@ick_real An agreement between you and your bank that they put up the cash and you own the housing price appreciation

@HenMazzig @HellfireDamn We’re well past this derivative of symbolism shit.

I’m all for representation of Palestinians, but Prada posting a video to their 33M+ followers of their new “Palestinian ambassador” Saint Levant wearing a necklace shaped like the entire land with Israel erased, that’s a message. If an Israeli, or any Jew, wore a pendant that included Gaza, the outrage would be instant. But erasing Israel, “from the river to the sea,” gets a luxury campaign.

@str_xs @Matt24695841 @whatkamisays If Stalin was your passive-aggressive aunt.

@errorsimulator @Matt24695841 @whatkamisays So it's worse than regular socialism

how is socialism bad when everyone in new york seems to be having a much better time than everyone else

@buddsdead @HeroicRecaps @Brellionaires @MendlovitzMark Yeah fine, we’re still going to have a term for the people here before Columbus.

@HeroicRecaps @Brellionaires @MendlovitzMark I am a Native American. I have no other country than the one my ancestors carved out of the wilds of America.

I've been told by a friend from Ohio that one of the reasons the elites are so hysterical about Haitians having to go home, even some Republicans, is apartment owners love renting to them, especially if they are paying government-subsidized rents. Think about the insanity of that. We are subsidizing the rents of foreign nationals, driving up the cost of housing for native Americans by diminishing supply and increasing demand. That is as un-American as anything our government could do to us.

@MappingFL No they’re not. You’re goo g to have terrible career in data, if you can’t tell that.

It never ceases to amaze me that it’s so hard to people to say - Oct 7 was an unjustifiable attack against civilians and a crime against humanity - Israel’s far-right gov used the attack to perpetuate a genocide in Gaza and other Palestinian lands BOTH of these things are true

@brondumkm @PiperK Sorry, graduated kindergarten more than 50 years ago

@errorsimulator @PiperK Fine, so then we can agree The Lancet's not who put the politics in this issue. A policy had widespread medical effects and they're investigating them. Or should they not just to avoid seeming biased? Or out of deference to Elon Musk's feelings? Or something?

Wow. A Lancet study says Elon Musk will have killed 14 million people by 2030. Lancet is the world's top medical journal.

@SenSanders @JasonRuderman Because come retirement age they’ll take out the same as someone making $184,500. They paying the same amount for the same later pay out. Just as we all pay the same for the same Big Mac or iPad.

Compensation Last Year CEO of Tesla & SpaceX: $158 billion CEO of Warner Brothers: $165 million CEO of Blackstone: $126 million They pay the same amount into Social Security as someone making $184,500. Let's end that absurdity, scrap the cap and raise Social Security benefits.

@FluentInFinance The voters, like all people, are responsible for their own lives. We respect human agency. If people want to earn more it’s their responsibility to build the human capital and skills that are rewarded with higher compensation. No one thinks “it’s good enough.”

Senators should make whatever their state minimum wage is. If it’s enough for their voters, it should be enough for them loll.

@mikesully97 @TrinityMustache Dems don’t like the working class. They like “the vanguard of the working class.”

@TrinityMustache At least he’s finally saying it. Jeffries - and other Dems - need to make this point over and over every time they speak. DSA is a playground for spoiled rich kids. Period. Catering to the top 20% of the income scale is is costing us a ton of votes in the bottom 80%.

Gaza is US electoral only an issue for spoiled rich kids with no real problems. DSA is performative luxury politics.

@austincampbell If they have to have their poison, can we at least have some areas without it?

I am watching the left propose increasingly bad (rent freeze, minimum wage hikes, huge tax increases) proposals that will wreck the economy. This is driven by anger from young voters, who are priced out of housing, can't get jobs, and feel like the system is rigged against them. And you know what? They are right. It is. What I'm not seeing is any politician, Democrat or Republican, courageous enough to point out the real issue: Boomers voted themselves huge future benefits but did not fund them, so now we are running huge deficits to pay for them while talking about raising taxes on people who weren't even born yet when those things were decided to pay the olds. The reality is this: young people in the US, to save yourselves, you're going to have to tear down the programs for the Boomers, rationalize immigration laws to ensure you get first look at American jobs and companies have the incentive to put them here, force housing to be built, and massively cut federal (and in many cases, state) spending and the size of the government. Any politician who is not willing to tell you the truth about this is fucking you. Trump? Fucking you. Mamdani? Also fucking you. If you can't figure this out, things will get worse from here.

@Seabreezerwoo @JamesTate121 The latter is included in the former.

@errorsimulator @JamesTate121 Wanting the government to quit being wasteful and quit bailouts of corporations is a reasonable ask.

Wanting affordable, healthcare, housing, childcare and food with livable wages and a clean environment is not "far left". It's called not wanting to live in despair.

@kkalev @BrettErickson28 And if something you now don’t expect happens, what’s the political “success” timeline.

@errorsimulator @BrettErickson28 You are trying to achieve political goals using military means. I will keep pressing my opinion on military realities and facts on the ground, thank you very much The reality is that the attempt to impose political goals through military means failed and will fail in the future

As I have said repeatedly over the last 72 hours: The United States is seeing a concerted effort behind the scenes from the Israeli Lobby and Iran Hawks to retroactively alter the terms of the Memorandum of Understanding in the hopes that Trump will take the bait which would collapse peace talks and force a return to war. That is the goal. Iran won the war. Iran gets to dictate the terms. If we do not agree to those terms, Iran will close the Strait. It's. That. Simple.

@kkalev @BrettErickson28 What I’m asking for is a subjective opinion of political “success.” You’re qualified to give that. Your keep opining about military tactical realities. I don’t need that from you. Thanks for the effort, but it’s not needed. Back to the question.

@errorsimulator @BrettErickson28 I am stating my opinion and you are stating your opinion (based on zero facts). I suggest you climb down your narcissist high horse

@kkalev @BrettErickson28 But I don’t care about your opinion of that. I’m asking a different question. If things can change, and you’re not in the Pentagon with the best information, so leave it to them, what would be the timeframe for “success” changing the Iranian government ?

@errorsimulator @BrettErickson28 Like I said, any further military engagement with Iran will lead to further defeats so it's best that he cut his losses short

@tonyannett Decisions made in 1996. Might make different decisions now. Like people leaving California

These hypocrites have their offices on 48th and 6th. Why don’t they piss off out of the city?

@kkalev @BrettErickson28 Great. Thanks for the update of things known by anyone reading the public press. Anyway, how long does Trump have for this period to count as successful?

@errorsimulator @BrettErickson28 Well, Iran has whole buildings filled with trained engineers (60% of the total US engineer population) & will make sure that the US will lose in every future military engagement. See what I did here?

@GavinNewsom Government causes higher prices and stagnation. Astute people want government to loosen the collar and leash. Government people such as Newsom want more government.

It's time for a national billionaires tax and a new social contract. 10% of Americans own two-thirds of the wealth. Wages have stagnated. The cost of living has skyrocketed.  The system is fundamentally broken. The federal tax code, a corporate code, and an inheritance code were written for a different set of Americans.  It’s time for an economic reset. @gavinnewsom" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@gavinnewsom

@cenkuygur Normal people don’t have to shuck and jive to defend normal positions from people who make stupid assumptions and redefine normal words. “If you eat chicken, you must clarify you’re not a cannibal.” Or I can ignore the idiot, who’s a waste of time.

If you're a Zionist who believes there should be a safe Israel within the 1967 borders, but is opposed to the genocide in Gaza and all of the wars Israel has started against its neighbors, you should speak up. Otherwise, people will assume Zionist means pro-genocide and pro-war.

@CarolCcs1222 @NYCWolfgang @alexzenciks @unusual_whales I was. Keep throwing out useful facts, please. Not everyone is so ideological or willfully ignorant we can’t keep refining what we think.

@errorsimulator @NYCWolfgang @alexzenciks @unusual_whales Ha! If you’re by any chance referring to me ….I just might pass this on to my adult children regardless. They are in their 50’s & it’s always nice having positive remarks 😂. Y’all have a great Friday.

BREAKING: Bill to raise minimum wage to $25 an hour will be introduced in Senate

@JesusSavesPHL @Reniec7 @0xDavecryps The thing about feigning or pretending misery and dissatisfaction all the time is “if you cross your eyes, they might stick that way. “

@errorsimulator @Reniec7 @0xDavecryps There’s nothing creative about this………These accounts are pretending to be Dissatisfied and depressed Millennial Americans……And spreading misery and dissatisfaction.

HOT TAKE: If you inherit a mortgage free property and charge $2,700 a month in rent, you’re not getting rich from hard work. You didn’t create the asset. You didn’t assume the risk. You didn’t spend years paying it off. But the teacher, nurse, or mechanic renting it is expected to work 40+ hours a week to fund your monthly paycheck. And somehow that’s called “earning” money. Make it make sense.

@JesusSavesPHL @Reniec7 @0xDavecryps Ironically I’m interested in Africa. A lot of my career has been there. I welcome creative perspective from there. I know tons of people with great POVs and information. If I were 25 again, that’s where I’d be entrepreneurial. But this ain’t it. Why’s X pushing it this way?

@errorsimulator @Reniec7 @0xDavecryps I have no idea why there are so many of these African bots posting such obviously false stories 8 times a day. I’m not sure what Africans gain other than a small amount of engagement money…….China or Russia I could understand the desire to sow such discord and dissatisfaction..
