I'm pretty sure people sentenced to death get to choose their execution method, so this guy chose firing squad?

As good as admitting that the US is no longer a superpower. You can't be isolationist and a superpower at the same time.

Feeding the ego of those on top by ANY means necessary.

"Work will set you free"

Exactly. You have to have a very comfortable life if the idea of having a kid doesn't scare the shit out of you... that or you're the type of person that doesn't give a shit about your kids.

Pretending? I'm not gonna say vaping is healthy, but it definitely isn't as bad for you as cigarettes. I made the switch years ago just because I wanted to see if I could stop smoking cigarettes, and within the first week or two my lungs felt noticeably better. I've been gradually lowering the nicotine level in the juices I use and will hopefully ween myself off vaping too.

Maybe don't rely on rt for news.. zelensky's popularity shot up after Trump and Vance's oval office disgrace. Trump then sent people to try to convince zelensky's opposition to push for elections, and even the opposition told them to fuck off.

My favorite joke after communion was asking for a toothpick because "I've got some Jesus stuck in my teeth".

I'm not saying that the stock market will end. I'm saying that we will never be in as good of a position ever again. The post ww2 world order is being rewriten right now. We were at the top because we were more or less trustworthy and had significant influence throughout the world. We didn't have much competition. Now that no one trusts us and our influence is being dismantled our trading partners will seek out our competitors or start their own industry creating even more competition. I hope I'm wrong, but i just don't see how we will ever be trusted again.

Why would you think stocks will go back up? The tariffs have proven that we are an unreliable trading partner, and countries are starting to look elsewhere. In addition, the outrage from abandoning our allies has caused a large part of the world to boycott our companies. I don't see how things could possibly go back to what they were.

It's all because of propaganda. They live in an entirely different world that is not reality. I'm surrounded by conservative voters where I live and most of them say "I haven't heard about that" whenever I mention a new outrage that's in the news that I see. I think it's their way of saying "I don't believe you".

When I talked to a couple of them about the zelensky oval office fiasco one response was "well I heard that zelensky called Vance a bitch in the meeting". I pointed out that he was lied to and that the whole thing was recorded and that never happened, but I would bet money that they still believe that lie over me. Another response was the Russian propaganda that zelensky is a dictator. There is no reasoning with them. They don't care about what reality is. They only believe in what makes them feel good and feeds their pride and ego. I've tried having rational discussions, but it always ends with them saying "I can't articulate why you're wrong, but I disagree with you". If you can't articulate something maybe that means you don't understand it enough and should reevaluate your conclusions, but they won't because it would hurt their pride. God damnit I'm am so far beyond frustrated with them.

Just change they name of it so that they would have to be specific about the policies they demand be ended instead of just saying "D.E.I. bad".
