The democrats were actively pushing for 2000 dollar checks as their big issue in georgia even after it became obvious that a stimulus bill including 600 dollar checks was going to be passed, and I can bring up plenty of concrete examples of this. Did they campaign on completing out 2000 dollar checks over 2 or 3 months? No, they campaigned on the promise that they would immediately pass a bill sending $2000 checks out the door. They lied, and I'm sick and tired of neoliberal types making excuses for this bullshit cheating of the american people. People need that money.

It may be far too late, but TIME just admitted to voter fraud.

"Not rigging the election"? Yeah, sure.

Don't expect me to respond to any quotes. I don't want to get sucked back in here.
They make stupid articles like this to try to appeal to the stupid trump supporters so they can get more money. They usually make evidence out of their asses or use evidence thats really weak. Again, they do this to appeal to trump supporters so they can get more money. Its genius and really stupid.

Noice, texas wants to be stupid again. Apparently they want to have a discussion to see if they want to seperate from the U.S and become a indenpent state. News flash, It's impossible to leave the U.S once you joined. Abe already told that, and the laws haven't been changed since. Though I do find it fucking hilarous that Texas cant leave the U.S, but they can split into at most 5 smaller states for some reason.

it's not just that people are stupid
it's that the filthy rich hedge funds and corps that tried to short gamestop to death in the first place are nigh invincible
...especially when the SEC is asleep at the wheel and the only person they can think to investigate is DFV for some stupid fucking reason
yup
People don't care about it going down.
What's the primary issue, is that when they the hedge fund managers start loosing money, they can minuplate the market, and change the rules.
except it's just a classic pump and dump scheme we've all seen before. people are going to lose the shirt off their back from this stupid shit. the finance sector doesn't give two shits about GME. it's 1-3 hedge funds losings billions which is basically nothing compared to the flow of the finance sector. anyone who bought into GME in the last 3 weeks are going to be hurting in a month. quote me.

It's not a classic pump and dump. Primary issue with a Pump and Dump is that you have to prove that wallstreetbets were making misleading claims, or exaggerated ones to get people to buy.
They never did that. And then some of it goes both ways. if you saw the video I sent (legal eagles) it's not super clear

I'm personally just sick of the two party system.
Like for example, democrats finally purpose a bill to raise minimum wage. Great!
But... it won't come into 2025? what, the actual fuck. That's too late too little.
15 is already too low. Our rent is about 40% of our wage (likely more)
So here's the democrats doing meh, but then you get the republican party shitting all over the damn floor with a identity crisis, since right now they are quite literately the party of lies. almost non of their stances are based on fact.
And even then, that meh the democrats are doing is leaking shit into their damn pants, since they lack a actual back bone. While republicans are just completely spineless.
Personally I'm just tired of seeing people settling between lesser of two evils. I hope people finally wake up and just vote with their conscious this time. Don't settle for a garbage or lesser garbage. settle with something that is actually pallet able.

Stocks are dictated by the wealthy and elite who puts bets to ruin people's lives.

That isn't true. They are dictated by how much people want them, rich people have more say because they are rich (what is the point of money if it can't buy you what you want?).

So who benefited from the 2008 market crash? definitely wasn't me, or the people I lived with. Who's benefiting from the pandemic? It's definitely not me.

If everyone could win then you wouldn't win anything.

That is the biggest problem with capitalism. You could try socialism, but what tends to happen is that the people who benefit under capitalism are then the ones moaning about how bad things are for them. Then they elect someone like Trump and it all goes to hell.

Depends on your political leanings, if you're a democrat or on the left it's widely acceptable and actually encouraged. If you're not on the left then no you'll get sent to the gulag.

I didn't realise that Trump was a democrat.

I think you just didn't understand what they were saying. They did pass a bill to give $2000 instead of $600, like biden said (which you helpfully posted about earlier in the thread).

I got called a racist white supremacist for using the term "cabal" yet here is Time magazine admitting the entire election is rigged and use the term themselves.

Oh so...
When those weathy people got bailed out when the 2008 market crash. People wanted that to happen? for their tax payer dollars to go to those wealthy people? For them to go then buy the housing market? Even though it was them, those same wealthy ass people, made the market crash of 2008 happen in the first place?
Yeah no I don't buy that.

You know what. let's go talk about this.
So everyone on the right usually goes says that Big government is a problem, that it ruins freedom. problem is that Denmark (one of the highest rated places for freedom and equality) has a big government. The real issue is a bought out government, when companies get to control government.
Again, lobbying really shouldn't exist.
I thought I should perhaps mention this.

2.7 sorry https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/05/media/smartmatic-fox-news-reliable-sources/index.html damn if they lose (and assuming trump doesn't bail them out) that might be it for the only "tangible" right wing media source serves them right for spreadingg the big lie over and over i hope trump is next on their list to sue, (and don't forget all of the copyright violations ) rally songs, Space force logo to name a few) it maybe more fun watching him lose all these lawsuits first then go to prison GENIUS

believe it or not he can run and get elected in 2024(while in prison) but....... this is the fun part because he get's elected while in prison he technicly loses cause an automatic 25th amendment (the impairment clause at least) would make his VP pick gets in automaticly (and i think he'll get knocked out of the chain even if pardoned) so if the impeachment fails (100% will saddly) if and it's an if trump goes to prison he loses if his sentance doesn't a )get commuted or b runs out on Jan 20th,2025 (which i highly doubt considering the amount of charges if the got at him full force) he can't run

So after all that bitching and whining about re-opening schools as soon as possible, Republicans' biggest objection to the COVID relief bill is that it includes "too much funding" for K-12.

God forbid kids learn some critical thinking skills, what we really need is more high school dropouts like Lauren Boebert becoming Congressmen! /s
