  • There is actually a youtube channel called "Dhar Mann" filled with stupid scenarios and end with the moral "So you see, this is why you don't treat the poor-looking guy badly... because he might be secretly rich and was about to give you a big tip on the bill". Not because you should have common decency, but because "he might be a secret rich person" 🤦‍♂️

    You're gonna die laughing of the cringe if you ever watch those videos 🤣

  • Lol I cringed so hard at that.

    Also

    ::: spoiler Legend of Korra spoilers Aang being the merciful idiot he is and letting Yakone live is why his recincarnation had to deal with the Amon problem. 🤦‍♂️ ::

  • I don't think "leaving money for my kids" will even be a thing anymore if we all just have UBI, Socialized Healthcare, Tax-Funded Free college, and support for people with diability. I mean, your kida aren't gonna like depend on your wealth "or else they starve", with all the automation that is replacing human workers, there will be a huge pool of money for UBI and, the kids can survive on UBI.

  • Before the oligarchs say this is "violence".

    This can be done peacefully. Just enact a law that taxes everything above like 999 million (or a fewer amount, to be debated on), and if you don't comply, that's tax evasion and you go to jail. Complelete peaceful (other than the tax-person we'd have to send to arrest the rich for non-complance), comply and everyone is happy.

    Voila, no more billionaires, and that wealth redistributed will let everyone become a millionaire. Everyone is happy, maybe the 1% cries that they now have a few less yachts and mansions, but like, they can still enjoy that one house, same as everyone else would also have.

  • Nah fuck "Gun Control". Red states and rural towns are just gonna ignore that and hand out guns to the far right. The time for the gun debate was 1787, now its too late, cats out of the bag. The far right already has them, the left should have them too. Hopefully the "liberals" also get armed and join the pro-freedom left side of the fight

  • I hope there's nothing secretly sinister about it.

    I mean, sure, this could endup just being FUD like with the antivax conspiracy theory, but it also has the potential of being another Microplastic polluting shit like PFAS that nobody knew was harmful for many decades.

    So for things I have low-info on, its best to not hold a strong opinion, rather than risking beliving in the wrong thing. I keep my mind open to different points of view.

  • Again, you don't actually need 60 senators, just 50 is enough. Rule changes to the filibuster can pass with 50 votes.

    But you're forgetting the 218 seats need in the house, and obviously also the presidency.

    And they can't just be a "Democrat", but also have to be a "Progressive Democrat". I mean, its an uphill battle.

  • Eventually. I'd say in 2050-2070. If the US doesn't fall apart by then.

    But if actual leftists get into congress, they could just change the senate rules and/or ignore/fire the senate parliamentarian. So only 50 seats is needed.

    Or blue states can join together and create a Socialized Universal Healthcare System that all residents of those states get the benefit.

  • Its not helping since liberals keep pushing anti-gun propaganda and pass restrictive gun laws that allows the police to have the discretion deny gun permits, while hillbillys in a red jurisdiction can just walk into a walmart and get a gun without any of this "permits" requirements.

    Its almost like Democrats are secretly helping the far right by attemping to disarm people left-of-center.
