I was going to say the same. This is not new news. This was revealed decades ago as a way to predict big moves in the Pentagon. Hell, I would be surprised if there wasnt already a tracker website that email blasts upticks in pizza orders. And if there isn’t, someone get on it.
I own a dairy. We pay a fare wage. I’ve never had a white guy last longer than a week. Jobs for immigrants, legal or not, are important to my community, my local economy, and our nation as a whole. Historically, this sort of thing is old hat.
I’m constantly torn listening to the comments and replies on Lemmy that are spot on, but also have no context to how anything actually works.
My " no kings" truck window paint today drew some ire from the locals, but I’ll stand by my employees and friends. It maybe helps that I’ve also been driving around for years with a “Ted Cruz ate my son” and a local NPR sticker as well. They know not to talk politics at the bar with me anymore. But damn it if I’m not trying in my own way.
All in all, we may be staring to make some headway on this immigration/ice thing. But it’s not happening fast enough. It never should have gotten this bad to begin with.
This brings me joy.
Nothing is better than getting under his skin.
Oh the story of Israel’s nonsense over the past 60 plus years is so messed up. I made the comparison in jest, but it’s crazy.
They really are the worst ride or die ally of all time. And the geopolitical math hasn’t made any sense since the cold war ended. Unless you have a secret religious need for the end of days.
Ever heard the saying, “spare the rod, spoil the child”?
This is what happens. Your kid turns into a fuckin bully that punches above his weight because his dad is a cop and no one wants to stand up to him.
And now he’s brought a Glock to school.
Yeah I’m the idiot for not believing I can outlast a United States government spending spree.
Have you seen all the wars we’ve been in the last 25 years? Have you seen our defence budget? Our janitorial budget? Our paper clip budget? Fucking hell. For all the financial suffering you are willing to “suffer through”, most goes to corporations. Not the government.
You aren’t even a rounding error in the feds books. To do that would make you a multimillionaire.
And the people around you? Yeah good luck. Just a fraction of a percent under fifty percent, believe it or not, they voted for this shit. They have been playing the ‘financial suffering for the greater good’ card since the tariffs started. And they are better organized and propogandized. Trust me, I’ve heard it a lot. And they even have hats!
Let’s try to come up with some better reasoning before you think your personal morals and convictions can outlast the united states ability to throw money at literally everything…
Clearly you don’t understand how taxation works. Or what a Deficit is. This is literally the same logic the right is using to justify tariffs and mass deportations.
“We will just make the government waste our money until they can’t handle it anymore!” As if we haven’t been doing that for decades already.
What a silly take on all this. Zero thought.
I mean… Mars is cool in principal. its still easier to fix our world than to ever terraform another. It’s a very silly idea. But kinda like the moon. Little steps.
Still. I want Mars to happen. just not this way. So I guess I’m ok with it?
Hawkeye: War isn’t Hell. War is war, and Hell is Hell. And of the two, war is a lot worse.
Father Mulcahy: How do you figure, Hawkeye?
Hawkeye: Easy, Father. Tell me, who goes to Hell?
Father Mulcahy: Sinners, I believe.
Hawkeye: Exactly. There are no innocent bystanders in Hell. War is chock full of them - little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for some of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander.
The black eye was signal enough to short that only a moron couldn’t see this as the start of the breakdown. We’ve been waiting for this to come to a head since the campaign trail. No one is supposed it is happening. Most are surprised it took this long.
The funny thing about Elon going to war, is that Elon will lose. Fantastically so. The ketamine must still be flowing hard. 5 years ago Trump’s base hated his cars. It’s only when Elon hitched his cart to maga that they started to like him. An unsold cyber trucks are in mall parking lots and his stocks globally are tanking.
So, now Tesla’s stock is in the shitter. Liberals hate him and don’t want his cars. And now the GOP will flip on him and also not buy his cars. He’s also now going to wreck his government contracts with SpaceX. Mars will never happen for him. And now Twitter will take an even bigger hit. Those ai protections can be drafted to exclude him and his companies too.
He will absolutely damage trump and split a few people off, but he was in a losing position to begin with. Even with damning evidence and the persuasive media skills and charisma of a much more talented individual, he is so fucking cooked. Without that… Well, now there is only one psychopathic narcissist in the leadership role. So that’s nice.
Me here just waiting to also not play the next one.
It’s just another flavor of starfield but somehow so much more shittier. Make me a game that doesn’t release looking like it’s a beta release. Then I may be interested.
Done, and link forwarded to my non Lemmy using selfhosting mentor. Maybe can get at least one more respondant. Maybe more. Good luck!
Literally the reason we established social security in the first place …
I grew up on well water. I still have well water as an adult. Finally swapping to a prescription grade flouride toothpaste is the only thing that has gotten my cavities in check. It’s been a struggle my entire life.
Brushing twice a day did not matter. No sweets did not matter. I have basically no candy or sweet drink habits at all.
I can directly attribute my lifetime of cavity problems to non flourinated water. My dentist agrees.
This is going to wreck America’s health.
All things considered, color me impressed if in 60 days the number is half that.
That actually surprises me as well. I’m impressed.
However what you presented are statistics for American citizens.
If you were to include the roughly 3 percent of people living in the USA that are undocumented, that pushes it below the 51 percent “most people” number. those 12 million people may or may not have a valid passport.
As a side point, the actual number of undocumented residents is hard to pin down. 3 percent is an estimate, but still a significant number.
I live in Texas. I know what they want to do. And they cant. The answer to all this is that they are powerless. Continue on as normal and shit post to your heart’s content.
That’s the fun thing about the Internet. Volume beats quality. Amazon and tiktok are corporate proof of this fact. It takes a good damn army to make wikipedia barely functional, and since 4chan crashed, there is an actual apocalyptic army of degens with nothing but free time and bandwidth.
as a patron and contributor to the mind sink that is the Internet, they can never beat the valueless shit show of volume that our degenerate minds can contribute.
Carry on you worthless shitlords. Magnificent bastards every one. Do your worst.
