Nothing but love and respect for MY president

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

I feel so split on the whole student debt forgiveness thing. On one hand, I think education should be free.

On the other hand, if people were so financially illiterate and got themselves into crushing debt by willfully going to school then that is entirely their fault.

Anecdotal but I got accepted into a top 5 school and decided not to go there because I couldn't afford it and didn't feel comfortable with the debt. I ended up going to only a top 10 because I could afford it. I paid back all of my loans already.

Seems a bit unfair that I am not going to get any of that interest back.

Beschloss, by referencing "a change of a few dozen electoral votes in November", seems to be suggesting that if Trump had won, and not Biden, then democracy would have been lost.

This runs parallel to that tweet by Amy Siskind where she says a dictated was removed from power... via voting.

Because if Trump winning an election is equated to the loss of democracy, then what they're really saying is that democracy only applies if it's "their guy" that wins.

But if that were case, Trump already won an election the first time - so if democracy had been lost then, why did people put up with it for four years?

so basically what this guy is saying is that if 1/6 had actually managed to go off with anything close to the fantasy those chuds had, is that he would have gone along with it.

like, uh-duh I may not like it, but they coerced pence at this ceremonial counting into throwing out enough slates of electors so now trump is president for life, and because it happened inside the sacred temple it's official, them's the rules and I must abide by these norms because without norms and ceremony, we're nothing.

you not being tricked by a failing society does not mean that you should be pulling the ladder up and laughing at those that couldn’t get up first


people that are struggling with student loans never pay down interest so they probably have paid more than you did anyway

I don't even know what outcome would have caused the 1/6 chuds to get what they wanted tbh

that's why I still feel weird calling it a coup, you don't get to become the government by breaking windows in a government building. If they did put zipties on Senators or whatever, more people would have died, and maybe some of them would have been Senators, but they still wouldn't get Trump declared god-emperor or whatever

p much just an extremely efficient way to put chuds in jail AFAICT, Trump is an inside job

It's kinda funny looking back because I went out to a bar and got drunk during Trump's inauguration specifically so that I wouldn't be in a position to try and watch it

and now it's 2021 and I still don't want to watch the inauguration

guessing its a quote but

eliminating student debt would close 1/3 of the racial wealth gap

its also just the only sane thing to do

people "willfully go to school" and take on tons of debt because theyre told its the only way to escape to a less soul- and body-crushing tier of servitude

i paid off all of my student loans but it doesnt loving matter. gently caress your interest, be pissed at the lenders and the system not the other people behind you on the ladder

also the different between a top-5 and a top-10 school is like 50k/year vs 60k/year if that so youre wrong in addition to being an trickle down misery rear end in a top hat

The feeling is definitely there. It's a new morning in America . . . fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.
