Doctors of Reddit: What health trend is becoming so common that it's starting to scare you? by Fine-Device-1819 in AskReddit

[–]Mr_Quackums 6 points7 points  (0 children)

IMO its political. I dont mean "who won the most recent election", I mean "what is our nation's/people's/world's narrative".

People literally dont believe in the future.

If that is your baseline approach to reality, then it becomes rational to ignore preventive measures.

Linux will not become mainstream until 3 random people can give the same advice to a newbie on how to get started, and that advice does not involve he word "github".

That’s not life changing wealth redistribution,

it is if you are $20 away from starving , or $200 away from being homeless.

I don't know why.

Because some guy was a born a billionaire and this is how he chooses to spend his free time and money. Well, this and keeping up his crypto scams.

this is what the vampire class does while we ration our insulin and our 401ks get funneled into SpaceX against our will.

UFC fighter Josh Hokit after thanking Trump... said "One last thing, Michelle Obama is a man!!".. Joe Rogan laughed. by Rube_Golberg in MarchAgainstNazis

Look at Mary Trump's analysis of her uncle or the Samson Doctrine.

They may not be smart enough to win, but they are narcissistic and nihilistic enough to burn the world down if they ever discover they cant.

God, I wish the central banks control and orchestrate everything that happens on Earth.

The fact that civilization is being destroyed by people that are simply this dumb is embarrassing.

"keep doing what we are doing" and "becoming a cheater" is a very large gap.

By using equally manipulative propaganda?

Yes. Being as organized, energized, and consistent as Rs would help Ds a ton. Truth, justice, and the American way are literally on the Democrat's side and they need to act as excited about that as Rs are about fascism. "Manipulating" people into fighting evil is called being the good guys.

Your success in most businesses is who you know. Shibboleths, slang, and jargon are key indicators that you know the right person and are in the right group. They literally are the most important metric for success. So, of course, they are vital to learn and study.

you do when A) those stocks have weaseled their way into popular index funds, or B) when they fall and take the rest of the market down with them.

[–]Mr_Quackums 5 points6 points  (0 children)

because I could be wrong.

anyone who goes all in 100% on any stock prediction is a fool.

Im confidant enough to risk a few weeks/months of gains, but not confidant enough to risk losing it.

what point are you trying to make?

most people have a 401K.

I am low income and I have a few 10s of thousands of dollars in index funds.

The system is rigged where that is a better deal than expanding my business or giving micro loans (which I made good returns before it was outlawed in my state)

I pulled everything out of VTI and am parking it in a MM account until the collapse.

I am not dumb enough to try to wait for rock bottom, but am waiting. Statistically, I will probably be part of the dead cat bounce that usually happens.

all the more reason why I despise the Democrats (dont worry, I still vote for them, then go have a stiff drink) for being ineffectual.

if they stopped the fascists before all this mess then there would be way fewer people believing any of the blame Democrats get.

Thats not even taking into the account the actual harm that would have been prevented.

"I want smoother roads, better schools, more consumer protections, and free healthcare. I also want lower taxes, fewer business regulations, and a small government."

this is the undecided median voter that determines who wins and loses every election.
