ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 18/06/2025The medical industry is failing these kids. You are supporting irrevocable harm. Your spot in hell is reserved. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 24/03/20254 yrs of absolutely terrible cabinet member performance under Biden and not a single one was fired. Spare me the hypothetical. 250
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Are we still counting as a covid death any death that includes a positive PCR test within several days of death? 010
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Imagine this scenario: Poor kid wants a job. Willing to take it at $8/hr to get the experience and then move up to better job. Employer willing to hire kid at $8/hr. Not willing to pay more. What do you say to the kid? A) Tough luck kid. Keep looking. B) It's for the greater good. 400
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Everyone on Medicare and Medicaid are super healthy, right? 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Free? What tax rate are you willing to pay to support tax funded healthcare? 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Because the govt paying for everyone's healthcare (via taxes paid by taxpayers) will make everyone healthier? 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024No American should have to choose between paying for someone else's healthcare and putting food on the table. It's that simple. 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024I know you're being sarcastic, but I agree. Anyone screaming pandemic should be treated skeptically. 110
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Under age 65 the survival rate was >99.9%. Screeching that world was going to end didn't do him any favors. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Call me crazy but screeching "Holy Mother of God" probably wasn't the best approach to getting people to listen to you. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024How should we manage a pandemic? 120
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024It definitely takes balls to make shit up. 020
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024It's not a disgrace. Workers earning min wage are most often unskilled young labor getting their first job. Preventing those people from getting into the workforce b/c of artificially high min wages would only hurt the people you're trying to help. 800
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Why do you want to prevent someone unskilled from getting into the workforce? Do you not like poor people? 010

ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024I knew about airlines but not railroad and trucking. While his was generally not a successful presidency, those three moves have had massive positive impact on our lives. 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024His greatest contribution was deregulating airlines, trucking, and railroads. Absolutely nothing else he did comes close in terms of impact to all Americans. 110
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024I'm not following. Is this a criticism? 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024That's ridiculous. He has no executive branch authority and no legislative authority. 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024Those are not inconsistent tweets. 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 30/12/2024You are advocating for a model that requires a change in human nature. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Harris would have lost by a wider margin had she done more podcast interviews. The Dems have an ideology problem, not a messaging problem, and they had an objectively unqualified candidate trying to message a failed ideology. It wasn't going to work no matter what. 020
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Well it's good that we don't have that problem. We have 535 people we elect to decide that. Do you guys not know how our system of govt works? 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024The owner(s) reap the rewards because they risked their capital. If reward doesn't accrue to risk takers, people stop taking risks. If people stop taking risks, economies stop growing. If economies stop growing, everybody is worse off. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Canada is too weak to punch back. 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024No, he was a straight up retard. 200
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024I suggest you work on your health. The human body is amazing at fighting infection if you take care of it. 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024You were wrong AF about COVID. I think we'll safely ignore you about this one. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024What do you suggest? Try the same thing we did last time but earlier and harder? 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024It has been shared, in the form of salary in exchange for the time and skills. Employees and society have taken no risk with their money. No investment in the world comes with all reward, no risk. Returns accrue to people who take risk with their capital. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024No, the $112M is the entirety of his compensation inclusive of his signing bonus and stock options granted to entice him to leave his previous employer. 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 29/12/2024It's only a matter of time before the DEI fad fades into nothingness. 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Do you have any concerns with the unelected Biden admin staff making decisions about American citizens? Or the unelected exec branch bureaucrats? 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Congressman, have you read any of the legislation that is behind the H-1B program? (BTW, It's H-1B, not H1-B.) 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Why are the union's demands not greed? 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024The $112M compensation covers a multi-year period. Let's say he lasts 5 yrs and gets all of that. Having no costs associated with the CEO and redistributing it would give every Starbucks employee an extra $61.91 per year. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024What was the CEO's alternative if he didn't like the terms of the deal? 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Applauding someone's murder is not a good look whether you are advocating for more or not. You don't to live in a society that tolerates or excuses cold-blooded murder. 400
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024The right wage is what one party is willing to pay and the other is willing to accept. An observer without a stake in the outcome has no business opining on the appropriateness of that wage. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Someone who can afford yachts isn't doing it on expense (salary) extracted from a company. They are doing it on asset growth that they cash in. And to get the asset growth, profits of the company need to increase. And for profits to increase, you need to keep expenses low and revenue high. 110
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Oh no, a clerical error? Can't imagine the horror. 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Because when you increase the wages of a large number of people it makes the company noncompetitive and eventually drives it out of business, at which point wages go to zero for everybody. 100
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 28/12/2024And the last four years have been disciplined, calm, and thoughtful? 000
ridiculus-sum.bsky.social @ridiculus-sum.bsky.social · 26/12/2024He is a sociopath. He didn't save anyone. He killed people. 020
