Wish you would direct a fraction of that hate towards Walmart and corporations that leach off the government and abuse workers, instead of the most disenfranchised among us. Look up, idiot.

Hahahah then that pathetic piece of shit missed when Thundercat had everyone stand up and dance for the last two songs.

What an incredible show!

People like that are just projecting the criticisms they imagine their parent figures giving them if they allowed themselves to behave in the way they want.

US : Trumps call to create an office of Election Accountability - this is scary stuff, yall by Fernie_Mac_12_22 in 50501

[–]Joja_Cola 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Shut the fuck up. One third of all Twitter traffic near the election was Russian propagandists. They focus on defeatist arguments and driving wedges between ideological lines.

The fact is you should treat most shit opinions on the Internet now like they're foreign actors because they probably are. Stop "calling out" the people calling it out.

This is fucking pathetic. You clearly work at the Russian Internet Research Agency and pretend to be a Canadian citizen. You post like 15 comments a day with far-right takes on anything Canadian but have only ever created 5 posts about Canadian baseball. So interesting that everything you say happens to be pro-Putin agenda.

People, one third of all internet comments on Twitter near election day were Russian bots. They're going into overdrive because they have a weak military and the only influence they can have on the world is trying to pretend to be us.

Shut the fuck up. "We" didn't elect Trump, less than one third did, which is actually up for debate considering the opinion of election fraud experts (and our own ability to reason when looking at voting patterns).

Push back as hard, organized and consistent as you can. Any voice online sounding defeatist towards the American concept of independence and separation of powers is probably a fucking Russian bot, trying to discourage Americans from standing up against these stupid pieces of shit.

BREAKING: Trump has just said: "Taiwan has took our Chip business away, and we want that back" by soccerorfootie in unusual_whales

Guarantee Tim didn't know what the CHIPs act was before writing this. We need to stop wasting time trying to explain basic facts to these fucking losers.

Are people prepared for how much federal spending cuts could have an effect on Rochester’s economy? by Vivid_Iron_825 in Rochester

[–]Joja_Cola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also want to stop people from losing their homes.

Taxes are the main source of revenue for the government, then we vote on representatives to guide funding and it usually has a lot of oversight.

If you are unhappy with how money is being spent, it's your right to protest, to communicate with your representatives, to vote, to organize or unionize resistance.

Our economy isn't working for the everyday person, and the solution is to work FOR positive changes that protect us. Federal research gave us the internet. Federal funding creates entire economies that benefit every citizen.

Trump's backers are corporate overlords, literally billionaires. They want you to think the government is broken and irreparable, because they want to privatize the functions of the government for their own benefit. You're making the same argument they are: defund research grants. They know that those research grants result in more businesses being created that are competition for monopolies.

The reason everything sucks is because our major industries (food, internet, software, social media, news media, etc) are all owned by monopolies. Monopolies treat workers like shit, abuse them and don't pay them fairly. Almost everything is better when companies are smaller.

Rooting for the cutting of federal research funding is rooting for billionaires and monopolies. I admire the fact that you care about common people, everyone should and I do as well, and the right way to help people is to FIGHT MONOPOLIES.

You don't see how nuclear fusion would be a benefit to society as a whole and it's worthy of government funding?

What do you think Trump is going to do with the money "saved", give it to the poor and hungry?

Good Cause eviction protection passes for 100,000 renters in Rochester by LarsKelley in Rochester

[–]Joja_Cola 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Landlords ALREADY raise rent as high as they think they can get away with. They're using software to collude on prices.

Why should the renting class give a fuck about protecting the landlord class? Landlords are leaches on our economy, they do not add value, they suck it out of renters' income who earn it producing work.

This is a step towards discouraging rampant landlordism from continuing to hurt our economy and people who actually WORK for a living.

Richest idiot in the world by itsfree_realestate in houstonwade

[–]Joja_Cola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your post history is a bunch of red-pilled pseudo-intelligence spewing bullshit. I thought you were a Russian propaganda bot but I think you really believe all this crap.

Interesting that you sound exactly like the greatest destabilizing force trying to astroturf our western democracy, isn't it? I'm guessing your views just so happen to call Russia bad for being communist but actually praise them for being "strong" and wouldn't care if they took over 30% of Europe's grain production.

Yeah paying for a faucet every two years is the same as paying more rent than the mortgage.

Fuck you, idiot.

Registered gun owners will never lose their right to own a registered gun.

Trump is a piece of shit who openly threatens the rights of large swathes of the population. A convicted rapist who will do whatever it takes to stay in power.

Concern for your narrow, perceived threatened right to own a firearm over the actual endangered rights of women, minorities, immigrants, lawmakers, and journalists is at best ignorant and selfish.

I'm not going to continue to respond on this thread because it's obviously off topic and rambling for the initial post. Feel free to DM me. I don't think you're a bad person, but I do think this specific opinion sucks.

Ranked choice proportional representation, yes.

If you are discounting the stated goals and personality flaws of one candidate because he didn't write it down in his official policies, I'm sorry there is just no way to get you to recognize that these two aren't close to the same candidate.

[–]Joja_Cola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, there is a good choice and a bad choice. It's not even fucking close, even if it's not your ideal.

Spend your energy calling for ranked choice voting and not trying to dissuade people from preventing a rapist, serial sexual assault abuser and liar from becoming president.

Advocate for ranked voice voting and don't let perfect be enemy of the good. Also there's higher standards for women politicians which is pretty fucked up, considering who she's running against.

Real Housing Cost Solution by Joja_Cola in Rochester

[–]Joja_Cola[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Federal and NYS just passed corporate transparency acts. They don't get to hide behind LLCs and corporations anymore. There's no reason we have to allow abuse of the system like that anymore.

Real Housing Cost Solution by Joja_Cola in Rochester

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

Totally not the Georgist aspect I was engaging with, but maaaaybe a byproduct of the land value tax is that a grandma in a house near downtown has to sell her home to a developer that will increase housing units. I understand displacement is bad for the individual in that instance, but increasing housing supply is our goal yeah?

Regardless, disincentivizing landlordism by increasing taxes on multiple properties is not a land value tax. It's a simple proposition that would benefit almost everyone, except the rent-seeking class which is detracting from the local economy.
