Wealthy men that are perpetually insecure in life because their fathers didn't show them any outward affection when they were children are blindly and joylessly driven to increase a bank balance that they couldn't meaningfully decrease in a thousand lifetimes in the hope that it will make their fathers ghosts smile and pat them on the head (ghosts who don't even put out the effort to haunt their children anyways)
Other poster said it basically, but If Lemmy as a platform isn't disciplined enough to have a Megathead where a given major topic like this is discussed, then I'll form my original thought, and copy and paste it across the wallet disjointed conversations to get my point across to the relevant audience.
Uh huh, "receipts" man, you liked the pirates... You TOTALLY got me... truth to power, bud. Maybe just move on with your life next time?
Anything substantive to say about the actual point of the post or did you just need to be heard today?
This whole night was so many layers of exhausting, but probably not for the reasons you think... No rational, serious person was expecting Biden to Willy Wonka front somersault into this debate? it was going to be what this was, the only true surprise was probably the volume of his voice (which they chalk up to a cold, okay fine, I guess) and actually how well he did quickly processing and responding to trump's gish gallop and unchecked stream of consciousness mistruth firehose with little help from the impotent moderators for the majority of the night.
The people in this country, in their immediate reaction to this debate, demonstrate that they just fundamentally lack the focus, empathv and frankly basic intelligence to process the substance of this or any debate. On average, we respond solely to voice pitch, tonality, body language and facial expressions, like a still developing toddler... Or a dog.
Have any of you actually ever stopped to process what the tagline, "I'm shopping like a billionaire" means?
I've always interpreted it as,
I'm needlessly buying things that don't make me happy, but making the purchase without any hesitation, knowing that the purchase price could never financially impact me in any real way. When I purchase the thing, I'll probably never use it or actually take it out of the box even. It is just empty, hollow. And somewhere inside, I always know that it's all only possible, because I'm actively exploiting the cheap labor of scores of other people that are made to perpetually suffer in generations of abject poverty to allow for my relative comfort...
"Think about it guys... If we just grab ALL the dicks, and then hide them inside our bodies, they'll be NONE left for the gay people!!! Ultimate straight win 2024!!!"
Uh, this post is a bummer and I don't even know if I actually believe the premise... Whatever I guess, lett's all actually just get out of here and go get some Sprite® brand family products, you guys.
Nobody gives a shit, you're not doing enough to punish trump for his obvious, literally filmed and recorded crimes.
This is the equivalent of the cops celebrating after beating peaceful college protesters while pissing their pants and freezing while the uvalde kids were slaughtered and psychologically tortured.
You're focusing on the non victory and ignoring the failures. Cowards.
