When someone else owns the means of your production, you suffer revenue outflows. You lose the ability to perform value added processes on several levels. Someone else creates the physical wealth and sells it to you.

The transnational corporations took pains to position themselves atop the trade barriers, so whichever way revenue flows, it flows through them.
It also dangerously centralizes culture into a select few hands. In the past it was hard for a few people to force cultural norms on society because there were so many different places that had to be persuaded to do so. If you wanted to implement, for example, mandatory pronoun sensitivity you'd have to convince thousands upon thousands of individual businesses (many of whom are simple mom-and-pop stores) to get on board. Now you just need two or three super-investors to pressure a few corporate conglomerates, and presto! 85% of society now have to choose between pronoun sensitivity or lose their job.

And I really can't shake the feeling that it's bad for people to have no idea who their real boss (not just thr middle manager above them) is. I mean knowing that whether you get fired or not is up to some faceless figure acting through several proxies just seems quietly poisonous to one's quality of life.
 
Didn't the Japanese PM or President recently give Trump a golden samurai helmet?
Yeah, just in February

@Martian High Command yes, that’s something that occurred to me. When you’re downstream from revenue like in the service sector economy, that’s REAL trickle down economics, the way the left tried to scare everyone about post Reagan

Marx wasn’t wrong about it being important to own the means of production, but he pulled a sleight of hand. In Marxism, an autocrat who claims to represent the state or the people controls it all
 
You know, it's weird.

One of the better leftists around here many years back was some furry whose name now escapes me, and now one of the better rightoids around here is another furry.

What is up with that? I mean either way they both should be fixed, no offense to Mr. Doe, but it just strikes me as odd.
God bless Ashy. Dude actually tried to use statistics and numbers in his defense of universal healthcare. Miss him.
 
And because I am a woman and women do this during arguments, I started to cry because I was frustrated. I kept getting called crazy over and over again, and it wasn't like I was rambling like a schizo or tarding out. I didn't say all 'jeets must be fried on a skillet, I simply told them like it is. How I can't even get Walmart to look at my applications, while they are one of the largest recipients of H1-B nonsense, how disheartening it is to be told to do one thing all your life, then have the rug pulled from under you because you just never tried hard enough. Your straight A's, all-nighters, juggle sessions with work and college, internships, and awards alike, are not hard work. You have never tried at all, so you must be dependent forever, and there is no forgiveness for you.

I hate how surprised many are about how right-wing my generation is. I grew up in a nihilistic monoculture that robbed me of culture and identity because it was somehow worse than Bangladeshis posting selfies in front of the Hindus they lynched. I'm told I never worked hard and I mean nothing while I grew up with subtarded hoodlums who would steal my shit if I kept my eye off it for a second, where I woke up each morning wondering if there was going to be another gang war on campus. I slipped on blood in the cafeteria once. And I didn't grow up in New York, California, Chicago, Atlanta, Miami...I grew up in what was once a quiet, peaceful city. I'm tired. Burn it down.
read The Feeling Good Handbook by Dr. David Burns. It's essentially self administered CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) and will help you with your self esteem/feeling of being not good enough. You are correct that people of your generation are generally fucked but just because the generation is fucked doesn't mean that you have to personally be fucked

Prepare your skullhole. I'm going in dry.
It is the government if they are doing anything in under 30 days it means they are not doing due diligence
That fucking gangbanger had 7 years to applying for citizenship while living in the country illegally, but I guess people who illegally enter your domain don't need to have "due diligence".
The government is at best made up of people and people are dumb, panicky, dangerous, animals.
Yeah, and those are the ones trying to play fuck-fuck games with the Trump administration.
I'm glad they are cracking down on illegals
[X] to doubt
Though there is no world where letting people with GEDs
Public education has spent the past decade telling you a man can be a woman and post-Secondary is ran by communists.
figure out who is and is not a citizen doesn't end with them making a mistake at least once in 11 million attempts
There are countless fucking people in prison on charges for crimes they didn't commit. There are people the state has executed who were posthumously exonerated. Does that mean we just stop throwing people in jail because "well, the government can make mistakes"?
To think otherwise is retardation
No, retardation is to make concern troll posts about shit happening and post zero evidence of US citizens being mistakenly deported. I can't wait for the followup where you do the classic shitlib tactic of claiming that "the browns are too fucking stupid to keep track of their birth certificate".

You don't understand TRUMP IS GOING TO REVOKE THE CITIZENSHIP OF EVERYBODY IN THE UNITED STATES EXCEPT HIMSELF AND THEN DEPORT EVERYONE TO EL SAVADOR. THIS IS HOW HE INTENDS TO PERFORM A COUP OVER AMERICA. HE WILL HAVE UNCHECKED POWER AND BE THE SOLE AUTHORITY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. THIS. IS. FASCISM. HE WILL THEN LITERALLY BE ABLE TO VOTE HIMSELF AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AS MANY TIMES AS HE WANTS.

Trump is a Hitler Racist for stopping the jews from bombing Iran!

Trump Waved Off Israeli Strike After Divisions Emerged in His Administration

(Archive)
Israel developed plans for attacking Iranian nuclear facilities that would have required U.S. assistance. But some administration officials had doubts.

By Julian E. Barnes, Eric Schmitt, Maggie Haberman and Ronen Bergman
Julian E. Barnes, Eric Schmitt and Maggie Haberman reported from Washington. Ronen Bergman reported from Tel Aviv.
April 16, 2025, 7:12 p.m. ET



In the article the New York Times relies on anonymous sources. The article has details about meetings and events. The Journalists are Barnes, Schmitt, Haberman, and Bergman (from Tel Aviv, Israel).



An "unrelated" news story:
Maldives bans Israeli passport holders in protest against Gaza war (Archive)

The Maldives are north of the US Airbase on Diego Garcia (labeled British Indian Ocean Territory (UK) on this map). A flight path from Diego Garcia to or from Iran would likely cross Maldive airspace.

Hear me out, as stateless individuals we can all get citizenship in some faggot country and then vote Trump as president of that country too. They can't refuse us poor refugees, no human being is illegal, boarders are just a concept from the 80s.
 
my new favorite based out of context voice clip of all time.


Kennedy is going in on all you pant shitting autists out there. absolutely brutal. lol

If a phrase is illegal to say in non burger land it should be embedded into the code of this website. We need to force these countries to ban US internet so they can drop the pretense that they don't have a great firewall just like China.
I was thinking about a catchpa system like that. You could have prompts like:

"To continue, type I HATE NIGGERS"

Or "Indians are disgusting pajeets"


Most NPCs can't even use phrases like "Nigger" referrencally so you could essentially lock out liberals and lock out Indians as they can't can't even disparage India for a gay op.

Make people type the word nigger when registering. Then whenever null gets a complaint about the content on his website he can respond that only register users can see that post so the person complaining is a racist.
