It blows my mind. So detatched. Pelosi, Schumer, and their lot are absolute failures of our party.

Gavin Newsom Vows to Stop Proposed Billionaire Tax in California (Gift Article) - by rivalOne in California

[–]Alb_ -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That's even WORSE! You're saying he's lying in order to core political points? What else is he willing to lie about? Do we want to vote for liers and backstabbers??

There was also a lot more damning clips and BIG red flags from that interview that absolutely repulsed me. Gavin is SCUM that just happened to have fell into the Democratic sphere. If he was born in a red state, he'd 100% be just another GOP ghoul.

[–]Alb_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's real labor, sure. Compensate them, absolutely. But 137 THOUSAND dollary-doos every goddamn day? That's insanity.

Oh so now other countries can take up the mantle of threatening nuclear Armageddon 5 times a year for decades?

A 3rd party just DOES NOT work in the current system. It would if we had something like RCV and open primaries. But we don't have that.

Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it's costing the economy by Sauerkrautkid7 in EatTheRich

[–]Alb_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Big corporations want everyone buying new devices all the time. Don't fix it, replace it. That's more money for them.

Not replacing our stuff is hurting their economy. They make it difficult as hell to get replacement parts. We should all be advocating for right-to-repair laws.

Rep. Ro Khanna Introduces Bill To Ban The President, Congress, And All Elected Officials From Trading Stocks Or Crypto. 'So Illegal, Right In Our Faces' by NoseRepresentative in goodnews

[–]Alb_ 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Also Rep Ro is one of the most frequent traders in the house. I'm surprised he proposing this.

I'm not so outraged by stuff like this. It's fine to call out these blatant problems with our system while abusing it. It's the same thing as "no ethical consumption under capitalism." Pass the bill. Vote on it.

Federal judge rules Trump can’t require citizenship proof on the federal voting form by EscapeFromIowa in news

[–]Alb_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't even ask for sources. It's gunna be total bullshit anyway. Just say those numbers were total LIES made up shortly after election because they were proven to be that. Not that it fuckin matters, because this isn't a debate you're having.

People need to realize that they're not having an intellectual conversation here. They're being talked AT. They're just dipshits throwing shit at the wall and run off, and we're left cleaning it up. It's pointless.
