So extrapolating, only 75 million Americans would be better off working in a factory? Wouldn’t elevating the bottom give negotiating power to those next to the bottom? What’s the point of this post?

Having lived in China, I can say China is largely self sufficient and Chinese tariffs on American goods isn’t going to hurt the American economy as much as other aspects of a trade war such as quitting their policy to buy American debt. That said, China does import a shit ton of grain and oil (both cooking and crude), some tech stuff, some cars, and a good amount of aircraft parts, and 40 something films a year see box office releases in China. So certain industries will be hit but specifically related to tariffs and only tariffs, China losing access to the American market is worse for their economy. But by no means is it good for the American economy and tariffs aren’t the only weapon in a trade war.
Sorry to get pedantic, but it’s the internet here.
Trump is a clown but this tweet isn’t entirely accurate. Members of the Chinese government have been saying for weeks they are willing to meet and negotiate trade terms and it’s been Trump that has been blowing them off until now. Maybe Trump wanted a more humbled, desperate, and less proud Chinese to beg to kiss Trumps ring, but the Chinese were incensed by the hostility and basically said, we’ll talk with you but we’ll also play hardball if that’s how you want to play it *shrug.
To name a few things, they improved the processing power, storage, screen, attachment method of the joycons, dock, placement of charging cable (located both top and bottom), in-game chat.
I’m not going to buy one cause the pricepoint and the fact that “physical copies” of games are going to be empty cases with keys, which might be able to be lent or resold until Nintendo decides against it or kills the system for verifying them, but they did make a number of improvements that would have opened up my wallet once again if they hadn’t let greed win the day.
I got a feeling in my gut that the switch 2 is going to do pretty well and I kind of hate that. Or if it does fail to meet expectations it’ll likely be cause the tariffs and not because Nintendo’s greed.
If she stuck to her convictions with her hostile approach to the democratic party as she had with her first term this would be great news. But the current iteration of AOC kind of really sucks. But maybe less than Schumer…
I think pet implies some level of affection. Pretty sure to them we’re just livestock.
I totally forget this one when I saw the US has been here before.
True. I was couching it for the .world and .works folks around.
While not angels during or after the war, Russia took the brunt of the Nazi war machine and deserves credit for their contributions for ending the war.
Are we hating on Linus here or agreeing with him? I’m so out of the loop.
I would have also allowed annexing.
When did they deport the gazans?
Yes, both of them at the double tree inn obviously
Yeah, it’s better than their outright genocide but as you point out returning to the previous status quo isn’t great…
Biden is such a joke.
also whoever designed it so I can’t easily select and copy email addresses or other text on the page! Outlook is the worst offender for figuring out what to click just to copy an email but they all are terrible.
It’s easy to take the piss out of magaheads cause obviously they were being swindled by a person and ideology that in no way threatens power and it’s fun too. Wait… what was the point I was trying to make? Oh yeah, some of them will be disillusioned with the growing amount of contradictions and the left will can organize and pick some folks up, which would be neat. I don’t know though, I’m not an organizer, just a shittalker online. so… yeah.
It’s not the drunkest I’ve been but it was a funny time, in college we were drinking 151 around a fire in the woods. I brownout and when I come to I am about 3ft off the ground suspended in the air by a Holly bush. No idea wtf I was doing and no one was around when I got stuck there but I called out for help and fortunately a gargantuan friend was able to pluck me out of those bushes. 😂 Good times.
