The US could have bought its way out of Covid. But they would have had to value their own citizens lives above going out to eat.

The unemployment benefits could have been higher. They could have implemented UBI. Put a pause on non-essential work. Raised minimum wage for a wide variety of industry. And spent 2020-2021 improving buildings with better ventilation, in preparation for re-opening. Instead we had open-up protests and horse dewormer paste being sold to even bigger idiots.

White supremacy is a death cult

Sweet

lol, lmao even

Can the admins/mods running movies, schedule a Battle of Algiers showing?

I remember listening to “It Could Happen Here” by Robert Evans and, boy, seeing freidkrops rough up college students is definitely an escalation that’s not gonna backfire in any way.

she has a 2012 Camaro.

My wife’s car is about to hit 100k and we wanted to sell it, but instead we are in a holding pattern due to 9% interest on CAR LOANS. And because it keeps breaking down, we are now reducing our spending and accumulating “emergency funds”. It sucks fucking shit.

This has been one of the most wild things about the universities responses to these protests. Most of them are breaking their own internal rules with the way they’re responding! Most universities have both a student government and faculty senate (staff can get fucked) and at most universities those two bodies have to be consulted at some level before you can do things like call in outside cops and mass suspend/expel students.

Rules are there to hollow out your fucking soul through continuous interaction with bureaucratic committees where almost everyone there, doesn’t want to be there. So it just grinds down any suggestions into limp biscuits.

The Country of the Week is the United States!

Your refusal to net me views and subscribers is literal violence, oh my goyad!

Trying not to trip on a treadmill from laughing when Hobsbawm calls English “practical men” as a dunk.

I finally watched/finished Come and See. You’d definitely want to kill that guy, Steven Universe.

Listening to Hobsbawmn “Age of Capital 1848-1875” while on my daily hamster wheel period.

Big props to the student protesters that are setting up media liaisons and making white female agitators cry, because they can’t quote, dox, or misinform their audience, because students refuse to engage and point them to their official spokesperson.

No

There is a libertarian subsection in this country that makes a stink about SWATs raiding raw milk producers. And individuals that tout the benefit of drinking it unpasteurized.

Typical U.S Government response.

Tunisia, a man sets himself on fire due to injustice by the government. The country’s students start to revolt. They overthrow the government.

America, an anarchist sets himself on fire due to injustice by the government. The country’s students star to revolt. They just need to .
