Halloween Jack posted:If I was a small child and someone threatened me with the spectre of nuclear annihilation, to the point of making me duck under my desk for nuclear war drills, and then told me that this is because of socialism, I'd probably have a Pavlovian reaction to it too. so you're saying that we just need all of the schools that are currently performing active shooter drills to accompany said drills with a repeating message "THIS IS HAPPENING BECAUSE OF CAPITALISM" i mean, if they're going to keep traumatizing kids anyway, might as well get some long-term benefits out of it

euphronius posted:and eventually ran a super bowl ad which basically said everything that Kaepernick et al were saying. lol i was legit stunned when that ad played during the superbowl that they would approve that kind of thing to run. i mean i guess nobody (that i am aware) kneeled any more during the 2019 season (or if they did, they no longer broadcast it) so they figured it wasn't going to rile anybody important up

Business Gorillas posted:lmfao "help me i finally triggered the libs and now they won't talk to me" last year right before thanksgiving my old man wanted to talk about why our relationship had deteriorated over the last decade+ and he would not, could not accept this his own actions had any bearing on the situation. a lot of olds genuinely believe that they're entitled to their family having to put up with their shameful garbage without ever suffering any repercussions just because you happen to be blood relatives. you can tell trump believes the same thing because he can't even fathom a scenario where everyone in his family doesn't have to slavishly bend to his every whim. unfortunately for 99.99999999% of the rest of the boomers, they don't personally command a sufficient level of authority and/or wealth to compel their relations to put up with all of their poo poo

Dr. Faustus posted:I'm honestly waiting for two things: first, it gets very bad and cannot be ignored; fyi this will never happen. trump et al have people convinced catastrophic climate catastrophe isn't real despite the fact that mother nature is obliterating entire landmasses in real time right in front of their eyes; they're already making their narrative "we fixed it, it's done, you're safe america". this is the die under trump thread anyway, these assholes will deny the have COVID19 even as it's systemically shutting down their internal organs

BiggerBoat posted:Just hating watching my country die right in front of my eyes while half of my fellow citizens either consider it god's will or evidence that we're just not big enough selfish assholes. the country you believe is suddenly dying has never existed anywhere but your imagination. it is already as dead as the star that appears to be shining light at night; it is only your perception that is presently dying like, we were founded by a bunch of wealthy white slave owners who decided they didn't like paying taxes and realized that the geographic distance between themselves and their ruler was great enough that they could likely break away with an acceptable amount of losses. they went and duped a bunch of poor farmers and tradesmen into fighting their war against the british, with promises of a better life that never materialized for the majority of the combatants, even for those that survived the war. all so these slave owning assholes could rig everything so that they not only got to pay their own taxes directly to themselves, but also got the poor farmers and tradesmen into paying their taxes to the new government too. oh and also they didn't break up the system of chattel slavery because gently caress you that's our primary profit center, plus how else are we supposed to father bastard children with women who legally cannot resist our advances

ChipNDip posted:They ignore the latter because it doesn't fit their worldview. Grape posted:These sorts will process the change in tone as "Poor Trump/Fox are being forced to say this by the globalists! See? Watch the blinking! That's Morris code for "don't listen!"" yeah, they listen when he says what they already agree with, and when he says something to the contrary they've been taught hundreds of different ways to justify / dismiss / ignore what's being said. "oh he has to say XYZ because otherwise he'd get in trouble with the PC police and they'd send him to jail" *conveniently ignores all of the racist/sexist/etc. poo poo he says every hour, on the hour with no repercussion"

 "you see back in the day when we had bad information to work off of, we made some choices that were rather poor. of course now that we have much better information to work with, we should still make those same poor choices because . . . tradition?" edit: if you ever feel the need to scream "AND I TURNED OUT FINE" in any context, you actually did not turn out fine

VRViperII posted:You guys are hosed. You can’t make a difference. Too many of your citizens are irredeemable moronic assholes and they revel in it. Bail. the only people for whom it is financially feasible to bail are people that are already fine as-is in this country. for anybody else, just bailing is not a realistic option (for a variety of complex reasons) oh my god i can only hope and pray that the RNC continues uninterrupted. that would be such a windfall

CharlestheHammer posted:middle class bailing and loving over the poor is on brand tho that's the best part about our current situation, even the "middle class" doesn't have the economic autonomy to actually pull a move like that. bailing on the entire situation is really only the providence of the completely destitute or the extremely wealthy although i guess you could consider the white flight patterns of residential migration to be an analogous situation. so the middle class can move to a different part of town, but they can't realistically leave the country

Son of Rodney posted:These complex reasons being what exactly? Financially being a reason is pretty lol coming from a country where you can bankrupt yourself from breaking an arm or having a heart attack. what if you have a family member that is dependent on you for some form of support, and they can't leave the country with you you could say "LOL BYE GRANDMA!" because goons are notoriously unable to empathize with other human beings, but there's a fair amount of people (who are not terminally online) that would not be able to just abandon a family member who required support

Son of Rodney posted:What does that have to do with the financial situation, and how is that unique to Americans? what do you think support means? whether that means literally paying money for their medicine / surgery / palliative care or whether it means physically having to provide the care yourself (and thus expending your limited resource of time) or any other way that you can define support, it all relates to finances.
