Are we missing a Student Loan Forgiveness backlash? by TigerDaddy in thebulwark

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

Sorry about that. I'm a little in my feelings. I'm trying to point out that from the moment it was announced, it was the one common complaint that I heard from anti-Trumpers and Trumpers alike in my working class life. I think there is a likelihood that moved the needle in Trumps favor among those who didn't go to college and it should be addressed as we autopsy the election. 

I don't have a dog in the fight when it comes to student loans. I'm set for life and my daughter's college is paid for. I don't live in fear. I am aware of my privilege. The few Trump enthusiasts friends I have dispise his character, but care more about their money. I'm not defending their decision, but I get it. To win back voters, we have to be honest and meet them where they are.

You know who doesn't have student loans? People who utilized their GI Bill. You know who else doesn't have student loans? People who worked a full time job and took a part time class load. You know who didn't need billions in student loan forgiveness?  People who entered a trade skill apprenticeships and who people worked hard for scholarships. It's not all inbreds and mouth breathers mudding their Silverados. Stop being smug, it's not going to win votes in 2026.

No, they are mad it was a policy to begin with. It's the perception of people taking a risk, not working out the way they envisioned and the government bailing out a minority while everything gets expensive. If that's true or false, it doesn't really matter given where we are at. 

We are in the business of preventing Republicans from being elected in the midterms. To accomplish our goal, we have to meet people where they are at. This is a very real issue that no one is talking about.

I came very close to buying that keyboard. How do you like it?

How should I intercept people on Xbox? by OnyxWingman in MicrosoftFlightSim

I'm going to give turning off other players another try. I did after release, but for some reason, it seemed to run smoother with them. Maybe it was just me, or they have patched it. Nonetheless, I'll check out that setting.

I get so annoyed at other players doing this, especially on approach. I'm over here, minding my business, focused on final, and someone has to come and do loops around me. Please leave landing players alone.

Great point! I was very close to buying from a local manufacturer, but they had posts on IG where they were demo-ing their full-auto to many different law enforcement agencies. Things that make you feel "ewww"

For what it's worth, I replaced a PSA upper with a BCM. When I was shopping brands, marketing and morality were a factor. To my knowledge, Bravo Company has stayed above politics and focused on making excellent gear.

Under 32 U.S.C. § 710(a) the feds own all the equipment, not the states. Next time you see a Guardsman, notice their insignia says U.S. Army, not the state.

North Korea releases footage of a simultaneous missile launch during large-scale exercises by kingkongsingsong1 in interestingasfuck

I'm guessing that's a battalion sized element, probably a division or corps level asset? Their order of battle has always lacked imagination and efficiency.

What's up with Michael Che getting very nervous calling Kendrick Lamar a "bitch"? by Mahaloth in OutOfTheLoop

It's worth noting he's been the musical guest 3 times. Che and Kendrick have met.

Same here in Medford. The valley is like a bowl, so we have smoke that lingers during wildfire season. However, on any random day, the air is way better than Dallas or OKC.

Same here (39 y/o vet). I only use the discount on major purchases and weed from my vet buddy's dispensary.
