I wonder why it doesn't already exist...
comment in response to post
I haven't seen. Where can I see it?

What is "deconstructionism?"
comment in response to post
I respect your willingness to platform fascists.

Stop whining

It is a consumption tax. Hopefully Trump can replace income tax with consumption taxes, starting with tariffs on hostile foreign governments like China.
comment in response to post
He has turned the world against China. What a brilliant move.
comment in response to post
Nobody is trolling you. You're just triggered. China is run by communists. Trump's business acumen is top tier.
comment in response to post
I also want this. What happened to the whole "President Musk" narrative. Now Trump is a "king." It just seems like the left throws narratives at the wall to see what sticks.
comment in response to post
lol. Either trump maintains tariffs perpetually, or else he "folded." Great thinking.
comment in response to post
We all need to pay our fair share.
comment in response to post
Yeah we do. The communists need to be punished into submission. Quit being so passive.
comment in response to post
Great. Then it doesn't hurt them. Works for US.
comment in response to post
They are wrong to call them "reciprocal" tariffs. They are proportional tariffs. 0% tariffs on both sides would also be proportional. Let's hope these other governments are willing to eliminate their tariffs on us.
comment in response to post
Right. So all of these other countries are charging their importers. They must be dumb.
comment in response to post
Of which claim would you like for me to give you evidence?
comment in response to post
Inflation is a _general_ increase in prices and decreased value of money. Neither of those things are being illustrated with this example.
comment in response to post
Yeah. That doesn't explain how it would cause inflation. Inflation would require that people are forced to buy that product from China - and that isn't the case.
comment in response to post
You should worry about your own politics. Germany has put more people in jail for speech than Russia has in the last 5 years. And if tariffs are so bad then you let the EU know, it imposes plenty.
comment in response to post
Can you explain how it would?
comment in response to post
Both Canada and the EU have tariffs that impact Tesla.
comment in response to post
Why do so many other countries have tariffs on us? Are they all stupid?
comment in response to post
Catastrophizing is a symptom of depression.
comment in response to post
Ok. So your data has been inaccurate. I see.
comment in response to post
So your data has been inaccurate?
comment in response to post
It is deeply unfair for the American middle class to be baring the burden of unfair tariffs from other countries. What tariffs has Russia and Belarus placed on us?
comment in response to post
Why wasn't it considered a trade war when these other countries had tariffs on us that we didn't have on them?

So it's only 0.52% higher than when Biden was in office? Am I understanding that correctly?
comment in response to post
Shocked by the popularity of DOGE

Do you support Israel in it's fight against the terrorism of it's people?
comment in response to post
This feels so good. Finally somebody addressing the fraud, waste and abuse in the government. Great job Musk! The people support you!
comment in response to post
They need Pierre Poilievre

So...you're activists not journalists.

Issuing this challenge on bluesky? lol - bold.
comment in response to post
You think this means prices will magically drop the day that he is going into office, and not that he will begin working on dropping prices the day that he gets into office?
comment in response to post
huh
comment in response to post
They were?
comment in response to post
I'm really looking forward to seeing how this account handles things when the prices drop. Will it just go silent?
comment in response to post
It wouldn't be relevant without that assumption.
comment in response to post
This appears to just be narrative building. If my thoughts are not coherent, then you have no reason to respond or be concerned.

Motte: our institutions are attempting to indoctrinate our children and they're being transparent about it. Bailey: ...???
comment in response to post
It is when the assumption is that I'm somehow obligated to support it.

Oh this is the mind reading again. "I know your TRUE motivations."
