  • How many kids are going to get a Switch Lite this Christmas instead of a Switch 2 because now it's just outside of their parents budget?

    Not the biggest deal in the world i guess

  • Buddy this here is the collapse - you are in it right now.

  • This is like watching the toughest guy in the prison who runs the biggest gang just start smashing his own head against the concrete floor

  • People are saying if you ask ChatGPT the easiest way to do a global tariff based on trade deficits with a minimum of 10 percent - it spits out the exact same numbers.

  • Then change your approach. Instead of trying to black pill every leftist on lemmy like you have been - go post in liberal or moderate social media circles and try to hone your message into something that is effective.

  • Hope is not a strategy. If someone came to you looking for a business loan and they said 'we are going to hope people get tired of drinking soda which is terrible for them and switch over to our carrot juice' - would you give them the loan?

  • My parents would never have allowed it or my dad would've gotten very creepy about it.

  • 40% identify as conservative, 40% as moderate, and 20% (25 in a good year) identity as liberal.

    Like it or not, your leftist agenda can only be achieved by working with those you'd rather not. Refusing to do so and not formulating a strategy to get them onboard with your agenda is detrimental to every goal you have.

  • Those Redditors are probably 16 year olds themselves upset that the girls they like are always going for 18 - 20 year olds

  • They're experiencing positive re-enforcement when they get violent with the people they've intrapped. They're getting more violent because they want more of the positive online feedback they've been getting.

    There is no lofty thought process about justice.

  • Because most people don't understand why Yemen is being bombed and it's tough to fully explain the geopolitical situation before you've lost your audiences attention.

    Yemen attacking our boats - must attack back to protect boats. That's the extent of people's knowledge.

    Even describing 'they collapsed a whole building to kill one guy' is tough - most people don't know the US has a missile that can kill one person accurately. They can't accept that people would be so cruel, so there just have been a logical reason why so many had to die to kill one person.

    But...

    Everyone can understand why inviting a journalist to your war chat group to skirt record keeping rules is a huge fuckup. It's easy to understand and it sticks in the mind.

  • I replaced potato chips with these for budget reasons.

    They're actually better. You can eat them with cheese or salami or peanut butter.

  • What the hell is with the Germans and austerity? They've been holding their own country back for over 15 years

  • This proves Thor is the most consistent out of everyone in that universe.

  • In the 1980s, it was possible for a McDonald's worker to afford a house on their salary alone due to lower housing costs and higher relative purchasing power. For example, in 1980, the average home price was around $47,200, and minimum wage workers could feasibly save for a down payment with disciplined budgeting[5].

    Today, this scenario is nearly impossible. Housing costs have skyrocketed while wages have stagnated. A full-time McDonald's worker earning $8.75/hour would gross about $13,811 annually, far below the income needed to afford even modest housing without spending more than 30% of their income on rent[2][4].
