Not voting has the same consequences, so those aren't too smart either.
Gen Z are entitled like boomers, but with almost no economic prospects outside their parents.
Which makes sense, since loads of Gen Z were priced out of a future before they could even start earning, so there's no point in giving effort
At least Trump will guarantee Gen Z nearly unlimited well paying work if they're interested in bounty hunting immigrants and tracking fertility
What better way to oppress women than by making it illegal to not have your child with you.
Women better get ready to be accosted by police asking where their child is - and if you don't have one you'll be entered into the police lottery where everyone at the station gets a chance bestow a child upon you before you can leave.
Damn, strong policy that will actually help regular people acquire a fundamental human need without taking them for absolutely everything they are worth?
Can't believe she hasn't been assassinated yet.
Resigned to run for the highest office in the country you mean?
"as it would require congressional action to accomplish legally"
I'm absolutely certain the most crime ridden, corrupt, untouchable person in history who is exclusively fueled by revenge and powerlust would be successfully confined by the law after the supreme court explicitly stated that doesn't matter for presidents.
Yup, he sure learned his lesson that rules and laws absolutely apply to him and there's no point in trying to outrun justice if you're wealthy and connected.
Honestly, blame the media for this one.
They talked about project 2025 for maybe 10 days and spent the rest of the time ignoring the absolute fact that concrete steps are being taken across the board to end democracy and impose a Christian theocracy as fast as possible.
There was no concentrated effort to warn Americans of the very real threat Trump is, and what absolutely will happen if he won the election.
All the public saw was a witch hunt against Trump that went nowhere as he promised to be a dictator and change the fundamental structure of the United stated to further billionaire interests, and the actual reality of this was never explicitly stated.
News media is responsible for educating the population, with standards on the quality and accuracy of the information, but neither side will ever do any such thing.
Both political parties and every news medium are completely corporately owned and will never platform something that threatens their control.
I wonder if this is why fox news et all were flagrantly lying about roving immigrant gangs occupying towns (that never existed)
That happens in a lot of immigrants home countries, so immigrants voting to stop it from coming to America makes sense - its why they uprooted their lives and migrated to America in the first place.
I'm just as disappointed as anyone else in the outcome/demographic split etc - but it's almost hard to blame people when every "legitimate" news source can pitch a coordinated fantasy and make it real.
You're supposed to be able to trust news sources - but when multiple news sources coordinate to make up stories and narratives that aren't true, and there's zero consequences for lying or promoting disinformation, people will never be able to make an informed opinion again.
Just like the lack of consequences for Trump let people believe he's the target of a witch hunt. People want to believe the accountability applied to them is also applied to major institutions like news, police, and government, but can't seem to understand it only exists for the poor.
"Canadian" mining companies - any country on earth can have a licensed business in Canada for the change you find in your couch. Seems to be especially popular for mining companies.
This one actually used to be a full on Canadian mining company (INCO) before it got bought out by a Brazilian company called Vale limited.
There's plenty of tax havens already, so Canada went all in on shell corporations for money laundering (especially real estate) and using Canadas positive global image to hide the true owners of a business.
But doesn't Trump hate China?
Obviously he's extremely succeptable to bribery/flattery etc so he could easily "art of the deal" Taiwan off to China.
Personally I feel like he's definitely having a vindictive king renaissance so I'm expecting a lot of inflexible decisions made entirely on impulse - because that's exactly what the people want.
Don't know if I see him going to war with China as getting bribed is better than fighting and potentially losing. Plus, fighting implies you don't have enough power/influence to win without fighting and Trump is all about projecting power.
If he does want war, I wouldn't be surprised to see an American foreign legion formed out of the 20 million immigrants he wants to deport
Hate to break it to ya, but believing things that are easily, verifiably, false because you prefer the narrative is very "IN" right now.
We left confirmation bias in the rear view mirror and are now actively embracing reality speculation where anything can be true/false if more than one person/bot agrees with it.
Women are easy, natural, targets for Conservatives.
Beyond that? Disability, Left handedness, a grandfather who did yoga once, someone wasn't enthusiastic enough during the 2 minutes hate, they'll never run out of outsiders to invent and demonize!
This isn't aimed at the idiots who would line up around the block and work for free to be called high IQ by Musk. Doesn't really matter though, it's all performative
They already know exactly what they want to cut, and billionaires don't need a salary to realize profits from deregulation.
The job being "no salary" isn't indicative of how cost effictive a volunteer public servant could be - it is a dinner bell for the wealthy
