Keep hiding then. I’m sure that will work out great

You’re not wrong but everyone seems to think that’s someone else’s job. We’re not going to see actual change until people like you and I start fixing pipes ourselves.

The logic is “I hate my job so you have to hate whatever you spend most of your time doing too”. It makes sense if you think life is supposed to be hard but it seems like the obvious solution is to make life easier for everyone rather than harder for those who have trouble participating in our dumb economic system.

I think I agree with her concept, just not the food group. I wish it weren’t so but I’m starting to think that only death will separate the MAGA crowd from their collective insanity. If it only impacted them that would be one thing but it’s impacting the whole world.

How is a school going to regulate what kids do outside of school property? They could ban cell phones on campus but that’s not going to change what happens after hours.

Don’t hide from this. That’s only going to help them. If they’re coming for you then give them a middle finger, not a whimper.

That’s the same kinds of things they said about Obama. All you’re basing this on is your feelings. Call me when AOC or another progressive woman loses a general election.

He acted like one once he got elected but that’s not what got him elected. His campaign was very different from his Presidency.

Clinton / Harris did not lose because they were women. They lost because they either were a neoliberal shitbag (Clinton) or could not convince people that they were not a neoliberal shitbag (Harris).

We elected a black man after years of people saying America was too racist to ever do that. There are a lot more women in America than there are black people, and it turns out that running as a progressive is pretty popular.

We don’t need to play this stupid guessing game about what genitals or skin colors will win elections. We already know the policy positions that win elections we just categorically refuse to run on them.

I mean, after the 360 they had XXXbox sitting right there and they acted like they were too good for it. Prudes.

Tbf, market indicators don’t mean shit to people with stagnant wages who have seen 20% inflation over 5 years. Of course, that doesn’t mean that Trump is going to fix anything but it’s hard to blame stupid people for not noticing those indicators when they are specifically designed to exclude the average person’s financial situation.

Musk also said he loves Trump as much as a straight man can love another man so he seems willing to say whatever bullshit he feels like he needs to say to accomplish his goal in any given moment.

I have come to understand that this is the explanation but it still doesn’t make sense in a way that I can internalize. I don’t get the mechanics of stupidity because having what I would have called average intelligence seems like such an easy bar to clear. A+B=C comes so naturally to me that I literally can’t force my brain to do anything different and yet I know people personally who obviously don’t do that at all on their own and it amazes me. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to figure out what they’re actually doing with their thoughts. All I know for sure is that logic doesn’t exist until someone else starts the process and that is baffling.

The way a stupid persons brain works is a mystery. Understanding that is my struggle even though I know that it is the answer to the original question.

I am convinced I will go to my grave with this being the most frustrating piece of knowledge missing from my life. It defies logic to the point that I’ve had to adjust my perspective on humanity to account for it.

If a deity exists, he probably says the same thing about humans. Both are annoying to a more advanced being for similar reasons.

The heat could dry out your skin, which, if I’m not mistaken, is essentially what a burn is. However, as the other person noted, a sunburn is damage from radiation, not heat. So I think you could stretch the common definition of a burn to call heat induced dry skin a burn but calling it a sunburn would not be accurate.

I understand that things are happening. I’ve been to some of those protests and seen the people making a stand firsthand. It’s certainly not nothing. I’m just saying that the response we’ve seen so far is what I would have predicted for his first term. We should be making a bunch of fascists a foot shorter by now.

I’ll join you happily. I’m just pretty confident that we will be easy to arrest since it will probably be us and a handful of other people.
