Cheer up guys a few oligarchs that own everything are enjoying record profits
And they’ll still vote red.
Looking at you Tennessee. Should have done better in the special election
And they’ll still vote red.
The current governor of West Virginia, Jim Justice, changed party from D to R the day he was sworn in.
WV is a textbook “both parties suck” case of corporate capture. And that’s in communities where voting is accessible. Not one where the voters are disenfranchised, the election infrastructure is deliberately neglected, and the parties just parachute in candidates to rotten districts.
Kentucky also has a Democrat in the governor’s mansion. We’re still waiting to hear how this will save the state from Trumpism
Kentucky has had a Democratic governor since he beat the carpetbagger Republican incumbent during Trump’s first term.
But the General Assembly is overwhelmingly Republican (86% in the senate, 80% in the house), so his effectiveness is limited.
I feel like West Virginia needs to embrace the ways of their four fathers and start shooting politicians and corpo dogs. At the very least WV is close enough to worst case scenario that it probably can’t make things much worse at this point.
Notice how all the black people are at the back of the boat.
Why are all the white ones only raising their right hand to chest height and everyone else has both hands up.
That’s not fair, one of the white guys also has a phantom black hand popping out of his head. Now don’t you feel foolish?
He had to specify no Nazi salute in his prompt ?
Never thought ai would be the ones pushing technofacism.
LLM slop factories are overtly racist because they’re trained on shit lifted straight off the internet.
Kinda crazy to depict trump walking on water like Jesus. I know its a cult and they treat him like Jesus but still
Have you not heard the actual quote from dog killer Noem at the cabinet meeting the other day?
Sir, you made it through hurricane season without a hurricane… even you kept the hurricanes away. We appreciate that.
No I had not heard about this and fuck you for showing me lol
Something something HAARP…
Uuuhhh isn’t that just literally a lie? Like wtf
They’re not beating the “We worship Donald Trump” allegations
most aren’t even trying to beat the allegations
I remember watching someone on the news literally say that he was chosen by God.
Propaganda and lies.
It’s Nick Adams, sentient turd and wonder of modern science.
And that’s somehow not satire?
Paid propaganda unfortunately
Is trump personally going to sink that boat?
Nah, that’s Hegseth’s job
I think the word you’re looking for is “delusional”
“Hunger” as in the statistic measuring hunger has been eradicated, yes.
Maybe he thinks hunger has been eradicated because he’s smoking crack.
People in red states masking? I have doubts.
How does this happen, do these people all own their own house? Like if I was struggling it’s the house that is going to be a problem, food is a rounding error compared to food costs. Especially if money is tight.
Mortgage £1100/month, enough food to survive for the week… £5? Not sure. Currently pay £10-15 each but eating pretty well. So £20-40 a month food most likely.
Something tells me people don’t stand in line like this unless they’re desperate for help. I don’t want to accuse, but your post is victim blaming level. Glad for you that you don’t understand what it’s like to be this close or past the point of being able to eat every day.
So NPR went to a heavy Trump voting area food bank while snap was not being paid out to see how hungry Trump supporters were feeling.
They got this one lady saying it was good, SNAP was bad because people should be able to feed themselves. Seemingly realizing that was a pretty weird thing to say while getting food from a food bank. She said “I can feed myself, but just here in case that have some food I would like for free”.
So at least she claims she wasn’t desperate for help, just taking some free food. Almost certainly BS, but we are dealing with a crowd that thinks taking food meant for the hungry when you didn’t need it is less shameful than actually needing food…
I misplaced my shocked face, where is it?
Hundred percent. I’ll take holes in my shoes and staying warm by layering clothes on top of my blankets again over going hungry again.
I have a feeling you don’t track your food expenses well if you think that little can feed a person, let alone a household, without a lot of charitable support or food from friends and family.
The most literal definition of “survive”, bulk rice and dried beans.
First: They might have a mortgage. They might be struggling to pay the mortgage. Mortgage gets paid first. They might have made the calculation that they had to pay the mortgage and rely on charity to avoid starving.
Second: They might have a mortgage that is already in default. They could be approaching foreclosure. Struggling perhaps more than you imagine.
Third. They might rent. They might be facing eviction. They might be barely surviving.
Fourth: They might already be homeless. Lucky I guess. They don’t have to worry about a mortgage or rent anymore.
Those are just the thoughts I could come up with right now.
Also, this is America. A medical emergency can leave you with nothing.
They may also be living with family, who in turn might be struggling.
What used to be a weekly £40 shop for the household is now £100.
How on earth are you only paying £20-£40 a month for food?! My weekly shop costs more than £20, and I live alone…
How does this happen, do these people all own their own house?
If it’s a family home, very likely.
A little bit of inflation is a good thing.
Edit: Lots of misunderstanding my point. My fault for not being crystal clear. This guy Nick Adams says “inflation is non-existent” like that would somehow be a good thing. Non-existent inflation would be a bad thing.
A little bit of inflation is a good thing, and non-existent inflation shouldn’t be the goal.
Wouldn’t be so bad if it were only a little bit, and if that were the only problem.
Yes, but the original post says “inflation is non-existent”, which is bad. I was just pointing out the stupidity of Nick Adams, whoever that is.
You mean the inflation we narrowly escaped last administration? The inflation that was easing but is now raging? Yeah.
The original post says “inflation is non-existent”, which would be bad but they are claiming it’s somehow good (despite being 100% false). I was just pointing out the stupidity of Nick Adams, whoever that is.
He’s the US ambassador to Malaysia and another Trump cultist grifter. Obviously.
Inflation isn’t a problem if everything else keeps in step with it. But it doesn’t work that way, sometimes things lag behind for years, or decades.
The inflation rn is not “a little bit”, plus add corporate price gouging on top of it…
The original post says “inflation is non-existent”, which would be bad but they are claiming it’s somehow good (despite being 100% false). I was just pointing out the stupidity of Nick Adams, whoever that is.
A good thing in a bad system built on endless growth, sure.
