TikTok is not being banned. It is being required to divest itself from China. It refuses to do that for some reason, which will result in its ban.

Leaving room for doubt that other states sponsor terrorism???

Almost? What are your exceptions?

We can push the work off to some new developing nation. This might be the natural cycle of developed nations but idk. I don’t know shit, nor have I ever claimed to.

As china’s industrial sector matures and their workforce becomes more specialized (thus higher payed) once cheap goods become more expensive. Now we are in a place where cheap goods are expensive to the point where we notice. We can either come to terms with this fact of life or

People think an economy is good when they can get common goods for a low price. At the end of WWII housing was cheap in the US because a ton of people had died. Additionally the Chinese were rapidly industrializing which made a ton of goods super cheap to import.

I think it’s obvious that trump won the election because people feel (or were made to feel) that grocery prices are too high. In Japan like America, people are buying goods at volumes completely unheard of. Clearly there is an emotional and financial disconnect. I have an idea what it might be…

Isn’t protectionism a part of socialism/populism to some extent? I don’t think the socialists’ tendency to jump on “their” side comes from the same place (race) at the very least.

“Maybe Elon will reinstate my ‘verification’ if I complain about competing platforms” These people are operating at toddler tantrum levels of thought.

Remember, polls are made by the devil to deceive you.

That’s a pretty close vote though. I think that as she gains more seniority and experience she will become apart of the party leadership. I don’t have numbers but I bet that vote would have been WAY different a few years ago.

Conservatives might have to finally deal with the consequences of their actions. Tariffs are going to affect all of us after all.
comment in response to post
I don’t think “person of the year” has an inherently positive connotation. I think it’s just a mark of significance. And trump has had - and will have - an incredibly significant impact on the entire world.
comment in response to post
Suddenly all conservatives will act like this is yet another thing that he ran on but somehow everybody knew he didn’t actually mean. Like the inverse of the project 2025 which wasn’t real during the campaign but will be real when he’s in office.

At least it wasn’t like the quadruple red herring like they did with EGOT a few days ago.

A few of them are on the Supreme Court lmao

Would you tell your child to say thank you to a pencil after it “helped” them write an essay? Good parenting is actually socializing a child with other people and teaching them social skills imo. Personifying AI has lead to a lot of people being weird about the tech.

It “…[does] not target speech based upon its communicative content.” In other words, the government is ambivalent towards what is on the platform. Which is why the sale of the company is allowed even if it changes nothing else about the platform. Just go read the bill and the ruling for the appeal.
comment in response to post
I don’t know if this article is purposely playing along with the shell game that TikTok set up but it sure feels like it. The ban is a product of being owned by a foreign adversary which poses a national security risk. The court conceded that it involves speech BUT…
comment in response to post
H.R. 7521 does not stipulate that applications may be controlled by a foreign adversary if they pinky promise to self-regulate.

He has to know it’s already decided by the electoral college, right? Does he think he did all those rallies in PA because that’s where the most people live????

The combination of Red Bull and soylent everyday WILL give him kidney stones.

Good or bad, I definitely believed/hoped that Joe was above that.

Oops, that’s what I meant
comment in response to post
That’s true for some of them but not all. I think there’s more types of conservatives than the MAGA die-hards.
comment in response to post
I think most voters are misinformed. If you need your own space away from them, that’s fine but I would say that encouraging this anti-social behavior is bad for the conservative. They can’t change their mind if they don’t have access to the info.

In conclusion, the name of this account will likely have nothing to do with its content unless accountability becomes incentivized somehow (unlikely). For now, this is just an account for politics and memes but mostly politics. (5/5)
comment in response to post
The same is true of figures like Elon and Russel brand who had credible sexual misconduct allegations and rather than owning what they did, pivoted to be outspoken trump supporters. It’s perfectly logical. Why would you admit to bad behavior when the right wing will accept you no matter what? (4/5)
comment in response to post
The death of the public apology may have been inevitable but I think it was accelerated by the meteoric rise of crypto scams and trump-era conservatism. Public figures likely saw (if not participated in) crypto scams and the complete lack of public or legal accountability and learned. (3/5)
comment in response to post
I don’t know what caused it but people stopped apologizing for the most part. My theory is that public figures finally got wise to the fact that admitting fault for any reason is almost never going to pan out for them. Additionally it exposes their audience to info they might not have (2/5)
