It could very well be that if MAGA does not fully understand the moment and take action before the window closes, it will be hunted down and persecuted in 2028, and not just MAGA but everyone who supported MAGA, the tech bros from Elon on down, everyone. Itโs time to get serious.

@Sam98103202 @bumbadum14 Love how the goalposts keep moving btw. First you talk about Roman Empire, then proven wrong so switch to โEuropeโ. Lol. Typical.
English
@ASevenAngels @bumbadum14 You are historically illiterate. Children stayed with dad unless the dad decided to hand them over to wife. If split was acrimonious, that was unlikely. In Europe, girls didn't marry at 12 on average. Was pretty rare.
English
Women had lifelong maternal leave for all of human history and then unions gaslit you people into thinking itโsโempoweringโ to go work while pregnant and immediately after having a baby

At 4 weeks postpartum I was: sleeping 3 *nonconsecutive* hours a night; breastfeeding every 2 hours for at least 30 min a session, so about 6 hours a day; and bleeding through everything I wore. If men did this, the whole fucking world would be structured around parental leave.
English
@Sam98103202 @bumbadum14 Legally, maybe but not in practice. Sons would iccasionally go with the father if he was wealthy but daughters nearly always stayed with the wives. And girls were married off by 12 anyway, and the dad was responsible for dowry. Youre totally misrepresenting.
English
@ASevenAngels @bumbadum14 Are you joking? It happened in Ancient Rome, and it happened, until the mid-19th century, in much of Europe. Default custody was the dad. This changed when Caroline Norton put forward The Tender Years Doctrine, opening up custody for separated mothers.
English
@Sam98103202 @bumbadum14 Men divorced their wife and took the child with him in exactly no country, ever. And no man would want to live w/a woman who doesn't clearly want to be there. These same churches also railed against the alcoholism and abuse you are claiming was so prevalent.
English
@ASevenAngels @bumbadum14 No, he controlled her earnings and had full custody rights of the children, so it was very hard for her to leave. The courts turned a blind eye to domestic violence and the church/society preached family unity at all costs. In some cases the man could force her back.
English
@Sam98103202 @bumbadum14 Poor men worked in those places also, so what? That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard, women were always welcome to leave at any time, but it usually worked for her (and everyone's) benefit. If there was an abusive relationship, well that still happens today.
English
@ASevenAngels @bumbadum14 ..but even then poor women worked in factories, as domestic servants, in markets etc.
Men controlled the wife's earnings to tether her to him so that she couldn't leave, even if he was spending it on gambling, drink, other women etc.
English
@Sam98103202 @bumbadum14 LOL I'm quite informed of history. Women were 'closed off' from certain jobs b/c 99% stayed home with the kids. They didnt have daycare. Women gave their earnings to men b/c men handled the finances. Men supported women after divorce (did women steal that?) Get a grip.
English
@ASevenAngels @bumbadum14 It's not a take. It's how things were. Please read history.
English
@bumbadum14 Most women worked throughout history. Very silly to claim otherwise.
They were just closed off from certain jobs, paid less for the same work and their husbands grabbed their earnings (coverture), making them financially dependent and trapped.
You know this.

@eugyppius1 I think the average American does not hate the average European, and vice versa. But its sometimes difficult to separate the hatred that each does have for the political class of the other, when said political class was voted in by said average people.
English
inb4 โbut you Euros hated us firstโ: This is not true and most of you have no idea what Euros think about much of anything, youโre engaged with a cartoon fantasy of the continent. The European political class and the American political class share a general contempt for the rabble (ie, us) on both sides of the Atlantic, and there is a classic โsmall country effectโ whereby European nations try to out-moral (i.e., out-shitlib) the Americans, which the American prog left uses to push their agenda in turn. I obviously hate these dynamics and find them retarded but Euros arenโt remotely your enemies.

Met a boomer school board member last night
Me: My kids go to private school
Them: Oh wow thatโs so expensiveโฆ
Me: we get the EFA so that helps
Them: those take away money from public schools!
Me: I donโt believe thatโs trueโฆ
Them: well they raise our taxes!
Me: whatโs the cost per student in your district?
Them: $24,000, why?

The amount of woman in NYC is becoming overbearing and its hitting a point where its a negative.
Women outnumber men 65-35 in NYC, I cant go to the grocery store without being stared at, they come up and touch me without permission. Its violating, i dont consent to any of this.
Bars are even worse, I just want to chill and drink with my boys, but its impossible, theres just not enough guys to go around. Girls will constantly try to butt into our conversations, offer to buy us drinks, get sexual right away. None of this is wanted. Go away.
Just leave us alone you heathens.

@timberwind @Nexuist @Duderichy Fair enough. Though some models in some areas you can still get decent value even on 150k cars. Definitely less of a gamble to get less mileage thi.
English
@ASevenAngels @Nexuist @Duderichy right, you buy at 90k so you can drive it through 180k. you don't want to start with something at 180k unless you know what you're doing, it's a good way to immediately end up with a repair bill well in excess of what you paid for the car
English
$5k car is the โyou canโt pay rent but you have an iPhone?โ of the post Covid generation
They donโt exist and if they do they have 3 accidents, 140k miles and 7 owners on their carfax

Be the person with $100k in the bank and a $5k car. Not $5k in the bank and a $100k car.
English
@timberwind @Nexuist @Duderichy I own a vehicle with 150K miles, and don't do much myself, so I'm perfectly familiar with mechanic prices. If it's not a total lemon, maintenance is still cheaper than buying new.
English
@ASevenAngels @Nexuist @Duderichy you also have not been keeping up with inflation on mechanic labor. look, if you aren't set up to be an amateur mechanic you want to look for something with less than 100k miles on the clock, preferably from Honda or Toyota, and you're gonna be spending more money
English
@Nexuist @timberwind @Duderichy The price of repair may be high, but even 5k repairs every year will still be far less than $40,000 for a new car, which by the way will also need repairs after a few years.
English
I think I probably worded my original point too strongly but broadly what I was trying to get at was, sure it might be possible to have someone hand you a functional car for $5k, but the odds of that car not breaking down within the next few months/years are low, and the price of repair will likely overcome what you paid in the first place

@karbonbased @vers_laLune Not sure anyone reminisced about how awesome life was before those darned light bulbs tho.
English
@vers_laLune People born with electricity think they existed before technology.
The hallucinations run deep.
English
There's a decent chance every generation from here on out will hallucinate that they were the last generation to grow up without technology encroaching the human experience
เผเผ@Shirinsmit
Those born in 1999-2004 got the perfect mix of old-school and modern. It's the greatest generation of all time.
English
@luinalaska I mean those times, several generations would still be living in the house with grandpa when he diedโฆ..
English
Youโre totally right. No one can or should force a boomer out of their 4 bedroom house to make space financially and quite literally for the next generation. True. Most generations understood wealth in more linear terms. Grandpa to son to grandson. The hope and expectation was that the children had the benefit of their lineage. No one can make the boomers less selfish. History will be unkind. So will statistics. But you are technically correct. No one can force them nor should we try. The legacy is earned and it will be lasting.

@luinalaska People usually remain in their home because they can't afford to move, or because they like their home, neighbors and community. No one has a right to tell them they must move anymore than anyone has a right top their money.
