@shyguys_vault@ShitpostRock2 It’s quite clearly a window in a specialised care home for those with mental illness. Not sure Americans know what mental illness is since they all suffer from it 👍🏼
@Zephyrgold58@ShitpostRock2 I see the replies all saying "erm it isn't actually required that you keep them on" but I do not understand what is the purpose of them at all.
Do you guys hate air? Or do you think you will accidentally fall out?
What is going on in that continent?
@NathanAlgren12@brykshn@Harukufufu@Grummz 6 months to a year in jail coupled with massive fines would sit well with me especially if mommy and daddy have to come bail him out. Maybe they'll demand he return home and stay in Turkey.
Hasan starts naming names.
He’s going to completely roll over because he was never a real socialist. He’s a very rich capitalist that will throw his commie friends under the bus without hesitation.
I love it, let his fans see what he is.
@Glyrion@Grummz Biggest problem is his parents birth tourism so Hasan would be a US citizen. Best case scenario is he gets the book thrown at him over his CACR violations.
@Grummz The US has been very disappointing in terms of justice. The guy literally had an Hamas terrorist in his stream and they were hyping each other up. Bros gotta go at that point. It’s been a long time coming.
@dzdork2@mo_oakville@Playteaux1 That sucks. Again, most of the “failure” of the ACA has been because the GOP, state and fed kneecapped it from the beginning. Small insurance providers like Assurant lost money because they couldn’t deny coverage for pre-existing conditions (a good thing that helps us all.)
Years ago when Obama was running for his first term, my neighbors kept talking about how great Obama was. I never said a word to them about being conservative because back then I was more centrist.
At the time I was a 1099 consultant so I paid for my own health insurance. It was about $650 for a family of three and we had a fairly low deductible.
After Obama won and the ACA passed, I lost my health insurance and was told by BCBS that I had to go through the government website to apply.
My insurance went from an affordable $650 a month to $2400 a month with a $10k deductible per family member.
When I said this to my neighbor, they called me a liar. I asked them where they got their news and they said they watched Jon Stewart. I laughed so hard and they never spoke to me again. I’m glad they finally moved.
I just wanted to say this: these are the people we are arguing with online. Completely uninformed buffoons. If you get your information from a late night comedian talk show host, we are not on the same level. Good riddance, Colbert.
@originalmarkz@mo_oakville@Playteaux1 We shouldn't forget the Dems lies that the ACA marketplaces would lower premiums through competition. Where I lived their marketplace only had 1 company to choose...so much for competition.
@mo_oakville@Playteaux1 It was the free market that did it. You legally required us to buy from a for profit third party. Insurance companies probably send Obama a Christmas card each year for the extra billions he gave them. S-Corp owner here, mine went from 1200 bucks to over 5k for my family a month.
@brykshn@Harukufufu@NathanAlgren12@Grummz Any money he spent in Cuba at the hotel or approved stores went to the government and every transaction is a violation of CACR. I honestly hope that Hasan names names and still gets hit with charges.
@Harukufufu@NathanAlgren12@Grummz I get this is entertaining for you guys but Hasan (hate him or not) did nothing wrong. Him getting subpoenaed by the government is just the admin paying dirty games
On our way to Bangor, Maine for a rally with @grahamformaine.
The crises facing our country are too serious for establishment politics and tinkering around the edges.
We need candidates like Graham who will take on the greed of the oligarchs and deliver for working families.
@NoContextBrits Every freaking year this conversation takes place. I wish Americans would research why 79 degrees Fahrenheit is horrible weather in certain parts of the world.
The New York Giants reportedly view Jaxson Dart's introduction of President Donald Trump as a "misstep" that has been addressed by John Harbaugh.

Man, you could practically hear the collective groan in every newsroom across America.
For about 12 glorious hours, the San Diego mosque shooting was absolute catnip for cable news. Two teenage white boys attack a mosque, three innocent people dead ... the “right-wing domestic terrorism” script wrote itself. Chyrons blazing, panels booked, every anti-MAGA hack already sharpening their knives.
Then the manifesto dropped.
And everything went dead quiet.
Turns out Cain Clark and Caleb Vazquez weren’t exactly card-carrying conservatives. These two pathetic Jew-obsessed incel weirdos titled their murder diary “Sons of Tarrant” and filled it with deranged pages of “IT’S THE JEWS” on endless repeat. They weren’t right-wing, weren’t MAGA, weren’t Trump fans ... nah, they proudly called themselves Third Positionists who worshipped Nationalist Socialism and Eco Fascism.
One was autistic and marinating in online poison. The other got force-fed mandatory “ethnic studies” classes that spent the first two weeks hammering “whiteness” and “white privilege” until he started hating himself and his own mixed-race family.
Oh, and the system had been warned for over a year: FBI knew about Vazquez, 5150 psych hold, gun seizure attempt, the works. Mom was blowing up police phones for two straight hours while short-staffed cops treated it like a runaway kid case.
But once the full, messy, politically inconvenient picture hit the internet?
The 24/7 coverage didn’t just slow down. It died.
Nothing kills a beautiful partisan morality play faster than facts that refuse to cooperate. The media isn’t in the truth business ... they’re in the narrative enforcement business. And this one didn’t confirm shit.

@indri_4biking@YMckickass@FloppingAces They did. Any business that displeased the party had their access to raw materials cut off and if they pissed it off enough they had their assets seized and turned over to a state puppet.
