These guys will let you get mangled in an industrial accident if it would save them a quick buck.
Especially when the first things they do are start taking apart consumer and environmental protections, disband social safety nets, increase taxes (tariffs) on imported goods, attack FEMA, and stop farm subsidies, all of which hurt the working class.
Not only do people still believe the ridiculous lie, they believe it despite the mountain of evidence they don't give a fuck about you.
You hate the Republican party so much you support government waste over accountability for our tax dollars. That's completely insane.
The reason you are being down voted is because the current administration is not doing that. They SAY that's what they are doing, but pay attention to their actual actions and who is benefitting. Look at the outcomes. It is the opposite of what you want.
Here is the crazy thing, I am very left wing, but I agree with you on the point of bringing down wasteful spending and that we should have accountability for government spending and such. But Trump and Elon are not at all doing those things. They are in this for their own selfish desires and agendas and they have convinced a lot of people otherwise. They are cutting the parts of government that oppose them or that they don't like and none of that is going to have any significant impact on the budget. Go look up how much we spend on our defense budget or other big costs. Maybe we should stop sending bombs all over the world? Maybe we don't need to spend more than half the other countries on earth combined? Maybe we shouldn't have a system that allows a dozen people to have more wealth stolen and hoarded from the rest of the country? Maybe we need some fair wages for our hard work so that you and I can be a hard working American that gets fairly paid for our labors? The American Dream doesn't work if you can work your whole life and still be in debt, while someone else can rake in billions without working at all, but simply because they own you and the company you work for.
I would wager that you and I want the same things. To be able to work and provide for ourselves and our family, to have enough to eat and have a home and hobbies and enjoy life. We want to feel like we contribute to our community. We want to create things and fix things and make things around us better for ourselves and others. We want to love and be loved. We want a government that REPRESENTS the people and invests in things that benefit us and help us and doesn't waste it or tax us unfairly for it.
So why do you think the Republican party is helping you when they have a track record of voting for tax cuts to the billionaires and mega corporations and simultaneously raising your individual taxes? Why are they telling you to fear and hate immigrants when they are the backbone and the reason our country even started? Why are they telling you to fear and hate trans people that just want to exist and be who they are? Why are they NOT saying a word about the trillions of wasted money on military? The trillions stolen from us hard working Americans that goes into the pockets of the already rich like Elon? Could it be that they are lying to us?
Go look at the actions they make and look past the words they speak and tell me what you find.
Our system has/had accountability baked into it. Rather than rely on our separation of powers and independent inspectors general, you chuckle fucks, in your infinite lack of wisdom, decided to hand our government over to a Nazi billionaire with glaring conflicts of interest.
Accountability? Puuuuuuhlease.
I don't hate the republican party. But the current party isn't the republican party. I disagreed with the republican party, which is different. The current iteration has people in charge who have literally no understanding or don't actually care how the government works and what is needed. They aren't reducing "waste", they are just using that as an excuse to try and get rid of anything they don't like or don't agree with. The sooner you start to understand that the better. Because you don't have enough understanding of what's actually going on to have a legitimate discussion about it. It's like someone who doesn't understand algebra trying to have a discussion about calculus.
Way to sound stupid in under two sentences
Bro we're nowhere close to bottoming out, so I hope you're ready. You'll feel it when we pass the point of no return.
Methinks that has passed, the bottom is a long way off yet, however point of no return is long gone
The point of no return was when a bunch of wealthy slavers decided to create a country by and for themselves. Everything else is just projection and propaganda.
Republicans are dumber than dogshit.
Hey! I like dogs
What tool do people use to make these images with big text? Let alone why bother generating an image where text alone would have been equally sufficient, what even causes these things to come into existence?
Also I 100% agree with the text itself

Stands out against raw text posts, on here, but probably originating on sites like Facebook.
Yeah that seems like some Facebook shit
Because some people don't know how to copy and paste text, and other people don't discourage these posts by downvoting them.
I am on my scooter today putting up these flyers; I encourage everyone to spread the news
24 hours... lol
How long do you think a strike would need to be for to be effective?
And suppose we start with that? Everyone'd be like "that's way too long". So let's start with a day and build from there. And if a day makes them take action then everyone's a winner.
They're testing how many people they can get on board to do this. Consider it a trial run.
Watch a bunch of bootlicking red hats turn up and buy twice as much as they normally do to "own the libs" in some way.
I hope this workouts!
Astronomical mental instability
well people follow organized religions blindly so....yes
I think r/conservative said it best themselves
Lord God i just realized. Check the time, too.
I'm the deepest bottom. 😤
We're all very impressed, and maybe a little terrified.
Just had a conversation with my mother, this afternoon, in which I tried to explain to her that Bill Gates and Warren Buffet were not working in the best interests of the country.
I can't fathom how anyone could think someone is working for your best interests while simultaneously holding half our nation's entire wealth just for themselves.
If the other player in Monopoly has all the money and properties and you have nothing, do you still say they are working for your best interests? Wake up, they won the game and you lost.
(Edit: That is directed at your mom and mine and all the others that won't pay attention to reality)

We're not playing Monopoly. We don't all start with an equal chance at taking the board and we don't get to restart the game after one person "wins".
We live in a society heavily predicated on private patronage. And yes, people who work their entire lives to achieve the rank of Chief Crony (or even Assistant Deputy Minion to the Chief Crony) and enjoy a comfortable middle class lifestyle as a result, absolutely believe that the Lord In His Castle is working in your best interests by protecting you from the Vikings at the gate and the Angry Starving Peasants rioting in the fields.
Maybe you don't believe your Lord is a divine agent serving the will of the heavens. But it's your job to build giant statues and frescos of him with a big golden glowing crown. So of course you're not going to suggest that work is meaningless (or outright predatory) in public.
Also doesn't hurt that the Town Crier has been saying "All Hail Lord Buffet! Kindest and Gentlest of Royal Souls! He is far better than the disreputable Lord Musk or Lord Koch who live in the evil castle on the other side of the river" since the day the Berkshire Hathaway Committee to Promote Public Information hired him. Are you going to disagree with the Town Crier? What? Are you allied with the Lords on the Other Side of the River? Fuck you, then.
I’m not even American, but I see constant posts about how “if you hate two men you’re part of the problem” and “he’s not coming after your money” or something.
Also not American and I have acquaintances that believe that these billionaires are good and working for the good of the People. I can't for the life of me understand how they reached this conclusion and all they say to justify is that all negative things said about them is "woke" nonsense....
It was recently reported that something like 30/40% of the U.K. likes Trump and Musk, but even with that low number, I see loads of people say how amazing they think they are on social media.
What group of billionaires? What's the context here?
R U nuts?
Elon Musk and his ilk
Just curious, are you american or that white kind of European?
No worries either way. But yea america is in a very visible stage of capitalist controlled oligarchy. The billionaires who run said oligarchy are using propaganda to make it seem like the oligarchy will help the voters who voted for the puppets of said oligarchy.
Ummmm hope this helps or I die before i need to pay a utility bill for oxygen!
I thought Trump was Putin's bottom.
It is truly baffling to me how desperate some people are to believe this. What in human history has shown any indication that what is happening now is for any benefit other than the billionaires?
Look, i'm not american. Context please? Who believes that?
And where's the accessible text?
You clearly have the context since you said you're not American. But to spell it out the context is america electing these people. There's news articles if you really care, none of us need to spend our time hand feeding you a summary.
