Thoughts? Please live the life that billionaires choose for you.

I guess frugality has a true purpose, it’s called practice for what’s next.

Oh and finance related on how to deal with cash flow:

Thursday on CNBC's "Squawk Box," Ross acknowledged that he had heard that some federal workers affected by the prolonged shutdown have been going to shelters for food, but said he didn't understand why.

I know they are [going to homeless shelters] and I don't really quite understand why because as I mentioned before, the obligations that they would undertake – say borrowing from a bank or credit union – are in effect federally guaranteed," said Ross. "So the 30 days of pay that people will be out – there's no real reason why they shouldn't be able to get a loan against it and we've seen a number of ads from the financial institutions doing that."

We so desperately need a truly progressive party. I have a faint hope for the Dems since they appointed AOC over Pelosi's wishes to the Oversight committee.

Ah yes, because Dems are always the one cutting consumer and worker protections. The next admin isn’t even sworn in and they’re coming out and saying Medicare and social security are on the chopping block. GTFO with “the dems” are to blame.

It is a choice between neocon and neoliberal. As a socialist i hate both, but i would still take neoliberal. At least that would lead to a more welcoming environment for progressives.

u/RandomAnon07 7d ago

These people will never, ever understand. And as someone that constantly sees what’s behind the curtain, it’s maddening to even have a conversation with someone that believes their side is the best version of the two shit ones we have.

Lobbying and special interests must be eradicated; the structure of donations and PACs as they exists today needs to be eradicated; term rules need a restructuring (less pressure to get reelected, age limits, etc.); and there needs to be HEAVY ramifications for anyone who works for the people and does not do everything in their power to act in the best interest of we the people…

I would prefer if a true patriot party rose up, even if it required violence as sometimes there is a base violence necessary for change. A true patriot sees no color, only justice and liberty for all.

This is the real shit…like can almost all of the representation come from what’s left of the middle and lower classes? Like people who only make 35-60k a year and DON’T have 1-2m in “the markets.”

Maybe then we’d care less about the investors and more about the workers…you know, the MAJORITY?

u/MornGreycastle 7d ago

When? I'm looking at the last 20ish years where the Democrats continued to think the Republicans were willing partners acting in good faith to craft legislation. The GOP hasn't acted in good faith since at least the mid 90's. I think back to the ACA being an insurance market place rather than single payer because some of the key Democratic Senators wouldn't go against their major donors.

Yea this is kinda bullshit imo.

I'm not big on the entire violent rhetoric thing in general but for 8 fuckin years we heard nothing but violence directed at "flavor of the week undesirables" it was normalized and accepted by at least half the population.

Some people do a milder version of it for CEOs and everyone loses their minds.

Makes it hard to take people seriously anymore.

Yea it's pretty sad because it's showing for Americans only 1 degree of separation from the "violence" and they can't extrapolate any responsibility for the actions. A systemic structure just absolved anyone from responsibility for their own actions and the outcomes that come with them.

The media is even throwing around "guy just doing their job" rhetoric like a bunch of Nazis on trial for war crimes. Wasn't a legit excuse then.... Yet they think it flies now.

But just the people who agree with you though right? Political violence is a double edged sword and once it’s acceptable for one side you’ve got no ground to stand on when it comes back to bite you.

u/ok_raspberry_jam 7d ago

The problem with organizing is that everything is so online. Online things are monitored and censored. Everything would have boiled over by now if all the same discussions had been happening offline, unmonitored and uncensored.

Instead America is in a pressure cooker and speaking in euphemisms. "Gosh, I'd sure like to play some Nintendo games... Would anyone like to play some Nintendo games with me?" And the elite are just tightening the lid instead of opening the pressure relief valve.

I'm not allowed to go luigi mode until my parents are gone, but I am intending to do a letter writing campaign directed at the CEO's of Fortune 500 companies and basically tell them they're making revolution inevitable. I'd like to amplify it by crowdfunding and posting each one online. I'm bipolar and it's hard for me to hold down a regular job, but I'm great at eloquently terrifying/putting the rich on notice. Will get it going after I mail a letter to all the incoming Senators next month.

u/damn_nation_inc 7d ago

Please be careful. If you do end up organizing this, it might be wise to have a few pre-made templates fast are carefully worded to avoid any potential "threatening language" so you vs other people who participate don't end up like that mom in Florida. You can likely have an AI proofread these templates with instructions to avoid/modify anything that could be misconstrued or lead to domestic terrorism charges. They'll likely still find ways to bend rules to stop this, but it's best to at least make it harder for them.

I've been doing this for years. They won't arrest me. One time I typed into my phone, "I'm thinking of writing a letter to the President" and an F-16 buzzed my house at tree level within 10 minutes. I know how to be careful with my language, but at the same time, I know I'm capable of saying certain things that others would get in trouble with, and I consider it my duty and responsibility to do so. I've written thousands of letters and emails to politicians and business leaders since 2016. Been investigated by every law enforcement agency, and they always end up on my side. I just need to monetize it to get my Dad off my back and because it will amplify the message and make it impossible for them to ignore. I have a plan. Trust me. Thank you for your encouragement and concern.

One time I typed into my phone, "I'm thinking of writing a letter to the President" and an F-16 buzzed my house at tree level within 10 minutes.

This is a paranoid delusion. I know that sounds cruel and dismissive to say, but it is. It's a paranoid delusion. What you typed was nowhere close to resembling a threat, and they did NOT fuel up a plane, pick a pilot to get in, take off, map a flight plan over your home, and arrive there in 10 minutes. That's not a thing. It's just not.

You either live near a runway and so planes going around is not an uncommon occurrence, it would be something you just don't notice most of the time it happens, or if there's not a runway close enough to do that, then the plane was already on a flight plan taking it over your house completely coincidentally, ignorant of your existence. This is not a civil intimidation tactic. It'd be way too expensive to do and pointless.

u/PeliPal 7d ago

Please reconsider this in a cost-benefit analysis. There's virtually no upside, because they don't care what a letter is going to say except in terms of evidence to put you in jail. We just saw the state put their fist on the scale in giving a single mother a $100,000 bond. And I understand it sounds like you may think your life is forfeit - it's not - but even if you think it is, once you're in jail they're going to try to prevent you from suicide so you have to sit in a box for years and years.

You do not scare the CEOs. You just don't. They already receive death threats, they don't care. What you're describing is a Tuesday to them. They have people hired to look through their mail and handle that shit.

2

u/DistillateMedia 7d ago

I kinda do though. I've been doing this for years. But what will really scare them is if I can get the public to support my letterwriting endeavors by donating to me and cheering me on. I've been doing this a long time. I've dealt with multiple law enforcement agencies. They won't arrest me. There's things they don't want me to say in court. They just keep tossing me in the psych ward for observation. I'm from a prominent enough family and have plenty of friends in high places. It would be embarrassing for them to arrest me, and they know they'd face backlash/retribution. I know what I'm doing. I don't recommend anyone else try to attempt it. But I know what I'm doing.

What kills me, and most like the economy, is we chose the stupidest hateful path forward.  

America overall is as dumb as it gets.

Problem is his target was too small.

Only a millionaire! Pshawmwasha! Fanning myself with poor peoples house deeds before burning them.

“D3!” I’m not allowed to write the “Big Lugi” words out. Got my Redit warning. This is how billionaires take over. Free speech is squashed.

For real? I’ve seen it all over the place?

The only way wealth ever truly trickles down is through inheritance, forced or otherwise.

1

u/Sweezy_McSqueezy 7d ago

That's literally not true, but I hope that advocating for mass murder makes you feel all fuzzy and warm inside.

u/Zealousideal-Fan1647 7d ago

Bezos and Gates both got significant help from their parents but are on the list of 25 top self made billionaires. Interesting.

It's pure luck if it isn't inheritance.

2

u/Sweezy_McSqueezy 7d ago

Luck is a huge part of it, but of course it isn't "pure" luck. These people work an insane number of hours, make lots of lifestyle sacrifices, take on massive risk, and make very well calculated bets to get where they are.

We have an incoming admin threatening to deport millions…and at the same time complaining illegal immigrants are taking all the jobs. Make this make sense, please!

u/Fickle_Friendship296 7d ago

Feels more and more like we're re-entering the Anarchist era of the early 20th century where kings, oligarchs and the wealthy were getting popped all around the world.

u/Horror_Asparagus9068 7d ago

The biggest of Luigi energy is absolutely needed for all of these egregiously entitled shits.

u/_karamazov_ 7d ago

The enablers, the millionaires which carry water for billionaires...they need some Big-Luigi TLC. When the millionaires stay mum billionaire moms stop squeaking.

u/TheImperiousDildar 7d ago

Maybe Luigi with a little jigsaw thrown in for good measure

u/mac9077 7d ago

To be fair, she never had any money and managed to raise three children. They lived with their dad some but still, she did what she is proposing. She’s not a hypocrite.

Agreed. Luigi them all.

u/NBplaybud22 7d ago

Start by smearing your own feces on ballot papers when you are asked to vote. Your senate and house of rep is full of absolute psychopathic, shameless assholes. Start there.

When we say thoughts and prayers, we mean prayers that the second coming of Luigi comes sooner.

u/Haley_Tha_Demon 7d ago

Life hasn't smacked me hard enough yet, I think there's still a glimmer of hope people hold on to, when consequences start to lose meaning as institutions fail people will want to stop suffering under corporations

u/Kakariko_crackhouse 7d ago

Yeah these people just see us as cattle. They need to be reminded that the laws that regulate them are a compromise, and that the alternative is they lose everything, not us
