  • What’s ironic is the same people advocating for policies that, basically make it flat out stupid to have kids in this world… are also the ones like “why no one want kids”.

    OK so yeah the worlds shifted from where one income working 40 hours a week can comfortably afford a 3-4 bedroom house and food for 4+… to you’ll be lucky if 2 incomes is enough to afford a shitty one bedroom apartment unless you both are also swimming in school debt. If your 2 incomes happens to be enough to raise kids… well good luck actually raising them as paying someone to take care of your kids is likely equal to your smaller income (at which point you aren’t actually making a second income, but trading off to get away from your kids).

    So yeah the 2 options are… 1. Give up this “Infinate growth everywhere”. can’t both have us working more and more for less and less… also cut out all safety nets, then expect us to invest in kids, who we also never will see because were always working…




  • Honestly at this point, I’m not sure which has the greater cost to life. I’m starting to think, maybe this is the fastest way to tangently demonstrate how fucking full of shit this guy is. He blows up a few space ships, no one’s directly effected. Maybe running over one or 2 kids directly with a robo taxi will wake enough over to “maybe we shouldn’t let this guy kick tens of thousands of americans off healthcare.”

    (not saying this is a good thing, but of a trolly problem. Musk has spent hte last 6 months getting in positions to do horrible things to so many people, and god knows how many deahts he’s responsible for. Maybe if he messes up and does a few of the kinds of deaths that people get scared over and take action, than things will go better.



  • Ah yes, my state, the one that turned the primaries to hell to Bernie… one that’s largely hailed as some reason an important state in the democratic primary, in spite of the fact that we all know there’s a zero percent chance anyone who puts a D next to their name is going to win it in the general. Guess it’s sort of the practice for democrats general strategy… (butcher the hell out of everything you stand for to try to win over the right… get zero votes from far right anyway).
