@WcoastO @SantaCawws @FoxNews That's just your opinion.

@SantaCawws @FoxNews RFK is an idiot. Catching a snake without being bitten is easy. Holding them up like he did is stupid, but he's seriously off mentally. Carelessly being bitten by a snake is not a sign of "manhood". Again, RFK is an idiot.

“Those are dangerous!” HHS Secretary RFK Jr. sharing a wild video of himself grabbing two black racer snakes off Dr. Mehmet Oz’s patio while his wife Cheryl Hines repeatedly warns him to stop. The snakes can be seen twisting around Kennedy’s hands and biting him multiple times while he tries to remove them from the property.

@FoxNews What a legend! Most people wouldn't even wrangle one black racer snake at a time! He does two at once. Chuck Norris is probably smiling down at him.

@EspioCars @JucheAffirmer It's funny you say that, because according to science journals, the cure for peanut allergies is to eat very small amounts of peanuts and increase the amount over time. Don't try this, btw. I'm not a doctor or a nutritionist.

@JucheAffirmer What do these people think “lactose intolerance” is Is not like a fucking peanut allergy, you can overcome an intolerance if you eat the thing enough

THE REASON CHEESE WAS INVENTED WAS BECAUSE IT FUCKING DESTROYS THE LACTOSE IN THE MILK YOU ABSOLUTE GODDAMN RETARDS

@2000and1 @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx You're a Skippy strayan convict. Begone convict.

@WizardSynth @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Seppo, take the hint. You can barely find Oz on the map. Yet you hold the mistaken belief you have opinions worth anything on the Australian taxation system. Shoo shoo seppo.

This is where the “tax the rich” crowd lose me. Say I earn 90k a year and in 2027 I inherit $200,000 I invest that $200k and after 10 years in the stock market it’s now worth $400k If I sell it and realise the $200k capital gain, what the govt and the “tax the rich” crowd are saying is that I should be taxed as if I make $290k every year. Now if I try and split that CGT income across 2 people I’m “greedy” and avoiding tax But if I sell down in 4x $100k lots over 4 years and minimise my tax, that’s ok and nobody bats an eyelid - but it’s the same principle.

@2000and1 @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx That's a very feminine response. You should be in the kitchen or cleaning up the house. Leave politics to the rational thinkers.

@2000and1 @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Begone peasant! Nobody cares about your CGT. If all the liberals in Australia are as insufferable as you, it's no wonder you're where you're at.

@WizardSynth @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx There you go again being all igorant. You think CGT is insignificant in Australia? I can absolutely berate you for being igorant. There is only one person is to blame for that. 🫵 You have nothing to offer you pest.

@samtripoli I don't think they were all in the same crashed UFO, but rather, of all the crashed UFOs (many more than 4) only 4 different species were found.

What were they in an UberX share?

@Logan3772794676 @jmup @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Even after retirement, a withdrawal from a 401k is taxed, homey.

@WizardSynth @jmup @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx A withdrawal is not tax free until after you retire just like any other retirement savings

@2000and1 @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx It was about capital gains. You can't just pick a random insignificant topic nobody cares about and berate people for not knowing about it. There are plenty of things you don't know too. Shoo yourself, pest. I didn't invite you to respond to me.

@WizardSynth @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Yet here you are displaying your ignorance on a post about CGT in Australia. SHoo pest.

@Logan3772794676 @jmup @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx I'm surprised that there are people who both a) know what a 401k is, and b) believe they are tax free. What other wierd things do you think? I'm curious.

@WizardSynth @jmup @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx They are

@2000and1 @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Most people are ignorant of whatever insignificant political nonsense is going on in your irrelevant country.

@WizardSynth @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Ignorance dressed up as humour. How dull. Shoo Seppo. SHOO

@ClownWorld I can see how someone might get offended, but this was normal in my town. She put it in the trash can, which is owned by Waste Management or whoever, not the home owner. I would let it slide, mostly because I'd like to do the same, and there are more important things.

Woman walking her dog stops in front of a stranger’s house, throws a bag of dog poop into their trash can, and casually walks away like nothing happened. Some people really treat other people’s property like their personal garbage dump. Would you say something if you saw this or just let it slide?

@2000and1 @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx I'm probably not a seppo, because I don't know what that is. And I'm not Australian. I'm American. And I don't give two flips what you guys do, as long as you'll admit that Koalas are, in fact, bears. After all, they have all of the koalafications.

@WizardSynth @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Of course you're a seppo. Australian society has consistently reaffirmed that a fairly applied progressive taxation system is in the countrys best interests. Now shoo pest.

@DocDoc21516 @lomaxx To make it clear, for the majority of people, the best way to build wealth is to buy assets (i.e. invest). An unrealized capital gains tax would ruin that opportunity for hundreds of millions of regular people, and also destroy the economy. Hard pass.

@Lucktar1 @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Absolutely not! I would never wish taxes on someone, under any circumstances.

@WizardSynth @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx So you think unrealized capital gains should be taxed?

@jmup @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx I'm not an accountant, but I'm pretty sure 401ks are not tax free, buddy ol' pal.

@WizardSynth @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx No, he inherits 200k in one year, then makes an investment with unknown payout. If you want to make it tax free , this’s is what a retirement savings plan / 401k is for.

@BharatMosy @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Well, I'm glad you're not in charge of anything important! ;)

@WizardSynth @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx I'm all for unrealized capital gains taxes if that's what you're calling for but I don't think you'd like that

@2000and1 @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx No, I don't think there should be any tax of any kind for anyone, ever.

@WizardSynth @DocDoc21516 @lomaxx Are you arguing for taxation of unrealised gains? Becuase it sounds like you are arguing for taxation of unrealised gains.

Why are people so cringe on X? It's as if they think some idea is so profound and don't realize how ordinary it is. Is it mostly just boomers who do this?
