My favorite example is out in Arizona (forgive me I can’t remember the name of the town). They moved there because the land was cheap but wanted to contribute NOTHING to the local township while still being a burden on their resources. Then got BIG MAD when the town had a water shortage and decided to prioritize their residents so they cut off water to the libertarians forcing them to have to ship in water from elsewhere if they wanted to keep living there and suddenly that “cheap land” became very expensive to maintain.

4·1 day agoThey saw it coming. This is a legal bank heist. The ultra rich rob the banks then will cry poverty (to big to fail) and demand to be rescued only rob the banks again another day. This isn’t the first time they’ve pulled this scheme, it won’t be the last. As long as it keeps working they’ll keep doing it.
Is that a century egg? I’d eat that. Been wanting to try one actually. I hear they’re tasty af.
We tend to filter things through our personal experiences. I kind of envy the people who were purely confused or whose first thought was astrology girlfriend.
Everything in this photo hurts to look at.

2·4 days agoThey are a beard. So the zionists can say “look see! We aren’t racist/apartheidist/genocidal we let the arabs vote/live here.”
(Notice that “let” is doing a lot of heavy lifting. Every time I hear someone say that or something similar I cringe.)
Scratch even a little below the surface and it becomes super obvious. This election is a perfect example, the “arab citizens” didn’t vote the way the zionists wanted and there have been some just awful quotes and threats lobbed around.
This is why they don’t want people reading. Literacy will have you picking apart common narratives and questioning interpretations of the bullshit those in power have spoon fed you your entire life.


Years ago - back when reddit was supposedly “good” in the days before Trump I got banned from AITAH for swearing because curse words are “violence.” Reddit has always been ridiculous trash.
