Why do you always trivialize the violence of 2020

#101 | Posted by BellRinger

Why do you exaggerate it? The number of trumpers who cried "the cities are burning!". They all seem totally intact to me. If the problem was that big you wouldnt need to dramatize it.

This country has had many riots.

We've only had one coup attempt. We've only had one political party too corrupt and treasonous to let a an insurrectionist get away with an attempted coup, ending the rule of law, and turning us into a banana republic.

teachers, machinists, farmers, etc...all donate money to politicians for their own interests (help you get richer).

A teacher doesn't have the money to influence a corrupt president.
A tech CEO does.

It takes an entire UNION of workers to counterbalance the influence of one uber rich CEO. And even then they usually fail.

This is the system you're defending?

If I were, you wouldn't be congratulating me.

and in your eyes, anybody who makes any more than you might as well be in the .001% because you can't make the distinction.

#68 | Posted by eberly

The distinction is quite simple - if you have enough money where you can bribe politicians to write economic rules that help you get richer while everyone else struggles more, then you should be taxed more.

Disagree?

The problem with this "DATA" is that it only goes from 2021 to 2024

You can look up yourself how much an american had to earn to afford a single family home, a car, insurance, and education for their kids. Compare 40 years ago to today. Adjust for inflation.

Meanwhile the rich have gotten richer and richer and moron republicans keep voting to make it worse.

But why Snoofy a broke dick loser?

Because Eberly doesn't pay enough in taxes.

Congrats on being in the .001%

Didn't realize you were in the class that has gotten so rich through the destruction of the social compact.

#43. No I keep the comparisons to here they are applicable. The reasons for the Smith and Harrigan dismissals are the same. Hence, the applicable comparison.

#44 | Posted by BellRinger

Now compare the reasons they were hired.

Be afraid, very afraid...

These aren't the droids youre looking for. Covid was never a real thing. Therefore trump never screwed up a crisis and got hundreds of thousands of citizens killed.

Look at all those vaccinated cowards in california with their low covid rates.

In a fascist cult you're a SICK WACKO if you don't go along with the dicator's dementia.

While were talking about handouts to billionaires, anyone remember the voting record of the House and Senate on the '08 bank bailout?

#59 | Posted by lfthndthrds

Why do you need to change the subject?

Can't answer the question?- If getting sick is one of the major causes of debt, what is going to be the result of republicans funding tax cuts for billionaires by making healthcare more expensive?

That's where the comparison lies.

#42 | Posted by BellRinger

You'd prefer to ignore the comparison where democrats hire competent professionals and trump hires corrupt morons or inexperienced hot girls.

Apparently so, especially when it comes to debt.

People are poor for two reason mostly.

1) Bad decisions
2) illness (mental or physical)

#28 | Posted by lfthndthrds

So what is going to be the result of republicans funding tax cuts for billionaires by making healthcare more expensive?

And I love how Liberals keep saying the DOJ's cases are only retribution for how the Biden DOJ treated Trump. Retribution for what? For using Lawfare to keep Trump off the ballot.

What should the FBI do when a president steals classified documents, hides them, refuses to return them, and gets other people to lie to investigators and cover up that they were stolen?

I have seen the stats in the last few years and it isn't good for average Americans.

#15 | Posted by lfthndthrds

Have you seen the stats in since trump took over? It's even less good.

Gen Z is richer than just a few years ago"and much richer than their parents at the same age"but everything costs more and they have more debt, Pew study

Perhaps you've bought into another lie DonoBot kicks around.

The biggest issues for younger generations is housing. This is where the Boomers locked out the other generations.

#117 | Posted by oneironaut

"RICHER" is a subjective term.

The Democratic Party routinely gains new younger voters and loses voters to the GOP at the same time.

#114 | Posted by eberly

People became more conservative when they bought a home and had something to lose through "shaking up the system".

Only now young people can't afford homes. So they'll go from progressive to BURN IT ALL DOWN.

The newest voters are all Progressive.

They dispise the oligarchy.

The GOP is rightly doomed.

#110 | Posted by redlightrobot

The podcast/crypto bros are not progressive. They are brainwashed by russian propaganda and vote for trump.

And fascists don't allow legitimate elections that would boot them from power.

maga base don't have money to bribe trump like big tech does.

all they had was their votes. and now their votes aren't needed. trump can rape them however he wants.

when you're a star they let you do it.

I love that boaz posted this as if a bunch of fascist cult members condemning socialism actually says anything bad about socialism.

Individuals decisions and individuals' debt problem to deal with.

#2 | Posted by MSgt

So people suddenly started making worse decisions under trump?

I haven't been in debt in over a decade. In fact, to get me to take on some debt the interest would need to be in the 0-2% range.

Only the dumbest of morons think their personal anecdote outweighs statistical data.

Deep state judge protecting his deep state actors.

#23 | Posted by THEBULL

How did the deep state make trump prioritize his lawyer's appearance over her competence?

This is actually a bummer. I was looking forward to comey smacking down all their conspiracies in court.

It's hilarious that trump can't even properly prosecute his political opponents because it's more important to him to hire hot lawyers.

Gates too.

All gates said was climate change won't kill everyone in the near term.

Elon went fully from "climate change is the biggest threat facing humanity" to "trans kids are the biggest threat facing humanity"
