Anybody has the video? I wanna know if this is real and if it is I wanna see them try to spin that the bad way.
Health care ? Stable economy ? You really want that ?
You’ll end up just like Boomers with fancy “pensions” and “cabins” and happy grandkids DO YOU REALLY want tha… yeah that sounds pretty pretty pretty good.
Soon enough it’s going to be “Food? Clean water? Those aren’t in the constitution, that’ll be 50 dollars for that small bag of rice, cash or klarna?”
If you see this and think these things are bad things to have in your country, you are seriously fucked in the head and I hope you die a horrible death from colon cancer.
Terry? 🤔
What blows my mind is that basically all of these fit in with fiscal conservative ethos.
- Healthcare would benefit the most from economy of scale, which is the bedrock of corporation above the mom and pop level.
- Education is literally capital reinvestment for sustained growth.
- Housing is a commodity like like any other.
- 32 hour work weeks are scientifically proven to increase productivity and decrease Fraud, Waste, and Abuse.
- Taxation is another instance of capital reinvestment for sustained growth. Hell, it’s (demi-god of capitalism) Henry Ford’s “pay the line workers enough to buy my products”.
- The Green New Deal is not quite as cut and dry, but there is plenty of both “leveling the playing field to promote free market competition” against fossil fuel subsidies AND capital reinvestment.
Palestine opens a whole other can of billions of dollars of foreign government spending separate from the ethical concerns, which is less clear cut on market economics and would need to be an essay by itself. So I will just stick with the 6 out of 7 low hanging fruits for this argument, and mock the completely not fiscally conservating mess the Republican party has become.
Green New Deal is also incredibly sound economics and conservative ethos. Economically speaking, which is better: something you have to spend a bunch of time and effort mining for and then can only ever use it once or something you spend a bit more effort mining and manufacturing, but then can receive gains off your investment for decades? Gains that exceed your initial investment well before expected end of life.
The conservatives abandoned ethos long ago in favor of being against everything the progressives are for.
One of the bits that blew my mind was watching foreign politics and learning other countries have right wings further left than our own left. Fucking Overton windows.
Healthcare would benefit the most from economy of scale
would it? i’ve had far worse experience in large medical systems than i have in small clinics.
From a customer service standpoint, no, but I was talking about the cost perspective. A single payer system financing small clinics would be the best answer here, getting rid of the corporate hospital impersonality while keeping costs low. If a doctors office doesn’t have to deal with the insurance middle men and pharmacy middle men who are parasitically draining the system, you will have more neighborhood clinics and hospitals that care about their city’s residents.
OMG, they used the red background color! PANIC!!!

omg. unthinkable! I’d much prefer to go bankrupt from uni and/or getting sick! THIS IS UNTHINKABLE!

The older generation is so selfish they don’t want the younger generations to get something “easier” than they think they had it. “I walked uphill both ways in the snow” kind of thinking. Most privileged generation.
Good luck being distracted by age. That’s almost as bad as red/blue state bullshit. Sure, the people in power in those states is making a difference, but my point is there’s a huge mix of people in every state. And in the same way, there’s plenty of old progressives and young fascists.
Constantly putting this crap on older generations implies you’re one of the ones hoping the problem will die off.
It won’t.
And distracting you from realizing that is the big reason for the push for “boomers” to equal “evil”. There’s a lot of idiot evil boomers, but there’s plenty of young idiot evil fascists.
The problem ain’t gonna die itself away. We must fight.

Critical Thinking Skills are the best offense against propaganda.
I’ve been hearing that the Republican Party will wither from attrition as they all die off for 50 fucking years. We should be free of them by now, but instead they’ve taken over everything.
I always tell people to remember back to that first big protest in Chancellorville, when all those neo-Nazi fuckwits marched in with their tiki torches, chanting “Jews will not replace us”. ALL those weenies were under 40 years old. Rush Limbaugh and all the other psychopathic propagandists have been great at recruiting and indoctrinating new psychopaths into their ranks, and replacing all the old psychopaths that finally got dragged to Hell.
You don’t understand Christianity. Christianity is the religion of the police state. Revelation 22:15 encapsulates the notion of how the sinners are surrounded, with everyone who loves AND practices lying (not TO) being the undercover cops. Jesus’ crucifixion let us see who the idoltarers were, and cost one Roman soldier with a spear a promotion. I guarantee those tiki torch fuckers were 80% cops. The Proud Boys are feds. I know this because the joke is I had to be a crackhead because I wasn’t good enough to be a pothead, which is a festival cop.
Thinking in labels is inherently dualistic thinking. The brain processes entanglements, and it is möbiated entanglements, that which the Buddhists called “defiled” that manifest the illusion of the self. This is giving a string a half-twist to create dualistic dichotomy (inner/outer). A form of möbiation that would take a minute to explain, but can be summed up in the phrase orthogonal relativity, and this picture, is what allows the brain to process an eleven dimensional topological matrix. Yer a knot, Neo. Enlightenment is being the effect before the cause - developing your prefrontal cortex to predict and outclass the animal parts of the brain, and resolving all karmic debt to demöbiate all your mind back into a unified field of entanglements.
This is sorta the same defense as “#NotAll(X)”. Because, like, yeah, obviously there are plenty of older progressives. But… The issue at hand here is one of power. Older generations have more wealth on average and hold more conservative views on average. It’s sorta on them to use their positions to make lives easier on those younger and less fortunate than themselves, and unfortunately for the rest of us, they are less likely to do so. And I say this with a boomer grandma doing her fucking best protesting outside ICE facilities.
To pretend there isn’t an age bias is silly. To pretend there is only an age bias is also silly. But it does exist, interrelated to wealth and power disparities that everyone is suffering from. So, you know, fuck boomers. If you don’t like hearing that, then really reflect on what that says about you.
In closing, yeah, the problem won’t simply die away, but I ain’t gonna pretend it doesn’t help, even if it isn’t every boomer’s fault.
The point that you are glossing over and dismissing as a minor one is Central to my theme: the problem is not going to die itself away.
Most of the people riding off boomers assume that all the youngsters are progressives. They are not.
Nowhere did I say boomers are equally as progressive as any other group. There’s a reason I didn’t say that. There’s a reason I said the other things that I said.
Last night at dinner boomer maga: “why aren’t the kids drinking anymore?” Me: well we got like 10 jobs and have no time so i imagine they have like 20 jobs even less… “we used to go to work hungover”… oooooookay
How about getting a single DUI will absolutely ruin your life? I’m so paranoid about drinking that I NEVER drink when I’m out for dinner. If a cop pulls me over, I want to be able to say “I haven’t had a single drop to drink.”
Besides, what’s wrong with people drinking less? Not smoking and drinking are two of the best things you can do for your life. This guy wants young people to fuck up their lives, so that he feels better about fucking up his?
It’s funny that you think not having a drop to drink will prevent the cops from arresting you for DUI with a 0.0 breathalizer anyway and the DA from prosecuting you despite an additional 0.0 blood test.

If you just give someone a Palestine for free, what incentive will they have to work?
Principle’s office. Now.
The way to remember if it’s “principal” or “principle” is that the one that’s a person is your princi-pal.
if i ever get a free palestine, u can be damn sure im putting it on display on my god damn fanciest shelf
Free Palestine? Hell, I’ll take two!
I don’t know, have you seen it lately? It’s a Fixer Upper.
