Oh. I thought it was supposed to be about how hard it would be to do stuff while carrying around spoons in your hands all day.

Before the musk acquisition I had something like 8,000 people blocked… mostly the inane shit like “Patriot Christian Dog Mom” or incredible douchebags like “dc_draino”.

“Waahhh” huh? What a ridiculous reply.

Okay, how’s Tommy Tuberville? But who cares. I’m not visiting your “x” link but sources I’ve seen don’t even have pelosi in the top 10. Republicans are just obsessed with attacking her even now that she’s not Speaker. Talk about “waahhh”. That’s fine, if you want to engage in massive hypocrisy, wring your hands about imaginary problems and pretend everything bad is democrats, that’s very on brand for conservatives.

Anyway, yes, you should be concerned about ethical lapses of Congress members even if you don’t recognize their names.

Republicans are obsessed with pelosi owning stocks as if she’s the only person in Congress who does it. I guess it takes the heat of everyone else… I read a list of the top 10 stock owners and profit makers in Congress, one of course the top ones were republicans.

I just can’t really parse this considering that Republicans want to do things like eliminate the entire EPA and tried 60 times just in the past several years to cancel health care for people like me. Dems would get a hell of a lot more done if Republicans didn’t reflexively block anything at all they try to do.

The only person who can stop WW3 and also “save the country”, which according to him is a smoking husk.

He really is a remarkably stupid person.

still love how someone referred to him as “that Skeletor looking motherfucker”

It’s Breitbart. Of course it’s a horrible hit piece.

I mean, we’ve been saying this to people of this viewpoint on Lemmy all year and so far, not one I’ve seen has ever said “oh, you have a point”.

Seems like an overly generous interpretation. They want to change this because insurance companies never wanted it, since they don’t want to have to actually pay money out for people who are sick.

It’s worth noting too that while the article says one idea is of course “todays healthy could be tomorrow’s sick”, a more persuasive point may be that todays sick could be tomorrow’s healthy. Or, even imagine, preventative care. Personally I was self employed in my 20s and 30s and thought it was okay to have no health insurance because I was young and healthy. Self employment is about the worst situation for US health insurance. Turns out I wasn’t healthy. The progression of what was going on with me ended up destroying my productivity. From a societal, financial view, being shut out of medical care was a net loss for everyone - if I’d had access to a relatively small and cheap amount of preventative care, I would have ended up contributing far more in economic activity and taxes over my lifetime, versus now where I consume more in healthcare than I would have otherwise as well.

It’s a greentext. The default is to assume it’s BS.

Grain alcohol probably just means everclear.

The official position of lemmy leftists tends to be that Democrats are the same as Republicans because they’re both ‘liberal’, as in the European sense meaning capitalist, which overlooks a whole lot and is an ignorant “both sides are the same” or single issue fixation. I’m not sure how that translates into never criticizing Republicans, though? There are 3-4 people who post stuff like that regularly, especially talk about the ‘genocide’ issue, encourage 3rd party voting etc and never acknowledge comments regarding how voting works in the US, meaning that talking endless shit about Democrats works to get Trump elected, and that getting Trump elected will in no way whatsoever help Palestinians.

Just anti-Democrat. Very consistently. Hits the same targets as Republicans, always, never criticizes Republicans.

Hell yeah I love posting stuff like this on Lemmy in support of communism!

Previously Tramp praised Robinson, saying he was like “Martin Luther King on steroids” among other stupid Trump-typical things.

Such an odd thing about these “i’m so communist bro!” people.

Wow, the NY Post is really living up to their reputation of being complete and utter tripe lately.
