Next time axe the executives and keep the staff.

Most executives I've met can't read emails and just point to one of two numbers and say "higher/lower!" while dreaming of KPI's that don't improve anything and solely exist to stagnate wages

Americans actually do shoot quite well, but the rules around gun handling are incredibly strict for Olympic shooting.

Things like minor celebrations, emotion, or even the cadence of your walk while leaving the range can cause disqualification.

Since American shooters can't hit a bullseye without shotgunning a beer and magdumping into the sky as eagles carry exploding fireworks in celebration, they often do not place in Olympic shooting

And with some damn wiggle room this time.

We had multiple Democrats Peel off and stymied loads of progress (Manchin, Sinema etc).

We need enough room for the wolves in sheep's clothing to not make a (D)ifference in the progress we need to shut down authoritarianism.

The supreme court being public enemy #1 means we need everything else to be operating seamlessly to be able to prevent every single goal for project 2025 line by line immediately and permanently.

Undoing regulatory capture will also be a monumental feat, as will reforming media's ability to platform lies and disinformation that are objectively false.

Huge fucking task list and we haven't even talked about running the actual country yet. We're gonna need one hell of a blue wave to drown the fascists and drain the swamp.

Wtaf is going on in the US lately.

Looking at breaking up Google

Going after Visa for monopolizing debit markets

TD slapped with a penalty worth more than the crime (for the first time ever?)

Going after market manipulators

I've never seen the law applied to the wealthy in a way that might actually influence future behaviour (and not for the worst??!)

Killing education is definitely a big part of it, but controlling every news source in huge areas and pumping outright lies and disinformation 24/7 can eventually break down anyone living in that environment.

These people desperately cling to hierarchy. Bad people go to jail, good people don't.

These people never hear about Trump being bad, and only see him slip though the law effortlessly.

All they see is Trump being innocent and not getting in trouble at all, ever, for anything. Half of all politics and nearly all Media hide or obfuscate Trump's insanity and incompetence.

So many voters see a president everyone they know and talk to adores, getting dragged by Democrats to no effect.

"If he was guilty he'd be in Jail, but since he's not in jail Democrats must be liars and everything Republicans say about him is true."

Easy, thoughtless conclusions that reinforce their worldview and solidify them as supremely correct.

Now, they'll certainly move the goalposts once he is in Jail, because they will also never admit they were wrong about anything because if they're wrong about Trump, they're wrong about their entire worldview and that's something they are not mentally able to do.

"All white ppl look the same!"

-NK, probably

I just showed this to my wife and she said it doesn't make any sense.

My life is this comic, It explains so much.

A Conservative is someone who can't enjoy their dinner without knowing someone else is hungry

It's literally cartoon villain level headlines of evil and some people will still play the both sides game as if its a close call.

Things like water, shade, and breaks are somehow woke, and can be added to the pile of totally normal and reasonable things that benefit nearly everyone but are now bad because the angry person on tv made this face while talking about it 😡

Right?

Going after Google AND Visa?!

Even if it's all theatrics, the Justice department hasn't really showed up to work in recent memory and this is a refreshing change from the void abyss DOJ usually haunts

Isn't this how Walmart failed in Germany?

Basically the "roadmap to success" used in other countries failed in Germany/Europe mostly because that "success" was only achievable through "human rights abuses" and "violating labor laws" that aren't troublesome in parts of the world where labour rights are neutered at every opportunity, and large portions of the population people are too impoverished to afford necessities elsewhere

Rent doubles in 2022, then eventually drops by 7% by 2024.

Doesn't sound like lower-middle classes are winning to me.

Don't get me wrong, it's trending in the correct direction (finally). But people need to push hard until either the average/median workers wages raise, or rents fall until all the costs of shelter are 30% or less of salary.

Ideally there is a strong public housing presence that heavily depresses the profitability of being a landlord.

Weird how Ohio is into it, since he's their guy and all.

1/3 of people get forced to eat shit because 1/3 of people want everyone but themselves to have to eat shit because they wrongly think they will never have to eat the shit they are voting to have literally everyone eat.

Worst of all, 1/3 of people like having their head in the sand, being unable to develop an opinion on if being force fed shit is good or bad.

Probably the same mentality as taxes/healthcare

It's always "I shouldn't have to pay for everyone else's healthcare 🤬🤬🤬"

But never "everyone pays less than they already are into healthcare and the actual service becomes free for everyone but wealthy people don't make billions of dollars off your need to live"

Technically, ovulation without fertilization would be the benchmark.

Also, you probably can't miscarry. Which happens 10-15% of the time on average, and is much higher for some individuals.

These people are out to lunch. How stupid, uneducated, and emotional could someone possibly be?

The only people who are stupider are undecided or non-voters.

This will blow back way harder on Israel than America.

Ignoring all politics, logistically this war is a rounding error in the Pentagon's budget. America can and often does absolutely anything it wants to anyone at any point in time - and the only thing stopping it is how it feels about a subject at any given moment.

Israel is tiny and surrounded by enemies who they are pissing off.

For the record I am entirely opposed to Israel committing genocide and America funding it.

I don't particularly think his supporters matter, as they are mostly sheep and not one of the main facisim roots.

It's the fact that more than half of America's entire media apparatus is entirely behind Trump.

They dominate airwaves and have entire control over several local information ecosystems allowing them to brainwash entire populations with wall-to-wall propaganda that is completely aligned in its message of refuting and obfuscation of reality.

Regardless if the people are racist, scared, simple minded, trained to blindly accept specific authority or whatever, is mostly irrelevant in a society with journalistic integrity, and a non-corporate/private interest owned media.

It's no surprise that some people believe outrageous, impossible, contradictory, claims when every reality authority available to you exclusively tells you coordinated lies.

Paying workers more is inflationary, but raising the cost of goods because you control the supply chain is "business"

Basically, raising product costs to cover increased labour costs are bad because actual workers are getting that money instead of the wealthy capital class.

I wish people understood boycotting more. Sure 6 companies own everything, but remember when the cost of a barrel of oil went significantly negative because people weren't driving for 2 weeks?

If people collectively decided they didn't want to buy anything but the absolute necessary staples for a few months there would be an absolute catastrophe in the supply chain and they'd be forced to lower prices significantly.

They may not lower prices forever, but modern business is built entirely on supply chain logistics. If people stop buying anything, or buy things exclusively to return them we would see some serious changes

Yeah, but you put a quarter in their shopping carts guys! What an organized and crime free society guys.

Their subway is super clean guys we can't compete with freedom like that guys.

Guys, Tucker said groceries are cheaper than America, guys. We've been duped into thinking life is OK guys. But also lowering prices in America is also communism guys. Russia has literally the least communist history guys, America is the real Marxist guys.

Trust me guys, American freedom has nothing on Ruzzian freedom guys. All of the benefits with literally 0 drawbacks guys, it's insane how little consequences there are to living in Ruzzia guys.

There's nothing more free than a brutally oppressive police state run by a dictator guys, it's the secret recipe for freedom guys. Trust me bro.

I'm pretty sure religious groups think every other group is as focused and dedicated to conversation as they are.

If they were left alone in a room with a child (or anyone really), their immediate action would be to determine how Christian the child is, test and ensure their faith is all consuming, or immediately begin the conversion process if they aren't already their personal brand of Christian.

They assume this is absolutely normal, expected behaviour. so any group that is different from them, must be doing the exact same thing, but with other idealogies.

Like how they hate Islam and Sharia law while endorsing 99% of Sharia law practices under a different name. Or they think every gay person has a gay agenda and needs to make every child gay because religion knows children are the easiest to manipulate.

They are obsessed with someone else being a groomer while being the most organized and dedicated groomers on the planet.
