  • The tariffs are absolutely fucking up our country right now, and I live in the US, and we absolutely deserve it. It’s affecting every single one of my projects (I work in an engineering/manufacturing company). Turns out 10-25% tariffs really cuts out a lot of the margin for people so we’ve had to significantly bump prices on aerospace components. This in turn will drive ticket prices up eventually as well. It’s also affecting our groceries. And then the side effects of all of it, is the boycotts from numerous countries. It’s absolutely crushing our trade.

    That said, all of the boycotts are absolutely fantastic. Keep it up. Our lead-addled half of the US needs to understand what isolationist policies do to our country. Maybe it’ll be the wake up call that people need to understand that international cooperation is the key to success.

    I always understood it as your immune system gets weaker from being in the cold and makes it easier for viruses and such to propogate in your body. We’re constantly fighting off minor infections and disease, and thankfully our immune systems are pretty strong…cold does not help it.

    I’d say this one is sort of true…in the right context.












  • Well, everyone is DEI if they aren’t a white man. The only people that should be employed in high-status jobs (according to the far-right) are white men. Anyone else that worked to get to that position, didn’t work anywhere near as hard as a white man… They were essentially given that position because they, again, aren’t white men.

    As a white man, these other white men have some frail egos and need to simmer down. The only thing that they have in their pathetic lives that they feel has any value is the color of their skin and the tube of meat they have dangling between their legs. They need to get over themselves and realize the world is a better place when we are multicultural.


  • Of course anyone that could rule against your Orange King couldn’t possibly have done so from just means. Such a victim.

    The mental hoops you guys jump through to convince yourselves that your cheat, conman, rapist is a holy man would be absolutely farcical, if it wasn’t so damn tragic. The fact you’ve come to this comment section and so vehemently defended your Orange God, on MULTIPLE THREADS, is PEAK LeFou. Begone Trumpian buttboy. Hope you wake up in a year or two and realize what an absolute tool you are.
