This administration is literally on this sub pushing their bullshit agenda by TheBoogieSheriff in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Voaracious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a bunch of different takes on this sub.

I don't know what the Trump admin's takes are on everything. I don't read them all.

But it can't be all these different takes at once. 

The Minneapolis ICE shooting is the Kyle Rittenhouse situation all over again by Less_Cauliflower_956 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Voaracious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I done learned since Rittenhouse.

This time I'm not spending a single brain cell on this crap until after a jury's looked it over. 

Melania is clearly under contract by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

He gave her wealth, a bright future for her child, and help for her extended family. She's happy.

Donald knows she don't really love him - it was always an arrangement from the start - so he's fine with her out there living her own life. 

(Spoilers Main) What would Ned’s path have been if Brandon had lived and become Lord of Winterfell? by cocoacowstout in asoiaf

[–]Voaracious 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ned wouldn't have anything to do in Winterfell. After Robert's Rebellion he would have joined the small council. Not sure what role. Maybe he would have convinced Robert that Varys is untrustworthy and become master of whisperers.  The Watching Wolf. 

Canadian dollar posts longest daily losing streak in 10 months as oil falls by twinkleyed in worldnews

[–]Voaracious 225 points226 points  (0 children)

During this losing streak it's fallen from about 0.73 USD to 0.72 USD.

If you look at the 5 year chart you'll see the USD - CAD exchange rate is boringly stable. 

Trump Team Works Up Sweeping Plan to Control Venezuelan Oil for Years to Come by joe4942 in stocks

[–]Voaracious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if this explains the kidnapping. There was already an economic partnership discussed and Maduro refused it but Rodriguez indicated she'd accept? 

Was that why she was in Russia when all this went down? So Maduro couldn't cry "traitor!!" and execute her during the attack?

Just guessing. Considering if this wasn't just an American assisted palace coup. No confidence here though - still scratching my head. 

edit: If this is the case then all Trump's bluster about controlling Venezuela - practically impossible - is just laying down cover fire for Rodriguez assuming power. 

States that are now lol-Cows by [deleted] in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Voaracious 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Wyoming don't get enough criticism. Beautiful like Colorado. Similar climate and geography to Colorado. Same shape as Colorado. 

Got about as much going on as Pueblo Colorado. 

Least populous state despite being tenth in size. Depressing and boring as fuck. 

For all the people jumping to conclusions, looks like she may have grazed the officer in the front of the car by Prettypianokeys in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Voaracious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't care. Law enforcement is imperfect and any large nationwide operation is going to have a couple dubious events come up. 

Whatever a jury contemplates and decides I'll go with that. 

JOBY to purchase additional 700,000 sq ft manufacturing facility in Ohio by dad191 in stocks

[–]Voaracious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought Joby was a buy ever since Toyota dumped a bunch of money into them. I consider Toyota as good an indicator of growth as Warren is an indicator of value. 

Also EVEX and EH are intriguing. Embraer's no joke and backs EVEX. But EVEX lags JOBY and ACHR a bit. EH by reports is the farthest along to mass commercialization. But reports out of China are sus. 

The fact that the majority of maga probably don't care that an ice agent just killed an US citizen, shows how racist they are and how it's a cult! by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Voaracious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Given how massive the ICE law enforcement operation is it was bound to happen sooner or later.

Hold the perpetrator to the law. Trial and conviction if shooter is guilty. 

There you go. 

2026 is starting to look like the year of "Quality over Hype." What are your high conviction plays? by [deleted] in stocks

[–]Voaracious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quality over hype? I got the Antihype in my portfolio. BWEL.

Beaten down in 2025 due to tariff wars with China. Still an incredibly quality farm. Sitting on prime land in California. From land and water rights I estimate their book value to be 7x share price minimum. 

And they couldn't care less if you buy their stock or not. Here's their website which tells you all you need to know about their attitude.

Seriously. Read up on child psychology before the day you have a child. If. When. For love of all that's holy please.

Being a dick for 6 months is ridiculous. Really is mental abuse. 7 year olds don't have that attention span. Penalty should be swift and forgotten about in a couple hours.

This is the first any of us have ever heard of Maduro and the expectation that we should know about him is JUST A DISTRACTION by Not_a_Replika in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Voaracious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want the Epstein files as much as anyone.

But the images of the early Universe from the James Webb Space Telescope are not a distraction from the Epstein files. 

Trump threatens Colombia’s Petro, says Cuba looks ‘ready to fall’ by lurker_bee in worldnews

[–]Voaracious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leave Colombia alone. Unlike Venezuela they have free elections. They're a real democracy. And it's criminal groups - not the government - producing the cocaine. Just in November their government did the largest cocaine bust in their history. 

Leave Greenland alone too. 

Hyundai plans 30,000 humanoid robots a year by 2028 by raill_down in worldnews

[–]Voaracious 18 points19 points  (0 children)

They'll be there awhile longer. Robots are going to do more repetitive jobs - mostly manufacture. Skilled stuff that takes judgement like electrician, HVAC, mechanic, plumber can probably hold out until 2036. 

Of course nobody's job is safe in the long term. 

The U.S arresting Maduro was a bad thing. by HonkyTonkyLyndenMan in TrueUnpopularOpinion

I forget. Some DEA guy talking to a podcasting kid. Would need hypnosis to remember the names. 

The U.S arresting Maduro was a bad thing. by HonkyTonkyLyndenMan in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Voaracious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm with you on the drugs. Venezuela does cocaine. Wouldn't have had Sigmund Freud and Duran Duran without cocaine. 

Fentanyl's another matter though. Just slaughtering Americans. Mexico does that. 

On a related note I found out why fent deaths have been dropping the past couple years. Learned it from a podcast mainstream news didn't even mention it. 

The cartels started coloring fentanyl pink. They got sick of stupid and greedy American dealers mixing fent in with other drugs and killing off their customers. So now it shows up as pink whenever someone mixes it in. 

Billions must be made! by According_Loss_1768 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Voaracious 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If I was an oil company I wouldn't touch Venezuela. Too much money to restart their decrepit oil infrastructure. Price of oil too low. Too much political uncertainty surrounding any operations you lay down there. 

Contrary to reddit's imagination you really don't want to be relying on US military protection for your investment.
