I especially like that it's a recurring bit

There's plenty of people beyond saving, that's for sure: but I think people aren't so immutable. I think people are being made more monstrous by the capitalist system we live in, and the people at the top who exemplify avarice as a path to success. I'm not going to be buddies with ex maga unless they're really going the extra mile to make up for the damage they've done, but I hope at least some can be decent humans.

Yeah, and it also feels "forever ago" when you're that age. Literally half their lives. So I could understand them thinking it's "old news", but when you're an old and crusty 40 year old, you know that a 60 someone saying heinous shit means that person is deeply twisted.

It's exactly like the plan with Medicaid: burdensome bullshit paperwork makes people either just stop trying, or resent the government...making it far easier to reduce the capability of already meager social programs even further.

Why are you saying that is if it's contradictory? I know that Russia invaded Ukraine. I can see the horrifying details by watching drone videos. I can know something generally without knowing the details

I assumed the meme is related to high prices decades ago: for example, I remember saving up allowances to buy Star Fox 64, which cost about 70 bucks in the late nineties.

Fascinating! What other countries do you think would start taking over places without immigration laws?

What certain countries? And are you alleging there is a coordinated "take over"?

I get that it's legally wrong, but do you think it's ethically wrong?

What if someone thinks the laws and systems in place aren't morally perfect?

Fascinating, isn't it? Does he think the Democrats just "hate all things fossil" so much that there's some kind of integer overflow and it flips negative, and oil businesses do just fine entirely by accident?

It's truly astounding how well right wing propaganda gets folks to believe things that are so completely at odds with his own lived experience. None of us are immune to propaganda, I know, but that whole statement is just...fascinating

Oh I'm totally agreed! It's all capitalist, jingoist garbage, same as it ever was.
