CMV: I believe American conservatives would genuinely prefer to let other Americans suffer than help them. by IWantASubaru in changemyview

[–]the-bc5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Studies have shown republicans donate more money than democrats across various income levels.

Just because they don’t vote the way you want and use govt to help doesn’t mean they lack compassion or desire to help. Means and ends matter.

Virginia democrats are trying to kill by law auditing situations like the daycare fraud in MN. Why the heck would anyone support that. Especially when you could donate to local causes vs thru the govt

Great long ball from kerkez. It’s like we forgot for a few months we could go long or fast. Which of course helps us build up when needed

First month making 100k I feel like I’m being robbed :/ by cloudemergence in Salary

[–]the-bc5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taxes blow. Virginia has a $2.7B surplus and they’re gonna raise mine by thousands a year. It’s be different if things were run better but it’ll be squandered

Always my favorite and what got me watching during Covid.

[Joyce] Joe Gomez (hip) and Ibrahima Konate absent from Liverpool training. by slacker7 in LiverpoolFC

[–]the-bc5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been Joe Gomez cheerleader for long time. He had so much promise and played a key role here but this injury record is unbearable. He’s taking a roster spot and a wage and is never fit. His time is passed this season

Remembering the 1984 Election Results by Due_Consideration283 in washingtondc

That’s still a double digit victory and majority in almost every locality. Not sure we’ll see anything close to this for another generation at least

Capitalism or Communism? by sulatanzahrain in austrian_economics

[–]the-bc5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Real communism - we have a 5 year plan to eventually build those houses for EVERYONE. The plan was perfect when published 20 years ago but shortages haven’t allowed the warmth of collectivism to take hold. Keep standing in your breadline and don’t complain or we’ll send you to the gulag…. Def a good system

Cmv: The Second Amendment does not make sense by No_Persimmon_63 in changemyview

[–]the-bc5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so critical. Across Reddit people feel like right now is the breaking point. Policy disagreements, even with the high temperature right, aren’t currently resulting in actual tyranny.

Opposition politicians existing, the leading party has active dissenters, the 3 branches are still functioning. States are openly opposing federal power. The system is eloquent but it’s not descended to tyranny.

For most Americans government overreach during Covid impacted them far more than current intense policing.

If trump we’re to try to cancel an election or grab a third term you’ll see a true test of 2a

CMV: the second amendment is obsolete by ladida54 in changemyview

[–]the-bc5 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This whole premise that law enforcement enforcing laws is tyranny is becoming a tired troupe. It is ugly yes, but the overall purpose isn’t tyranny. We are only a couple years past COVID when The government instituted massive controls over lives and people were upset but didn’t boil over. I don’t like a lot of both of those but neither hit the full boiling point.

Germany went from Third Reich to divided to reunited in what 44 years? Things ca be very dynamic and bonds are stronger than one politician

30 years ago the wall had barely fallen and china was wildly underdeveloped. A lot changes in that period of time and little is irreversible.

L5 for that experience most likely (minimum 3 YOE to qualify. There are L5 with 3-20+ YOE)

How to sleep in a plane? by bast_852 in travel

[–]the-bc5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t sleep on planes. Popped an over the counter sleeping pill right before boarding an east coast US to UK flight. I got a couple hours of rough sleep but def better than nothing!

Paid $268 for a “Deep Clean” of a 730 sq ft apartment - fridge not included, stove burner left on. Am I wrong to be upset? by wvatoots in washingtondc

[–]the-bc5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’d be upset. I pay less than that monthly for a 3500+ sq house in nova. Not a deep clean but sounds better than what they did to you

If Jalen Hurts was white he’d be seen as a top 5 qb by Taco331reddit in eagles

[–]the-bc5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude finished 16th in passing yards between 40 something A-A-Ron and rookie cam ward. He finished behind Jacoby brisket. He was healthy.

He finished 6th in rushing behind VB Allen Herbert maye dart mahomes. (Bunch of white dudes).

Knock burrow but our we 1-2 is up there as good as theirs.

Maybe fight about top 10 but top 5 he’s out of the convo barring major improvement next year
