  • People thinking their clever by making up words that already have a meaning.

    “Lawfare” meaning chargingnrich white assholes for the crime they committed

    “Disinformatsiya” or however libs spelled it to mean pointing out the hypocrisy of American nationalists.

    “Sanewashing” to describe media putting their thumb on the scale for the fascist who wants to cut their taxes.

    It implies it’s a new phenomenon and not just the current version of whatever propoganda apparatus has been chugging along for decades.

    Liberals complain about “sanewashsing” and then in the same breath talk about how cheyney and bush weren’t exactly the fucking same as Trump.

    A few years ago I would immediatly leave if I saw a burger for more than $15 on a menu regardless of how many unnecessary toppings they had one it.

    Now it costs more than that for a plain cheeseburger with a 6 Oz patty.

    Idk how anybody is still eating out we can take the money we’d spend on a meal in a restaurant and cook something that’s better quality and we have leftovers for 2 days. The only benefits off eating out are to get cheap slop you would feel bad about cooking for yourself.














  • Tools and sports equipment especially if it’s something niche.

    People shit on harbor freight but if you need a new tool or something for a hobby it’s probably not something you’re going to use often if youve already soent any significant tiem doing that hobby.

    Buy the cheapest version of it and of you use it enough to either break it or figure out what parts of the design you don’t like it’s a good sign spending a little extra on a better version isn’t a waste.

    Especially getting into a new hobby avoiding the urge to buy expensive shit right at the beginning because you think it’ll make you better at the thing.

    The ambiguous ones at least have some discussion around it. The ones I’ve seen thenxouple times I had the misfortune of seeing them on Facebook were just straight up basic order of operations questions. They weren’t ambiguous, they were about a 4th grade math level, and all thenpeople from my high-school that complain that school never taught them anything were completely failing to get it.

    I’m talking like 4+1x2 and a bunch of people were saying it was 10.



  • Setting aside all the legal reason people have outlined its important to rmeber this is America.

    If a rich enough person wants you dead they’ll shoot you in the head on the front porch of your home in broad daylight in front of your neighbors and then the cops will say no crime happened and the news will say that person always lived there.

    Rich people can and do act however they want without consequences and our entire judicial system is just set up as a smokescreen to point to to tell poor people that isn’t the case.
