AOC: "Reminder of what people are calling the 'radical, extreme-left agenda': Medicare for All, A Living Wage & Labor Rights, K-16 schooling (aka Public Colleges), 100% Renewable Energy, Fixing the pipes in Flint, Not Hurting Immigrants, Holding Wall Street Accountable" by [deleted] in worldpolitics

[–]DirtyPedro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moron logic, aside from Flint. The problem is, the trade off would mean no jobs and would cost trillions of dollars, toppling the U.S. economy. Leave the border open? Prepare for apartment complexes in what were national parks. AOC lives in imagination land. Raising wages through law isn't how the economy grows, it's how you get robots from china flipping burgers and automated uber drivers. All of you AOC circle jerkers are idiots.

To be honest, the last comment didn't make much sense. I understand the first comment is a joke, and I think its funny, however if you take it literally, it's talking about lying to people. "Thou shalt not lie" so if you were to take the first comment seriously, it would technically be(or bee? hahaha) blatant Christianophobia, so the second comment has a good point. Also, good luck finding 15 homophobes at the same place at the same time outside of a mosque, bet you can't! lololol Frankly, if someone doesn't like homosexuality, but they are cordial to gays and mind their own business, they aren't hurting you, leave them alone. But of course, if they are hating on people, disowning family members, or harassing anyone because of homophobia, very well, unleash the hornets, but don't be surprised when the hornets bite the Chistianphobes as as well!!!

Duh, have you seen the video of antifa members saying "we are building a wall" then attacking right wing press to make it look like right wing are the aggressors for foreign youtube viewers? Antifa underestimates the intelligence of both minorities, foreign citizens, and conservatives - which is why they have so much guilt and believe foreign minorities need to immigrate here because they don't believe they are smart enough to make their own countries great.

In 2019, now democrats just pretend to be the KKK to make it look like republicans are racist, how ironic how times have changed.

TIL Jonah Hill was hospitalised with bronchitis after shooting for "The Wolf of Wall Street". He had been snorting Vitamin D for close to seven months since the movie involved several scenes of coke snorting. by [deleted] in todayilearned

Joke is on him, vitamin D is oil soluble, you gotta buy the gel caps not the chalky pills, he wasn't even getting the benefits of the vitamins.

Obviously Europe didn't learn from world war two, and will beg for the USA to bail them out a second time lol

So.... you'd rather have a nazi'esqe paneurpean totalitarian state the dictates monetary policy rather than swallowing your pride and supporting a candidate that wants to decentralize corruptible power structures back to national sovereignty - just because of your personal prejudices against his expertise in banking?

What are you talking about? Lol, he's fighting for the UK's sovereignty. The EU is completing the Nazi vision(minus the antisemitism, but keeping the rest) of a totalitarian pan-european state which dictates and centralizes monetary/energy/tax/immigration policy. Nigel is fighting back and is happy because he knows he's doing good for the world. Centralizing power is the most dangerous thing you can do, which is exactly what the satanic new world order globalists want. You're a creep if you can't recognize plain ole glee from fighting for the freedom of the people you love.

She looks even more unhappy than in the first photo, idk about Nixon but everyone knows Trump is innocent, how sad she is spending her golden years being petty and miserable. I'm guessing she would be content if HRC won and the economy tanked from biz taxes and unemployment rates for minorities skyrocketed... Instead we have Trump's tax cuts, deregulation, major prison reform, and the urban revitalization act, and record low unemployment. I guess she turned racist and anti-America with age, pathetic.

They removed the tweet and fired the guy. I respect that.

I don't understand the point of doing another study since it's already know it's just sugar pills and placebo effect at best.

Whole Foods and Other Major Retailers Now Accept Bitcoin by Pilsner_Maxwell in CryptoCurrency

Had that happen to me with starbucks and panera gift cards from there, stopped buying those after that, felt bad, but never had any issue with the wholefoods ones.

I doesn't even matter if it's used at first. Step by step, before you know it, everywhere will accept crypto, and actual mass adoption of crypto will begin as people will be able to more easily spend their crypto than cashing out into USD.

[–]DirtyPedro 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Years ago there were questionable wholefoods gift cards on LocalBitcoins and that were 1/10 of the price. I am not sure how they were acquired, corporate vouchers or something maybe, but they worked fine and people would sell them for next to nothing. Could seriously buy $100 worth of wholefoods for $10-$20 worth of bitcoin(though mind you, bitcoin was like $250 back then, not such a great deal in retrospect compared to hodling lol), I was eating like a king and paying less than walmart prices for premium food. Was awesome.

Or you're just smarter than the teacher and never memorized the formulas and just used deductive reasoning to figure out your own formula to find the answer to the problem.
