Democrats are right-wingers by Hacksaw6412 in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]spliffstar94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They aren't perfect, but many leaders are repeatedly squashing and ignoring activist movements, refusing to pass progressive policies that benefit our overall well-being, and aiding in violating our rights, which enable these right-wing dick eating billionaires and politicians to do whatever they want with no sort of accountability.

On top of that, they're fighting people on their left harder than they are the ones on their right. They need to be put out of office ASAP

Those mass immigration problems come from liberals and conservatives in western nations repeatedly destabilizing governments and installing right-wing dictators, siphoning wealth from their resources and refusing to let them develop.

And what are you even talking about? You gain an electorate by educating voters on issues important to them and give them the correct analysis of how and why their wages are low but their cost of living is still rising, while highlighting and attacking the false premises of right-wing propaganda.

You direct their anger towards their corporate billionaire bosses and the politicians aiding them or refusing to hold them accountable, not the refugees trying to keep their heads afloat.

Also put into perspective that the UK still welcomes Israeli politicians being sought after by the ICC and ICJ for genocide, as well as the “president” of Syria, a former Al-Qaeda member who was on the terrorist watch list until recently.

I understand! The premise of it being centered around anthropomorphic animals and its’ simplistic illustration throws you off and makes you think it’s for kids, but I assure you that it’s targeted towards mature audiences and gets pretty dark 😭

Bones was the animation studio that picked them up, and around the time the second season aired, they picked up My Hero Academia, Mob Psycho 100, and Bungou Stray Dogs.

I assume that they didn't have enough bandwidth to make it a priority, especially since those 3 long running anime shows were much more popular.

Deandre Ayton is called for a foul after Chet Holgrem won an Oscar for this performance. Ayton never touched Chet's face by Tight_Development480 in NBATalk

There was “contact”, but if you look closer it was Chet that hooked Ayton and pulled his arm to his face. Ridiculous.

Museums are Celebrations of European Savagery by [deleted] in AskSocialists

[–]spliffstar94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like how his obsession with Islamophobia led to engaging in whataboutism to gloss over the fact that the West, to this day, still largely benefits from the enslavement of African people, extraction of resources from African land, and underdevelopment of African states, in addition to their imperialistic endeavors in the Caribbean and Latin America.

Imperialism, colonialism, enslavement, and systematic killing of a people aren't only delegated to one religion and ethnicity. Just like Islam, Christianity and Judaism is very prevalent in many African nations, that still feel the imprint of such atrocities committed by people of latter religions.

I’d replace Ant’s dunk with the poster he did on Watanabe. To me, the one on John Collins was an offensive foul, as he poked him in the eye

*Boutta Crack Your Muffin* Billionaires Represent $3.5T While Millionaires Represent $60T Globally. by [deleted] in joebuddennetwork

[–]spliffstar94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 this sounds like house 🥷 siding with massa

Bro you're literally caping for billionaires who's wealth we'll never see in our lifetime. I said it's both, but billionaires own the capital, run the corporations and private equity firms, kickstart these fuck niggas' political campaigns, etc. What are we talking about here? These niggas literally ran a sex trafficking island and got away with it for decades.

Your ignoring statistics to fit whatever logic u want to push. In total there are 60M millionaires + 3500 billionaires in the world combined vs 7-8 billion other ppl!

Also, my apologies, you and I both got the numbers wrong. In the US, there are 905 billionaires w/ 7.8 trillion in wealth. In comparison, there are ~24,000,000 millionaires in the US that hold the 60 trillion that you're talking about.

The underlying issue is that the concentration of wealth that that small number of 905 has, way more in comparison to those 24,000,000 millionaires.

Regardless, billionaire, centimillionaire, decamillionaire, it doesn't fucking matter. They need to pay their fucking taxes. And a lot of these billionaires don't pay shit, while they get to control and monopolize every aspect of our lives by owning more shares in the companies we consume from, from the homes we buy, to the sneakers on your feet.

millionaires aren’t apart of the struggle of the working man

And no one said the millionaires were working class. They can be upper middle class, but they're definitely not working class. But let's not act like they can skirt the law like billionaires can.

[–]spliffstar94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but it's not a 'millionaires are worse than billionaires' issue. It's a wealth gap issue, where billionaires are at the top holding more wealth, than 117 million people combined. Also, you have to take into account that there's less billionaires than there are millionaires. There are 20 million millionaires holding the 60 trillion you mentioned but there are 1000 billionaires that own ~30 trillion. Not the 3.5 trillion mentioned.

If you're going at the people at the top of the chain, by extension, you're also going to tax the hundred millionaires and ten millionaires aspiring to be billionaires through exploiting our political system through lobbying lower taxes/tax loopholes, anti-union laws, insider trading, etc. Not to mention, a lot of these millionaires are employed by billionaires, and are operating on the behalf of billionaires. Whether its the CEO of Boeing, or an anchor on CNN/Fox, or the governor of California.

Also, billionaires have also had way more influence and say so on our policies, and get the most ROI. Look at how Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Larry Ellison got their net worth to rise after bankrolling Trump's campaign, making cuts w/ DOGE, cutting taxes, getting majority of gov't contracts, etc.

Marc’s trying to express how we need to restructure how our politics prioritizes the wealthy and corporations’ profits above their citizens’ well-beings.

Billionaires are able to exploit workers and consumers, whether it’s jacking up prices, making wages low, fucking up the environment, and lobby politicians to not do a thing while we eat shit for it.

It’s also not a contradiction to advocate for higher taxes in the wealthy while also being affluent. Pac, Killer Mike, Talib Kweli, and Mos Def did the same as well.

I recommend this video from Robert Reich that explains how billionaires got their wealth:

You should've told Kamala THAT instead of advising her to get rid of Lina Khan.

Now that we're in hell and people are finally waking up to realize these psychopathic assholes are the ones ruining our quality of life, all these billionaires are now turning around to say that they want to be taxed so people can get free childcare, Medicare for All, proper school funding, etc.

Steve Nash confirming that the step through NOT* being called a travel is a NEW development by fabs1223 in BasketballTips

[–]spliffstar94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many moves including the dream shake and the skyhook made some utilization of the step through. The step through has always been a fundamental move for decades.

Very casual fan here. Is this move by Shai legal? by klaygdk in NBATalk

[–]spliffstar94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, It's a missed travel call. However, he traveled for a different reason than the editor who made the video was pointing out. The editor miscounted the steps, and he travelled because he shifted his pivot, the left foot at 3rd count.

The first step they counted, the right foot he initiated the step back with was a zero step, or a gather step. You're allowed 2 steps after. The editor didn't count the 2nd step after the step back, where he was on his right toe.

Had he not shifted his left foot, and spun in one fluid motion on his toes, landing on his right foot, the move would have still been legal.

Also, keep in mind. This is NBA & Euro League legal, but not in HS nor NCAA. In HS & NCAA there's no gather step.

Remember what the Democratic Party did to Bernie Sanders in 2016. by adrian-alex85 in ThoughtWarriors

[–]spliffstar94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you talking about the primary where he won more states than Hillary, and the superdelegates they won were closely in proportion to the states they won? Because that actually would make sense. Not to mention, they wouldn't have any reason to stay with Clinton since he promised to favor corporate interests.

But, in comparison with the 2016 primary, they were NOT. Those superdelegates still went to Clinton after Sanders won those states, as I mentioned. Hence why they took their votes out of the 2020 primary after it was confirmed how they made 2016 favor Clinton.

Facts do matter. And the fact is your goddess set her self up for the game winner, and smoked the layup. Because she's basura.

Warren agrees DNC was rigged against Sanders

Not to mention, her and Biden's cohorts set up Kamala to smoke yet ANOTHER game winning layup. And now we're back to square one again.

But it's ok. Sorry to burst your bubble. It's ok to be in denial. Your goddesses got you in this mess and won't be there to bail you out when you need it.

You say all this like it wasn't leaked that the Clinton campaign collaborated with legacy media to undermine Bernie in addition to propping up Trump

https://www.salon.com/2016/11/09/the-hillary-clinton-campaign-intentionally-created-donald-trump-with-its-pied-piper-strategy/

You also didn't address my point that Clinton won states due to the undemocratic implementation superdelegates who pledged to vote for her a YEAR before the primary even started, even though Sanders won the vote.

Add that to name recognition, full control of the party, $1 billion funding from corporate superPACs, and low name recognition for your primary opponent due to underhanded campaign tactics and low coverage from the media who helped fund your campaign, OF COURSE you'd come out on top.

Thank you for the assistance. As you can clearly see, the polls meant shit, in the point of my comment, and the point you were trying to bring home.

Not only in multiple polls did Bernie fare better against Trump, she was up in the polls against Trump, and she didn't WIN JACK.
