Everyone does it, tho!?!

• Fox News.

The last time someone tried to sell oil in anything other than the US dollar, his country was invaded under false pretenses.

"The most ironic thing is with the settlement that I did receive [20 million pounds from his father’s estate since John only gave him 100K in his will], is that I’ve been buying his stuff back with that, so, I’m buying his stuff back with his money, which is absolutely insane.”

you just mansplained a dad joke.

Another fun fact: people with orange hair are called redheads because orange is a relatively new word and orange used to be just a shade of red.

you’re in a dangerous loop.

MAke America Tax the Rich Again.

Make America like the 1950s.

The think tanks funded by rich people saying “They want to take away your guns/cows/statues etc” and “unions suck” are better at this than we are.

We can want all we want, but a whole pile of the media is owned by the 1% and what they want is the status quo.

Conservatism is literally, don’t change anything.

I think you mean Airplane! mode.

The two indictments about Jan 6th and the plot to use fake electors offer a detailed look at a conspiracy. This isn’t just mob talk about “it would be awesome if this happened” – there is evidence of a coordinated effort to create fake electors and attempt to steal an election. The act of creating fake electors is a crime. The conspiracy to create fake electors is a crime.

All of these things are a crime. The problem is, in America, people who have power are held to a higher standard. Trump will get all sorts of concessions, and slow this down like mad. What he also has is an entire network carrying water for him. Because of Fox News – which was started to avoid another Nixon, he gets to both sides this.

Okay, thank you for setting me straight.

This is why we can’t have nice things.

Facts are behind a paywall and bullshit flows for free.

Corporations invented Jaywalking to pass the problem of death by vehicle from the manufacturer to the victim. Corporations invented the concept of Litterbug to shift blame from the makers of trash to the disposers of trash. Corporations invented the concept of the personal carbon footprint to shift the blame from the makers of carbon to the users of carbon.

This is just the same thing. Corporations are good at this.

Take a moment to admire the marketing of the gun manufacturers for a minute. Like, imagine someone having 47 toasters.

Gun Manufacturers and the NRA (same thing) are good at what they do.

See you next summer.

This will be the coolest summer you ever experience.

Trump the candidate and Trump the defendant have different goals.

Trump the candidate will explain this is the deep state Biden admin curtailing his free speech.

Trump the defendant will have to defend himself from charges that aren’t related to free speech. So my guess is he’ll let them find him guilty (good for Trump the candidate) and hope that all the elections staff quitting means his people will get in and fix it for him.

Me.

This is why we need better education in the US.

Also, this is why we can’t have healthcare. We don’t know why we deserve it.

I was talking to a person once about single-payer Canadian healthcare. And she said, but what if someone doesn’t work? Should they still get it?

[I mean, yes.]

I said, how come you don’t ask that question about cops and firefighters? You don’t say, well if someone doesn’t work, should the firefighter’s come to their house if there is a fire? We have single-payer police insurance and single-payer firefighter insurance.

But after the fire, you’re on your own!

America! Fuck, yeah.
