When you surround yourself with all these people, it's for a reason. You have Nazis over for Thanksgiving for a reason. You enjoy their company and think alike.

Usually pretty good gas prices. If you travel a lot in a gas powered vehicle that alone makes it worth it.

Costco is a good, fair company. They pay well, and treat employees with respect.

There's not a whole lot "left" about them. Real leftists are very concerned with equality for all, always.

The Russian government does not prioritize the safety of its own citizens or others. It uses its citizens by the hundreds of thousands as cannon fodder in the war against Ukraine. They could not care less about human lives. This is a savage and dangerous country.

They have adjusted quantities so they are unrealistic now. You need a pair of underwear for $4? Nope. You'll have to buy 6 for $20 that will probably last a couple of months.

Matt Damon: “A teacher wants to teach.” The son of a public school teacher, he defends teachers as heroes we should be grateful for rather than villains we should be threatening to punish — as pro-privatization forces would have us believe.

Want to know how manufactured the rage against trans athletes participating in NCAA sports is? According to the NCAA, there are approximately 510k athletes in collegiate sports, and less than TEN identify as transgender. Fucking 10. For the record, that is 0.0000196078% #USDemocracy

We should all have the backs of Amazon and Starbucks workers who are on strike this holiday season. They deserve better pay, hours, working conditions, and union recognition. Their greedy bosses should stop being Grinches, and grow hearts.

Elon Musk gives nod to German far-right party as election looms
U.S. billionaire Elon Musk, set to join President-elect Donald Trump's administration, waded into Germany's election campaign on Friday, calling the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) the country's saviour.

President Musk knows what's good for you. You may think you know—you may think you have the ability to decide whether or not your current representative is serving you well—but you're wrong. A South African plutocrat with little education actually knows whether your family is being well represented.

Well, now isn’t this cute? Missouri’s billionaires have created their own little project 2025. You’ll notice much of the devious plan has to do with defunding education. Privatizing public schools. Sending taxpayer money to private religious schools. Its a scam. showmeinstitute.org/wp-content/u...

I've never understood why rich people care at all about a little more taxes. They'll never even notice it. They spend a lot more on stupid crap they'll never use. Tbh, middle class and poor people won't notice their tax money much either. In the grand scheme, it wouldn't change much.

‼️All dictatorships are fragile‼️ The catastrophic, avalanche-like crumbling of Assad's regime has demonstrated yet again how unstable dictatorships really are. Only representative democracies, founded on freedom of choice and social contract are the foundation of stability and peace in the world.
