Tonight at 11: Is being rich bad for your health? 99% of the population seem to think so, and it's not why you think!

You mean the laundry hole?

Not the dumbest shit I've heard today though. With the way the US is headed right now, you'll be taken in by your new home as a refugee.

The rules are usually really quite simple. Don't be a dick and don't spread hate. If "right wing opinions" can't stay out of those simple rules, they're not right wing opinions, they're bigots and that has never and will never be okay.

Doesn't matter. They even determined that planning to get yourself in an unsafe situation with the purpose of shooting protesters, travelling across states with a gun to again very intentionally get yourself in a situation where you'd need to use it, is still self defense. Even when you shoot someone without actually being in danger, it becomes self defense when other people are trying to stop you. All of this, as long as your victims are protesting against right-wing policies, has been determined in court to be self defense.

What they forget is that other people aren't going to be as comitted to their business as they themselves are. They're not going to care as much for the simple fact, that if the business takes off, they're not going to earn any of the profits. Why would I work 50 hour weeks like the founder, if I don't stand to actually reap the benefits?

Agreed, I mean absolutely no disrespect.

I think the problem with US politics is that liberal is by party design, grouped with the socialists too. Here in northern Europe, the liberal parties are usually considered our right to far-right parties, while conservatives are a bit more centrist and often without any influence.

It's not my fault a lot of like-minded people also thought "Fuck Reddit". If they want more liberal or conservative people on Lemmy they're welcome as long as they follow the rules. Problem is that liberal or conservative people don't really mind the stuff happening on Reddit, so why would they?

He doesn't at all seem to know what the protests are supposedly about. "A lot of them were there because what we witnessed was a terrible thing", what do you think "we" witnessed Trump? I see a few options here.

• He has absolutely no idea about any of this. Either he's being lied to by literally everyone around him, to try to control him like a puppet.
• He is as demented as most sane people think, and has no clue what is happening, despite having been informed
• He simply doesn't give half a shit about any of it, because people who protest are peasnts to him, and don't deserve to be part of his thought process.
• It could be a combination of the above 3, not ruling that out either.

No matter, this piece of shit is destroying the world order, he's destroying the world economy, and he's destroying the lives of the american people.

Don't kink shame me!

"We're sorry we told you to fuck off, we still want you to, but it turned out people like you more than us, so now you made us look like the bad guys."
