This is actually pretty insidious in how it transforms capital's desire to see people return to work in order to die into liberation. I almost expect to post about how work makes one free.

KKKLIP ART posted:How do you even have a negative price on oil? The person who has the oil pays someone else to take it from them. They might do this because storing oil is relatively difficult, surprisingly expensive, and there aren't a lot of places that can do it with spare capacity right now. Can't wait for lots of "accidental" but very profitable oil spills. SocketWrench posted:The moment it costs more to extract it than it sells for No, that happens semi-regularly when the price of oil crashes (say, because the Saudi government wanted to knock the market out from under other producers - a small loss for them is apocalyptic for most other oil companies). People still keep extracting oil, because a small loss that covers most of their fixed expenses is better for them than a big one. Oil is a very capital-intensive business and they've all got huge loans to pay. Truly negative oil prices as something other than a tiny, instantly-corrected glitch would be new territory.

Falling for it is still dumb.

Herewaard posted:That sign is more likely referencing the more general protestant idea that work gives your life meaning. It comes across as true to a lot of people in america because we have be so indoctrinated in the idea that you identify with with your job or occupation is. A lot of people do get diagnosed with depression after they lose their job or are forced to retire. I don't think she or her family are smart enough to write that as a "Are there no workhouses?!"

The fresh air meme comes from a FB post about how soldiers in WW2 fared better in fresh air than the medical tents. Which...no poo poo given a medical tent would have stagnant air shared with a bunch of other guys and their pathogens. Although it is likely a wholly made-up Facebook meme, it’s not like our hospitals are tending to patients in tents. ...yet

He's a bad candidate, but it's also a bad ad that's obviously not designed to go anywhere but on Twitter. It's designed to appeal to you, and a sense of ironic nothing-matters-ism, just like stock footage of flags and bald eagles appeals to boomers. You're falling for it.

Coronavirus tents shows a lot of pics and info about tents being used for makeshift hospital rooms There's a tent hospital in Central Park right now. It was set up by Franklin Graham, who tried to make all the staff sign affirmations of faith (and turned away gay applicants). I don't know its current status but the city government was not happy about that.

Just a reminder that any "digital" ad that is posted on Twitter/FB is going specifically to people that were already going to vote for Trump. The goal is to keep them incensed into voting. The moderate republicans, and some-how-I-breathe undecideds aren't always hooked up into that online world. 2016's Republican turnout was hilariously lower than 2012's. After 4 years of watching Trump try to inflate a balloon using his rear end in a top hat, more voters are going to come out to vote for Biden because he's sadly not really a Democrat, but can appeal to enough on-the-fence Republicans and undecideds by being "that guy doesn't have a history of loving up our own poo poo".

Mr Ice Cream Glove posted:Wisconsin protest photos Its amazing that these chuds think their freedom is being taken away. They are just merely being prevented from doing the stupidest thing possible yet they still found a way to do it. Whenever I see stupid right wingers talking about liberty or freedom it just upsets me because they are really invested in the authoritarian party that is interested in taking your rights away...recently notable the first amendment right to take part in BDS. Its almost like they have the FOX news mentality of what liberty is. Never ceases to blow my mind. I would love to hear what you guys think their idea of freedom and liberty is.

I asked a few how the Patriot Act isn't a rights violation but telling you to avoid getting a hair cut is treason. I got answers ranging from "Because it's called the PATRIOT act" to "Because it was needed". How restricting everyone's rights because a one time event took place that this bill won't prevent is beyond me. Yeah, I know it's just right wingers clawing for an excuse of "It's good when my side does it"

The goal is to keep them incensed into voting. The moderate republicans, and some-how-I-breathe undecideds aren't always hooked up into that online world. His campaign ads aren't just for his own die-hards. Trump is actively pushing ads that are designed to make you think "there's no difference at all between Trump and Biden, this poo poo is funny but just doesn't matter." Someone who was going to go out, sigh, and pull the lever against Trump, but decides to just stay home, is just as much of a victory for his campaign as convincing someone who was going to stay at home to go vote for him. He's not doing so well at turning out new voters, so this is a core part of his campaign strategy. It's just another angle on depressing and suppressing turnout. His campaign team isn't making these ads because they like funny memes; they're making it because they want to convince people like us to believe something that benefits them.
