I’m cool with this. Let’s devalue the trades by having an over-abundance of blue collar workers while simultaneously increasing demand for white collar jobs by reducing the supply of educated workers.

I get my toilet unclogged for even cheaper, and I get more money ten years from now when demand has risen.

I’d prefer to just have educated workers instead of glorifying back-breaking manual labor that the employees hate, but ill take a win where I can lol

This will be hilarious, because Teslas don’t even really work for the demographic that goes through vehicles the fastest: heavy duty company trucks, rental vehicle companies, and country-folk who commute 40 miles to work and 50 miles to the city for weekend leisure.

Is RFK Jr. sharing his alien mind control brain worms with all these other political candidates, or have they always been this garbage?

Appreciate you for all of that. Thank you

Yeah. I hope they cut even more as a giant “get fucked”. They’ll all vote red again next time anyways, so might as well go hard I guess.

This is directed toward the vets that voted red. If you didn’t, please disregard lol

Not me. I’m going to be bitching and moaning about it for the next 4 years. As well as enjoying a healthy dose of schadenfreude.

Also as their Lord and Savior Elon Musk imports cheap H1B labor in from all over to undercut American employees, lol

Mmhmm, do you know what’s not lost on me? All the Trump supporters that stormed the capital, in much the same way that people around here seem to be hinting at. I don’t think they really accomplished much behind bars for the last four years. But let’s ignore all that and throw some more jabs in my direction. I’ll be here voting and figuring out what else I can do while the people here criticizing me either do nothing, or lose their right to vote after a prison sentence.

Sir, we are posting on a Lemmy thread. There is no front line here.

Sick of all the complaining. Why don’t you share some actionable advice instead venting about how I’m not doing enough to make yourself feel superior?

I’m seeing a lot of criticism and no actionable advice whatsoever, from anybody who has responded to me. Maybe your contribution should be to educate people instead of telling them their actions aren’t good enough? Either do that or shut up, because you’re not contributing to the conversation.

Yeah, because voting and refusing to support republican business is “apathy”. Good luck convincing anyone other than your own echo chamber to do more than that.

Shit, I did more than a third of Americans that didn’t even vote. Suck it. Better yet, I didn’t vote to actively destroy my nation like the Republicans did.

Good luck convincing any of those two-thirds to join your side by pedaling life-destroying rhetoric.

Please do whatever you want. I’ll continue to work my own methods.

Stop trying to be so edgy, asshole. I didn’t ask for this, and basically nobody else on Lemmy did either simply based on user demographics. Even younger-middle-aged people have only been eligible to vote in a handful of presidential elections, and we’re fighting decades of gerrymandering, bribery, greed, and billions of dollars in corporate money propaganda campaigns. Basically all there is for me to do is vote at the polls and put my money where my mouth is, which I’m already doing. I’m not going to go out and riot and be sent to jail so I can lose everything because Walmart thought Trump would yield another half a percent to their stock prices.

When something comes up that I can do, I’ll join in, but I’m not going to have randos berate me for BS I never asked for.

Yeah, Costco is great. One of the few places I don’t feel bad shopping at here in a red state.

Honestly, I don’t want to buy anything at all anymore because I don’t know which of the lot voted for Trump

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a rush toward re-nuclearization after these last couple years.

What are the odds Ukraine would be invaded by Russia if they had nukes?

Would Trump be joking about making Canada a 51st state if they had nukes?

Trump and the rest of the American government is showing NATO and every other country that we’re one election away from abandoning our promises to our allies. Nobody can be trusted.

Any country would be a fool to consider giving up their nukes after seeing the shitshow.

Agreed. If I ever tried “accessing” government data like that, I’d be in jail. So should he

Thats fine, I’m just as happy being fully “anti-religon” for equality.

Not even old enough for their car insurance to have dropped yet
