So you’re angry that the poor are choosing the cheap option (🤔) because it helps the wealthy win? You’re righteously indignant because they ignored that “Doing without is an option” and decided to spend some entertainment dollars in a way of their own choosing?
Ok, but I don’t really find that very convincing.
Let’s not forget we’re dealing with the Administration that lied about Hatian immigrants eating pets, and when called on it the VP (candidate at the time) said, "If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do.”
This is straight up victim blaming.
That’s fair! Stories like this remind me that not every single thing is going in the wrong direction, just yet.
I’m worried that there’s an additional layer of meaning here that is too deep for me.
Thanks, I edited the title and body!
100% I got it! 🙂 I just feel the need to correct that whenever I see it because from time to time you see a maga who knows what nazi stands for, and likes to “remind” everyone that the nazis were “socialists”, but they usually don’t know or don’t admit the rest.
(not that I thought you were doing so at all!)
Edit: LOL I actually didn’t get it when I typed that, but I really do now, sorry for my comprehension issues!
With the exception of extremes like nazism, a leftist government would allow
With no disagreement intended to your overall points, I feel compelled to mention that Nazis were not/are not leftists by any means, and that although the word “Socialist” is right in there, this was because Hitler co-opted the name.
I’m sure there are better articles than this one, but it was the one I could find the quickest: https://www.snopes.com/news/2017/09/05/were-nazis-socialists/
Not a meme
There, I commented it for you this time.
Good point that makes sense!
Sure, but if fetuses are people, you should be able to take out a policy at about 6 weeks.
Perhaps I’ll retire there as a dental floss tycoon. Sounds like a good place.
I bet I know what you typed, and if so I bet I know why you deleted it, and it was the first thing I thought of too, and I laughed, and it was funny in 1984, but I agree it might not go over well today. 😄
The reason I’m making all these guesses is that’s also the reason I didn’t use a different screenshot with more famous dialogue from that scene.
Ghostbusters tried to warn us but did we listen?
I truly cannot fathom what gigantic pieces of shit Republicans are.
They are so cartoonishly, overtly evil. The fact that they can exist as they do and yet we’re all just getting up and going to work every day has got me considering “simulation theory” more seriously than I ever could have otherwise.
It feels like someone modded the game in between one level and the next.
It’s literally the reason the cover exists. To entice you to judge it positively and pick up the book for a closer look.
Whenever I hear anyone say that, I conclude it’s one of those things that somehow meant something slightly different when the phrase was coined. Either that or we’re all just a bunch of goobers.
