Nice psy-op. Now Putin will have to order everyone to be there, and they’ll all be watching the skies instead of his dumb parade.

Start your own business, and get out. It’s hard work, but you’ll never be sorry to not have to suffer supervisory fools and toxic co-workers any longer.

Add him to The List.

American oil companies ALWAYS exploit any situation on which they can rationalize price increases. Even a rumor of a supply problem, even if it doesn’t affect America, will cause a 50 cent spike in prices.

Something like this? Time to cash in! I guarantee that at the end of the year, the oil companies will have record profits, proving that the increases weren’t due to the increased price of supply, but corporate greed-flation caused by profit-gouging.

I once had an argument with a MAGA who told me that NYC has always LOVED Trump, and that he’s the “King of New York.” He actually said that.

I told him that I guessed he isn’t from NYC, because I am a New Yorker-in-law, and can definitively say that New Yorkers despise him, and further they have always despised him, and further, they have always deeply resented that somehow he represents NYC to many in the world. Turns out I was right, he’d never been to NYC. He was just repeating nonsense from the Conservative Propaganda Machine.

Trump is hated more in NYC, than probably anywhere else. His own home town despises him.

Yeah, MAGA likes to scream about all the problems with their health care in Canada or England, but threaten to take it away, and those countries all go nuts.

It’s unrealistic to expect perfection, but even their imperfect systems are miles ahead of the immoral predatory system we have.

How easy or violent it has to be is entirely up to them. If they want violence, we can oblige them, but they’ll still lose their money, and their family may not survive it.

I hear you, that all makes sense, and I’ve been hearing it my entire life. When I was young, Social Security was supposed to end before the 21st Century, and yet, here we are.

I believe they’ve just been softening us up to accept it when they finally figure out some mechanism to kill it, and they can say “Well, we always said it couldn’t last,” and we’ll say, “Yeah, it was good while it lasted.”

Valid.

Dude, I’m sitting next to you at the meeting.

Yeah, heading towards just taking it all, and leaving them destitute, and if they don’t like it, they can think about it in prison, if they’re lucky to survive that long.

They enjoy their wealth at the pleasure of the Citizens, and those who don’t handle their wealth responsibly, will have it removed.

That’s not a good argument, most of them ARE born into it.

Let’s make this Sociopathic Oligarch understand that his…sort…are the only group left for which BULLYING is totally allowed, and strongly encouraged.

Fuck these loser snowflakes, all the money in the world, and they’re whining because we aren’t nice enough to them, poor people get all the breaks, it’s just not fair.

He’s really not going like “Eat The Rich.”

Also valid. When the time comes, we’ll have that discussion in earnest. Sociopathic Oligarchs will not be consulted.

How does shit like that get greenlighted? That nonsense would have sounded just as monstrous back then as it does today.

Valid perspective, the main point being that it is imperative that we reconfigure our country so that neither society, nor the government serve the needs of the wealthy, the wealthy serve the needs of government and society. The wealthy have no needs, they are wealthy.

They need to learn that they keep their money at the pleasure of the Citizens, and if they step out of line, or even hint at trouble, the Board of Directors goes to prison, and their entire net worth is confiscated. Do that to a few wealthy families, make them destitute, and have to send their kids to {gasp!} public school, and they’ll learn real quick who they work for.

I’ve thought of that, but then we miss out on the opportunity to piss them off every time we raise it, and that’s so much fun.

I love when rich people start screaming that they don’t have enough money, and the poor get all the breaks, and it isn’t fair. Hilarious.

The Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski, was an MKUltra subject, and the experience is what touched off his lifelong “mission.”

I would not at all put it past this admin to have some guys that saw that movie, and just said ‘lets do that’.

Some guy? You mean Trump? His entire worldview seems to come from movies and TV. Just the other day he was claiming that 86 is a mob term meaning “Kill him,” then he realized he was saying that he knew mob guys, and he quickly pivoted to “…in the MOVIES, they say that.”

What a fucking putz, this fucking guy.
