  • If Biden got Primaried he absolutely would lose.

    I'm sure you have strong evidence of this, with how confident you are?

  • I mean, I can literally walk two minutes down the street and buy a pre-rolled joint to smoke in front of the NYPD if I wanted to, so this isn't the strongest argument.

  • Taxing the billionaires is not actually enough money to fund single payer healthcare for the country.

  • TIL Germany is not a civilized country, by virtue of having a multi-payer system.

  • Letting poor people die of lack of medical care is not the merciful strategy you think it is.

  • I quite liked it, personally.

    I imagine saying that is going to be treated as an admission of heresy here though.

  • Steamboat Willie, the first Mickey Mouse cartoon, will become public domain in literally 13 days.

  • That you're being strongly downvoted for properly analyzing an unpopular perspective is disappointing but not remotely surprising here.

  • A recession is a specific problem; avoiding a recession does not mean that all economic woe is alleviated.

    To throw out a shitty analogy, stating that a hurricane hasn't happened doesn't mean that there hasn't been any bad weather at all.

  • My boyfriend is Swiss, and there's been a loose open conversation over where we'd want to end up settling long-term. A second Trump term would definitely add several points in the Switzerland column.

  • I might perhaps blame the people actually launching missiles at random trading ships, personally.

  • Info that is publically broadcast, that technically must be publically broadcast, that isn't necessarily personally identifiable, and is only linked to a user-chosen pseudonym probably isn't going to be found to have much of a right to privacy.

  • I'm not really asking you to look it up or anything, but this gets parroted around a lot, and I wonder if there's actually any data to really support it or if it's just a statement that kinda sounds nice.

  • So you have evidence of bribes?

    That's cool. Please share with the class.

  • If this is the level of maturity that's going to represent the Fediverse, I'm almost inclined to believe they actually do have pure intentions, because there's no way this shit is financially valuable.

  • Are you truly incapable of imagining that someone might have a different opinion than you without being bribed?

    "Everyone who disagrees with me must be getting paid" is not the mature take you think it is.

  • This perspective of "Either you agree with me or you're complicit in a conspiracy against me" is incredibly childish and immature.

    Sometimes people have different opinions than you. Try to find a way to deal with it.

  • You can at least pay (quite a lot less than a cable subscription) to remove them. It beats paying $80 a month for the great privilege of spending 30% of the time watching ads.

    For now, of course.
