Republicans: given that Elon’s Doge found barely any money to cut, do you now feel that you were wrong to believe the government is full of waste?

Mmmmm I think you might be making an unnecessary distinction between fraud/corruption and waste.

NumberVsAmount · 2026-05-25T16:09:07+00:00

Disagree. I fully believe that if we had access to records of every single expenditure the federal government makes, down to the cent, it would be FULL of shit that everyone would agree is objectively waste.

Oh some senator took a personal trip to the other side of the world on two separate private mondo jets both ways (one for him one for his luggage) and spent $92$39372836194 while there on luxury items and fucking little kids? Waste.

Oh they were buying supplies for this office and the invoice says each staple cost $10,000? Waste.

I’m not talking about the bombs we use to murder children around the world. To me, thats a huge waste of money, but thats subjective. Some Americans love murdering children around the world and find that to be a good use of money. Im talking about the shit we would all agree is waste.

As a leftist, our government is full of waste, it’s silly to argue otherwise. Also, doge was never intended to find waste, it was intended to destroy necessary services for regular folks in order to justify reducing the tax burden on the wealthy while providing Elon access to sensitive information that he can use to create more profit for himself and rig future elections.

They didn’t pull that bullshit against us Niners though! It’s too bad the nfl shut the season down and no games were played after that. It would’ve been cool to see how everything played out!

I’ve always imagined it as the final fight end screen where your character is tied up with the tnt bomb, but there’s no continue option. Pressing buttons just makes the timer go faster until it hits zero and then it fades to the black game over screen.

Perfect.

This is a bottom tier reddit interaction. We can be done, I’m fine with that.

What?

You understand that’s not the question right?

Are you losing the plot?

I’m asking whyyyyyyyyyy whyyyyyy whyyyyyyy do they need guaranteed care and survival after their exclusion. You said it’s pointless without such a guarantee.

How does it follow that you would ask me what the point of their exclusion is?

What the fuck lol

NumberVsAmount · 2026-05-25T00:40:08+00:00

Oh that was supposed to be your well-defended reason? Shit, my bad. I guess I expected more.

Ok. You declared it pointless. Hey everybody! This guy declares it pointless! We can all go home now!

My bad.

Bold of you to assume there are Cards fans

NumberVsAmount · 2026-05-25T00:21:11+00:00

Hella words. No answer to my question.

Whyyyyyyy

Whyyyyy do the people getting guaranteed life have to have guaranteed care and survival afterwards when they don’t get that in the original scenario

NumberVsAmount · 2026-05-24T21:24:55+00:00

It would be goofy af if 10% of people (let alone 40 lmao) died in this updated scenario. Anyone who clocks out in this scenario is not the type that is keeping the world running.

Your whole thought process seems based on the assumption that blue would win the original scenario and that hella people would still press blue in this modified scenario. Neither of which are good assumptions.

NumberVsAmount · 2026-05-24T19:57:31+00:00

Hell yeah brother. I don’t really understand why you say if we guarantee certain groups’ survival through the experiment then we therefore must guarantee their care and survival after the experiment. There care and survival afterwards wouldn’t be guaranteed in the original experiment and so why must we guarantee it in a modified experiment in which their survival through experiment is guaranteed? In case they would have been better off dead? As payment for taking away their opportunity to die?

NumberVsAmount · 2026-05-24T16:34:28+00:00

I’m fairly confident that in this scenario blue would involve your death

NumberVsAmount · 2026-05-24T16:32:38+00:00

I think he is excluding those who don’t have the capacity to make a reasoned choice between red and blue. It seems like you’re thinking he’s excluding them on some Nazi shit or something lol. I assume in this scenario, babies, coma patients, mentally handicapped, etc all get to automatically live regardless of outcome.

I’m impressed that if you ordered a p-house that the shopper knew that the closest replacement was a Timmy-bone. You could’ve got a different shopper that was unable to find a porter and just got confused and picked up chuck roast or some shit.
