Since we're assuming things, is this like incel humor?

We really are kinda fuckin dumb in the US. It's like we're equally deeply suspicious of our government but too dumb to understand how it works so we ends up with blind, ignorant cynicism

In short, the employment gains haven’t been broad-based. Instead, the overall numbers are reflective of a “rolling recession,” where sectors experience downturns and recoveries at different times.

“This is an unusual state of affairs where the aggregate numbers look pretty strong, but they’re really being boosted by the unusually strong government and health care numbers, which are masking the unusual weakness elsewhere,” Pollak said.

“I think it’s the major reason why the aggregate figures look so strong and yet people feel so bad,” she added. “Most people in this country are not working in health care or a police department and can’t easily switch into those kinds of jobs. … These averages can look quite rosy but mask the very real challenges and struggles of business owners and job seekers.”

Thought that was interesting. Hadn't heard that concept mentioned ever before. Seems super important to the conversation. It's like talking about polls without making a distinction for popular vote vs swing state votes.

Dude, Biden tried to forgive like $140 billion in student loans and invested like a trillion dollars into infrastructure and energy programs with the IRA

You're not entirely wrong that the DNC is heavily influenced by wealthy corporations/donors, but c'mon man. Get a grip! You sound ridiculous with that both sides nonsense

Yeah, but imagine if they retaliate and assassinate Biden? Wouldn't that be... interesting.

I'm considering what the impact would be on the election if it were Harris running, for example

I honestly care about high income inequality and campaign finance reform. Can we talk about those instead of what you care about?

No, this is actually a really effective way of communicating with other people and convincing them what I have to say is worth listening to. This absolutely does not alienate people or make me come off as an insensitive bot that doesn't know hot treat people like humans before I unload my personal interests on them

Free Palestine, btw! 🍉

The IRA and the CHIPS Act were pretty legit - granted, I think trump might've passed some version of the CHIPS act as well. Seems like a no-brainer, imo, but the one that did it gets the credit!

I'll never forget how Americans turned on Portland protesters.

Hmm.. well that makes actually a lot of sense. Thanks!

Can't you just hide the paid movies/tv tab? Or is it a principle thing

Is jellyfin better? I'd never heard of it 'til now

Is a verse switch a thing? Do people like them? Asking for a friend

Idk about it being the "game" that matters at all. They'd likely view the concept of a female doctor with similar contempt.

If anything it's that these dudes view the game as more than just a game - they consider it their safe space that's being violated.
