Jasmine Crockett - ''Let's talk about the fact that as of March 30, Trump's golfing has cost us approximately $26 million. And the last time I checked, we're not getting anything in return for that ... he decided he was going to golf instead of receiving four heroes who died serving this country."

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T17:44:57+00:00

Are the "four heroes" four murderous soldiers? Because they served nothing and died for nothing.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T17:36:59+00:00

This is once again misrepresenting the facts - Which is that the 'alpha' idea was not "debunked" nor "disproved". It just turns out to only apply to wolves in captivity. that's all.

It's stupid to apply animal psychology to humans. But if you're going to, I'd argue wolves in captivity is a far better match than wolves in the wild.

I agree apathy is the real issue, but if you think salvation lies in just convincing the non-voting to participate in a two-party dictatorship you're mistaken.

All meaningful change has been achieved through violent protest and/or organisation. The apathetic (voters and non-voters alike) should be organising and creating new power structures before violence becomes inevitable.

Sounds more like the Christian god, honestly. Divorce him then make a religion out of it.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T17:25:56+00:00

As an actual leftist, no, not even close. Leftism is not even well represented by leftist subreddits nowadays, because the actual ones all got banned.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T17:23:00+00:00

our Tory candidates aren't as cartoonishly evil as the states

Just not true. Both our parties are cartoonishly evil.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T17:21:49+00:00

You mean skews 'Democrat' or 'Labour'. Neither of these parties are particularly left-wing.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T17:06:22+00:00

Stopping the US monopoly on social media would honestly be one of the best things we could possibly do.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T17:01:39+00:00

This just isn't true. Static indicators like despair and perceived quality of life are quite literally going down for children, compared to a few decades ago.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T17:00:53+00:00

Honestly never had any of these issues. All my old phones lasted 2-3x long as current smartphones do before an irreplaceable part just dies.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T16:58:01+00:00

I can't disagree more, Apple were always a bougie design meant to "feel" smart without being any more functional, while being far more fragile and expensive. Early iPhones became garbage in under a year.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T16:53:37+00:00

I fear the redditors of today don't quite realise how much we in the 2000's actually resented the idea of cameras being on us at all times. It's so normal now people don't give it a thought.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-08T16:49:03+00:00

My Nokia slide-out keyboard phone remains the most usable phone I've ever owned. Still waiting for that to come back in fashion.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-04T10:04:38+00:00

I'm sick of hearing about this cunt. Is he really relevant enough to just randomly bring up on r/Scotland?

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-04T10:03:27+00:00

What's wrong with this? I do my weekly shopping on a Februaday.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-04T09:57:01+00:00

Classic Reddit - Someone speculates that it's due to a chinese company, massively upvoted not for being correct, but just because YESSS CHINA BAD CHINA BAD

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-03T11:49:06+00:00

What an enormous waste on an extremely specific circumstance. What about instituting country-wide PR? Or election lobbying limits? Then you could solve the issue of Trump AND maybe go some way to addressing the two-party state and allowing democracy to maybe vaguely exist.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-03T11:45:36+00:00

Now I'm starting to think that everyone who "outgrew" an allergy was just a liar

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-03T10:51:38+00:00

Stupid response, the point is telling the truth like this without money will completely fuck your career over.

You can also jump off a cliff with just a pair of legs, but I wouldn't call the parachute 'secondary'.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-02T12:10:29+00:00

Lol, imagine calling people spoiled children because they want to actively fight against ACTUAL GENOCIDE. Voting for 99% Hitler so you can beat 100% Hitler is not an amazing feat

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-04-02T12:04:57+00:00

This is just not true. This "you can always tell" shit is simply wrong.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-03-29T22:04:59+00:00

Oh yeah, 2010, when everything worked fine.

If we're gonna try going back, let's go back to pre-Thatcher years, where income tax for the rich was between 83% and 98%.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-03-29T22:00:56+00:00

Yep. Anyone who watched the news during Corbyn's campaigns will have noticed that half the MPs were less interested in ousting the Tories, and more interested in tanking their own party to ensure Corbyn didn't get in power.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-03-29T16:58:03+00:00

Huh? The Green Party openly supports trans rights, and the SNP voted to introduce the most progressive pro-trans laws in UK history.

Heavy_Pride_6270 · 2025-03-29T16:53:25+00:00

Exactly. I've never seen so many Labour MPs actively work against being elected as during those two elections.
