not ideal that we more or less entirely vindicated the hardliners' thesis
i have a crank theory that anarchism was the internet politics equivalent of ZIRP
#MakeNuCaloricReal
we need to make nuCaloric real so we can completely automate agriculture out of existence btw
For the record my position is people saying "I should be allowed to steal/drive dangerously/litter/do xyz other antisocial things because the world is FUCKED UP" have a basically reactionary worldview and if that's the way you go through life you might as well go MAGA bc that's the way they think
it's so crazy that he can say something so obviously and flagrantly untrue and literally nobody cares
Everyone who rhapsodizes about agricultural labor should be forced to spend a year as the lowest tier of farm worker. And not on a βorganicβ , βsustainableβ, βregenerativeβ etc farm. One of the big commercial, mass-market operations that actually supply most of the worldβs food.

just won my first run of slay the spire 2 with a shiv build doing 30 dmg per shiv
we are so back
If you get into a βwho can cut taxes moreβ battle with the GOP, youβre going to lose because they are far more shameless and antagonistic to the idea of living in a functioning society.
Donβt concede to their framing that taxes are nothing but a problem to be solved.
shoplifting is bad. cheating on your taxes is bad. smoking on the train is bad. not picking up your dogβs poop is bad.
we live in a society, act like it!
it is not, the details are up on his website with a calculator and everything
what Sky doesn't realize is that after taxes, savings, and spending the average person with a six figure income has basically no money left
genuinely any of us could have saved companies millions and billions just by telling them "yeah dude he for real is gonna do tariffs and probably bomb Iran"
i was joking about this but now i'm not
Yeah I strongly dislike the left anti tax movement. There's no having a society just on the back of soaking the rich, even people far lower down the inequality ladder have to contribute. That's fine. We're all in this together.
this is why i push back on "tax the billionaires" proposals btw
if you give people a reason to believe they don't have to pay taxes they will take it and run for miles
taxes are not a punishment and framing them in this way is corrosive to society
the main problem with popularism at all costs is that you will never win in a race to out-slopulist Republicans
they are ready and willing to rip all the wiring out of the walls; this strategy of promising to rip the wires out of only the garage walls is not sustainable
i'm already writing an article on this but i think what's happening is much the same phenomenon as what has happened before with trans athletes and border control
too many Dems default to chasing polls rather than trying to change the polls
Democrats will never win a tax cutting arms race with Republicans
it's a race to the bottom where the right is fully prepared with a shovel to start digging
they do not make enough money to pay for society
Booker says $75,000 should be income tax free
which stupid consulting firm is telling all these Democrats to run on tax cuts, i just wanna have a chat
you're gonna have to brace yourselves for if oil falls back down to like $90 after the initial panic wave settles and rightoids celebrate
