I suspect private security company stocks are about to go way up.

President Musk, huh? I wonder what First Lady Trump thinks about himself not being the most important person in his party.

Oh look, they’re doing a Nintendo.

> “some cuts”
> the cuts:

but what the hell is this?

I thought it was either trolling or a bot trying to undermine public support for an icon representing the public’s collective hatred of the rich, but it turns out that he’s just a guy who is extremely vocal about his disabilities and activism.

His take is utterly fucking moronic and misses the point, but it doesn’t seem overtly malicious within the context of everything else he says on Xitter and BlueSky.

The details on this one are just 🤌

Oh, that’s brilliant. Thank you

I’m not directing this at you personally when I say this, but what the fuck is so hard for most people to believe about the idea? Is it a foreign concept to treat franchized fast food places run by different franchisees as not equal? I’m not the only one who uses reviews to decide if I should skip a crappy location.

Are they actually going to pay that out?

No no, you see: the tax breaks are incentive for the rich to stop dodging their taxes. Along with China, Mexico, and Canada paying a 35% tariff to America for its exports, the EcOnOmY will flourish and increase the wages of hardworking American citizens.

I wish I were joking, but a lot of Trump voters actually believe that shit.

Source? I could use a good laugh.

And you do not speak for anybody other than yourself.

And yeah, insurance companies spend billions lobbying government, and that’s why running for office yourself is valuable, you can refuse to accept these donations. You need to find your own powerful group to get you elected (maybe labor unions?), because that’s how the game is played, but there are options if you’re laser focused on one type of policy.

I agree with the sentiment, but all the labor unions in the country couldn’t hold a candle to the potential damage a billionaire could do to an independent campaign, let alone a cabal of them. They don’t play fairly in politics, and they’re not above using advertising and media to direct a narrative that benefits their interests.

That’s not to say I’m endorsing violence. After seeing Bezos and Musk manipulate news media and social media, respectively, I just don’t have much hope in the system anymore.

The food and ingredients are the same, but the quality can vary a lot depending on how bad of job they do cooking it. When you’ve been disappointed enough by buying dry and borderline-burned breakfast, you stop trusting that all locations are equal.

If I’m stopping by somewhere out of town, yes. Food quality varies by location, and I’m not going to waste my money on an undercooked meal at McDonald’s when the competitor down the street is better.

The corporation? Definitely not. But review bombing and boycotting will hurt the profits of that franchised location, and its owner certainly will.

Considering how much money talks, I wouldn’t put it past “him” to take his own life in holding cell.

B- b- but, make America great again /s

To be charitable, other people can have different views on ethics.

For example, if harming a CEO who helped raise claim denial rates from less than 10% to 30% results in revised policies and less overall suffering, that could be morally justifable to some.
