Stupid is a stupid does, and smart is just the ability to efficiently accomplish your objectives with the resources available to you.

I would argue that Trump is smart in that he has managed to, with limited intellectual, strategic, or character resources pull off one of the largest con jobs in American history.

He doesn't want to do good for America, he wants to do good for himself and has achieved heretofore not possible levels of graft and extortion and all of this without facing any real consequences himself.

He's not a good man, He's not an intelligent man, but he is a smart monster. He not an imbecile, he's not witless, but he is a stupid business man.

Trump proves that you can be stupid and smart at the same time because they can apply to different qualities of a person.

He is undeniably a bad American.

Good riddance

The last time I saw a DBZ episode there was only one set of dragon balls and the animation was 8-12 frames a second. Now it seems like everyone is immortal, there is a multiverse, and Goku can clown on actual gods for the lols.

You are awesome.

Lemmy is better for you being here. Thanks for the reading material!

I'm just going to assume those 4 dollar words are real and you aren't just misspelling normal words to fuck with us.

Non surjective free magma? What about the doblastic amortized basalt?

We are lucky we got Tim Walz instead of Newsom. Tim really cares about outcomes but Gavin is all about appearances.

The whole family of grifters should be locked in a box and sunk into the ocean, but short of that, I am perfectly ok with the lot of them being run hard and put away wet.

What is the reason for these two things to get grouped up and shoved down my feed? I'm a life long and very public activist for medical financial aid programs, public housing, sexual wellness, free kindergarten, hot meals, direct aid, take back the night, ada accomodations, needle exchanges, loan forgiveness, and just about every humane cause I know of. My viewing history is about as antithetical to Tate's small dick energy as I can imagine and the anime I watch is more likely to be weird surreal stuff like Tengoku Daimakyou than some 50th year of dragon Ball

How does my feed switch from normal shorts to the incel only feed?!

I heard about them for years but this is the first time I have actually seen douche nozzle while it is flaming.

Juries determine guilt. Judges conduct trials.

Plea bargains are a way for the state to save itself the expense of a trial but the way it works out is to compel people to accept a lighter punishment via plea deal than they might get at trial even if they are innocent because there is little that pisses of the incarceration industrial complex more than being innocent.

Judges (generally) can't just summarily pronounce you guilty, but they can let the prosecution get away with anything it wants, prohibit you from presenting evidence on your own behalf, and editorialize on the facts of the case to the jury.

The whole system is engineered to lock up as many people as possible and it makes a mind boggling amount of money doing it while also using various methods to discourage targeted civilians from participating in society.

All of that fuck Biden merchandise that is still in stores is going to be mega discounted. I love the idea that someone bought a flag and mounted it to their truck and now the shop won't accept it as a return.

It warms the cockles of my heart to imagine how much anti-Biden merchandise is now utterly useless to its owner.

Now they have a new excuse of not doing anything important or interesting so they don't "taint" Harris.

See they're having us fill the whole back up again. This isn't a mass grave. They're just putting us to work! See creating jobs why complain?

They didn't tell us the age of the assailant last time or the victim. I'm guessing they tend to choose words for the headline that might have the most impact.

"White Swiss man wielding a machete attacks other Swiss people and injures possibly white Swiss baby" Just doesn't seem to really fit in a headline.

I think it might have exploded if I hit "undo"

If it's Microsoft telling us that then why does the computer look like an iMac?

Killing the first one probably won't any more than killing a single mouse doesn't stop an infestation, but once the mice realize that you got a couple of cats they will find the exit.

That's why you need to put traps by the exit too, the mice know too much and might potentially regroup to return with better tactics. You've got to get them all in one swift purge.

Adobe basically invented the SaaS model. It's not really practical to bootleg most Adobe products anymore either so most people break down and just pay the million dollar a year subscription fee so they can keep using it.

Communism is incompatible with private property or classes which is why no matter how many states write "communism" on the tin, what they actually put in it is just fascist enforced state capitalism.

China is not more communist or even socialist than the USA. A strong ruling class loves fascism and hates socialism. They are actively hostile to communism.
