Sometimes the technically proper name is just worse.

Like toasted cheese. Which is a weird south-central NY thing.

Nowhere in the country can you afford rent on minimum wage. Not in cities, not in small towns, not in bum fuck nowheresville cheapest red state with no single public services .

20 states, or 40% of the country, do NOT have higher minimum wages than federal. That seems pretty relevant, especially since a stagnant minimum wage is what’s keeping your own higher than minimum pay suppressed.

What absolute dumbass thought that would be a good metric to track?

The federal poverty standard is horribly low. Like you’re still on the brink of homeless at twice that wage.

There’s no mechanism to do that.

And the in replacing them is, even without the gerrymandering, people tend to think it’s everyone else’s congressmember not doing their job, except their own. Because they couldn’t possibly have voted wrong.

So most didn’t ever change.

Republicans often try to liken women to witches in their constituents minds. It’s their go to smear. They hate women. They want them back in the kitchen under control of men, just like the propaganda that transformed post war America pushed

The brink? We’re already there, but the supply chain takes a few weeks to catch up. We are just now getting empty ports just like during covid. Empty ports now means empty shelves in a couple weeks. Empty shelves means prices skyrocket again. And layoffs start en mass when companies can’t get supplies that need workers to work on.

You just called someone maga because they said she was right regardless of what her personal situation was…

It’s right there. You’re not going to trick people in forgetting what was already said.

The title was what triggered it for me

Dude. Your entire “analysis” was : this person might possibly have a bias so what they’re saying must be wrong. Which is an idiotic conclusion. Bring skeptical is fine. But assuming everyone who could have a motive must therefore be lying is a good way to never gain any information at all because literally everyone who says something online has a motive to do so

Nah, Doc has feet, couldn’t be liefeld

Not being rich enough yet to fully take advantage of the corruption isn’t evidence she isn’t corrupt…

Even buying physical media, they claim you still don’t own the content, are only leasing it. It’s all bullshit to charge more and give us less. Stop defending this practice of eroding consumer rights

Sounds like it’s centralized around Linus…

There’s going to be empty shelves starting in the next week or two. We’re just hitting the first wave of hundred of cancelled cargo shipments from China. The supply chain has finally caught up to the start of this bullshit. Prices are going to skyrocket as products run out

It wouldn’t matter who pays the tariff, the price would go up regardless.

Inviting the individual while painting them all with a broad brush is not helpful. Individuals can be reached.

You’re right. Addressing the group doesn’t work. So stop doing that.

RFK jr is also the “mutilated a whale carcus and strapped the severed head to the roof of the car with his kids inside” guy

And this attitude will only continue to cement their position against reason…congrats, you have fucked yourself
