That's 0,0058 billions.
Barely over half percent of a billion.
With 5.8 million you're richer than 99% of Americans, and it takes 172 times that to reach a billion.
Just to put it in perspective how stupidly rich a billionaire is, and how cruel it is that they exploit everyone else to make that pointlessly huge pile of money even more pointlessly huge.
Lol the trump x Haley comparison is irrelevant
First because she never really had a chance to win the primaries against the maga cult
And second because even if she did, being part of the republican party these days is more than enough reason to assume she's a fascist asshole. Does it matter if she's a slightly less bad fascist asshole? (And if you wanna reduce it to "everyone I don't like is all the same" that's fine with me)
Pointing out that the Democrats are bad is not the same as saying 'both sides are the same'. Sure, Biden is infinitely better than the alternative, but it would be really nice to have some actually good options instead of just lesser evil
And it's driving our world ~~economy~~ into the ground.
There's a million valid reasons to criticize Israel without any antisemitism... but if you make a generic "jews bad" comment and specifically mention a time period that goes before ww2 it gets pretty sus
TLDR: privacy law won't pass because it would limit the government's right to buy "commercially available data" on anyone without a warrant
This includes location data collected from cell phones that are capable in many cases of tracking people’s physical whereabouts almost constantly. The data is purportedly gathered for advertising purposes...
A government that actually cares about privacy wouldn't be debating 'should we be able to buy that data', it would be asking the real question 'why the fuck is it legal to collect and sell that data?'
Even if we pretend that data will only ever be used for ads, it's still not fucking OK for advertisers to stalk everyone everywhere 24/7 (and every use other than ad stuff is probably worse)
A more educated populace benefits everyone.
Except Republicans. They "love the poorly educated"
Remember a few years ago when a teenager took an interstate trip to play cop and threaten black people with a gun?
And then he ended up killing some people and cried a lot in the trial ("I'm the victim" tears, not "I regret murdering those guys" tears)
And he became a conservative star.
Satire doesn't stand a chance against reality
The movies did a great job at presenting thanos as an extremist that sincerely wants the greater good by questionable means, but it falls apart because his grand plan is just so stupid. The only way to reconcile the sympathetic character with the dumb plan is to point out he's "THANOS THE MAD TITAN", not "THANOS THE TITAN THAT FULLY CONSIDERS THE CONSEQUENCES OF HIS ACTIONS"
Would have been much better if they just kept his original motivation from the comics: Death is a hot lady and horny thanos does the snap as a gift to her

This is just right wingers complaining that calling out their lies is 'censorship'
