My dad believes people are doing this and was bragging about it after Trump's election (he didn't claim to have done it himself)

Conservatives have been turned into such slavish little consumers that they can't do without their favorite brands even when they hate those brands for being too culturally liberal so they just signal their tribal affiliations as they give money to their enemies. Not sure if they think they're owning the Starbucks execs who get their money and never see their little coffee-name protest or if they're realistic enough to settle for imagining they're owning a $14/hr barista who does more annoying poo poo every day than say "Trump" for a smug suburbanite.

They always end up on the Fox News Rage-a-Thon because they have holiday cups instead of christmas cups and it drives the right crazy to admit other religions have a right to exist.

From there, it's cultural osmosis. They do thing the right hates, so they must hate the right exclusively. Ergo, liberal.

My dad had a hot take some time ago, when Starbucks said they would hire ten thousand immigrants in support of their communities, and Matt Best decided to stick it to them by hiring ten thousand veterans in response. But since his clothing, coffee and whiskey line isn't large enough to have that kind of staff, Starbucks said they would hire the 10k veterans themselves. Of course they held it up like a victory instead of the massive self-own it was.

quote:

OBAMA CRONY bars US from enforcing Trump asylum ban 👹 MARXIST GLOBALIST STRIKES AGAINST USA SOVEREIGNTY 💩
-
Who does this bitch think he is?
California shouldnt have any judges at this point- so corrupt.
-
Our military doesnt report to commie judges...nor any judges
-
SO, it would be OK if I broke into his house and when I get caught ask if I can stay and watch his TV, eat his food, and drink his beer?
-
oval office. Change my mind.
-
-
Ignore it. These commie judges are not kings and queens. gently caress 'em.This is a perfect case for Trump to pull an Andrew Jackson and tell this court to gently caress right off.
"The court exceeded its authority. This is not a valid order. It will not be enforced."
The judicial branch does not have supremacy over the other two branches in our system of government. Take a stand and let them shriek their loving heads off.
-

This rear end in a top hat is responsible for taxpayer funded prisoner sex change surgery and his father Michael Tigar defended Terry Nichols in the OKC bombing trial
-
Traitorous foreign born operative. Revoke his citizenship. This guy is abusing his power of the court to subvert and weaken the US government and her military.
-
It's simple actually. If the executive branch is executing a lawful order . . . . ignore the activist judge and do the right thing. Enough of this activist judge garbage. Let all these subversive groups like the ACLU howl and shriek when they watch these people get thrown back across the border. This consistent attack on the sovereignty of our nation is deliberate and has to be stopped.
-
gently caress you ACLU. Enough with these assholes running to Federal judges! Federal judges can't compel a President to do anything
-
AAAAAAARRRRRRRRGH YOU THINK YOU CAN CIRCUMVENT THE CONSTITUTION YOU COMMIE FUCKS
-
TRUMP MUST CALL STATE OF EMERGENCY....PLEASE TELL ME HE SAW THIS COMING!!
-
gently caress these would-be dictators! This is a loving attempted coup! Arrest the worthless piece of poo poo for sedition and treason, because he/she/it is permitting an INVASION OF OUR COUNTRY!
-
People bring this up all the time, but it would be easier and more effective for us to simply gather in a few states, secede, and let the U.S. government fail on its own.
The way the demographics are, if we let California and Hawaii go, in 6 years we'll have to let Texas go, then Florida, Arizona, New Mexico, NY, etc.
This stuff spreads like wildfire. Only way to fix it is to split off from the fire, isolate ourselves, don't let anyonein, and only emerge when we can rise like a phoenix from the ashes.
-
Don't come in ILLEGALLY and try to get the GOVERNMENT (taxpayers) to fund your life, come in LEGALLY (NOT THAT HARD) AND GET A JOB.
-
Just throw a few Flashbangs at the Caravan, They'll gently caress off
-
From the Human Feces captial of the nation comes another pile of poo poo.New AG has to stop this in its tracks, not next month or next week... Today.
-
Use all your AG powers and bulldoze this Activist Judge into the ground, no mercy, end his career and threaten him with impeachment/jail for obstruction/national security tampering (i dont know much lawyer speak, im only familiar with bird law)... Enough already with these nobodys with TDS putting the entire country at risk because "muh feelings". This isn't about some environmental regulation, there's a loving horde of foreign invaders at the southern border, if they manage to get into the USA, there will literally be MILLIONS more on the way, never ending stream of migrants and then it's over.
-
Death of a nation. poo poo makes me sad as gently caress.
-
Another judge who hates America and wants to allow criminals, rapists, murderers, and potential terrorists into this country, all because he hates Trump - the US justice system is completely political with activist judges who rule according to their political beliefs, and against people who have conservative views and people who don't accept their bigoted opinions readily - impartiality, fairness, and integrity are things of the past.
-
SEND THEM ALL TO SANFRANCISCO. ALL the immigrants. MOTHER loving ALL OF THEM - house them in this Judges house.
-
This poo poo is death by a thousand cuts. Trump needs to remove any judges that were appointed by Obama or Clinton.
-
This is a national security issue, tell the judge to go suck a dick, assuming he isn’t already, and proceed with protecting the border.
-
Trump should go after every single loving illegal that didn't show up for court and throw them out of the country. See how the cuck Judge likes that.

quote:

While it’s difficult to measure how many Americans have invested in the dinar, court papers related to dinar scams often mention millions of dollars worth of dinar purchases. Dinar holders regularly tweet at Trump and various Iraqi government Twitter accounts, demanding to know when they’ll finally enact the “RV” that will let the money flow in.

The dinar scam has become particularly Trump-centric since 2015, over rumors that Trump has personally invested in the dinar (there’s no evidence that he actually does). Search-engine searches related to Trump and the dinar have shot up, according to Google Trends, returning hoax articles claiming Trump has bought millions of dollars worth of dinars.

quote:

The most devoted dinar investors tend to become obsessed with the minute details of Iraqi politics, convincing themselves that a new director of the Iraqi central bank or a particular infrastructure program in Nineveh is all that stands between them and millions of dollars.

Kotseos herself has dived headfirst into the dinar internet, tweeting regularly about her RV theories. She’s also invested in the Vietnamese dong, a dinar rival that’s worth even less, and she has strong feelings about various Iraqi politicians.

“With what’s going on in Iraq right now, everything is so hopeful,” Kotseos said.

Kotseos also spends a portion of each day in a dinar chatroom, where dinar holders try to convince one another that their investment will eventually pay off. Instead, she tries to promote “hopium”—dinar-world slang for optimism about the currency.

“Some people get a little negative,” said Kotseos, who also tweets about the pro-Trump QAnon conspiracy theory. “You’ve gotta squish it fast. We just support each other.”

Kotseos said her family can afford to lose their dinar investments, if the currency never appreciates. But she’s convinced that she’ll be able to resell her dinar and at least recover a majority of her investment.

Those prospects are actually somewhat unclear. Many resellers will only buy back a portion of the dinars they sell, and they tend to sell them at already inflated prices.

But for now, Kotseos isn’t selling. She said she has seen ads offering to buy back dinar, but she ignores them.

“You’re not getting my dinar,” Kotseos said.

If you need any proof that the US isn't a meritocracy, it's that these people have the money to waste on this and aren't starving.

I’m very moderate in politics, but slightly left of centre. I like to follow the truth where it falls. But he will not allow for any kind of discourse or debate. He’s right, and I’m wrong.
