Yep
Hedge funds have lost somewhere between 10 and 15 billion now
They're trying to push for market reforms to stop the 'poor people' from buying stocks now to prevent this from happening again

All this because they wanted to gamble on Gamestop stocks and their bet went exceptionally poor

Don't worry too much about that debt It's owed to mostly American people anyway so it's not like China owns the place if you go too far into debt And it's a structural issue anyway, a single pipeline won't change that. Though it will fuck over the people who were counting on getting a job in the are...

I think the US hasn't had a good president in at least 40 years but that's because I haven't looked further than 40 years back
Just change the voting system already and maybe get someone good out of that

XSI

He did more than just three things, but on those three then Aid is only very rarely given 'no-strings-attached'. Most foreign aid comes with a stipulation to buy from the country providing aid using that money. That's not just the US aid, but also how French, German and British aid works. Giving mor...

I'm still convinced Biden is just a puppet being told how to act and what to say
Not that it matters, before all this he seemed to have mostly the same opinions as the usual big business+banking groups that are pulling the strings anyway

XSI

It's okay, this will convince them all to drop Trump
Something way more important has banned them for supporting republicans

They're no longer allowed in brony conventions if they support Trump

XSI

I'm not sure why they want to install Trump as dictator. What specifically does he do for them? From what I heard, the positive thing they mention about him is mostly because he does economy pretty well Other than that it's mostly "So the other side doesn't fuck up everything and ruin our live...

Risotto is pretty great but most people don't know how to even make it
It's not even that hard

Also politics

imagine being stupid enough to breach the capitol building and not even wear a mask to hide your identity. own the libs by getting sentenced to a federal prison I'd like to just draw some more attention to this post And also to the fact that people have been saying "Please wear masks" for...

Eye masks actually do work
Worth getting those

Also knew this thread would be a trainwreck today but I expected it to be more amusing

XSI

Old style factory worker communism was for people who did actual work
"To each according to his ability, to each according to his need"
Now it's just university students who have a lot of needs and no ability

It's fucked
Just like last year

Also happy new year

I've been told unitystation is a thing these days, and fairly good. Just without the years of random content ye olde ss13 has

Also yeah, canada. I guess they have problems but selling parts of their land to Japan is not going to fix any of them

That was perfect
I applaud Grazyn for what is probably the best post in this thread and possibly one of the best posts on this forum in 2020

XSI

Since this is the politics thread, enjoy https://t.co/84HlC1NGtR At the very least, read the preliminary conclusions It essentially confirms that the Dominion software facilitates vote fraud. That election laws have been broken consistently, and that logs that could prove tampering have been intenti...

XSI

This all reminds me of the chants of "Lock her up" about 4 years ago for Hillary
If she didn't go to jail despite the shitloads of evidence she was involved in criminal shit, then you can be sure Trump isn't either

XSI

Easy solution for all big companies- Move servers to a place that doesn't hold you responsible and make sure you've paid your legal team
Solution for anyone smaller? Hope a new law comes by that saves your ass before you get sued

XSI

Internet laws need to be redone entirely pretty much everywhere, really. Currently it's all made by old people who don't understand the internet and it's really showing with how much bullshit can be gotten away with Of course if they make new laws or redo the old and just make it worse, then we're f...

If they do, they'll probably lie about it

That injury is too early to make Biden retire though. They should have waited a few months so it can seem natural "They"? You think someone attacked him? Who? Why? And what do you mean "seem natural"? It's called a shitpost, based off the cynical joke that Biden is an old man an...

What made you think Trump was a nice person?
Fits him perfectly well, I'd say

Tank main Not warrior though, so general advice- Use your damage-skills essentially as soon as they get off cooldown Use mitigation when pulling big in dungeons or to stop tankbusters from making your healer cry in raids.

Nobody trusts a journalist anymore these days
For good reason

Also apparently there's been a bunch more recounts and stuff. At this point I doubt it's going to be actual votes that determine who gets to sit in the white house though

I haven't played this in a few months so now I suck

Entertaining but I feel like there's better, even more entertaining things for the crew to call out. Shock value only gets you so far WGW would have been amazing Maybe something related to the usual punching bags online?

If you're expecting 'democratic' from the US you're in for a lot of surprises both in the future and if you check the history books That said the biggest things I've heard now is investigations into voting machines and counting software that re-assigned Trump votes to Biden in multiple key states. T...

XSI

I've not bothered reading that, no. There's nothing entertaining in it for me and it doesn't actually tell anything truly new. From that picture you've posted, it tells me that they've not actually done anything out of the ordinary. 4chan did worse than that several times just because they thought i...

XSI

Wasn't the russian interference thing about hacked e-mails and not literally rigging votes? Yes. The thing there was that Russia interfered by telling people to look up what Hillary did or something. Either way, not something that actually mattered or would sway anyone's vote. It was common knowled...

Tell us who you voted for maybe you feel comfortable saying that >Implying I'm even american I'm across the atlantic and I give no shits about this outside of the shitposting. Aside from that I am just very cynical and when I see bullshit I will call it out. There has 100% been fraud in the electio...

XSI

Why would I bother responding to people who have already decided to both take this all 100% serious and not to accept anything I will say anyway?
I'm just in this for the shitposting

You always seemed unhinged but you seem to have problems

Didn't Antifa/some BLM leaders already say they were ready to 'punish' america for voting 'wrong' if Trump won again? Their plan was never to force Trump out, the plan was to make sure everyone who supported him gets attacked for it. (Though they've done a shit job of it the last few months and most...

XSI

Some illegal action has already been confirmed in several places (Big surprise, right?)
The only real question is whether it was enough to change the election results, and whether the courts take action because of it

This election is going to take months

XSI

Civil war doesn't start until the courts say so I haven't checked to see who won yet and I don't really care, but there's enough bullshit going on that a lot of results are going to court to dispute everything Civil war comes after the courts agree/don't agree that fraud happened. Doesn't really mat...

Media before 2000 was pretty similar
They just tried to hide it a bit more and people let them get away with more too. There was a lot more trust in the media that has been completely shattered in the last few years

XSI

This thread is still exactly as I expected it to be
US politics is toxic and anyone unironically supporting any of it is toxic too

Just a few more days and we can go back to the usual schedule of political riots rather than advanced riots and fraud
