This has been a rough week for all of us it seems
The @GiantFood store has a $7.99 delivery fee (plus I tip them) for this kind of verbal abuse about my purchase.

Interesting to consider the broad bipolar implications of pundits. The right, smartly, tries to make people feel wealthier than they actually are. The left, smartly, tries to make people feel poorer than they actually are.
Chad lives on an island with 20 other people. Chad has all the food on the island and allows people one meal a day for their labor. The people are barely surviving, and the children are emaciated. Chad is a glutton who has massive buffets of food every day and throws away what he doesn't eat while the children starve. Is Chad a bad person?

I say smartly bc the deceptions are very self-interested, probably an extension of underlying shared themes. But it shows up quite a bit when you start seeing it in the subtext. Anyway, I think it’s also why the middle shifts a lot based on economic conditions.

British progressive types be like, ā€œI’m deeply saddened by seeing harmless protestors being sentenced for accidentally hitting a cop with a small construction appliance. This perversion of justice is emblematic of Israeli influence over our policies.ā€
Gut wrenching to see four young people jailed for direct action against an arms supplier to Israel. Years in prison for protesting to save lives in Gaza, with 'terrorism' used despite no jury convicting them of it. A truly dangerous attack on the right to protest.

The real crime is that governments will issue decades-long sentences to protestors while giving a 4th strike violent offender an 8 year sentence because his latest stabbing victim survived and only needed 3 surgeries.

They do this for very clear and rational reasons: state and city leaders want to maintain rapport and support with racial/ethnic/ideological activist factions who whip up the local poors to vote for them.

I’ve seen like 200 posts from presumably real people with various ways he should be killed or have his assets seized and like 2 posts from crypto-bot style ā€œnot financial adviceā€ accounts congratulating him I will not be gaslit into believing there’s wide-scale cheering
Watching people cheer for Elon Musk becoming the world's first trillionaire is like watching chickens campaign for KFC

Most people are fairly similar in most ways. We generally respond to incentives the same way. We exploit loopholes and preferential treatment the same way. Groups seek power in similar ways. Outcomes on social policies are pretty predictable. More predictable than stock markets.

Look okay 3 out of the 4 people didn’t crack a female cop’s spine with a sledgehammer, and the guy who did was cleared of it to prevent a rio—I mean because he had no ill intent. He thought she was a tree stump and a judge agreed.
3 of the 4 people didn’t attack the police officer and all of the 4 were cleared of violent intent. So the only disgrace here is the lie you’re telling to justify a clear miscarriage of justice & the use of anti-terror laws to justify your government’s complicity in a genocide.

Who among us hasn’t accidentally mistaken a female police officer on the ground with a tree stump? Think about that before casting stones

Human Rights twitch streamer: this image looks worse than it really is. Sure he may have hit her with a sledgehammer and fractured her spine, but I’m worried about the optics of this image. It makes it look worse than it was.
Replying to @ljj58
I’m stating he did not do so in this image, which gives a completely distorted impression of what happened

Is he saying Free Palestine, Fuck India? Either way, hilarious. Surely these men aren’t gang members, just concerned citizens. And could you ask for better immigrants? Look at how they still adhere to Covid mask preventions.

This very real Gaza journalist account just auto-liked — I mean immediately viewed and agreed with — my post within less than 2 seconds of me hitting ā€˜post’ Thanks for your support, Mo

A lot of people are talking about this real thing now. We shouldn’t discount it. I get real Star Trek vibes. Elon has already offered to impregnate one
Does anyone have any more information on these lizard people that Donald Trump was meeting with at the White House today?

I mostly agree with spending money as investments. Ideologically, I’m against govts investing in their companies. But practically, foreign states have ā€œwealth fundsā€ and they invest in our companies and reap benefits from it. Not so easy when it’s framed out, eh

Most people are just really intellectually lazy when it comes to numbers. They post bad ideas because they can’t do basic math or (more likely) don’t want to. We’re not talking about differential calc here. You just google two numbers and divide them. Easy shit.

Net worth taxes don’t work for a lot of reasons. Maybe you could do some sort of taxation on unrealized assets used as loan collateral, maybe something even more creative than that, but net worth taxation just won’t work long-term.

I’m just kind of confused. 5% of $1T is $50B, and that’s not a tax on this year’s income, it’s a person’s entire net worth (which is mostly just illiquid assets). You could pay uni, trade, and vocational tuition costs for every student in the U.S. for $50B? Not buying it
Brad, a 5% tax on Elon's trillion net worth would literally pay for free college and trade school for every American. And with the market's growth, he still would be worth over a trillion dollars! You don't think that's worth it?

5% of $1.2T is $60b. 8m students in BA/BS programs on average pay over $20k/yr, or ~$160b/yr for BA/BS degrees only. That tax could not cover even half of only US bachelor degree costs for just 1 year, excluding grad, ass., or trade degrees totaling another ~10m students. nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/i… bestcolleges.com/research/colle…

This math feels a lot like the ā€œwe can solve homelessness for $50Bā€ and ā€œwe can socialize healthcare if we cut the defense budgetā€ arguments. Sorry, but the numbers don’t agree.
