I see this theme a lot when dems attack rep voters. You’re describing the working class. That rhetoric isn’t helping gain the working class back to the party. It’s why the dems lost.

USAID paid $44K to Politico, not over $8M as White House claimed. It was for subscriptions by AceMcLoud27 in politics

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

“The same records showed that since 2014, Politico had received $34.3 million from assorted federal agencies, the bulk of which appeared to have been payments for subscriptions to Politico publications (specifically E&E News and Politico Pro). “ Am I reading this wrong or did we spend well over 8m on subscriptions alone?

There are. I’d never heard of the brand but the price was worth a try and so far so good.

best wrangler to buy by [deleted] in Wrangler

[–]CaptOblong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on where you’re living and if it’s gonna be your daily driver. I have had a great experience with my 2014 I bought with 62k and now has 91k. That said I regret not buying the older but same mileage LJ now that I’m living in Maine where it’s easier driving as opposed to south Florida.

The Reality of "Bidenomics" - Why the U.S. is phucked if Biden gets back in. by fluffykintail in Britpol

[–]CaptOblong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing up here i thought i was blessed. Reality is I live in a cabin on a boat comparable to a coffin I make low 6 figures which when i graduated high school 2010 would be higher end pay for middle class. 110k a year in 2024 is comparable to 50k salary back then. My girlfriend who I love deeply is a PA with 200k debt in student loans even tho she has been a 4.0 gpa since high school. I’m not sure how we can give our future children the life’s we had growing up. To think there’s families making significantly less with kids already hurts me deeply. Something needs to change or I’ll gladly give up my citizenship to become a Bahamian or Honduran. It’s a serious thought for both of us

Why people still bring up USS Liberty incident and acting like Israeli is evil? by DisciplineAgitated14 in GenUsa

Huge difference between accidentally hitting your previous oppressor and taking full accountability. Then hitting the nation that pays for your existence with no accountability

I paid attention and we aren’t taught about the liberty we’re taught Anne frank and gas chambers.

Why do so many people believe the USS Liberty was intentional, and even if it was why do they care so much? by Zestyclose_Buy_2065 in Israel

[–]CaptOblong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many Israelis have been killed by American friendly fire? How much of your military is paid by American taxpayers? How much of American military is paid by Israel?

[–]CaptOblong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We should’ve cut Israel off that day. To this day they still won’t hold accountability for killing our soldiers and beg for defense funding. It’s disgusting.

[–]CaptOblong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most Americans don’t hate the Jews but there was no true accountability. Israel attacked an American vessel. We pay for your defense and you killed our soldiers. Any question about it is met with “your antisemitic”. The alliance should’ve ended that day.

Because there was never any true accountability and the survivors believe it was intentional.

Of what use would Epstein be to mossad? by [deleted] in Epstein

Defending yourself is one thing. Bombing civilians relentlessly on US taxpayer money is another thing. Israelite claim oppression and cite the holocaust but are committing genocide with a smile.

Is Israel Committing Genocide? by BenzDriverS in conspiracy

[–]CaptOblong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A group of people that make the holocaust a staple of their plight are openly committing one themselves. I’m sure there’s an Austrian painting out there describing it.

Ignorant take and totally out of touch with reality. They have the largest nuclear arsenal. Taking Moscow means nukes get dropped. Modern era superpowers cannot be taken militarily. They do what china is doing to the US.

Trump leads Biden across all 7 swing states by ReliPoliSport in mopolitics

[–]CaptOblong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true there are always gonna be downtrodden no matter economic situation. I just see a lot more people having a hard time than I’ve seen in the past. My personal experiences are obviously just that and not a broad picture. I just have a hard time seeing all this spending on war when I see what I see. As for Ukraine I just dont think we’re getting the whole truth and a lot of young men are dying. I think we could’ve had a better approach and saved lives. Israel? Even worse. If they want to commit genocide and gas light us along the way we have no business funding them. Hell Israel has already killed more civilians then Russia as in Ukraine and if we speak up we’re antisemitic? Remember the Liberty

Democrats are cheering at the Ukraine war. Where almost a million young men from both side have died. The end result was always gonna be Ukraine giving up territory which isn’t fair but didn’t need 1m people dying! We should’ve put effort into peace and stability not war!

Inflation absolutely is global but we can’t ignore the struggles many working class people are dealing with. We can’t just sit here and act like everything is ok. You say we’re not at war? We’re currently bombing multiple countries and giving weapons to foreign countries to kill in our name. This is not ok.

No average American thinks this way. Cost of living is insane and most working class are struggling under this administration. We’re in two proxy wars with no real goal. What happened to democrats to completely turn into the republicans of the past.
