I think Bill says a lot of arrogant things and doesn't listen so well, but he certainly does a better job than most to unmask the Scooby monsters on the other side, the country heals when the right wakes up. Colbert, Kimmel, Fallon, none can get an audience over there, Bill's work is necessary.

I have Hüsker Dü stuck in my head for five days straight this week. "I said I am sorry..."

How about one step further, we would all have a better life if people just stopped lying... For any reason... just stop, it brings nobody anything. Believing women would be automatic.

That plate print makes it look like you have a couple of grilled up smash-rodents with the feet still attached. Noses too.

Just let them know people over here are $hit talking their style and they will come back.

He's getting excited to assume the throne.

So long as they aren't Africanized bees, those are all criminals.

The desire to provide for your family or even feeling a failure to not be able to do so has nothing to do with machismo and everything to do with love of family. Many mothers feel the exact same pang of guilt and failure when they also cant provide. Let's please not cancel this human evolution yet.

Maybe instead of dehumanizing immigrants we use proactive methods to transfer their credentials from where they studied into the US workforce in their focus and skillset and then they wouldn't have to take the only pay they can get by doing the job of dehumanizing immigrants.

Chief of staff to an AOC president would be a phenomenal role for him.

Send refugees to small and medium towns. Bringing their culture to where it has a much lower chance of interaction enlightens the receiving nation's collective understanding and it also forces the newcomers to integrate as the pool is too small for them to insulate within their own kind. Win/win/win

Give these guys enough rope and they will spin it into another Maga hat (where they can hide the tinfoil)

I have been getting blocked very consistently for months now and all I do is comment and repost and once in a while put up my own posts that are all middle of the road. I have no idea how to address it... There is definitely a "trust the accuser" algorithm going on here.

A bit more constructive dialogue could be nice. Sometimes it just feels like everyone raging against a machine but the machine isn't here to know it's getting raged at.

Nailed it, you actually have leverage, don't waste it. Try and make a profit in the US without them taking their pound of sand, forget it. Fight the hypocrisy.

0% federal loans to small businesses for CNC laser and plasma then if you actually give a $hit about Canadian value added steel products. Helping CN and Bombardier isn't enough. Covid killed the Canadian entrepreneurs that sponsor local kids sports and community service clubs, we all use steel, help

True. The reality is most dudes also reject guys like that too. They blame women because they are morons, they are lonely because nobody taught them how to be loving and civil regardless of whether or not they find the other person attractive or vice versa.

You are right, the laws were put in place in the 30s and 40s, but the work completed through the 70s-90s. There is without a doubt the biggest greed demographic in history currently within the boomers, but it is not generational universal. There is way more generosity amongst them than in my peers.
