A decade ago, I could agree with people on some things while disagreeing with them on others and still like them for their merits. I feel like we are all diminished by this all or nothing ideological approach so much of the world has taken. We are making ourselves lesser.
@TheAKGuy "Just look at Her Herrera! The flowing mane of dark hair! The deep tan! The blatant love of Soviet firearms! He is practically the Aryan ideal! Obvious Nazi."
"Pay no attention to sweaty dirty blonde man with Nazi tattoos. He is obviously God fearing All American!"

@9f42tuuz You could have green hair and insist you are called Tatsumaki, and I doubt many people would complain.
You're lovely, do what makes you happy.
How much propaganda had to be forced down our throats to make women believe a mediocre salary and PowerPoints were better than this?
I always think of this quote on memorial weekend.
Every time 😂
@renna0771 To quote a line from a movie, "... our vast height difference intrigues me."
But, I find it hard to believe you don't have friends or a boyfriend. Too cute, and cuteness always reels people in. 🤨
@kanadayo_aua The thought process goes... .oO(Wifey material spotted... Heart can only take so much cuteness!)

“It’s just a ceremonial knife.”
So, it doesn’t have an edge or?
“No, it’s a real knife.”
Ohh what’s the ceremony?
“To kill our enemies.”
Isn’t that just a weapon?
This is the kind of bold, daring, transformative casting we've been begging Hollywood for. Chris Pratt as Rosa Parks. Finally.
🚨WOW!!!
Tim Sparks has confirmed he purchased 80 PIZZA HUTS and brought back EVERYTHING that made them iconic!

The Mayor of Charlotte is demanding people stop posting this reminder of the lovely innocent Iryna Zarutska butchered by a savage on Charlotte public transit. He was on probation by a liberal activist judge.

@hoshizorarock You only need three toppings for the perfect hotdog. Mustard, Diced Onion, and Chili. The Holy Trinity of the Hotdog. - Cheese is a sin here.

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more.
Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged.
Here's what happened:
Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it."
And the exact emails are now PUBLIC.
Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem.
The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately."
Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call.
Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price.
Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed.
Same playbook with Hanes:
Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased."
Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins.
But it gets even worse...
Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site.
Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing.
They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS.
The mechanism is simple but terrifying:
If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers.
Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings."
Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products.
Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform.
So turns out, you were never comparison shopping.
You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors.
"Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable."
3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on.
This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat.
And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE.
"Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.
The red pill isn’t new.
It’s 2,400 years old.
Plato wrote about it in The Republic.
A group of people sit chained in a cave, watching shadows on a wall.
That’s all they’ve ever seen, so they call it reality.
One person breaks free.
He sees the world as it actually is.
Not shadows. Not distortions. The real thing.
So he goes back to tell the others.
And they reject him.
Not because he’s wrong.
Because truth asks something of you, and comfort asks nothing.
That’s the real divide.
Not right vs. left.
Not smart vs. dumb.
Truth vs. comfort.
That’s the red pill.
The shadows are easy.
Truth is a choice.
Elizabeth Warren caught on camera getting off a luxury private jet!
Notice how she is trying to hide behind her assistant…
While living in extreme luxury, she is attempting to block a 401(k) expansion plan designed to help young families build wealth! Do you understand now?
@MikuMiku_hmhm If being hot is a problem then I am not sure how you get anything done. You appear to make every task hot. 🤔
