Depression and social media use is also a fatal combination, a lot of people online really shouldn’t be for their own sake.

Linux Mint is easy af, that or Ubuntu

Say this literally every time you have a chance, the data overwhelmingly show that Republicans are bad for the economy

His national security advisor Michael Flynn, https://www.foxnews.com/politics/flynn-was-paid-67g-by-russian-interests-documents-say

So, once again Republicans are living up to the promise that every accusation or attack they make on others is an admission of their own guilt

So, things like this prove that the U.S. GDP is a made up spreadsheet illusion.

It might be that FEMA and DOE cutbacks are something both Republicans and Democrats want. Otherwise I cannot think why these politicians are speed running ruining institutions which ultimately lead to economic productivity.

Helping people live in a stable condition after a disaster (FEMA) leads to more productivity.

Helping workers be educated and skilled leads to more productivity.

It seems like someone wrote a plan on how to effectively make America lose its economic power, and Republicans are just eating it up.

In some categories, but overall Dem voters get more income. I think most wealthy donors skew Republican, which is rational. Why shouldn’t they vote for self-preservation? No one justifies to these wealthy donors that no one wants a handout.

People, regardless of their socioeconomic status, should be taxed appropriately for the resources they use. If your business is generating billions in revenue, and your net worth is multi mill+, you got a lot of benefit from the civilized order of society. That’s basically what your taxes are for. Well, that and human potential is worth investing in as that’s how we got so far here. It would be great to go further instead of boiling to death in some war torn, poverty stricken wasteland, but I digress.

Here’s some data on income by party, I can’t speak to the quality of the source: https://www.thehivelaw.com/blog/average-income-republican-vs-democrat-by-political-party/

If the Republicans are so worried about the Democrats looking good by helping people, then Republicans would be first in line showing they can put partisan politics aside to work together. Instead they’re using lies and misinformation, so it seems their agenda is something else. It almost seems the goal is to weaken and break the American people.

Every bit of legislation meant to relieve economic burdens off the working class has been voted against Republicans in congress

It does, but the media machine is geared more towards storytelling than reporting or journalism

Anyone who thinks they’re the “good” immigrant who Trump wouldn’t think of like this, I have a bridge to sell you…

Just tapping that linuxsy

What’s good about Amazon anyway? It’s better to get stuff directly from a sellers site, even better if they’re indie. There’s not much value to prime shipping anymore, most sellers are pretty good about it now ironically because of Amazon. Using services like Amazon just creates more pollution, wage depression and small business closures. Use services like Amazon less, favor indie and small and fair wage businesses

It’s less about favoring Republicans and more about the fact that the U.S. does not have ranked choice voting, or more than two viable parties, so it becomes an all or nothing team sport

How is 37% half?

Last time Republicans won the popular vote was because of 9/11, so 2004, but they always lost otherwise since 1988. The racism and sexism are open wounds from the civil rights movement in the 60s and the women libs movement in the 70s. Most of the red voting states are super low population, so there’s no love for republicans other than their gerrymandering and electoral college fixing.

I am pretty sure Trump is winning it in 2024 because of the way some of the swing states are removing access to voting. It’s such a fucking fraud

Trumps pov is easy to understand, and so he’s easy to buy. You only need to stroke Trumps ego and speak his language and he’s on your side. That’s why Republican politicians think they can control him, except he’s too neurotic and unstable, likely because of narcissism made worse by dementia.

No one really votes for Republicans, that’s why they have to gerrymander and keep the electoral college alive. There’s like maybe 35%-37% of the American pop. which really supports their pov. The swing states are only ever an issue because of voter disenfranchisement, not because people actually swing. Very few people actually swing vote.

It’s like they’re using an abusive spouse handbook to make policies lmao

Is this post sane-washing Russia? What’s left about Russia under Putin? Overall funny, though

Republicans have become terrorists, what a disgrace
