Americans aren’t smart enough to not eat the toy inside.

Good read, well worth your time to go through it, if only to roll your eyes at the sycophancy on display.

It isn’t. Not even close. This says $12 https://www.epi.org/blog/the-value-of-the-federal-minimum-wage-is-at-its-lowest-point-in-66-years/

Go be mad about real problems.

Coming in here with a “solution” that requires the worldwide eradication of capitalism, authoritarianism, and imperialism and then tells me I’m the one unaware of real problems. r/im14andthisisdeep-ass conversation.

I’m not upset by the sentiment, I’m upset by the flippant naivete. Go tell Ukrainians or Gazans about your solution for world peace and count down the seconds till you get punched in the face.

Nah war is cringe.

Wow I’m literally shaking right now. I just showed your comment to Putin and he immediately ordered all Russian troops out of Ukraine. Your Nobel Peace Prize invitation should arrive momentarily.

I think the idea would be, if the US invades Canada, to make us more like Afghanistan than Switzerland. Or perhaps Finland is a better comparison, being somewhere in the middle.

I think the guy in the pith helmet went to the wrong event – Elon’s office is in another part of town.

I get the sentiment, but the term “colonial” is a bit condescending after 300+ years. It’s like calling Turks or Magyars “nomads”.

Says who? They can still be a user of it.

Yeah, I`m all for roasting Plex but nothing about that review is inappropriate or prima facie untruthful.

Well done, Carney. Starmer deserves to be called out for slobbering Trump’s little orange mushroom so relentlessly. It’s an embarrassment.

Wow, I can’t believe partners at BigLaw would be so out of touch.

What’s this from again? The Mummy? Love this scene.

without using it in the way recently popularized by US fascists.

It was a campaign slogan for the Canadian Conservative Party too, as well as used heavily by Conservatives in my province during the last election. “Common sense” has always been a fig leaf for somebody wanting to believe they hold a majority view when that is not supported by polls.

I’d add to that list anybody who uses the term “common sense”.
