I absolutely despise that SLAM is an acceptable word in journalism. How the fuck did that happen?

That's cool. I wonder if they're planning an android version

I see you all over Lemmy being shitty. Blocking now

It sounds like you are making excuses for ppl. enjoy that ✌️

We should absolutely call them out on being hypocrites. These are people who vote against their own interests and against anyone's interest who isn't a billionaire. They do not care about the waste until it's spent, ironically, helping poor people. But if a Republican wastes trillions on war or even raises their taxes, they're as quiet as a mouse.

I wish it were as simple as you say. Republicans would never make into office again. But you're entirely wrong about that simplicity

I'm not sure what your point is, but to reiterate, mine is that people are selfish and I think that's a bad thing. I can't tell if you think it's a good thing or what.

The US spends money in awful ways. But these people don't mention better ways to spend it. Only that their taxes are too damned high. they have no problem with billionaires paying a far lower percentage than they do...

Very well said. Fully agree. Being from Appalachia, it's so heartening to know someone is there who stands for what's right and against all the reasons I had to leave. He's a saint.

Holy shit this is so true.

I am with you on this. Also when the effort requires feels so small relative to other situations, it hits me worse too

I agree this is a problem but I don't think it's more often than not.

Yep! And any examples of countries to have high tax rates but spend well are outright ignored. So annoying!
