You joke, but ... fore many white men these job prospects (cop, immigration office, jail guard) are a reality. The factories have all moved away. If you're a contractor, doing roofing or painting for example, you're competing against illegal immigrants that work under the table.
Don't worry the Dem's won't figure it out, LOL. The party is stuck in 1990.
"...all you have to offer young men is a lecture on their unearned privilege..." This, ten thousand times this. But, the Democratic party really has nothing to offer men ... please don't shoot the messenger. Blue collar work is hard, it chews up the body, saying you're bringing these jobs back isn't a recipe for hope.
Exactly this. A small organized group of ultra rich, making everyone's life miserable. Buying up social media, newspapers, TV and spreading their dumb propaganda. Fox 'news' started it, Musk kept going with Twitter.
Trump is fine with concentration camps. Who is going to staff them? If he forces the National Guard to do it, the people in the National Guard arn't going to be too happy, it's not fun work.
Could have settled into a northern Europe socialist type country. Good social safety net, good labor laws. Instead the country is going the way of petty, central American, dictatorships.
In a years time, will learn that rich billionaires like Elon Musk are propping up this stock. Think of all the speculators playing this stock because it's so volatile.
40 years of a recession will do that to a society. An entire generation fucked.
It's like the 80s all over again; Neo-Nazi's, bad adult VHS movies, drug epidemic, Trump.
Haha, Trump increased his shares to 1 Billion shares, from 78 million. Squeezig everyone else out.
Also, Truth Social values itself at $4Billion, LOL.
It seems nothing here smells right, from the valuation of the company to somehow Trump declaring he has 1 billions shares of the company.
Interesting to learn so much about how Fascism works, because of Trump. Making crazy statements, as a type of blind loyalty test is instinctual for fascist leaders. Alienates his followers from normal people, forces them to believe in even crazier things.
If you do enough crime, it's too hard to prosecute because no one knows where to start?
Except the parents aren't hippies but run a Yoga studio and make podcast to stay afloat, are apolitical and don't vote. Alex's only successful venture has been to transform his parents' yoga retreat into an oligarchs brothel catering to Russian billionaires and Chinese whales.
