  • Small paramilitary organization? Okay guys, we can call Isreal out for genocide while still acknowledging Hamas as a terrorist group that slaughtered 1,000 civilians, plus whatever else since then.

    Hamas and Isreal both suck. The only people I care about are the civilians and dead kids.

  • Yeah when you start throwing accusations of fascism at random posters, that's pretty riled up behavior. Nobody but you is talking about Isreal vs Palestine in this thread. Not a single person you responded to said kissinger was a good guy. You can compare atrocities and acknowledge they're all atrocities.

  • You know it's the rich people buying all those houses, right? Which raises costs, which prices out more and more regular people. Maybe we're arguing semantics, but I don't see how that's not recessive? Less buying power = recession.

  • Many stores in my area give you a free turkey if you spend enough money. I think the one I go to will give you one if you spend $150. Which really isn't hard to spend on groceries anymore, especially if you're buying all the other Thanksgiving staples for a big family.

  • Dude are you okay? No need to be a shitheel to people talking about how expensive life is whether you think they misunderstand or not. Because life is actually unaffordable for most people. It just makes you look like an ass.

  • Anecdotal evidence as opposed to the made up metrics of OOH STONKS GO UP? Low employment numbers mean nothing if everyone is working part time gig jobs and not full time career jobs. Record profits mean nothing when it's on essential goods and services that shouldn't be for-profit in the first place. I have a bigger income than ever and am still where I was. I can't buy a house. Fuck, my wife and I have a combined income of 130k and we can't even see how to get out of our 1 bedroom apartment now that student loans have come back.

    OH YEAH STUDENT LOANS! Nothing saves an economy faster than hitting millions of families with debt they haven't had to pay in years. (I don't care if you believe it should be paid back or not, but demanding it years later without helping the person figure out how to budget for it is evil.)

    Fed is shooting itself in the foot with this student loan bullshit and we're the ones who will suffer.

  • Lol I don't know where you are, but where i am average housing costs have more than doubled in the last 5 years. My grocery bill has doubled and I'm getting less.

    Maybe the fucking stick market is fine, but the actual people a failing and flailing. We are absolutely just as bad off as 2008, if not worse.

  • What did he actually lose though? He's still the most talked about person in the world. He's still not in prison. He's still out there posting hate speech and defaming literally fucking everyone and he's not seen a single actual consequence. He still gets his cheeseburgers, cell phone, and freedom to continue to harass and attack anyone he wants without any consequence.

  • You are still misinterpreting me. And claiming I'm misinterpreting you as well lol. Of course you still have to shoot your shot lol. Maybe I'd just assumed that was obvious.

    I use names because it's exasperating and frustrating to have a conversation with pessimists that always have an excuse. I get frustrated when people act like shit is supposed to fall in their laps and complain when it doesn't.

    Relationships take work. Finding a relationship does, too. It takes subtelty and nuance.

  • Jesus fuck that's completely misinterpeting what I said. I said DON'T go trying to hook up. Forget that goal entirely. If all you want is to fuck go to the bunny ranch in Reno.

    If you actually want a relationship, a genuine connection, Go to meet FRIENDS. If you're an actually likeable person people will want to be around you and be with you. But this neckbeard incel attitude is incredibly off-putting, and it makes nobody want to be around you. It's all self-fulfilling prophecy.

  • First thing to do is to not use neckbeardy scientific language like 'find a mate'. It makes me think of the way ferengi say 'Female'. It comes off as very creepy and lecherous.

    Go do things you enjoy doing. Find local groups or hobby/card/game shops with events. Get to know people. Become a known person. And be yourself. Pretending to be anything or anyone you aren't will always backfire in a real relationship.

    The big thing is to never go out with the goal of hooking up or finding someone. It adds an extra layer of weirdness if you do meet someone, and a massive extra disappointment every time you don't. Just be friendly and casual. Things will fall into place.
