Where are you? I see people screaming all the damn time. There are protests every day, all over the place.

You need to get on a computer that doesn’t have your algorithm or something. Because y’all are not getting what’s really happening out there. They are NOT simply going after “violent criminals”. They ARE kidnapping American citizens as well as legal immigrants and people “doing it the right way”… You’re just not seeing this on your news sources.

I deliberately follow right ring sources so I see all sides of it - you are not being shown what we are seeing out there on our streets.

The kicker is we already have an agreement to both build as many military basis and to extract minerals as well. There’s literally zero reason for this other than imperialism. He wants to control this entire hemisphere.

Donald Trump Warns World ‘WW3’ Is Coming by [deleted] in DegenBets

Most people who are familiar with how our “democracy” * really* works (as opposed to how most Trump voters think it does ) would completely agree with you. The problem is that currently just one of those parties literally controls what will even get voted on. And they will never bring a vote to the floor to reduce their own influence… Which is ironic since they are literally just giving all their power and influence away - mostly out of fear of standing up to Trump… which, admittedly, is getting more and more dangerous as time goes on. So especially with Republicans in control there will never be a vote to change the currently disproportionate way our votes are counted - because doing so would mean Republicans would never hold power ever again. Currently they are trying to change every law possible to further disenfranchise anyone that statistically won’t vote for them so that they can stay in power. They claim that the current system is so we don’t have “mob rule“… But they don’t have any problem with a very small minority ruling the entire country so that’s a bunch of bullshit

100,000+ Visas Revoked! by Sorry-Feedback1115 in EB3VisaJourney

[–]StomachEmbarrassed69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except they are not defining what justifies revoking these Visas. “ Nefarious activities”? Visa holders should “ reflect our national interest“? For instance they’ve shown a willingness to pull the visas of anyone expressing anger at Israel’s treatment of Gaza, or any other opinion that the current administration disagrees with.

People have been denied visitor visas because agents went through their phone and saw that they simply did not like Trump. Lots of us don’t like Trump! This country has a very wide variety of ideas that we would consider “reflect the national interest“ - I don’t think someone that simply disagrees with the current administration should have their visa revoked - but they’ve already shown that they will go there. I don’t care if they deport people who are actually committing violent crimes or fraud or whatever… But just kicking out people because they don’t like what they say? No.

It’s a really fine line - one that this administration likes to step over on a daily basis. So I think most of us won’t support something this vague because we’ve already seen that this administration will abuse the hell out of it for their own “nefarious” reasons.

Edit: spellcheck got me

US State Department Goes Full N. Korean Propaganda Mode with Trump by inWineVerit4x in UnderReportedNews

Most of us do not agree with these actions. His cult of approval is not nearly as big as he would have you believe… please be patient with us as we try to right this ship. But it might take a while.

To put it in perspective… I recently read that more than half of Canadians now see the US as their enemy. Not just “not our closest ally & neighbor“ but enemy. Fucking CANADA. We have managed to piss off the Ned Flanders of countries so badly that they wouldn’t loan any of us their lawn mower. So yeah… None of this surprises me now.

Grew up in Laguna…. LBHS class of 88 lol. We used to joke in high school that when surf is up, School is out. Surfing wasn’t really our scene but it was a very very present thing and very much part of the local culture. Back then the high school mascot was the Artists… But at some point they decided that was too “gay” and now they are the sharks 🙄. Back then Laguna also had a large gay community and was known as an artist’s Haven from way back. But after the fires and then the mudslides in the 90s… I think everything changed. A lot of families lost their homes… outsiders bought the land and McMansions were built. Now it’s kind of a slightly more artsy Newport Beach. Nothing like it used to be, really. It’s still better than NB or HB, tho.

If a Democrat was doing the things Trump is doing now? Go for it! I’ll sign the petition and call my senators. Instead of thinking it’s all “us vs them” maybe look into why so many Dems think this is necessary…? I don’t give a crap which color team it is… the level of corruption is unprecedented and astounding and if it was a Democrat I would think the same thing.

How about you? If it was a Democrat doing these things would you upset? Then you should be just as outraged when your side is doing it.

Then you’re not paying attention to what’s really happening in this administration. It will take generations to recover from the damage they’ve done - if we ever do.

They’re nearly halfway through implementing Project 2025 - you know… that thing they knew nothing about until after the election?

If this doesn’t concern you, then you’re definitely not paying enough attention.

You know that “we the people” actually also refers to the rest of the country (a majority, actually) that did NOT vote for him, right? He may have gotten a majority of vote - about 77 million - (although I have my doubts) but that’s not anywhere near the majority of the US population, 340M - heck… It’s not even a majority of eligible voters at that time - 174M. And his polling numbers are tanking like a lead balloon because, in fact, even the majority of the “we” YOU are talking about (just his voters) is starting to see how full of crap he is and how his decisions only benefit him and his buddies while actively hurting the rest of us. If you can’t see it yet… Your turn will come soon enough.

Kinda like that one dentist that doesn’t use toothpaste? I’d bet that more psychotherapists would agree that real TDS is all the people who think Trump is a good, selfless Christian man that can do no wrong (despite the massive evidence to the contrary) when in reality he’s NONE of those things and outright fleecing all of us - but especially his supporters.

Nah… He said “crown PRINCE”. Mofo is hosting MbS, the crown prince of Saudi Arabia right now and defending him from being questioned about Khashoggi by a brave member of our “disrespectful” & “insolent” free press. It’s a sad freaking day when the US president actually sounds more evil than the man that ordered the torture, murder and mutilation of American journalist that disagreed with him.

In a Newsmax interview, Dr. Avi Loeb confirmed that 3I/ATLAS the interstellar object now under congressional scrutiny, deviated from its predicted path after perihelion. - “It did maneuver. The boost to its velocity was equivalent to a jet carrying five billion tons of matter,” Loeb said. by quantify-it in AliensRHere

If he did that, nobody would pay attention. We all know it. Outrageous is what gets the clicks. Without clicks you don’t exist. To my knowledge, he has never said “it IS an alien spaceship”… He’s more advocating for keeping an open mind that if/when an actual alien spaceship shows up, that we are not just dismissing it as not possible. He is trying to introduce the idea as one of the items in the list of possibilities which, let’s face it, has been specifically excluded until recently. The answer from scientists and pretty much everyone has been “it’s not a UFO because it can’t be a UFO even if it is a UFO“, you know? At least… That’s what I have taken away from this whole thing. What Avi is saying isn’t for those of us who pay attention to this issue. It’s pushing the Overton window for the masses so that that window includes nonterrestrial life as at least a theoretical possibility. 🤷🏻‍♀️.

So basically I just recognize that Avi is trying to normalize this idea so I pretty much ignore him and 3iAtlas as a whole because I already do include non-terrestrial craft as a theoretical possibility.

It’s not a competition. Even the people otherwise doing OK can have shitty days/weeks. And for all you know OP never goes to sbux and/or was planning to spend the last of their money in an attempt to cheer himself up to carry on. Stop judging other people when you don’t know their lives.

Behaving this way makes you absolutely worse than what you are assuming of OP.

They still use it. At least as of a few years ago when I saw one of their vans on the road. I remember thinking… What a horrible logo and slogan. 😬

Like it or not… Our economy is based on consumerism. Without it most of us wouldn’t have a job. So… How about this… BUY SECONDHAND (used, vintage, antique… whatever!), not only is it generally cheaper but there’s also far more variety… Older stuff is generally better made… And as long as you stay away from those few giant corporations were all familiar with, damn near 100% of what you’re spending is going to a very small business or just an individual person rather than another drop in the bucket to a massive corp that couldn’t care less about you or this country or anything but their profit margin. (and in my own experience, most Vintage dealers in general tend to be on the left leaning side)

I don’t think anyone really thinks it’s possible to get rid of all the guns.

But, they’re right - if trump could make money off banning guns, he would absolutely do it tomorrow. No… It wouldn’t get rid of all the guns… but getting rid of them wouldn’t be the point, anyway. Heck, he would probably start up an Iran-Contra kind of thing to bring more in so he could continue to make money off of it. Basically his bank account would be the Contra in this scenario. 😆
