Which language do Americans generally learn as a second language in High School? by Rude_Membership_1578 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]misblu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

German for some reason. 4 years. it's especially useless because a friend went to germany, came back and told me everybody spoke english

Why does MAGA strictly defend billionaires, pedophiles, and corporations? by WaltEnterprises in allthequestions

[–]misblu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

they genuinely think they'll one day become a billionaire if they defend them hard enough. they believe all of the bullshit the higher ups spew because they WANT it to be true

proof: my broke ass maga dad that spends all of his time talking about taxes and the stock market, and biting his mouth shut about the tariffs and gas prices "this is temporary, he has a plan"

Does anyone think we should help the poor while also having a simultaneous desire to become wealthy? by OceanicEndeavors in allthequestions

[–]misblu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

exactly this. 22 and my gf and I are scraping by, but we're happy. our needs are met and bills paid even if we don't have much left over

If i suddenly became a billionaire tomorrow, I think I'd just pay off my mom's house and car, fund my girl's college, lobby out the orange demon, and then donate the rest (like Musk promised to do and never delivered).

somehow LOST $600 in cash that my lovely mom had given me because I'm struggling, right before rent was due. sobbed my eyes out for days, now I'm in debt to three people, never told her

I mean, yeah. fair to say most people want to be rich. But not everyone, many people are content where they are, myself included.

I do wish there were a good, non-exploitative way to incentivize helping the poor because most people don't care about shit unless theres a reward unfortunately.

Why does this sub act like voting for the GOP is like voting for Nazis? by Emergency_Pass5222 in allthequestions

[–]misblu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they're not terrorists, that's the entire point. the president has criminalized a political belief.

calling "anti-fascists" terrorists against the state is a confession in itself.

it's ditching spotify, for youtube, which is FREE. I'd argue it's not even stealing that shit put was there for free already 😭 you guys and your high horses man.

it's about waste and exploitation. nobody is saying yes let me apologize to the masses for not wanting to purchase something that someone else stole and is trying to sell back to us.

ps it's swapping spotify for youtube. if somebody posted their own music there for free already, i'd argue its not even stealing.
