This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
When reached for comment, White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly told the Daily Beast in a statement, “It’s sad that Daily Beast interns cannot grasp the concept of pro-growth policies that create jobs. Their minds are clearly warped after cheering on Joe Biden as he wrecked our economy for four years.”
The pettiness is unreal.
This is not "pettiness". This is all part of a multi-generational psychological warfare operation to brainwash the working class and implement totalitarian dictatorship — started by the Koch Bros, Roger Ailes, Rupert Murdoch, and other wealthy narcissists several decades ago — and the fascists are winning; facilitated by "liberals" who are mostly a manufactured opposition, financed by the same corporations/oligarchs.
No war but class war, and the capitalist class is winning.
The rhetoric that politicians are idiots and they don't know what they're doing is also damaging, because it makes people assume stupidity rather than malice.
But it is malice. The incompetence is real, make no mistake, but malice is in fact the end goal.
When profits are involved, always assume malice.
The only time you should assume stupidity is when dealing with family, friends, colleagues, frontline workers, etc; basically anyone you interact with who wouldn't profit off the malice (eg the sales person or marketing team will lie to make a sale).
Never believe that anti-Semites [read: fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
I'd say educational system, or better, it's downfall through decades, plays a significant role in making population dumb enough to not see through these constant lies.
It feels like some edgelord 4chan trolls have taken over the government
Exactly what happened. What are we going to do about it? I plan to create a self-sustainability community to at least drain their leverage a bit.
Do you think anyone could shoot her an email asking for comments on shit?
I wish he'd fucking die already
Then we'd have President Vance and first Mistress Kirk. This cancer is going to take a while to cut out if it doesn't outright kill us.
Cult leaders need charisma and couchfucker ain't got it. He might end out pres in that hypothetical but he wouldn't have the implied maga threat behind him Trump does so I think he'd get a lot less of the agenda pushed.
He also race mixed which will cause some infighting that I feel will be as enjoyable as NYE fireworks 👌
(i have no problems there, but they sure as hell do, lmao)
I love it when they follow Trump's name with his age. Fuck the gerontocracy
Boomers in the 1980s: "Those damn robots took our darn jorbs"
Trump in 2025: "We're giving these jorbs to the robots"
And this will benefit the average worker by giving him more free time while keeping his job and salary, right?
This implies that sometimes he rants coherently which is not true.
This dumb fucking child rapist
More people are working right now in the United States than at any other time in our history.
The same can be said year on year every single year (except 2020) due to population and economic growth.
What he doesn't say is that the divergence between the average wage and the cost of living has never been greater. So, while more people are available to work, they are earning less per hour in bread and bricks than they were 5, 10, 15, 20 (etc.) years ago.
Have some self-respect. Don't feed The Daily Beast.
I blocked /c/politics over this, but it seems like none of the big .world communities care about tabloid sourced/clickbait headlines.
And, unfortunately, clickbait works. They always float up to the top of Active.
My parents aren't much younger than him and every time he speaks I worry for their health.
Did your parents do insane amounts of coke, rape children and utterly ignore their health in pursuit of porkish hedonism? Then go for high stress bullshit with a family history of dementia?
I am once again begging people not to post a headline that starts with “Trump, 79,” that doesn’t end with. Well. You know.
To think Trump 1.0 was an improvement over this shit show.
Trump 1.0 he was actually there still, easily manipulated but still there. Now he's just a puppet with dementia.
Nah, 1.0 was only better because he spent the whole time figuring out wtf to do. He didn't even know he had to hire his own cabinet. 2.0 is the result of those four years of realizing the power and protection of the position, and another four of teams of knowledgeable people working hard to make sure this term would be the last they'd ever need.
Finally a headline that correctly describes the situation.
I hope this was his last merry Christmas. I hope we’re getting close to his Mussolini ending
Wasn't Mussolini ripped apart by his constituents?
And hung for public viewing. I mean we all know maga is feral so 🤞🏼
Either put him in a home or in the ground. I don’t care which, but for the love of god, take away his Internet access.
Trump is nothing more than an incoherent buffoon. How long can he be propped up and worshipped like this? To the majority of Europeans, doing business with the US is considered far too untrustworthy. Our elected officials know this because we make it clear. Sadly, we too have buffoons arising and gaining power here. If they to get in, we are all fucked.
They want artificial employees to discipline the labor market but what they will get instead is a deskilled labor force and business structures that are even more resistant to adaptation.
beginning of this headline got my hopes up that he finally croaked. fuckers.
