’s nothing they can do” and “nothing will be done”
Call 4: “A tweaker was loitering and tweaking outside my apartment for hours and eventually trying to break into it” After he was in the process of trying to break in she called 911 and after 3 hours nobody showed but but they called back to check on her. The man was gone, the cops didn’t help
Crime rates aren’t down in Los Angeles. Residents are just no longer reporting them because this is the response
We see this over and over again
This is wild
If you examine the generic Tylenol pills at CVS, Aldi and Costco you’ll notice the prices are very different
- CVS is $6 for 24 tablets
- Aldi is $1.69 for 100 tablets
- Costco is $8 for 1,000 tablets
If you examine the pills, they are all stamped with ‘L484’ this means they all produced by the same manufacturers or contracted suppliers that simply rebrand and package for different retailers
They’re all the exact same medication
I’ll break down the per pill cost for everyone
- CVS: $0.25 per pill
- Aldi: $0.017 per pill
- Kirkland (Costco): $0.008 per pill
Remember, these are all the exact same pills
This is a classic example of private labeling in retail. The same factory produces the pills, and stores add their markup based on brand perception, convenience, packaging, and profit margins
CVS charges a premium for the “pharmacy trust” factor
You know what I call it? A scam
@bavedikian@BestBuy@FedEx I came to the United States from a socialist country, and believe me, the arrogance of major American corporations rivals that of third-rate nations.
Black woman is urging black people to call Chinese restaurants, place takeout orders, and not pick them up as a form of protest and boycott following the acquittal of an Asian store owner in the shooting of a black teenager in SC.
I am currently in Texas and cannot get over how clean and organized this area is. I am in Frisco and it’s just lovely. I live in California and have for the past 30 years crime is everywhere homeless everywhere needles and trash everywhere mentally ill and drug zombies everywhere. I haven’t seen anything like that here in Texas at least not in Frisco.
After White people, the second group of people most targeted & killed by Black people are East Asians.
I think it is due to envy as East Asian’s have a high IQ which makes them more successful.
Seems the two highest IQ groups are their biggest targets.

On nous accuse presque d’être des privilégiés parce qu’on touche notre retraite. Mais qu’est-ce qu’on a vraiment volé à qui que ce soit ?
On a connu les semaines à 45, 48, parfois 50 heures. On faisait des heures supplémentaires sans même les compter, parce qu’il fallait nourrir la famille. On se levait à 5h, on rentrait parfois cassé, le dos en miettes, les mains abîmées. On ne pleurait pas, on ne faisait pas de burn-out : on tenait bon.
On a élevé nos enfants sans crèche, sans allocations familiales mirobolantes, sans aide de l’État. Juste avec notre salaire et notre courage. Et on en est fiers.
Aujourd’hui, on nous regarde de travers en disant que « les jeunes paient pour nos retraites ». Mais ce n’est pas nous le problème. C’est un système qui a été détourné, mal géré, et qui accueille de plus en plus d’assistés au lieu de récompenser ceux qui travaillent.
Nous, on a construit ce pays. Les routes, les usines, les écoles, les logements. On a bossé dur, souvent dans des conditions que beaucoup ne supporteraient plus aujourd’hui.
Alors oui, notre retraite, on l’a bien méritée. Pas par privilège. Par usure. Par sacrifice. Par devoir accompli.
Un peu de respect pour ceux qui ont donné leur santé et leur jeunesse pour que les générations suivantes aient une vie plus douce. ❤️👴👵»
I’m asking just a genuine question .. what have black peoples done to Chinese people that they despise black so badly? I mean we know the history behind white and black people but Chinese… why ?
🇮🇳🇺🇸 Tata Consultancy CEO Krithi Krithivasan brought in 6,500 L-1A “managers” to America from India.
Bloomberg says: many weren’t managers at all, just cheaper labor with fake titles used to bypass H-1B rules and fees.

Our seniors are struggling in America, there is an affordability crisis in America
This is Miss Ruby and she’s still forced to work as this age and physical state
But she’s not the only one, there is a horrifying growing trend for seniors in America
- A record 12.5 million senior households, more than 1 in 3 seniors, are “house poor,” spending over 30% of their income on housing
- 45% of Senior Households Can’t Cover Basics
- 80% Are Financially Vulnerable
- Nearly 12 million Americans aged 65+ are still working, the highest rate in decades
- Nearly 14 million seniors face food insecurity
- 58% of older renters are cost-burdened, spending over 30% of income on rent
Here’s the worst part. Low-income seniors die an average of 9 years earlier than high-income seniors
This can’t continue in America. We are going in the wrong direction
This woman OWNS 37 acres of land.
Not leased. Not borrowed. OWNED.
And the government still told her she can’t put a tiny home on it.
“I said, I OWN the land. It's massive. What's the problem?”
Ownership means NOTHING when permission is required for everything.
