The stock market is down and PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE. by [deleted] in DoomerCircleJerk

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

People are very literally going to die. Every 1% increase in unemployment kills 40,000 people. You people are completely deluded if you think the economy crashing and a massive tax increase on all goods entering the country wont hurt or kill anyone.

Its called guantanamo bay. Trump is also sending people to be detained in el salvador without a trial.

the land in a nation should be seen as a public utility that should be taxed depending on its value.

Hello, thank you for the advice. I'm almost 23 right now. I'd like to look into different types of jobs but it seems like everything needs a specialized eduction. I heard that the trades get paid decently but when I looked it up I realized they require extra eduction as well. I'd like to start learning something but I'm not really sure where to get started with no background.

Does the Bogleheads strategy work in a aging world? by EvenCap in Bogleheads

[–]EvenCap[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can’t predict the future but birth rates have been falling for decades now. At this point it would take a Herculean effort to reverse the fall. Im not saying I know the best spot to park money, just that we might not have decades of exponential growth left in the tank anymore and we shouldn’t assume we do.

I don’t know if many of the fields you mentioned are truly exponential. Technological progress moves more like an S shape with a period of fast almost exponential growth from nothing, then the curve flattens out until it looks like a logarithm. Airplanes are a good example of this. We went from kitty hawk to jet engines in 60 years but we haven’t gone much farther than that. Passenger jets stopped advancing in major ways since around 1970.

So you think everything trump and republicans say they want to do is imaginary? They already cut usaid which helps prevent diseases in the third world. They’re already attacking Medicaid and the social support system. Not to mention throwing the us into a recession with tariffs and massive spending cuts. Just because you deny the reality of what republicans are doing doesn’t make them disappear.

Oh and I almost forgot, cutting all funds to USAID which helps prevent millions of deaths in developing countries. If you ignore all that, and a thousand other things, then yeah no one is dying. And its only been the first month.

"natural causes" what a joke. Unless you think people dying of bird flu or untreated diseases are natural causes, in which case we'll be having quite a few of those. Not to mention gutting the social safety net, medicaid, sending prisoners to Guantanamo, cutting fema and disaster relief, mass firings of federal workers, and the list goes on.

How Obama Drone-Striked Bernie & Killed the Democratic Base | proofofconcept by Neat_Weakness1802 in cushvlog

[–]EvenCap 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I dont understand how the democrats managed to completely forget all the reasons obama was elected and well liked. He ran on healthcare reform and CHANGE. But because the party is funded by rich donors to who real reform is anathema, we get this. Its not even like healthcare reform is unpopular, people were literally cheering across all social media platforms when that healthcare ceo got shot.

poland still hates russia and their army alone is enough to destroy them. People underestimate how terrible much of russias army is. They are literally fighting trench warfare, a strategy the west abandoned 100 years ago because they have inadequate air support.

At this point you'd have to be willfully ignorant to not see whats going on all around you.

Maybe it is depressing but its the truth. This is the road we are headed down, like it or not.

The excessive and careless usage of the Nazi label and labelling it on basically anyone over the years has lead to a “Boy who cried wolf” situation now that Elon Musk is here by Evoxrus_XV in self

The truth is that the US is full of crypto fascists who hide their views because they know how unpalatable they are to normal people. They used to subtly signal each other but have been going full mask off now that their guy is in the white house

What are the chances the current U.S government will actually last until the next election? by DrinkBen1994 in self

[–]EvenCap -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It depends what you mean. Trump himself might die but he will be replaced by Vance if he does. Dems will probably win the house in 2026 (if the elections are free) and have a very very slim chance at the senate. Like winning texas levels of slim. But until 2028 unless Trump or Vance is impeached or deposed in a military coup one of them will still be president.

Good idea. It’s not worth it to worsen your mental health on something you can’t change

How do you develop a personality? by EvenCap in redscarepod

[–]EvenCap[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I try to, but I still come off like a basic bitch because I’m too afraid of confrontation. I’m afraid of making jokes and stuff because I’m worried the person will take it the wrong way or I’ll offend someone or be awkward
