That's better than the Bundy joke I made on another post about this. 😆

It's okay Saudi Arabia and Russia are going to buy a million pair, then they'll never be produced and transacted. Easy money

Anyone seen wearing those things should be slapped and sent back to school.

You think they are going to learn anything at a school?

They should be dropped off in the hood.

Are you saying that a neighborhood of racially segregated and impoverished people are going to murder a person because of the shoes they are wearing?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Nope, what kinda racist projection is that? They should be forced to walk through an area that they wouldn't set foot in voluntarily.

If they are respectful they won't have problems. If they aren't they might learn a valuable lesson.

You're digging deeper...

The mature response to saying something accidentally racist is to apologize, take it on the chin, possibly learn something, and move on.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And I'm not the one who suggested they would be murdered.

"He did a bad thing so my bad thing isn't bad"?

You’re saying that all “hoods” are violent, which is untrue. You watch too much TV. You should delete your shit comments instead of trying to dig yourself out.

Did I say that? Or are you filling in blanks?

Forceful exposure to situations other than the ones that would create a trump scyophant is one of the most effective ways to show themnthat they have more in common with the people in the hood than they do with a wannabe demagogue.

Who's producing these hideous things? I wouldn't hold back the urge to point and laugh if I saw them in public

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

It was Fred and Mary Anne Trump, and I’m with you.

There are three heels in that photo.

I hear they have extra padding for your bone spurs to help you outrun the draft board.

900.000 won't cut it. Even double that won't cover his fines

[–] octoblade 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

$399 * 900000 = $359,100,000

Might be enough to cover the fines in his NY case, but not the interest.

You are forgetting production costs, distributor cuts, tax, shipping etc. He won't get $399 for every pair. These are not NFT images. They cost money to make and sell

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Unless... it was never the plan to make them.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

You are forgetting that Trump just straight up refuses to pay anyone for their work.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That's bold to assume they will actually be made

Different fellow. This has nothing to do with the famous visual artist and sculptor
