Honestly this meme is way understating the sinisterness

• Election interference for money machine
• Whole internet is ads company
• Dopamine addiction for all children
• Superpowers for law enforcement

This has been 100% my experience with my Brother printer

Don’t fuck with the paws

It’s fun sometimes to ask them what they think of NATO, or Alexei Navalny or democracy demonstrations in Hong Kong or etc.

You would think that they would say “Oh yeah I was talking about Claudia De la Cruz because I like her policies / I’m upset about Biden approving Alaskan fossil fuel leases / whatever United States thing we were talking about, but OF COURSE them killing Navalny was a horrifying human rights abuse yes.” And yet, the few times I’ve tried it, that has never happened - it’s always either “well you know he had ties to X Y Z white nationalists” or else silence.

I don’t think it pays very well

Hey, neat! It's a couple of talking points.

When people hold up dollar amounts like Biden is doing a lot, that number is inflated by fraudulent interest

"They are lying to you about numbers, don't pay attention to the numbers! Just in general; no numbers. Pay attention to my vague, inflated, ever-shifting claims, instead."

Biden is just paying with our tax money.

"This politician is spending our money!" (mostly this one is emotional impact -- it is true that practically everything the government does is spending people's tax dollars, but suggesting that some specific thing is them spending your money is alarming to people on a survival level and triggers this kind of hatred for the situation overall)

But he's literally doing the bare minimum

"Okay, he is making progress, but it doesn't count!"

drastically overpaying meaning for the same dollar amount, more people should be getting loan forgiveness.

Literally no idea what you are talking about here. I think you messed up by making it too specific, so it's factually untrue -- you gotta keep it within the realm of technically true but wildly misleading things ("paying with our tax money").

Are you suggesting that when Biden forgives $10k of student loan debt, the borrower is receiving less than $10k worth of forgiveness? How would that even work? I think you got too excited at the keyboard and let your typing-froth get too close to factual reality and kind of exposed the fact that it's all made up bad faith bullshit.

It sounds great if you only read headlines tho...

"I'm the well informed one! If you disagree with me you are foolish / naive / victim of propaganda / etc!"

Making excuses for Biden always just ends up arguing against moderate politicians like Biden. It's their fault we're in this shitty situation to begin with

Bringing factual reality = "making excuses for Biden"

General bad faith bitterness and blaming. It's actually pretty remarkable how effective this is at turning "Biden tried to forgive $500B in student loans and has been fighting against efforts to stop him and still has succeeded in forgiving $167B and is still trying to do more" into "it's his fault student loans even exist in the first place! Fuck him for pretending to care with his massive student loan forgiveness program positively impacting millions of people!"

Overall I rate this like a 4/10. You hit a bunch of general points that can produce an emotional impact and could literally be applied to anything, and you hit honestly a pretty good rhythm of nonstop firehosing claims wrapped up in a way that they could produce an impact. You got too factual, though; even one claim that is objective and testable and 100% false (the thing about "drastically overpaying" which doesn't even make sense as applied to student loan forgiveness), can sort of snap people back into the realization that you're just jabbering anything you can come up with to attack Biden with no connection to reality.

Almost as if there’s a coordinated effort up to and including this headline

Start?

He forgave a little over $150 billion so far

I'd go a step further than that. It's not all bullshit.

If right at the moment that young men are starting to figure out, hey it's important to make some money, it's important not to be a coward, I think I'm gonna start working out and waking up early and keeping my house clean, hey I think at least some of these people I see who are downtrodden by life are at least partially responsible for their own situation and problems and I don't wanna be that way... if right at that exact moment all the left has to offer them is getting in their face and saying NO NO NO, FUCK YOU THAT'S ALL WRONG TRANS RIGHTS VEGAN CAT FOOD FUCK YOU ARARGBGLGLLGLGL then they're not gonna wanna join with the left. The left is going to seem stupid and crazy to them, and for a certain segment of the left, they'll have a point about that.

Trump like all fascism is a malicious lie which will bring them only misery. But just being conservative (like authentic conservatism) in your viewpoint isn't automatically wrong or "the enemy."

“glitches”

Hi! I feel like we just talked about this - there are quite a lot of Democrats who are actually currently pushing, with some level of success, for reforming the voting system away from the duopoly-favoring FPTP system.

It doesn’t make a lot of sense either for you or for some Democrat to support introducing 3rd parties in a big way into the existing FPTP system, splitting the vote and leading to a Republican win. It makes perfect sense to support reforming the system so that 3rd parties can gain traction without being spoiler candidates.

I wonder why you are fighting for that first thing and not that second thing. Seems like fighting for that second thing would make more sense, yes? Definitely more sense than somehow criticizing the Democrats for not wanting the first thing.

Since your goal is obviously good leftwards progress and victory for left wing causes, and all

Almost all nuclear weapons require quite a bit of expertise to maintain over time. If they got sold off 30 years ago, chances are 99% that they’re mostly good for lighting off as a dirty bomb and not much else at this point.
