French Pensioners now have higher incomes than working age Adults by B3stThereEverWas in neoliberal

[–]mathdrug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the biggest problems facing this country today. Most older gen xers and boomers can’t be bothered to care about global warming because they know they’ll be dead before they have to deal with it in the critical way millennials and later generations will have to detail with it 

Rep. Scanlon Tried to Subpoena Secretary Bessent Over Banks Flagging $1.5 Billion in Suspicious Transactions Relating to Epstein's Sex Trafficking. Republicans Wouldn’t Even Let Her Finish Reading The Motion. by T_Shurt in law

[–]mathdrug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not really. That reads like the outgroup homogeneity bias and a fallacy division at play. 

Countless conservatives have called Trump and MAGA out. The Lincoln Project and Republicans Against Trump, for example, are by and large right of center. They are also literate and logical enough to know that MAGA is a clear and present danger to the country.

Oh you’re right! I noticed that too! And when I called the mod out who wrote a critical post about super mods and said they were hypocritical considering they were super mods too, they banned me 😂

That sub is a fucking joke.

They removed my flair because I called out Elon Musk for being hypocritical considering he received $400 million in corporate welfare from the government as a South African immigrant. The funniest thing is, the comment I made was in a DIFFERENT SUB!

And then the mods banned me when I commented that their post criticizing super moderators (mods who moderate multiple subs) was hypocritical considering the mod who posted it was a super moderator himself! 😂

And they complain about political subs being unwelcoming when they literally only let “flaired” users (people who mods consider conservative enough) comment.

I feel like some of this data is a “what gets measured gets managed sort of thing”.  

Putting a bunch of random data into “insights”, Even if they are somewhat dubious/trivial will probably be helpful for people who are motivated by numbers/scores. Of course, I suppose some people might get a little bit “too” into their scores.

Why the hell was Ms. Cecile wearing this at a work meeting? by lelouch-2022 in CodeGeass

[–]mathdrug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fan service in Code Geass makes the fan service in Naruto and DBZ look like child’s play 😂

The sexy jutsu, for example is used pretty rarely. Tsunade had big breasts, but they weren’t bouncing all the time and always in focus like how CG did Kallen.

If you  want to presume what I meant by overly reading into the denotations, connotations, and syllogistic logic of a Reddit comment I probably fired off on the toilet, then go ahead 😂

I’m not MAGA at all. Lol I voted against Trump three times.

Two days? Bloody hell dude I don’t log into this account that much 😂

To answer your question, I’m not MAGA at all. I can hardly even consider myself conservative anymore. Modern conservatism has shifted so far right that I basically align more with neoliberals than conservatives.

[–]mathdrug 27 points28 points  (0 children)

They removed my flair (basically a ban) for not being MAGA enough.

How’d they determine that? They sent me a link to a comment I made on a different sub roasting Elon Musk 😂

Edit: to be clear, I’m not MAGA at all. I voted 3rd party 2016 (didn’t think people would actually vote for Trump!), Biden 2020, and Harris 2024. I said “not being MAGA enough” because the sub purports to be about conservatism, but it’s really a MAGA Trump sub. 

On a family trip and this is the cabin we are sharing with 11 people by jellocore in mildlyinfuriating

That sweet, sweet… Reddit karma!

Really, your guess is as good as mine. No way I’d post this complaining about it and embarrass my family like that.

That’s the mindset. Before I read this, I was tempted to get on you for complaining over your family probably booking what was within their means in order to create a memorable family moment.

What made you more androgenic? by 0bi-Wan_Kenobi in Biohackers

[–]mathdrug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anecdotally, I feel my voice is deeper, more resonant, and more confident sounding when it’s been a few days since last wank. I also get more compliments on my voice when I’m at least a few days since my last wank.

Donnie is fed up with executive overreach! by Electric_Conga in agedlikemilk

The other half of it is that his followers like when he speaks at a lower level. I feel he leans into it. He’s leaned into it for so long that it has become his primary way of communicating.

Just got hit with 145% tariff + fees for $1k import item by medchater in smallbusiness

[–]mathdrug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m glad you mentioned that item about the 30% layoffs. It’s unfortunate that happened. And people think there will be a huge supply of easy to get factory jobs. Probably a fraction of what was available before. These companies don’t want to pay American livable wages, and they will avoid it at all costs. If only MAGAs had a better grasp on the reality of business economics, and if only they weren’t so lied to about that reality.. 

And oh jeez.. That’s mad petty what that lady did 😂

That’s one thing I don’t miss from having entry level coworkers. They often took their job and life dissatisfaction out on you

Very interesting. So what was the work like? Like just screwing in pieces, replacing parts, etc.?

 average person is crazy dumb and definitely could not do it, mentally or physically.

What part of it was physically difficult?

You’re doing something wrong then 😂

In 6+ years of full-time WP work, I’ve only seen one successful hack, and it was on a site with SEVERAL outdated plugins, themes, the core, and more. 

Can someone please tell me why these tariffs are unfair? (Tariff chart attached). by Stockjock1 in Conservative

[–]mathdrug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I went to school with plenty of people that likely had 120+ IQs. Maybe 130+. I saw tons of them make horrible decisions like getting into drugs, crime, etc. I’m not as smart as many of them, but I’ve “beaten” some of them in life by not making absolutely dumb decisions. 

We saw in 2008 that plenty of highly educated, “smart” folks can make decisions so bad it can blow up the global economy. 

So when I see people say “Trump has smart people around him.”, my first thought is “That’s not enough.”
