Bird flu will definitely do that.

So Spez can sell them out.

I want them to win. And they will. Short of global nuclear war they can’t lose. Venture capital can’t even dream of competing with central planning. Not even a question.

It’s not really trust. It’s more like hate. I hate this country. I hate what it’s turned into. I hate the oligarchy. I hate the captured politicians. I hate that the supposed opposition to actual fascists is a bunch of whinging cunts who’s primary concerns are about rules and norms. I hate that we are everything our propaganda told us about the rest of the world. I hate that our entire economic system is just a jenga stack of pyramid schemes.

We are a failed state. And if what I type on my phone helps our geopolitical “adversaries” get even 1 human hairs worth of advantage on this shithole then I’ll give it gladly.

Cool. I’d rather China have it than some American megacorp.

I trust China more.

He is a fascist. And should be treated exactly the same way soldiers treated fascists 80 years ago.

God damn. What a wild thing to read first thing.

Then Columbia put 50% tariffs on the US.

Love it.

We were almost done with the Harambe timeline. But some dumbasses in NY had to kidnap and kill an internet famous squirrel named P’Nut…Now we’re an openly fascist country.

You mean bots? Cuz it’s all bots.

Good. Love to see it.

Starve the beast. Don’t pay your taxes either. Go to HR and change your tax withholding to tax exempt.

You’ll catch fines eventually. But in the meantime your check will be a little bigger and you’ll be denying tax funds to a fascist government.

If we ever get a sane government I’ll pay those fines happily.

THE DARKNESS 3

Blueballed for 15 years.

What’s it mean if I never break eye contact and maintain a blank expression?

Good. Hope the whole industry goes bust.

“Corporate Media”

Where’s the confusion?

That’s the primary reason yes.

We don’t tax corps. We used to. Taxed them 70-95% I can’t remember the actual number.

But that’s what built the industrial powerhouse that won the cold war. Those high taxes could only be written off by reinvesting into the business. Hiring more people. Raising wages. Buying new equipment. Those high tax rates are what made it all work.

Without those you get Gilded ages like what both proceeded and have followed them. Because capitalism eats itself without a strong government hand at the tiller. Protecting it from itself.

Well congrats to them I guess. The industry coordinated to recreate cable and its reviving the piracy that affordable streaming cut way down on back in the day.

It will actually.

In its current form the dems are a center-right republican-lite party. They serve the same oligarchs the Rs do.

You see that in the policies they push and support. Or rather, the lack of policies. They don’t do anything constructive that would actually help people unless it’s a PR stunt when they need a little boost. And even then they lash it down with narrow scope and means testing.

They are supposed to be the opposition. As in oppose. But they don’t. They refuse to. And they actively work to keep people who want to work for the good of the people out of positions of influence. If the dems wanted to, they would never lose an election again. But they don’t want to.

Do you know why we have term limits? It’s because the populist policy and social programs instituted by FDR made him so popular he was elected to 3 terms as president. Minimum wage, labor laws, social security, etc.
