Someone explain to me how this is different from Doug Ford saying he’s going to give tenants “an opportunity to renegotiate their lease” every year?
It’s just mechanized poverty.

Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

I feel like I have to smoke myself out just to tolerate being conscious anymore, and I have to go to three fucking Christmas parties this year and mask my way through them, and I just do not know how I’m going to do that.

My position is Democrats don't make their own politicians fear for their lives as a consequence of betraying them and that's why there's no accountability.
Also just so everyone is crystal clear the democrats knew that they were going to fold the entire time and only waited until the won the elections to bury their bad acts.

I wake up and every day is worse than the day before, and I have no reason to believe it will ever get better.
What are any of us supposed to do? I only get out of bed because there’s a gun to my head, and if I don’t work I starve to death sooner rather than later. What a fucking life.

It is almost impossible to ignore the fact that our civil leaders have no regard for human life, that their sole aim is to maximize corporate profits at our expense.
There is no floor. There is nothing they won’t take. We are disposable serfs, can you not see that? The working class is on its own.

We have apparently all accepted a world where ALL systems are probabilistic in their outcomes with no ability to opt out and often no way to even reach a human who can make a judgement call.

Canadians and Americans alike united in being very fucking over moderate liberal politicians who don’t have any principles or integrity.
This is genuinely, the most angry I’ve ever seen progressive Americans get at Dems, across the range of the moderate to radical left.
Their last chance at relevance was several exits back, and now they’ve completely exhausted everyone’s good will.
