You're trying really hard to be objectively correct about this silliness. No wonder there's a stigma about coffee snobs.

The political party founded on ignoring things for personal bias would just ignore another thing.

I'm not trying to attack you, but this would be like believing that once the right were informed that not all immigrants are murdering rapists then all of MAGA would be just so gosh darned embarrassed.

No, they'd yell "fake news" and send another innocent person to die in a foreign prison.

Column 2 status would absolutely make sense if we weren't talking about an administration that slapped tariffs on penguins.

Russia still has billions in trade with the US, far more than any of the other three in column 2 and far more than the vast majority of trade partners assigned tariffs. The tariffs were assigned with a simple trade deficit calculation that Russia was spared. If anything, that this administration is so eager to "get even" that it slaps tariffs on penguins while missing one of its largest trade deficits says more about their lack of attention to detail than anything else.

Google search feels like it has stopped being the magic it was. Now whenever I search for something I might not find it underneath all the stuff on sale. For the first time in I don't know how many years I've been finding myself using something else like Duck Duck Go.

Trump followed a consistent, rigid math: Whatever the trade deficit, then that's the tariff applied... except for Russia. Russia is #23 on our list of trade partners. Following the math they should have a hefty tariff applied, but they don't. It's the only exception.

Fun fact: When an animal rolls into a ball to defend itself it is called "conglobation."

Where did you hear this? There's so little information on archers through history.

Only two genders: male and political.

There’s no appreciable difference between the ads, the propaganda, the creators honest content and the creators paid content.

Well said.

Most decent manufacturers have their own website and fast shipping. I had to leave Amazon just for the fake and damaged merchandise alone.

Bigots consolidating power by using national pride to make minorities, immigrants, and the educated into enemies to be rallied against, allying with corporate interests who realize the consolidated powers can be used to maximally exploit the working class. A machine that needs to be constantly fed by fear of "the other" until it inevitably eats itself. Very much tied to a false notion of simple answers to complex problems, unhealthy national pride, an obsession with displays of strength, and an unwavering victim complex.

You know, us Americans.

As an American, we are all going to suffer and the earlier the better. Time and time again we see that the only way Trump supporters change is if they are personally affected. Thus we all need to pay in order to see change.
