Why Americans feel gloomy about the economy despite falling inflation and low unemployment
Why Americans feel gloomy about the economy despite falling inflation and low unemployment
Inflation has reached its lowest point in 2 1/2 years. The unemployment rate has stayed below 4% for the longest stretch since the 1960s.
You're viewing part of a thread.
Instead of saying a place like Indiana is a shithole, you should say it’s just not good enough for you.
No. Right-wing dominant places which are enemies to queer people and women are shitholes. In their entirety. Indiana is not good enough for anyone who is non-Christian, queer, a woman or an ally to them.
But sure, you want to be a Trump voter and its paradise. I'd say that makes it a shithole.
Calling a fascist state full of idiot Republican bigots a shithole isn't entitlement, it's accuracy.
I'm glad you at least came clean about your sentiments on the matter.
Now we can see you don't speak for everyone, only people with your specific issue.
When I think 'shithole' I imagine places like favelas in Brazil or the black part of Johannesburg. Hopefully you can see how Indiana is significantly different than those places, where unfortunately many people are forced to live while we pass a bunch of money around at the top.
I'm sure you also think Florida is a shithole, and lots of tribalists will agree with you. I, personally, do not. Most places in Florida are great to live. Some places in California are awful to live. I don't think the politics of any state are horrendous enough to call them 'shitholes.' I'm looking at things from a global perspective, though. Because we live in a global society and it's not fair that people in Indiana get more before those in Somalia.
But that's just me.
By "tribalists," you mean people who are against fascism and bigotry and oppression. Yes. I guess we know where you stand on that with your "global perspective."
You're showing your reddit-brain again.
Funnily enough, further proving my point about 'tribalists.' We're either with you or against you, lol. There is no independence.
Glad we could have this talk.
Ah, being anti-fascist is being "Reddit-brained." Gotcha.
Yes. When it comes to fascism, you are either anti-fascist or you support fascism. There's no middle ground. And you have made it clear you are not anti-fascist.
Ah, being anti-fascist is being “Reddit-brained.” Gotcha.
No, saying "you really mean this" when saying something that is not what they really mean is being reddit-brained.
Hilarious how you just did it twice in a row, lol. And continued to support my point about tribalists.
Man, I'm glad I'm not with you. There is no independence in your world.
That said, I am anti-fascist. Florida is not a fascist state, though. Tribalists will disagree with me on that, but that's what makes them tribalists. Just like how they think it's a 'shithole.'
That said, I am anti-fascist. Florida is not a fascist state, though.
Always interesting to see someone lie and then show that they're lying immediately afterward.
Yeah, I knew you'd call that out.
That's how predictable your tribal behavior is.
This is funny, though. With each reply we gain more insight into how warped your worldview is due to your loyalty to your tribe.
I know you won't read this, but I'll just leave it here for everyone else so they can see why your claim of being an anti-fascist is a lie.
