In all seriousness, where do these statistics come from that say the economy is doing great?

Like are we talking about the stats that say millions of new jobs and businesses are being created and when you look at them, they're talking about Uber/Lyft drivers?

p much yea it's 99% part time

Thats the dumbest poo poo I've ever heard, Homer used tons of little turns of phrase because he used a ton of mnemonic aids and that was one of them, it doesn't prove they can't see blue (how the gently caress would that even work, are Greeks aliens)

Not to reignite the discussion about it, but when it comes to AOC I lean fairly strongly towards 'op' rather than 'naivete about her ability to change the system from within'. Whether she's effective or not, though, AOC got exactly what she wanted from her job: Cadillac health care, a cushy make-work job, and hobnobbing with the elites.

She's not an op, because if she was she would be being utilized way more to funnel people into traditional party apparatuses.

I mentioned it before but it's fair to think that she is one, because she tried as hard as she could to set herself up in that position for easy advancement but unfortunately for her she had mild criticism of pelosi and the Dems at one point so she must be brought to heel at every opportunity

which is kind of funny, didn't TikTok and K-Pop kids screw up his Tulsa rally a few years ago? I thought it would be something he'd be holding a venomous grudge about... not that I'm complaining lol

Trump has a higher IQ than Biden (shocking, I know) and saw how unpopular this was with the youth and went "you know I can probably steal most of the youth vote just by saying i'm going to reverse this" and meanwhile biden and the dems and the country club republicans are out here going "oh he's only doing this for his BILLIONAIRE buddies. He's CROOKED. don't fall for his RUSES" and jerking each other off in politico and nyt articles

It's a huge problem. Zionists have cried wolf once too many times and now people are less receptive to the accusation of antisemitism - even when it might be actual Jew hatred and not "college students saying 'from the river to the sea'. I am not Jewish so I wonder what sort of reckoning is already happening in the Jewish community over the conflation of Judaism and Zionism.

That's one of Israels goals, to make being Jewish unsafe everywhere except the ethnostate to force support

Idk man the fallout show is good but the franchise is clearly unable to consider anything outside of its premise. fallout 2 and van buren were explicitly designed to show a growth of civilization in the wasteland but that's too complicated for Todd so they just reset everything over and over again

vulnerable in that the party brass doesn't like her and is supporting her challengers. I wouldn't be surprised if they swing behind Hayes or cut her re-election funding for the general

It's really funny to see people talk up Biden and mention poo poo that has always existed as points in his favor. Like pslf and ibr plans literally didn't exist before Biden. They haven't been around for like 20+ years, ONLY Joe has been able to create these

The Stranger is one of the dumbest books, and that was at my personal peak of college grad existentialism rules phase. Some spoiled, bored as hell white guy kills an arab just to feel something? Ponders hard about it?

hosed up book, frankly. gently caress albert camel.

It's a pretty good view into the mindset of the idle rich even to this day, where they do openly harmful and monsterous poo poo just to feel anything
