Big Bad Politics!

@Zaknel
Year by year, on average, Obama’s CPI increased at a rate of about three every year. In Trump’s first term, CPI increased by five points every year, read the whole graph, not just the percentages.

All of a sudden a two second google search is intense? Don’t worry, here you go.

Also, I find it funny how you’re very busy; and yet you had time to dig up a blog written by a small-time freelancer.

Cracker Barrel didn’t “go woke” and then “go broke”, it just went broke years ago and enshittified because that’s how capitalism works. They’ve been losing money hand over fist since 2020.

And it’s not just me saying that. LOLbertarian super-duper capitalist rag Reason agrees. Cracker Barrel did not “go woke”. There’s nothing “woke” about the new logo and the redesigned millennial grey stores.

And Sydney Sweeney, you know, big tits, no ass, weird eyes that are like 6 inches apart, star of a TV (Internet?) series about teenagers having lots of explicit sex scenes, the based savior of basedness whose tits are so massive that they double-handedly killed woke forever, she’s been in two movies this year that bombed. It’s got tits, it’s got guns, it’s got the Aryan master race, it’s got the tits that killed woke. So why didn’t all the based Miga real men with dicks and balls go to see their goddess in Americana and Eden?

Snoop Dog, real life pimp and drug dealer who made real life hardcore lesbian porn films, has got a stick up his ass over the presence of a lesbian couple in a kids movie.

No, I don’t for one nanosecond believe his grandson calls him “Papa Snoop”.

The same people complaining about G-rated gays existing in a cartoon are the ones making excuses CELEBRATING Lauren Boober giving a man a handjob in a crowded theater full of real life kids because it’s straight.

This is the politics thread. It says so in the name.

Russia to withdraw from European Convention against Torture.

The government has proposed to President Vladimir Putin “to denounce” the European Convention for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment.
original document
The document is dated August 23.

Russia also refused to implement decisions of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) that entered into force after March 15, 2022. In the fall of 2022, Moscow denounced the Convention on Human Rights, and in the winter of 2023, it terminated 21 treaties with the Council of Europe.

In three days it will. Trump has not only removed this exemption for the 29th, he has also seen fit to apply a minimum flat 80$ tariff charge on all foreign goods. Again, that’s on the lower end, the maximum goes well above 100$.
Yeah, it’s me again. This is the part where you swear to yourself for the fifth time this year that you will stop interacting with me.

From now on, I will not be interacting with any anonymous users in this thread.

@Zaknel
See you next month, lmao

Donald Trump is now poised to bring in 600,000 Chinese nationals into the US on student Visas, with his justification being that we need Chinese money to keep our Universities afloat.

So this fat fuck defunded and practically dismantled the Department of Education (which handled University grants and loans for American students), cut University research grants, and held back other kinds of funding for these schools over petty culture war bullshit. And now he’s realized he fucked up but instead of investing more into American students on top of giving them the money he held back, he’s decided to bring in Chinese money instead.

All this on top of his and Elon’s fondness for H-1B visa workers (I haven’t forgotten about that, btw). And it’s starting to become clear that even if these shit manufacturing jobs do come back to America, Trump and his investors are making it very clear that they intend to bring the cheap labor along with it.

American Conservative voters are once again the biggest losers. As they have been, as they are, as they shall continue to be.

It seems like an effective strategy. Cut off the benefits, and people leave on their own.

Are a bunch of red states really getting new seats?

Are blue states losing seats?

I remain skeptical for the time being, but imagine if Republicans start dominating American politics. Imagine what will happen.

Holy shit that guy has a small face.

Here’s Willy, war journalist and combat veteran. Look at his perfectly normal face.

Those pics are from the same angle.

Willy’s face, a normal size face, is like 30% larger than Charlie Kirk’s face. The distance from the ear to the eye, the distance from the brows to the top of the head, the size of the chin, the diameter of the mouth. You can see it. You can’t help but see it. One has a teeny tiny little baby face on an adult size head, the other has a normal adult face on an adult head.

Look at it. It’s like he has that disease where he has a tiny little face and a big huge gigantic light bulb shaped head.

Here’s another one. Tiny little face, big huge head.

@UrbanMysticDee
I feel like this shouldn’t be our priority in politics…

@Zaknel
Let’s agree to disagree

eurofags continue to buy russian gas. and chinese e-cars. pathetic total import dependant scum. Leftist ecofascism has destroyed their own energy and industrial security. Perhaps smoking marijuana and consuming fly agaric tinctures destroyed the neurons in their brains.

The EU is spending more money on Russian fossil fuels than on financial aid to Ukraine Eurofags continue their circus.

I love how X thought Trump was dead because nothing newsworthy happened for 2 days.

Wow. I left for a week and didn’t miss anything important. Don’t know why I even bother coming to this thread at all anymore.

@Twiface
Politics has been much more stable now. The economy is stabilizing, and people’s lives are better. So there isn’t much to talk about right now.

@Zaknel
What Zaknel won’t tell you is that Trump and Elon have issued deep cuts into the Head Start program, and what little money is allocated to the program is being held up, which has led to school closures. Furthermore, the Head Start program doesn’t record citizenship status on those it serves. So there’s no way of knowing who’s an immigrant using the program. Just kidding, these racists found a simple solution, target everyone with a foreign sounding name.

This dude Zaknel is unironically retarded, we’re already seeing what a Republican government is capable of achieving: a devalued dollar, citizens losing their social safety nets as millions are set to lose their medicare coverage in the next few years, crony capitalism, a police state, and now using AI death panels to determine who gets to have access to healthcare.
