Agreed. Absolutely agreed.
She offered so little in the first place that the fact that she was told to offer even less with expectations that it would make her win the more desperate masses because it wasn’t anything “bad™” at least… It’s a huge statement on what they want to offer and what they expect in return:
The answer to both is simply, nothing.
Give nothing and expect nothing in return so that things hopefully stay the same. It’s a massive failing of politics right now.
That promise for housing gets misquoted as well as what she actually offered was:
First generation homebuyers who no one in their family has ever owned a house, after paying rent in a government approved rental firm for 2 years could get up to $25,000. And stated starter homes would cost between $300,000 and $800,000 dollars depending on location.
She did have a point to ask Congress to pass legislation to slow people buying more than 50 single family homes.
This was lost to her wealthy advisors telling her to not go through with these plans as they would impact the investment opportunities of housing.
She barely even got to flash before the DNC tried to reign in anything that might change things.
Yeah I’m not sure the sound I made was a laugh
So about the same time the dog is coming back from dog heaven Deicide?
These we’re all important questions and raises an important follow up.
When will the cornbread be ready?
I truly don’t understand the point of dropping an entire unrelated chatbot response as a comment.
You mistake your own thoughts for those of others. It’s a common bias to assume you are the norm for knowledge or emotional response.
There are plenty of people who absolutely do seek and enjoy violence on other people and there is plenty of history to back that up. As well as sports, boxing, and just general bar fights.
Because we forgot optimization in a world that celebrates maximalists and constant upgrades to feed shopping addictions that make people feel more in control of their space in a world with less and less opportunities for self determination.
When I remember I was the cool kid for having a 4GB flash drive that could fit all of my call of duty game and homework and I look at the 560GB games now that aren’t even as fun to play I think we have made some mistakes along the way that instead of prioritizing the experience of life we prioritize the ease of it.
Mine was my SOs grandmother’s Pentium PC from like 2003 until something just stopped in it. Like can’t even tell what is wrong with it cause it’s just inconsistently down and then back up.
So now it’s a small PC I got from eBay that came with like a free monitor and keyboard and stuff for like $60
Sure but notice they also told him up feet first so in case it fails to kill him he at least gets to make an insurance claim for his new pre-existing condition of mangled trolley legs.
I give fucks, unfortunately, about everyone, yourself included. That’s my stupidity.
You made a hail Mary of a decision and now you think it’s failing but you have already decided an outcome that isn’t anywhere close to reality. None of the things you worry about have yet to come to pass. Come up for air sometime but I won’t respond like this cause you need to be the one to come up.
And also I have a personal vendetta against suicide. It is apparently not very effective and really rather painful.
For your edit.
Not sure why people still bother talking to me once they realize I’m a worthless sack of shit
And stop this mope as a defense response to not being “perfect”. Just move on then. Nobody else is perfect and we don’t all throw in on life because of it. It’s like you aren’t even trying to learn from your mistakes and get better.
Even if others are sacks of shit they don’t off themselves either and we have to keep dealing with them whether they are attempting to get better or not cause they don’t go anywhere.
If you think you are a good person and someone disagrees you don’t just burn the city down to prove you were never good. It’s fucking pathetic and apathetic, you try to figure out how to be better.
Then get off the fucking Internet and focus on your family you dingus. Limit your scale to what you have control of and stop moving around here trying to solve everything or prove anything to any of us.
I responded because you called me a liar for stating facts. You constantly decide for others and double down on things stupider than this conversation as well. Fucking decide for your own life. If your goal is 100% making your daughter have the best life then make choices for that, dont continue with others who that’s not their goal.
You haven’t failed if you haven’t given up yet. Just change your tactic or your mind every once in a while. And yeah I will stop giving you the attention you crave now. Go deal with yourself. And I don’t mean that in the snarky way you are. Suicide fucking hurts, it’s physically a painful mess and it doesn’t fix anything it just means you stop the board without ever even trying to get more points and everyone else has to play on without you.
Do better than daydreaming about already failing.
Please bring this enrgy to someone other than me. It’s not that I am not sympathetic but I will not respond the ways you are looking for. I simply don’t have the emotional connection to provide either spectrum of a response.
You responded to them pointing out it was rude by saying, that you said, they could try too. And then that they likely would fail, immediately after.
It’s mean. It’s manipulative and it’s degrading to others. If you are doing that to yourself at least don’t do it to others. Unfortunately even when the world is rough and the inside of our heads hate us we are still responsible for what we do and say.
Even this.
Voters wanted a fascist dictator. That is clear. And now they will pay for it because the other option wasn’t perfect enough. 1
The time to have done something about it was in November. But feel free to try. 2
I’m not going through your post history to find more but you do have a history of talking down to others and treating the rest of the nation like it’s owed this when it could just be a travesty for a lot of people who also didn’t want this to happen. It doesn’t comfort everyone to relinquish control and you just recently told someone else the time to do anything was in November and your apology was, lacking an apology. It’s very self defeating, and worse it’s socially accepting defeat for the rest of us.
Also, wow. Honestly don’t come at me while talking yourself down like that. It’s miserable and not in a way that inspires empathy either. Your standards may be way to high. I’ve had people tell me I’m the kindest person ever and they look up to me for bringing over fresh baked bread and some veggies from the garden. Nothing done is worthless especially if it’s done with others in mind.
You have your own issues that I don’t want to be dragged into, and it’s clear that continuing will either make me complicit in making your mood worse or worse be a beacon for it and there is so little than can be done over the Internet for either.
Go find a cool stick and give it a swing. Maybe give someone a hug too.
You have said that you are out the mess through the system, not entirely true, but through a privilege of the system. I have seen your other comments around telling people that there is no more action that can be taken and that this was the only choice but for most people the ONLY choice IS to stay.
Just because it’s not working out for you doesn’t mean it wasn’t a privilege. The amount of people that could walk that path that you are taking is again very small.
I’m sorry that it’s not working out like you hoped but going around telling people the only way out is apathetic leaving to another country and then to now feel bad for you for. I can only offer my general empathy for dealing with struggles but I have no other for you. Not while you still seem to admonish everyone else without the same privilege you don’t recognize.
I didn’t say that. I was pointing out the privilege of your statement when you offer that as a solution to this issue.
You can use the idea that anyone pointing it out is some villain who would have your family hurt but that’s not reality. It’s just an emotional response to protect your mindset. That’s fine. Don’t treat me poorly because of it though. You already got more privileges than the queer people left behind who may be in what you fantasize and have nightmares of.
It’s not a sacrifice if we can’t leave. It’s just reality. Something you have a privilege to alter to ignore.
Doesn’t mean that people weren’t desperate for an alternative. People don’t have the knowledge you do and often don’t think through every possible outcome. If they know they are suffering and there is a chance for change they will leap towards it even if it’s out of the pot and into the fire. Humans crave change and the status quo has been used as a cludgel against them for decades.
You can be upset that this is the change that’s happening but don’t blame people that are suffering and try not to be smug about it when they suffer more or they will never view you as kind to their plight.
Yeah that’s taking advantage of a privilege that practically zero other people have to flee to a safer distance from the problem. That isn’t helping clean up the mess and doesn’t entirely fully remove you from it.
It allows you to claim you aren’t involved because you stay uninvolved but it’s not the same as being helpful or even being offerable advice to anyone else other than a percentage so small it rounds down to zero.
Am I winning?
