so this guy was successful in getting a former employer to pay him unpaid royalties and now he’s outing himself as a supporter of a criminal organization headed by a guy who has a long history of not paying the people that do work for him

That line is so fucking rich coming from someone running as a member of a party who would re-enact segregation in a heartbeat if they thought they could get away with it. Sundown towns would make a comeback if they had their way. 

I have a friend in Florida and from what he’s told me, there’s been significant instances of business owners who gleefully were for clamping down on the “aliens” and everything Meatball Ron hammered until it wiped out their work crew and cried “I didn’t think it would affect ME!”

While I agree, it is worth remembering that Protestantism is basically built on the assumption that Catholics aren’t real Christians. The Separatist Puritans left England because Anglicanism was too Catholic for them.

Even more deliciously absurd is the fact that the majority of the immigrants coming into the US are highly religious (Catholic, Christian, etc). They’d be a *LOCK* for Republican votes if the party could let go of their ethno-fascist Nazi-wannabe white-supremacist bullshit. But no. Their hate for not-white people is…

What makes me shake my head the most is that Conservative Politics have evolved and become emboldened to the point that they don’t really need the dog whistles and code anymore.

Marty...Homie, you don’t need to say “Traditional Families” anymore, you can just say “gay people are illegal,” your fellow Republicans…

The irony with these chuds is they always seem to invoke Christianity and Jesus as the basis for their “family values”, and they get it completely wrong.

I wish more people realized this. Presidents don’t just flip a switch and the economy is fixed. They do a bunch of shit and pass it off to the next president to deal with. Obviously that is a huge oversimplification, but my point is that i wish more people looked at things more than surface-deep

“Our country is going in the wrong direction,” O’Donnell says in the video. “Toxic divisions are tearing our families and our society apart.”

You mean aside from the white nationalism and the “anti-woke” cultural wars? Yeah he’s a shitty dude. 

Well, I guess he’ll have a small fandom a fraction of the size of what he once enjoyed before he outed himself as a horrible human being, even if his music still slaps.

Okay, this is goddamn stupid. Yes Balatro uses poker as a starting mechanism. There is no actual gambling.

The $70k price tag is for exclusivity.

It’s for people who have more money than sense and want to show it off.

Yes that’s part of what makes all of this incredibly stupid. 

Pretty much my exact thoughts ever since its incarnation. AND i’ve got 17 more years of existence than you. So this is the dumbest fucking thing for at least HALF A CENTURY.

I feel like they need to make a modern update of Koyaanisqatsi, where instead of the grim and depressing parts showcasing things like mass highway traffic, subway crowds, building demolitions, etc...

Clubhouse Games 51, a Nintendo game, has actual gambling in it.

This whole deal, is, by far, the dumbest fucking thing I’ve ever seen in my 34 years of existence. What in the actual fuck is this, and what kind of absolute fucking imbecile would pay for any of this? What is this for? What is the purpose? What are you even “playing”?

Our economy is dependent on the myth of unlimited growth.
