  • What I really want conservatives to contend with is the fact that cutting the size of the federal workforce this way has done LITERALLY NONE of the things they always insist shrinking the government will accomplish.

    • It has not reduced prices. In fact, those are way up.
    • It has not reduced taxes on the middle and lower classes. In fact, those are up too (while taxes on the ultra-wealthy continue to drop).
    • It has not made government services more efficient. In fact, those are now substantially shittier.
    • It has not made health care less expensive.
    • It has not made unemployment go down (obviously).
    • It has not made the private sector step in where government services falter.

    Everything is more expensive and less efficient now. Small government does not equal good government.

    Conservatives, this is what happens when you elect people who will actually follow through on the batshit insane garbage you’ve always wanted. You own this mess.








  • You misread what I wrote. I didn’t say it couldn’t fool me, I said I’ll never pay for it. I’m not interested in fabricated emotional connections to fake art, even if it’s faked well enough to trick me. All this means is that I’m going to be researching the bands and artists I listen to, which I already do anyways.

    There really isn’t anything unique anyway in human made content

    100% pure, unadulterated bullshit.










  • Have some sympathy for them. After all, what other choice do they have? They spent the entire campaign and all of the Biden administration lying continuously about how many undocumented immigrants there are in the country, how frequently they cross the border, how many are dangerous… basically, their entire campaign was built on obvious, blatant lies for stupid people.

    So now they don’t have any other option but to layer on additional lies about how effective ICE is and to “deport” people here legally - sometimes to countries they’ve never been in.

    Have some sympathy. Being this psychotically evil is hard work!
