Western Democracy is when you give your little brother the unplugged console controller so he stops asking you for a turn. And he sits there like an idiot pressing the buttons thinking he's in control.

Sometimes he starts to get suspicious, so you tell him he needs to press the buttons harder. Then you look over at which buttons he's straining himself on and follow along for a bit until he thinks he's making a difference again (but never in a part of the game that actually matters of course).

The difference is, with Western Democracy you've got a chorus of commentators sitting behind your brother telling him he's in control, applauding or criticising accordingly, telling him he's being silly when he gets suspicious, and moving hell and high water to keep him distracted when he starts following the controller cable to see where it really leads.

The woman who sued to have this struck down took a PPP loan worth $48,000 from the government. She then had all but $4 forgiven, after which she proceeded to sue against student loan forgiveness which would of forgiven 20k of federal loans, and 10k of private loans.

Ghouls

But y'know, 'blue no matter who' and all that goatshit

This is bad of course but must remember that this debt forgiveness was a dumb half assed plan from the start. Systematic change is the only thing that will help the working class.

This was the intended result all along. Grandstanding to the fullest.

Supreme court is fascist

Woo-hoo! I get to keep the 5k cloud of debt I got for dropping out freshman year hanging over my head! Another victory for the free world!

So their "supreme court" has the highest power in yankeeland... but the people inside there, how do they get in? I've never heard about a "supreme court election". Do they just plant their children in there, monarchy style?

I changed banks during the pandemic. Maybe I'll just "forget" to put my bank account information back in, and see how long I can get away with "forgetting about" a $19K balance.

This is my shocked face dot gif

The optimist in me really thought this was going to go through at first. Damn.

the supreme court are a bunch of motherfuckers and i am not surprised

This sucks, man.

Joke's on you, at my employment/wage rate I'm never paying off these loans.

I fucking hate seeing this shit being called as Biden student loan relief plan. Even though this plan as senile as him.

Lol this is why I didn’t go to college. Kinda sad but I was right

Did he have a plan?

the supreme court at it again
