Hasan Poker ain’t for everyone but he’s super knowledgeable and provides great context for ongoing issues. I mainly watch on YouTube so the clips are edited down and even more context (charts, sources, etc) are added.

Have you/Has anyone seen the r/worldnews subreddit lately? Shit’s wild! Can’t imagine how hard it would be to join/leave that community and learn the truth

I stopped clicking on android authority links after they faked a drop test to make an iPhone look good

That said, what are people using nowadays or what. I tried skiff earlier this year and then it almost immediately announced they were stopping their email service

I can’t imagine the stress if I’d had anything important I needed to transfer to another email. I mean, besides losing everything of course

Edit: relevant absolutely ridiculous, watching it again. No shame! I wonder if they ever even addressed it

So do most people, at least speaking for Americans. Ignoring all other context, at least this guy gives a miniscule shit about what his people think/want. That’s just like basic politics

I do have to wonder if he thinks he’s in more danger of losing it all than other contemporary government leaders

Interesting. I thought that was just in movies. lol

Ok, yeah I figured the same thing

I just learned that Rockefeller significantly improved his image by giving away the money he stole from his workers.

Maybe Amazon can just to donate half of the money they don’t pay in taxes to win back most people’s support - hell, maybe even less than that!

That seems kinda fucked up. Why would you do something like that?

I mean, I at least get fucking with people for money. Doing it for fun, not so much

Also, anyone know what they meant with this line?

I still loved my life so I didn’t want to use the Google custom search API.

And who are the good guys?

Are you one of the good guys? Oh shit am I?

lol. Bad guys?

I mean, sure but Dems only really have a chance because Republicans continue to run the shuttiest candidates imaginable. That is absolutely true

Like, Obama won partly because McCain chose to run with Palin. It’s not the only reason he won, but it’s silly to think it wasn’t a major factor - especially considering everything we know about white American voters, that’s been made just as clear as it ever could be. I bet it was a tough decision for some/many Americans

I’ve always wished I could feel like the choice in a general election was a hard decision, but alas I’m working class and brown (and believe in science)

Yeah, idk. They’ll show the important scenes. Just not entirely or anything. lol

I was mostly joking but it’s def an option. It works if you just want the jist of the story and don’t really care about the acting or basically anything else

Have you tried watching movie recaps on youtube? It’s the other extreme but i find it good enough for movies I’ll never see. There’s lots of movies I’ve seen there I’m glad I didn’t watch for a full hour. Most movies have tons of similar tropes you can easily understand in like a 15 min sentence

So now the best time to take that Euro trip?

Seriously though, just went to Italy, France and Netherlands and it was incredibly how cheap and easy it was to fly between different countries. Definitely want to go back for Germany

Does it matter?

Keep up the pressure, y’all! Shit’s working

Sure but prepare to fight any fascists that see you do it. They won’t be that dumb

You’re definitely not wrong that hurting profits is good leverage. It might actually be the best tool we have

I don’t remember where I heard it recently, but we really need to bring back the slogan “no taxation without representation”

Millennials barely have representation and gen z has maybe one representative. The US was legit founded by mostly young people. It’s nuts to see the contrast to today. It’s not even exaggerating to say this nation hates it’s younger citizens

Edit: grammars

Would that work for literally anything we/nations use government for though?

“The government won’t prevent companies polluting the environment, so just assume it’s every individual citizen’s responsibility” “the gov won’t ensure food is safe to eat, so just follow these tiktok channels because it’s ultimately your responsibility to know what companies are putting in the food you eat” or “the gov won’t protect consumers from unfair business practices so just don’t support companies that are have a monopoly in your area” (this last one clearly ain’t working and consumers clearly can’t do anything; thinking of Comcast or Ticketmaster here). Personally, I think the EPA, FDA and antitrust laws are as necessary as any other basic laws (along with people to enforce those laws).

People making the claim that we don’t need government intervention, or saying private citizens should be held responsible, for government-sanctioned practices are either delusional/willfully ignorant or fake actors trying to shift responsibility from the government which literally has the power to enact legislation.

Imo, the biggest responsibility citizens have is to hold their government accountable. Most Americans legit think all politicians are evil and stupid which really just goes to show that they can’t tell the difference between someone trying to fight for companies to pay fair overtime/holiday pay and someone fighting for us to invest in another war err I mean defense

🏅 You’ve won the best attitude award!

Bad bot

Ok, that’s totally fair. I would absolutely hate to get a work call from an unknown number. Tha didn’t even cross my mind!

I was interpreting it as simply hearing your phone ring and thinking it could be a spam caller (I really need to set up custom ringtones at some point)
