Damn, year 1905 ALMOST had it right when they said “nobody wants to work for wages”. A slight correction to “these wages” and they wouldve been 100 years before their time.

Fuck me I shouldve just described it as “despicable” and gotten on with my day 😂
Youd like to think thats true, it probably is. This post is from like 4-5 years ago (evidence is the “wear a mask” in the NYC account’s title). I’d guess that Mamdani has put that barbaric pratice behind the city, and that they would be moving forward on more low income housing and accessible shelters in the city.

24·4 个月前Long awaiting all my “Pro-Life” brothers and sisters to decry police violence, especially when it comes to dead kids… And yet it seems the only dead “kids” they care about are stuck in the womb; once youre out, youre on your own bucko.

1·1 年前Im really interested to see what kind of manual labor workers they get to paint the wall…like you know the US Federal government is gonna go with the cheapest bids, which will most likely be immigrants potentially of illegal status.

News@lemmy.world•Sharp rise in Americans applying for refugee status in Canada, data shows
13·1 年前And what would you have us all do? To be honest (as a straight, white dude in America with no real minority status) im pissed as all hell. Ive watched what was initially a kinda shitty country turn to straight far right Authoritarian in a heartbeat, and I dont want any of this shit. But aside from a large scale revolution, which includes burning it all down and starting over from scratch, what the hell do we do. Our votes all count the same, so we can go out and vote but we wont always have numbers. Realistically all I feel empowered to do is bitch on social media UNTIL something big pops off, and then go participate in it.

United States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Melania Trump demands Hunter Biden retract comments linking her to Jeffrey Epstein
2·1 年前Its not that we want to believe everything about Trump, but that we know hes a deplorable human and that most of this is probably true. You have to start opening your eyes to the absolute corruption that is taking over and that has completely taken over the Republican party. Which by the way, is supposed to be the party of law and order, trad family values, and small government, of which they are holding none of those values up on a pedestal anymore. I mean Vance is literally in support of deporting his wife and children (as they are of Indian descent). You cant tell me there arent better options within the party that would make fine presidents, so long as they kept the nationalism down to a minimum.

13·1 年前I think that means we have to physically test Trump in the same way to have him set the standard, right? Like I wanna know how long it takes for Donnie to waddle an entire mile.
SleepyBear@lemmy.worldtoEconomics@lemmy.world•Trump calls Fed chair ‘a numbskull’ who ‘makes it difficult for people to buy a house’

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Reddit bought giant ads in Paris, urging people to join English
1·1 年前See I dislike this mentality though. Shouldnt the point of business be to make a product thats widely popular and accessible to essentially everyone? Unless of course your burgers are made with higher quality meat than your competitors(as an example), so you pay a little more in costs for the product itself. I really think this culture of businesses being viewed as successful only if they post “record” profits every quarter (while simultaneously rolling back policies that made the business good/popular because it cost more money) is going to absolutely break the consumers back at some point.
Fair enough, that shows off my ignorance I honestly spoke without doing a lot of research on Fateh. Oops. The point still stands though! 😂 P.S. I realize it says this in the summary of the article, turns out I cant read either. Lol

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Who's the most ridiculed POTUS of history?
251·1 年前Most ridiculed in history? Trump. Any scandal or even conspiracy about other presidents honestly pale in comparison to just 1 single Trump day. Its to the point where we dont even call them scandals anymore, its just another day with Trump in office.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Reddit bought giant ads in Paris, urging people to join English
19·1 年前Reddit posting ads for more users is actually hilarious. They were soooo unconcerned with how many users they were going to lose when they made the 3rd party API changes. Like to the point where u/spez basically had a “let them eat cake” moment and just straight up said “were successful enough we dont care if we lose people”.

United States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Republicans block vote to release Epstein files
12·1 年前What I really wanna know is…the last we heard from the government on this the Epstein files “didnt exist”. So they just voted on whether or not to release files that may or may not exist? (I know they do and this is classic fed gov lying about what information they have). But why lie about the existence of said files only to turn around and have a vote on if theyre to be released publically?
See this guy is a “problem” being a foreign born citizen running for public office. When we just finished up having a foreign born citizen fucking around in our federal government for 6 months in a position that was not voted for, or on. Ill give you 1 guess as to what the difference is between those two people I mentioned, and its the reason why both Fareh and Mamdani are under such scrutiny.
As a native new yorker (and unfortunately its the part of NY that votes red most times) its really disgusting to see a Republican New Yorker in the list of Nays. Just giving us more names we have to vote out to fucking dredge this swamp.

Technology@lemmy.world•RFK Jr. Wants Every American to Be Sporting a Wearable Within Four YearsEnglish
11·1 年前Mandating Americans use ‘wearables’ for health reasons thats coming from the same party that, when asked to wear a mask during a worldwide pandemic for the public health decried government overreach, claiming it was like living in nazi germany, and even discredited Fauci over his very true claims of wearing masks helping to save lives. I truly cant wait to see what that side has to say about Junior here, gotta keep that same energy right??




Imma be real though homie, the two sides are not the same in their beliefs of how to handle it and thats where the problems arise. One side wants people to legally immograte, and are for changing the system to avoid as much backlog and frankly, bullshit in order to legally immigrate now. The other side wants them to illegally immigrate so they can deport them to prisons in worse countries (potentially making a buck off it too) and hunt them down using a privatised militia cosplaying as government agents (because them you have a privatised militia willing to take orders from just your side, and that leads to total authoritarian control). So its not like a “we just dont like the other side and thats why we refuse to work with them”, its more that the other side is kinda fucking evil, and working with them just means that evil gets to spill out all over the place.
