This one is for all the @redstateinsurgents@a.gup.pe
How many magas can afford 100k watches?
Obsolete Biden stickers! Lol I hope they have boxes of these dishonest attacks on a candidate who’s not running anymore…
Whilst voting against addressing any issues that would improve their situation at every given opportunity.
Change watch to guns and you nailed it
dont forget they’re still paying off a divorce
In anglo Canada we have our own version of this that includes at least 1 oversized Canadian flag, at least 1 “FUCK 🍁 TRUDEAU” and 1 “FREEDOM” optionally also on flags or decals, something sloppily painted in white complaining about coronavirus mandates, and getting more common is something insulting Jagmeet Singh.
They have maga and Trump merch as well
It’s very confusing how they can fly a Maple Leaf and not know what country they’re in
hey! you leave beer and cigs out of this!
Tbf, those are symptoms of despair, in most cases, regardless of income.
ok man. i’ll be over here having a good time.
That’s what a local said, until they ended up needing a lawyer. I’m not blaming the consumers. I’m blaming the economic policies.
what are you even talking about?
I work in a gas station, there is a MAGA regular who is constantly complaining about how broke she is, she buys 2 packs of unfiltered camels a day, that’s $14.60 a pack, over $800 a month just for cigarettes cause she buys the most expensive packs in the store.
at those prices meth is cheaper.
At this point, I actually think the meth is more socially acceptable, too.
its not hard to get a prescription either. Insurance will pay for 60% of it.
LOL! The MAGA idiots fail to realize healthcare costs are far worse than fuel prices.
I personally have pity for rank and file Republican voters.
They were simply easy marks our education system intentionally failed to teach critical thinking and reason to because obedient laborers don’t need that, and were then spoonfed sensationalist lies that appealed to their fears and anxieties, the easiest avenues for indoctrination, for the last half century under the guise of being “news” for the private profit of private shareholders and to turn them into useful idiot dependable votes for those same private shareholders to effectively capture their regulators and government that was once meant to protect us from them.
As just one in an ocean of examples, Fox “News” has been telling these poor sad bastards that “man made climate change is a hoax for scientists to sell books!”
So what you’re saying is, you don’t hate the fools, you pity them.
Leave my beer and cigarettes alone.
Okay the 70k lifted truck is valid. But I don’t think maga people are out there buying 100k watches
OK, substitute the NFTs and testosterone pills
Recently Trump was selling $100K gold watches; I’m assuming it was mostly maga folks who bought them
It was almost certainly a way to hide “donations” (bribes), from multimillionaires and billionaires, not random maga poor people
Not the people that can’t afford gas, what the post is about. They don’t have 100k to spend on a watch.
Yeah but they can’t afford gas while Trump is selling expensive jewelry lol
And all this with the dirt cheap gas prices in the US. In comparison to Europe, gas in the US is nearly free…
My conservative Christian, formerly maga parent recently raised the point and I had to remind them fossil energy is heavily taxpayer subsidized. Again.
Sorry to hijack your comment, but seeing that “my grandchildren are in my daughters’ ovaries post” right above this one and your comment made me wonder:
Why is gas so damn cheap in the US while saying “healthcare is expensive” is a giant understatement.
Compared with Europe, where gas prices are regulated (and gas stations still seem to be doing just fine to the point that new ones keep popping up around where I live at an astounding rate) while it’s the healthcare that is subsidised and made availiable to all.
How come? Why aren’t gas companies in the US be as greedy as hospitals and pharma there? Why aren’t European gas stations few and far between, continuing to barely hold on, fail and ultimately closeleaving Europe gasless?
They are greedy
U.S. fossil fuel subsidies stretch across the U.S. tax code, which makes detailing their costs complex. The IMF estimates they stood at $760 billion in 2022, a figure topped only by China.
However, that quote isn’t entirely fair to China.
Also it’s Reuters, so kilo of salt.
In the EU, fuel is heavily taxed and most people drive smaller fuel efficient automobiles. The fuel prices in Europe never bothered me, but I start laughing at the Americans who complain about $4.00 a gallon and drive gas guzzlers carrying fucking air.
As an American: because gas has to compete. You can’t ask to go to the cheap hospital, they don’t even usually tell you the price before administering medicine. So hospitals charge what they’d like and that’s that. Gas prices are highly competitive and we’re one of the world’s primary oil producers and refiners. Additionally the Biden administration has been using our strategic oil reserves to stabilize gas prices.
Why did four people downvote this? It’s the truth.
Because they saw Biden.
I saw a lady apolozing to Trump for not donating because she had to pay her medical bills and was living in disability. So she was basically giving her disability check to Trump every month. 😖
If you’d see that in a movie it would be a weird comedy where someone’s head spins around 360° for no reason so the viewer doesn’t know anymore what to believe and what not.
Someone should rerun the Jerry Falwell ad with Trump on the headline
Hey now, beer and cigarettes are necessities.
That’s not true.
I’d say more beer and more cigarettes are necessities.
