@jjh9994 @ennui365 The intent of the thought exercise is to change the system, or a portion of it, so give it a try. BTW, lending and home ownership predates predatory interest-based fractional banking.

@AT2Pro @ennui365 The no one would ever loan money. To start a business to go to school to buy a home Not would you earn interest on your money in the bank. Interest allows you to have access to funds that would not be available to you otherwise.

@frozenaesthetic ‘The Three Musketeers and a Squire’ doesn’t quite have the same ring to it.

>the three musketeers >there's four

@realpeteyb123 Functional reset with term limits for Congress and a total ban on corporate involvement in lobbying. Remove public office as a means to amass wealth.

Democrats suck Republicans suck. What’s the solution?

@RichScotford @nxt888 I’ve met them, and the analysis does show that politics and changing ROEs factored in heavily. The situation was very similar to Afghanistan; allied forces drove out the Taliban, wasn’t allowed to wipe them out, handed governing over to the civilian population, Taliban returns.

@nxt888 I’ve never met an American who said we could’ve won if our hands weren’t tied.

There is a particular type of American who, when confronted with Vietnam, says: "We could have won if the politicians hadn't tied our hands." Let us examine this claim with the respect it deserves. Which is none. At peak deployment, the United States had 543,000 troops in Vietnam. It flew more than 5.2 million combat sorties. It used weapons so advanced that Vietnamese forces had never seen anything like them. It had total air superiority for most of the war. It had naval dominance of the entire coastline. It had satellite intelligence, chemical defoliation, electronic surveillance. It had the full industrial capacity of the wealthiest nation in the history of the world pointed at a country where most people farmed rice by hand. And it lost. Not barely lost. Not lost-on-a-technicality. Lost so completely that the last image of American presence in Vietnam is a helicopter on a rooftop in Saigon and desperate people climbing the walls trying to get on it as the American empire evacuated its failure in real time. Broadcast live. On television. Watched by the entire world. "They tied our hands." With what? What hand was left untied? What weapon was withheld? What tactic was forbidden? The truth is too simple and too brutal for that excuse to cover: You cannot win a war against people willing to fight forever for their own land. You were never going to win. The politicians didn't lose Vietnam. The logic of empire lost Vietnam. Because empire always eventually loses when it meets people who refuse to accept that they are supposed to lose.

@esjesjesj What riders were in those proposals?

They put forth bills to pay TSA 9 times and the republicans voted against them

@myonlinetrust @wickens_richard @ennui365 If they’re government loans, going zero interest would just have them perform accounting kabuki to divert funds from their other source - OUR TAXES. The real way to prevent that is a legal ban on all forms of punitive interest for all loan and credit types.

@wickens_richard @ennui365 If they’re government loans then no, no one would be paying the interest.

@phystro @MorgothsReview No, they’re not the answer either.

@MorgothsReview He will most certainly be impeached after the mid-terms. However the Democrats are not the idle replacement either. We need the Mamdani crowd to take over to see any real change.

I can't understand how Trump is still in office when Bill Clinton was impeached over a blowjob.

@logicensues @icy_pitschy @esjesjesj @grok Oh no, married at 6, waited until she was 9 to consummate, which was a sexual act.

@icy_pitschy @esjesjesj @grok Marrying a 9 year don’t qualify for pedo? Dear god

No community note

@grok @icy_pitschy @esjesjesj You already stated that Muhammed had sex with a 9 year old, which is prepubescent, is this something a person does who is not a pedophile?

Based on primary Islamic sources like Sahih Bukhari 5134, Aisha was 6 at betrothal and 9 at consummation. Modern revisionists cite timelines (e.g., her sister Asma's age, battle participation) arguing 17-19 instead. Clinically, DSM-5 pedophilic disorder requires recurrent intense urges/fantasies toward prepubescents (≤13) over 6+ months, plus acting on them or distress/impairment. No evidence shows this pattern in Muhammad's life—his other wives were adults/widows, this was one alliance marriage in 7th-century norms where young betrothals were common globally. Thus, he does not meet the definition.

@esjesjesj What’s worse, an elected official being a pedo or worshiping a pedo as the perfect human ordained by god?

@blandCinema Huh, will you look at that…

@AT2Pro You should try looking things up before you post

Then why have my wages been stagnant for 20 year while the rich reap massive rewards?

@blandCinema No, wage stagnation means wages haven’t changed, but they’ve also have changed so they are not stagnant, aka unmoving. Wage devaluation is more accurate for what you’re intending to point out, the comparative buying power of those wages has significantly decreased, which is true

@AT2Pro When wage growth is behind inflation is what stagnant wages means

@AntiWokeMemes Not mutually exclusive

Is Greta Thunberg a Communist or a Retard?

@GigaBasedDad Before the Common era

Got'em

@tufpraise Or we’ve gotten tired of the shit and just want them to get it over with already.

This must go so hard if you're stupid

@QuantumGuard17 Except she also had/has access to insider information which the general public does not

AOC says she has “no reason” to cooperate with federal auditors investigating her suspicious $22 million net worth. “I have the same right to privacy as everyone else.” Meanwhile, investigators are baffled—how does a socialist congresswoman go from bartender to multi-millionaire without something shady going on? One federal official warned: “It would be in her best interest to cooperate.” The walls are closing in.

@esjesjesj You have an odd view of video events

Literally a fucking murderer with plenty of video evidence to prove it

@GeoStreber @JeffGreason But I am glad that I did

@AT2Pro @JeffGreason To be fair, it took me a lot of work to convince you to watch Lower Decks.

In light of recent news about whatever happened with "Star Trek", this ever-green parable comes to mind.
