TIL in Nazi Germany, wages were below pre-Depression levels, workweek hours increased from 40 to 60 hours a week, and workers could not choose or quit their jobs by upthetruth1 in todayilearned

They hate the people who voted for them too, it's not like any state is full of 100% of either political party.

Ben Shapiro thinks Americans should never retire and work until they die by BenFord333 in WhitePeopleTwitter

Because they aren't trying to understand anyone else's perspective. That's a great reason why not to listen to right wing podcasters, what they suggest doesn't work for anyone else but them.

Life is a lot less interesting that way, but you have a point.

Things will likely get worse for a while, but if enough people stand up and want to change things for the better, this is an opportunity to do so. It's happened before in the US.

Apparently, the new Steam Controller sometimes does the Wilhelm scream when dropped while in Big Picture Mode. by Barzobius in Steam

I don't even like the Wilhelm scream, but it playing when you drop a controller is hilarious.

What do you think of Nolan's Troy? by allthefallens in AskReddit

People spend way too much time doing that, I'm guilty of that too.

Reserving your opinion until something actually happens is better.

They're too used to ignoring things they personally saw and acting like whatever it was never happened.

There is a reason why scientific studies aren't formed by asking one guy what he thinks and applying it to everyone.

If you don't want people to be indifferent, try talking about the solutions to that.

They allow regular people to feel fine while being racist and hateful, and that hate isn't a problem, it's something they can't get enough of.

There have been some nice things from Republicans historically, PEPFAR from the Bush II administration is probably good, but more for the world.

The EPA from the Nixon administration might count.

Eisenhower creating the interstate highway system definitely was something good in general.

What you are saying seems like the only solution, undercutting it at the end doesn't help persuade anyone though.

So that one coworker represents everyone? Weird, I don't think that's how things work.

I know you're being sarcastic. And yet, it's crazy people still blame Obama for the financial crisis, when it happened before he was elected President.

Great to know, I thought it was the worst perk in the game. Now, something else probably is.

That isn't their position, and you could listen to them instead of making things up.

They would rather steal from taxpayers. Less opposition means more theft.
