I really hope you are a TURF account, I would have more faith in humanity at that point, at least that person is doing something.

I didn't think you are. Your apathy, hate, and small world view combined with you ignorance in how bad situations can get and the privilege to think it can't happen to you is really sad.

If you are dead set on lying in bed and doing nothing, please do that and shutt the fuck up. Don't spread shit that only benefits the fascists just because you are to ideologically pure to do something.

Overbooking, essentially breaking the contract, and having the police beat a nonviolent doctor unconscious is big money fucking that individual over and the government is complicit. If you think that only voting is going to bring about all the change that would be needed to stop that behavior, please look at the bigger picture.

A 5 gallon bucket can carry 5 gallons of water. It is also capable of carrying 5 gallons of bleach. Just because those two things are true it does not mean bleach == water. I didn't mention those idiots.

Just to be clear to anyone reading this, please vote. Please vote in your local elections. I just don't think voting alone is going to change violent behavior from big corps. History has shown us how fast companies can take power, and how they can rival or exceed the cruelty of Nazi Germany, look at many of the large trading companies back in the day. They did horrific, horrific shit. Look at all the examples of the terrible shit companies pull today. Companies have committed genocides, we just remember them differently than the Nazis because they lost the war and all their PR people. But companies have more PR people than ever.

Just like "backlash" for United beating that doctor didn't change shit, you can vote, but United will pay the politicians.

So yeah I stand by that comment, and its relevance to the comment thread something else is needed to change the course, but we still need to keep voting.

The real irony is that currently there are not even local elections to be had where I am. I'm case you are new at voting, it's not continuous. Saying the only action is voting is.... Well if you haven't gotten the point by now you are not going to.

I vote. I don't just vote every 4 years either, and that didn't just start with Trump. If you don't understand that more action is required than just voting at this point you need to look up from whatever you have your head stuck in. We are already in uncharted territory and while the rallies are not perfect, they are better than doing nothing and sitting on your hands until the next election.

"They helped make the bed. They can lie in it with the rest of us that didn’t."

Yes there are a lot of dumb fucks who seriously fucked up the election, and yeah they were wrong on so many levels. This isn't about being right, or having superior principals. This is actually about survival. The collapse and changes will be violent, and we are so fucking close to changes you can't even imagine. So grow up, stop complaining about how other people didn't do enough. It is just a childishly small thing to get hung up on.

DO SOMETHING. Protect yourself, your family, your friends and those that can't protect themselves.

It's not going to be legislation that takes us off of the current path.

Yeah, no. American oil might not be the biggest money these days, but if he nuked Oklahoma there would be some really pissed off oil tycoons.

On further thought, dump is absolutely dumb enough to be tricked into doing this by the rat selling it as some kind of short sale scheme and becoming the fall guy.

Nice call on the Rick Roll.

As general rule you should look at where a URL goes as well as what the link text.

A big ass link that is pointed towards tinyurl should have set off alarm bells for everyone who clicked the link.

That was slick @owl

I might print this comment on sticker paper for reasons.

You're right it is much better for them to give up.

Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Or the ok, or the mildly evil in this case.

What are you doing besides uselessly bitching and moaning about how others aren't doing enough. Grow up, shit will never be perfect in the real world and we are on the edge of a fascist regime coup. Even if Bernie doesn't do shit, getting that many people together is still a net positive compared to him voting on stuff or talking to people or introducing bills that will never pass just so morons think he is doing something better than rallies.

Getting large groups of people together repeatedly is the most important thing that can happen right now. Quit bitching and fucking do something.

This isn't one product, it's an entire division of a very very large company. It's profitable. The entire category of dishwashers as an appliance is not a lost leader.

Most of the muskrats "wealth" is in stock. Tesla is valued at more than every other car company in the world put together because a whole lot of dipshits think that a company can grow forever instead of looking at the actual financial data. There are going to be a whole lot of bagholders on that one. The point is if you think every company can operate like Tesla, I would encourage you to do a whole lot more reading. Tesla needs to be profitable at some point to stay alive anyway.

I'm pretty sure MisterOwl is a turf account, but there is a chance that they really are this dumb.
