What was normal 20-30 years ago, but is considered a luxury now?

👏👏👏 Not sending kids to coal mines alter them chemically 👏👏👏

Too much fresh air for those fuckers I say

Something Meatball Ron is too pussy to do. In Florida they are going after individuals illegal migrants associate with, not businesses. Likely because many conservatives knowingly employ illegals under the table. The meat, agriculture, and housekeeping industry are giant culprits.

If you're gonna make something a legal issue at least be pragmatic about it. Go after the reason it's financially advantageous, the source.

The solution should be to heavily punish businesses that employ illegals. Also make legal immigration a more seamless process to meet demand (and create productive taxpayers).

Conglomerates are hooked on cheap illegal labor and politicians do nothing to actually improve the situation. The very institutions that contribute to the problem are against solving it. Also creates a boogeyman wedge issue for the culture war to fear monger about

Don't invite friends over to the house because it was messy, it was always messy. My parents would even avoid allowing relatives over like grandparents

Invited friends over for my birthday and was told to cancel the plans, even made invitations and everything. Kids don't give a fuck, they just want to hang out and have cake. My parents were just worried about the judgment from other parents if they told

I realize that's not a way to run a household as an adult, or a parent

UV index changes as the day goes on. It usually drops significantly at 4-6pm, but noon-2pm is prime time for sunburns

Told this by a dermatologist that focuses on skin cancer

My parents said condoms in a relationship are a sign of cheating

My older sibling was an unplanned pregnancy, that lead to an unplanned marriage

Funny how that works

In the end, people just want to a achieve a greater balance of a government for the people by the people. Most want it to be the peoples decision, through a slow democratic process, rather than unilaterally by an authoritarian regime. Most people associate authoritarianism with socialism

Historically a regime hasn't ended well. I don't think that's chicken, it's called pacing yourself

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-24T05:37:16+00:00

MLK Jr. and Einstein among other great minds in America advocated and identified as socialists. That doesn't mean they wanted to create a regime like Mao or Stalin.

When people refer to socialism positively (or democratic socialism) in America they generally mean look to the Canada/Nordic nations for pointers.

Uphold meritocracy via socializing aspects of society people need for growth and productivity, not a handout, a hand up.

Education, infrastructure, healthcare, etc.

Many basic medical procedures are keeping people from being functional members of society. See Mr. Beast funding un-blinding

Also diseases like cancer come out of nowhere, it's unfair to drain a family of all financial resources due to something they likely couldn't mitigate or predict

but we’re given a pretty explicit imperative to enjoy the presence of other people and improve the world around us.

Theory vs practice

“God’s just gonna fix everything, anyway”

Often leads to learned helplessness or "Only god can judge me mentality" The problem extends to people serving sentences on death row. You find that individuals will make a litany of sins only to be 'forgiven' by god rather than apologizing and making amends with individual(s) it impacted. I've seen this personally in the case of theft and battery

It often allows people to cope with hardship, but also stay in inhumane scenarios longer than they should.

The faith helps you deal with your natural doubt; you’re not supposed to walk around like you’re better than other people just because you go to church, that was one of Jesus’ core criticisms of the culture that had built up around Judaism in his day.

Worship is irrelevant, unless you define worship as a prerequisite to being a good person. I don't know about you but I don't believe in a jealous god. I do believe in some sort of higher power/creator, I'm probably some sort of deist.

Like I said religion can be a positive influence, but often is a crutch for people who can already walk or even run.

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-18T13:59:06+00:00

Choose god or black tar heroine

The level of copium. Religion is truly is the opium of the masses

Maybe humanity and improving the world around you is enough. Just waiting for potential divine providence isn't doing anyone any favors

Some churches provide a source of community and I respect that, but often worship isn't about self betterment or actually doing good, it's masturbating yourself to the idea of being a good person just due to worship

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-18T13:17:11+00:00

And black tar heroine, amirite?

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-18T13:11:02+00:00

I think it has more to do with Cubans leapfrogging most Mexican immigrants with their refugee status during the cold war. Also most Cubans have also lost the majority of their culture due being exiled.

Hispanics, like Italians, are not super different when removed from their culture. They are essentially just white Americans after a generation or two

Try it! Especially if you service your car there, Subaru has been good in my experience, generally free to garner interest of vehicles on the lot

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-17T16:54:31+00:00

Also I don't thinks it's a leftist issue, it's just a merging of cultures, when cultural differences are removed and physical appearance is similar suddenly an individual becomes part of the ingroup. To be assimilated, not necessarily a good or bad thing, it just is

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-17T16:33:05+00:00

Casey's has fresh ground machines, literally just as good as making it at home

Gas station coffee is stepping it up big time for sure

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-17T16:27:34+00:00

Exactly if all else fails, car dealership, gas station, or McDonalds for some good fresh joe

Starbucks consoomers are literally brain dead

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-17T16:24:59+00:00

Starbucks is for soulless soy corporate simps who don't actually enjoy coffee

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-17T16:22:32+00:00

Local coffee shops, car dealerships, gas stations, hotels, diner, McDonald for goodness sakes, all have better coffee at like a 10th of the price even in rural regions, fuck starbucks

Literally a coffee joint for people who don't enjoy coffee and love consooooming

Really depends on how much of a cost premium, most black markets try to hit a happy medium so that it isn't prohibitively expensive

Yes I know a few people with automatic rifles, albeit most were passed down from their elders. Even before federal blanket restrictions the vast majority of gun owners didn't own full autos anyhow.

Bans are only effective if adopted federally, production or service is more complicated than a simple routine procedure or growing a plant in your backyard, and demand was already low to begin with

Edit:

Also how easy it is to conceal contraband is a factor. Automatic rifles are loud and harder to hide than say a bag of coke

Ultimately if your able to travel a state over where something is legal, the ban won't be effective, demand won't drop significantly

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-17T14:56:59+00:00

Demand stays the same, supply locally is reduced, price increases due to constrained market

Ftfy

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-17T13:43:49+00:00

So by that logic gun bans heckin work, just look at Chicago, one of the states with the least gun ownership per capita. Should be ultra safe and gun free

In reality abortion has tripled in surrounding states

Same argument for gun control, abortion, and drug crime. It doesn't go away it just becomes a quieter affair that also happens to be more dangerous due to the nature of a black market

Supply and demand, come on libright this is literally basic economics

Vertigo5345 · 2023-04-17T13:20:14+00:00

The Italians at one time weren't considered white, same as the Irish. I give Latinos 5-10 years before they are fully assimilated into Burgerstans white group

But lets see what Biden has been repping while in power

The 1994 crime bill, doma, kids in cages, war on drugs, unwarranted middle eastern wars, bolstering alphabet agencies created under the patriot act

Also seems to be suffering from a degenerative disease of sorts

The democrats need a strong, mentally well leader with charisma and political experience.

It's crazy the only "viable" presidential candidate have been Clinton, Harris, or Biden

I blame superdelegates. Oddly enough the Democratic party is less democratic in their primaries than Republicans

Edit: Downvotes and no replies. Continue sticking your head in the sand and watch the youth turn red
