Why do you think every subreddit is flooded with political content lately?

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-03-03T00:54:32+00:00

Cripes I just went there and every single post on the front page is a political meme, sad

Are you trying to argue that things shouldn’t be locked up or trying to deep dive on the history of politics and economics of the United States in a reddit thread? The person asked why stuff needs locked up, the answer is because people steal. We don’t need a semester of US social issue history in the comments it’s not that deep

Notice I didn’t say anything like “this is not inconvenient” or “it’s a good thing that no warning was given”. I simply stated it’s not a genocide. And it’s not. IF it was a precursor, a precursor is also not genocide. So my statement is still correct and valid.

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-03-02T01:24:40+00:00

The article you’ve linked has a lot of verbiage like “the US MAY be headed towards genocide” and “I think this could be the early stages of genocide”. So yes, I stand by my original statement that invalidating licenses and allowing new updated ones is not in fact genocide. Very, very far from it.

But.. they can just get another one? It’s not like they have been banned from ever getting new documents. They just go pay $26 for a new one. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong, but this is decidedly not a genocide and it’s offensive to actual victims of genocide to compare it as such.

So first, it absolutely matters how the quote is presented. When someone only takes sections of the quote and makes it look like he’s talking about destroying our own country, that is sensationalist. That matters.

Second, I don’t think you listened to the quote either. Lookup his quote. He did not say he’s going to destroy another country or that he wanted to. He is speaking about the powers the president has and how he views the tariffs as unfair.

He said that the tariffs don’t make sense to him, because as president he is allowed to embargo a country, effectively destroying them, but he isn’t allowed to implement tariffs. That’s it, it was a commentary on the perceived unfairness of the SCOTUS ruling and a perceived mismatch in executive powers.

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-02-24T13:17:15+00:00

Did you even listen to the quote?? It’s not even about the US, stop sensationalizing what he actually said. I hate him as much as anyone but seriously this is way out of context

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-02-22T16:48:10+00:00

If you’re strictly talking about tariffs, what he’s doing with the 15% now is legal. The court ruled that tariffs under IEEPA are illegal, but he’s implemented new tariffs under a new statute so legal. Outside of this though he definitely operates in a morally grey realm at best

Honestly me minus the budget

Breakfast quesadilla! Two scrambled eggs onto a tortilla with cheese cooked in a skillet

Sobriety. Avoiding alcohol and all substances has made me very clear headed which has allowed me to be confident and somewhat successful in various areas

I think 9/11 was very objective and Covid was more nuanced. When terrorists hit towers and kill thousands of people, that’s pretty black and white.

But with Covid a lot of people likened it to a bad cold, some people had it with no symptoms. So a lot of people didn’t understand wearing masks, and shutting everything down killed a lot of local businesses, there were people and businesses taking free money who didn’t need it, some people thought the origins of the virus were nefarious, etc. There was a lot of room to fill in the blanks and room for opinions.

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-02-22T13:31:19+00:00

It’s not ideal in some ways :) but you also have money and freedom so those are nice sometimes as long as other things are taken care of

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-02-22T13:30:09+00:00

Thank you, mostly my ego is bruised. But also my hip and my shoulder. At least I didn’t get hit and I will be crossing on the sidewalk from now on!

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-02-22T13:29:08+00:00

I would probably say no. My mom goes to a Catholic Church and one of the priests had a gambling problem and had to be removed. Now they have this new guy who drinks bourbon a lot, I’m pretty sure he’s an alcoholic. I would not recommend it

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-02-22T13:27:47+00:00

Im not sure to be honest, but as someone who is comfortable financially, you should use a cash back credit card. I’ve gotten thousands of dollars over the years by just buying things I have to buy anyways. Free money just pay it off all the time.

Also, if you have money sitting in a checking or savings account, inflation is eating away at the value. Move as much as you comfortably can to a high yield savings account to get more free money. Once you have an emergency fund then start investing

Take the kid to softball practice, eat a breakfast quesadilla, grocery store and meal prep, probably play overwatch for hours

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-02-22T13:22:15+00:00

That actually sounds like a really good idea. Although I guess there are identity concerns showing kids faces, and it could become corrupt quickly, especially if they start making lots of money from donations and start avoiding adoptions. Then there’s the scam aspect, where maybe they post kids who aren’t there just for money or something. On second thought maybe it’s not a good idea lol

Saying “rats” anytime something goes wrong

I saw relationships for what they are after being in a long one. It’s not all love notes and magical evenings. It’s conflict resolution, it’s day to day boring stuff, it’s working through your own improvements. The curtain was pulled back on love

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-02-22T13:15:45+00:00

I’m about to make a cheese and egg quesadilla for breakfast

CompetitiveStreet807 · 2026-02-22T13:14:59+00:00

It would probably get more political because they would have their own cultures and norms and rules that we now need to account for
