Seit wann wird Einkommenssteuer auf den Nettolohn erhoben?

Wird sie natürlich nicht. Ich zeige ja nur, was 65.000 brutto bedeutet, im Verhältnis. Die Website macht den Vergleich mit Netto Gehältern, daher habe ich es auf Netto umgerechnet. Und im Verhältnis ist man damit schon sehr eindeutig deutlich reicher als die meisten Deutschen.

Außerdem sind deine Zahlen zum Haushaltseinkommen, die Einkommenssteuer wird jedoch auf jedes einzelne Einkommen berechnet

Darum habe ich auch nur eine Person eingestellt.

Ja, ich war da auch überrascht. Finde die Website aber super um eine realistische Idee zu bekommen, was ein Gehalt im Verhältnis ist.

Im not a native English speaker and I thought "lost my legs" was an idome of some sort, especially because you wrote it in the same sentence as beeing a single father.

But no. You lost your legs. Litarly.

In regards to the rest of your post, absolutely 100 % on your side. I met my wife 2 years ago and it is the most beautiful relationship I ever had, mainly because we treat each other with the same amount of respect.

Shut the fuck up, you take that back right now bitch.

Absolutely. I try to counter it by beeing aware and checking M opinions against facts where possible. But I am sure there are many topics where I don't fully succeed or I haven't caught myself doing it yet.

I honestly don't see how I am or was screaming at you and u apologise if it came across as such. You are stating your opinion, which you indeed are entitled too. I am stating why I disagree. I am not attacking you as a person, or trying to belittle you for it. I simply don't think it beneficial (for the left) to hold the view you have stated without evidence.

Trump is a con man and a liar, absolutely. But for pulling of something on this scale it needs way, way more than one person. And all of them would have to hold tight, no leaks what so ever. That just doesn't sound realistic to me. I do hold the view hat we should base our opinions in fact, not speculation. I don't mean this as an attack. Ist just my view.

I am also not accusing you or anyone of beeing in cult.

I said it before to another person here, I'll say it again: I understand how you, how we all are angry, hurt, devasted even after this election. I share those emotions very much.

I still don't think we should copy the behaviour of the other side. I know you feel justified in your option. So do they. That doesn't make it more or less true though. Cult like would leave no room for discussion what so ever tough. I think we have that room, and are engaging in it right now. I think indeed the very fact that we are able to exchange opinions on this shows how this is very much not a cult.

Ich kann auch was zu Mädchen sagen, die ins männliche Geschlecht wechseln wollen, ist aber ein eigenes Thema und viel seltener, daher nicht mein Schwerpunkt hier.

Die erste überprüfbare Aussage die du raushaust, die nicht nur Geschwurbel ist (wie der Rest) und direkt einfach Blödsinn.

Of the 1.3 million adults who identify as transgender, 38.5% (515,200) are transgender women, 35.9% (480,000) are transgender men, and 25.6% (341,800) reported they are gender nonconforming.

One person is not a conspiracy theory

Sure, but you are not the only person here, who is taking that narrative.

Sure Trump is a fucking Bastard. But we hit quite hard on the right for speeding their conspiracy "stolen election" shit in 2020. I just don't think it's sensible to turn that around. With clear cut evidence: sure thing. But just making the accusation... Na, not so much.

That's fair, and I'm sorry to have been an asshole about it.

No worries. We all have to cope with this some way or another and sometimes that mean beeing a bit of an asshole. I don't take it personal, I understand where you are coming from.

I question the fact that nearly 1 in 2 Latino voters voted to deport themselves

Latin are a conservative bunch by nature. Many of the progressiv view the left hold, regarding for example masculinity and feminism, stand in contrast to their culture. (This is a very broad statement that does not aplly to all Lations!) And many think that it's not going to be them that will be deported, it will he those Mexican drug smugglers. Which is a delusional view to hold, in my opinion. Same fore for queer folk voting red. But it is want it is and the data we have from polling and voting do add up in regards to Lations.

I find it difficult to believe that 15+ million other voters who showed up to vote for Joe Biden, didn't show up to vote for Harris.

Yes, that's hard to swallow, I agree. Maybe it's because the last vote happened with Corona in the backdrop? Maybe Trumps many Errors where much more fresh on the mind of so many. Maybe inflation kept people from trusting the Democrats. Maybe some just won't vote for a female. Or a black person. Or, god forbid, both. Lots of possible reasons. I do think we should try to understand them and filter them on in the future.

This is the most politicized election we've had in over a century, nobody didn't hear about this.

Yes, but that means you also listen to 2 party's accusing one another of beeing the devil / literaly Hitler for one year plus. I see how people who are not that interested in politics can get numb to this.

because by the time I woke up after election night everyone had already decided none of the Dems showed up and Trump had won, when according to gov websites the final vote tally and certification isn't even until mid December.

This realy sound exactly what republicans said in 2020.

I've never seen election results get called so early that I can remember.

That's because they were realy very obvious this time. It didn't come down to just a couple of votes in swingstates like in 2020.

According to this 2016, 2012 and 2008 where called on simular schedules or earlier. 2020 was an outline because of the amount of mail in votes.

I saw three different news stories about conservatives setting ballot boxes on fire. Our gerrymandering maps are so bad they can be confused for TV static from a distance. Millions of people had their voting registration purged by state level conservatives weeks or days before the election.

All of there are fair points, and they should be handled in two ways: Take evidence to the courts where illegal things happend. And try to change the system where fraud has been made legal.

Regarding both points i think it is a very real possibility that the window to deal with them is past and the Trump administration will solidify and widen them. This might have been our last fair election.

My only hope is that it goes like last time and they are at each other's throuts for 4 years or just to incompetent to do to much that has lasting damaged. But I'm not betting on that. I think this time they will come prepared. And it will be the end of America as it is now.

"Going forward, to build a breakthrough Twitter 2.0 and succeed in an increasingly competitive world, we will need to be extremely hardcore," Musk wrote in the all-staff email. "This will mean working long hours at high intensity. Only exceptional performance will constitute a passing grade."

This is so fucking cringy.

You know, I tough it might be good to fact-check this screenshot. It might be missrepresenting something. So I did a little digging and it turns out that this is based on a document provided by the Republican Study Committee (about three quateres of house rebuplicans are members).

I read the ~~Dokument~~ document (you can find it here) and HOLY HELL THIS IS THE WORST THING I HAVE READ IN A LONG WHILE.

It's so full of lies, half-truths and so, so, so much finger pointing to the "woke socialist Biden Administration" (yes, that is a quote), so removed from reality... It was painfull to read. There is so much utter nonsense in that one document.

Anyhow. The headline is dead on. And it's far far from the worst thing that they are proposing.

I need to bang my head against a wall now untill i have erased the memory of reading this bullshit.
