  1. Omg you totally don’t even get it. Are you really that dense or are you trying to distort the issue? The issue is NOT how many hours Hannity claims to work…he’s a multimillionaire with all kinds of lackeys and staffers to do his work for him so he’s probably lying about his own efforts. The issue as you surely know but are trying to avoid is how many hour ls he thinks EVERYONE ELSE should work just to afford a basic standard of living. Like a typical rich conservatives asshole, he believes the sacrifices and hardships of the working class are never too great and the minor nuisances and inconveniences of elites like him are never too small
  2. Just more pro-austerity propaganda from the usual suspects who want more of the disastrous Reagan-Thatcher austerity that has degraded first world living standards and ravaged the working class for the last 40 years. Besides Rrght-wing tax cuts for the rich and corporations have done more to drive up debt than spending has.
  3. You say you heard on YouTube that the moon is made out of green cheese (no link provided). If someone wants to dispute that they have to show you why it’s not true? At least your backwards logic is consistent… Republicans always try to argue that all their baseless zero-evidence accusations are automatically true and must be accepted as fact, and that WE have the burden of proof to provide evidence disproving them.: “Prove there WASN’T a vast liberal conspiracy to steal the 2020 election, to traffic child sex slaves, to forge Kenyan Obama’s US Birth Certificate, to hide Saddam’s WMD and Al Qaeda links, to cover up the Clinton’s murders“ There is labour shortage across the developed world. There are more vacant jobs than there are workers to fill them. To your second point and link, the shrinking Labour Force doesn’t mean higher unemployment. Unemployed people looking for work are still counted as part of the Labour Force People over retirement age are not counted in the Labour Force. That now includes our largest age demographic: Boomers and the older Gen Xers. Anecdotally there also seem to be some who dropped out of the labour force voluntarily: they quit or lost their job during the pandemic and have just decided they are not going back to work, they are stay-at-home parents or went back to school or otherwise just realized that they and their spouse can more happily live on just one working income, things like that. But it’s hard to argue that’s Biden’s fault and those numbers are relatively few anyways.
  4. Are you claiming its contributing to recession or inflation? Do you even know the meaning of the words you’re throwing around? The coming recession is being deliberately engineered to counteract inflation. Circulating money doesn’t cause recessions …it does the opposite in fact. While it can CONTRIBUTE TO inflation, the covid relief benefits by themselves will not cause inflation. There are many factors at play and COViD benefits are minimal. Like I said it’s typical that conservatives focus on attacking the working class over inflation and ignore other factors like all the price gouging and profit hoarding their beloved corporations are engaged in. As for Hannity you find the details here: Sean Hannity: Work 90 Hours a Week If You're Poor Typical Conservative fare. Remember when George Bush Jr actually brought a single mother on stage during a town hall, to celebrate the fact that she had to work 3 jobs to make ends meet? “You work three jobs? Uniquely American, isn't it? I mean, that is fantastic that you're doing that." - GWB To a divorced mother of three, Omaha, Nebraska, Feb. 4, 2005Source: https://quotepark.com/quotes/1111897-george-w-bush-you-work-three-jobs-uniquely-american-isnt-it/
  5. Nope, nothing “trolling” about the way I dismantle your empty, generic, fact-free, evidence-free posts and you can’t stand it.
  6. Lmao how stupid can YOU be? You’re not even writing coherent sentences here. All those high wages workers are earning are welfare….or something…. The COVID stimulus was not “welfare” and is not responsible for inflation. Like a typical conservative, you’re just trotting out the wealthy elite”s usual complaint that the poor and working classes have too much money and too much freedom. This is the hypocrisy of the right’s phoney populism. Like multimillionaire propagandist Sean Hannity’s recent rant about working Americans who are financially struggling: “Maybe instead of working 40 hours a week, work 70, 80, 90 hours. And I know people don’t like to hear that advice.” What a working class hero ?
  7. Lol. You guys repeat that same empty line about every Democrat, it has no meaning. We get it, you voted for the other guy therefore “(insert name here) is the worst president in history” and during elections “(insert name here) is the most radical socialist in Washington”. It’s like a broken record.
  8. What is your definition of “pandering”?
  9. Car control laws don’t keep cars out of the hands of criminals either amd they only apply to law abiding citizens …right? By that logic why have any laws at all since criminals don’t obey laws? Why outlaw murder or rape when criminals don’t obey laws? Also do you believe the second amendment gives Americans the right to own nuclear weapons or other WMD? If not why not? Have you actually thought any of your arguments through?
  10. See? Learning can be entertaining after all. You don’t have to be uneducated you know. FACT: a sudden rapid increase in widespread prosperity can lead to short-term inflation : when people suddenly have more money to spend than there are goods and services immediately available for them to buy, prices go up.
  11. “Pandering”? Why is it “pandering”? Do you fascists consider all democracy “pandering”?
  12. Dude you cling to your baseless accusations to the bitter end. The cops have been arrested. No drugs or other evidence to support your lies were found. Breonnas family received a multimillion dollar settlement and charges against her bf who returned fire on the cops were nullified by the courts Theres ZERO evidence for your lies and reality is shaping up against your lies as usual. Go on, say it with me: “CONSPIRACYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!”
  13. It’s always been the case that you can’t trust Wikipedia for controversial or disputed topics simply because interest groups mount campaigns to change entries. Famously, over a decade ago Stephen Colbert was able to convince enough of his viewers to officially change Wikipedia's entry on elephants to falsely state that the elephant population has tripled over the last six months. It was part of a bit he did about “Wikiality” - the idea thanks to the intense, reality is now unfortunately subject to revision and if you convince enough people that something false is actually true, it ends up becoming accepted as the truth. I guess Republicans were watching with all their Big Lie and constant fake news nonsense. Im not here to defend Wikipedia but I doubt their administrators are so numerous and have so much free time as to monitor and control the content of millions of pages of content which are constantly edited by literally anyone in the world Saying that their reporting of Hunter Biden’s laptop mirrors mainstream coverage of it makes sense.
  14. “He Seems like”. Lol AFAIK There’s no editorial board at wikipedia making decisions on the teuth. My understanding is that content is completely crowd sources from the general public so it sounds like just more conservative whining that their minority views and propaganda aren’t being treated as indisputable facts.
  15. He is super old, I don’t think he should run again either. Inflation is a worldwide problem its not something caused by Biden and you people should know better than to believe the right wing charlatans peddling simple cures for complex worldwide problems But everyone agrees that inflation is temporary and is largely a result of the economic boom coupled with mass retirement of baby boomers, which was accelerated by the pandemic and then followed by other people leaving their old jobs to fill the boomers’ vacancies, especially leaving front line “essential worker” jobs for better opportunities and to work from home. Inflation will return to near-normal rates around this time next year by most estimates
  16. That’s all you got to say? Can’t even bother to deny it eh? Typical fascist “so what” response when confronted with the facts.
  17. America has been a joke since the Trump buffoon took office and it was a tragedy ling before that. Its no less safe than it has been in recent years. As for prosperity, the monthly jobs report out today showed that the US economy created 528,000 new jobs last month -!more than double what economists had predicted - as the unemployment rate fell to 3.5%. It was the 19th consecutive month of positive job growth. The US has regenerated all of the jobs lost during the Trump administration at the start of COVID. The May and June numbers weee equally rosy and the trailing final numbers for those months, also now released, show they created 28,000 more jobs than initially reported. The report also shows that American workers have received a 5.2% increase in average earnings over the past 12 months, which was also above expert forecasts. There is an engineered recession coming though, because the economy is too hot and prosperous, which is driving inflation. So central banks are raising interest rates until the economy cools and contracts a little.
  18. Not true. Gun control and car control both have provisions that address the users and the objects. The laws specifying the standards that car manufacturers must meet and what condition owners must keep them in are abundant. Do you not drive? And, like Car control, gun control also address the person by specifying who can and can’t own a gun, how it must be safely used/stored, and proper records kept. Car control requires a license with practical and written tests, traceable registration, and insurance, and so should gun control.
  19. Abortion only gets banned when it’s done by the Republican Party elite forcing their will on the people. Whenever abortion bans are put to a popular vote even Republican voters don’t want it.
  20. So why would car control be effective but not gun control?
  21. In this latest update we fund Republicans doing as they’re wont to do, admiring Hitler and …oh look! ANOTHER Republican pedophile! Hitler-Loving Republican Hires Convicted Sex Offender ..,Joel Sartori, a former controller of Paladino’s development firm, was convicted on charges related to possessing and promoting child pornography in 2017, and sentenced to 10 years probation. Paladino has kept Sartori on his payroll as assistant controller for Ellicott Development. “Joel has been with me for ages,” Paladino told the Post, ”He served his punishment for what he did. He’s a wonderful employee.” …“I was thinking the other day about how somebody had mentioned on the radio Adolf Hitler and how he aroused the crowds,” Paladino said in audio obtained by watchdog group Media Matters. “And he would get up there screaming these epithets and these people were just — they were hypnotized by him … I guess that’s the kind of leader we need today. We need somebody inspirational. We need somebody that is a doer, has been there and done it.” https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/carl-paladino-hired-convicted-sex-offender-1382976/amp/
  22. What you list are factors, but it’s a primary fact that places with no cars have no car accidents and places with many cars have many car accidents Another major factor beyond availability is regulation. Are you arguing that traffic laws aka “car control” have no impact on traffic accidents?
  23. You lose again, more cops are going down foe Breonna’s killing And as were already pointed out, there were no drugs going to her home Breonna Taylor: US police charged over shooting death 4 August 2022 Updated 5 August 2022 Four US police officers have been arrested and charged over the fatal shooting of Breonna Taylor. …Mr Meany and Mr Jaynes are alleged to have violated Ms Taylor's civil rights by preparing a false search warrant affidavit. Ms Goodlett allegedly conspired with Mr Jaynes to falsify the warrant….According to prosecutors, Mr Jaynes and Ms Goodlett met in a parking garage days after the shooting to arrange a cover story to justify the falsified evidence that led to the warrant. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-62427546.amp
  24. Other small countries haven’t had the random misfortune of an isolated incident that will send their numbers skyrocketing. The whole “per capita” approach is a red herring trying to leverage USAs large population against much smaller European countries France is also much smaller than USA and most of its mass shootings wee terrorist attacks during a specific period whereas USA is random crazies that can and do go off at any time Between 1998 to 2019, the United States reported 101 attacks and 816 deaths from mass shootings. France had just eight mass shootings and 179 deaths, most are from terrorist attacks that occurred after 2014. Of course the availability of guns is related to incidence of gun crimes the same way availability of cars is related to incidence of car accidents and the availability of ice cream is related to incidence of ice cream stains. It’s idiotic to think otherwise.
