There’s a lot of them on the genz subreddit.

[-] CarmineCatboy2@hexbear.net 17 points 9 months ago

the average age of any subreddit called teenagers or genz is probably 47

"Why don't my fellow youths want to get out the vote for Biden? He's got rizz"

"Historically low unemployment despite pandemic."

Quick someone tell me what happens when you remove millions of people from a system through death and disability, are there more people looking for jobs or less, someone help me I don't know how numbers work.

  • deliberately watered down
  • racist and solely to protect hegemony
  • literally supporting Nazis
  • business owners got ppp loans forgiven, child tax credit ended, he still owes me $2000
  • refusing to codify Roe when he had the chance
  • token drop in the bucket and extremely limited in scope
  • worker discipline program
  • and yet the gains of the last several years have gone straight to the top
  • token in a way that becomes racist itself
[-] Hestia@hexbear.net 44 points 9 months ago

He only owes you $2000? He owes me $12000! Don't forget the student loan forgiveness plan that got scrapped.

Almost none of this affects the average person.

The Chips act is literally just the government attempting to give a middle finger to China and failing.

Literally sending billions of dollars to a lost cause from the start instead of spending it domestically on the people he actually is the fucking leader of.

He under delivered with COVID relief giving significantly less than his campaign promise and cut relief programs waaaay before they should've.

ROE V WADE WAS REPEALED ON HIS FUCKING WATCH

The lowered drug costs are literally only for people on Medicaid unless there's something I'm not aware of.

Inflation stemmed by twisting a dagger into the common person.

Historically low unemployment because of the pandemic. When you remove that many people from the working population through a disease that kills so many, well, of fucking course you're going to have low unemployment.

I don't know who this person is. I'm not sure if I should care cause it's a judge appointment I assume.

Gods I hate this man so much. Gods I fucking hate this country and its government.

Also the pandemic spurred a mass retirement of older workers that decided they could make do with what they have in their savings instead of exposing themselves to a potentially deadly disease like that.

Biden literally dismantled the entire COVID infrastructure and just left millions of people to die and starve. He was exponentially worse than Trump on COVID.

[-] goferking0 45 points 9 months ago

Wait covid relief did he do again?

And how'd he protect women's reproduction rights?

[-] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 24 points 9 months ago

CW suicideIt's still legal to kill yourself if you get pregnant.

[-] Hestia@hexbear.net 18 points 9 months ago

Um, source?

Pretty sure that is illegal. You typically just don't face... Legal consequences

[-] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 11 points 9 months ago

That's what I meant, yeah, we aren't jailing all pregnant women and forcing them to stay alive for 9 months... yet.

-Mostly corporate handouts and riders

-What companies has this even stimulated?

-Cool, guns for skinheads

-Biden literally told jurisdictions to use COVID funds to hire cops in response to a .1% increase in crime

-He has done literally nothing besides making sure military members can get abortions iirc (thanks MIC Joe!)

-Not lowering them nearly as much as he could

-Inflation reduction is limiting the GROWTH of it, not reversing it dipshits, and it got reversed thru austerity

-Historically insane growth of top 1% wealth

-Yay black woman on supreme court I'm sure she's been significant in carrying Biden's judicial agenda

[-] TheOtherwise@hexbear.net 28 points 9 months ago

-Biden literally told jurisdictions to use COVID funds to hire cops in response to a .1% increase in crime

Seriously?

[-] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 20 points 9 months ago

Yup, he did that almost immediately on taking office

[-] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 19 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Yes, in 2022 he encouraged states to burn COVID aid on cop hirings

Also in 2022: violent crime went down, and it had also gone down the previous year

Didn't stop every fucking media site from screaming about property crime and other bullshit going up (which it did), you'll notice in both of the above articles

[-] Amaltheamannen@lemmy.ml 30 points 9 months ago

More comments than upvotes lol

[-] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 17 points 9 months ago

We love a good ratio, don't we folks?

[-] Hestia@hexbear.net 28 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Funny how this is how they choose to depict a person who still plans to vote for Biden

[-] ProletarianDictator@hexbear.net 18 points 9 months ago

you will eat your slop and you will like it

[-] POKEMONGOTOTHEGULAG@hexbear.net 28 points 9 months ago

I'm sure this represents genz and definitely isn't a circlejerk that hit /r/all and got catapulted by disgusting millenials

[-] CyborgMarx@hexbear.net 27 points 9 months ago

Of course it's r/GenZ, the sub filled with creepy 45-year-olds

protecting reporductive rights depsite Roe vs Wade repaeal

lmao what an absolute parody

[-] bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 9 months ago

The only good genz subreddit was purged, the remnants of genz are the pure scum. Kinda like how they say that the last good french people were killed after the paris commune.

[-] Angel@hexbear.net 26 points 9 months ago

This is proof that I was born in the wrong generation

[-] Omegamint@hexbear.net 26 points 9 months ago

Infrastructure bill: not nearly enough to make an impact, even if something is better than nothing.

Chips act: literally a joke

Ukraine: yeah how’s that worked out?

Covid relief: uh.. what? I had more when trump was president

Abortion rights: words and not action

Lowering drug costs: little to no differences

Inflation reduction: by trying to increase unemployment and otherwise kneecap labor power

Historically low unemployment: only when you fudge the numbers, and meaningless in the light of housing costs and the overall massively increased cost of living for the lower class

Is the confirmation a Supreme Court? I’ve not been paying attention. Anything other than playing hardball and stacking the court is worthless. Also I don’t attribute this to him (and much of what they want to attribute to Biden is not really a direct result of his use of presidential power)

[-] Skeleton_Erisma@hexbear.net 20 points 9 months ago

WHAT FUCKING COVID RELIEF?

HONESTLY WHAT COVID RELIEF??

HISTORICALLY LOW UNEMPLOYMENT???? WHAT???

LISTEN JACK? CORN POP?? HELLO?????

[-] SkibidiToiletFanAcct@hexbear.net 14 points 9 months ago

there is nothing to take seriously on reddit. What confirmed it of all things for me was the "how many boxes are on the trolley?" question. Anyone who understands the premise to where they think 51 is a possible answer, should on that basis already grasp why there could be fewer boxes, but seeing thousands of upvotes on comments about what's "natural" what the questions "expects", "in the real world...", "we don't consider antigravity or holograms or hollow boxes either?!?"...

If this is the floor of reddit dialogue, how can you expect them to contribute anything on more serious topics? I used to read r/tankiejerk a lot, because I like challenging ideas, but my frustration was every time I went there, Legitimately there are no ideas there. if you want to find a left wing critique of Marxism, it doesn't exist on reddit.

[-] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 13 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Remember how the 2020 election was the most important election of our lifetimes?

I'm starting to think it was the least important one.

[-] VictimOfAmerikkka@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 9 months ago
[-] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 6 points 9 months ago

I was thinking about that.

But when you consider how shitty Biden has been, and how Trump could be approaching his term limit now with only 1 more SC appointment, and also have the Afghanistan debacle on his hands, it's hard to not womder whether the 2020 election really made a difference.

[-] Great_Leader_Is_Dead@hexbear.net 11 points 9 months ago

r/GenZ is 90% elder millennials LARPing as Zoomers

[-] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 9 points 9 months ago

I can’t find the Reddit thread, looks like it was removed?

[-] Edamamebean@hexbear.net 7 points 9 months ago

Absolutely insane how they try to spin the overturning of roe v wade as a positive

[-] axont@hexbear.net 6 points 9 months ago

You know people are scraping when they include a supreme court appointment as a president's accomplishments. They picked a person and hired them in an elaborate ceremony, what a feat.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
