like the conservatives on WELFARE. or ms leavitt marries someone more twice her senior and supporting her. and then theres womans dating in red states, they were shocked that so many of them are living at home still with thier parents.
Something about stepping on your own group to get ahead, to be one of the boys, feels disgusting.
I'm in my forties making nearly 200k and shit is too expensive
Ive never in my life made more than 50k/yr and i have a good union job. I would probably literally kill for 200k/yr
I have a "real job" making almost $100k/year and things are still expensive. Should I also be sent to Cuba or Iran for stating the obvious?
Well have you considered getting a real job where you put on make up and then sit in a room full of cameras while you just lie for an hour or two a day to a camera? Now that's a real American job.
"yes", fascists, unironically, probably.
Define 'real job', Jesse. Does that include sitting on you arse in front of a camera spewing lies to idiots?
Right? I would consider reporting, i.e putting a bit of yourself and putting your real opinions/demeanour into the role, to be a real job - but what these people do is just act as mouthpieces for the regime. Everything from their appearance too, to what they say, to how they say it (above tweet is a great example) is suppose to re-inforce the beliefs of our regime. Regime is the right word, btw - it simply means organised power.
Yeah. Watters isn't a reporter. He's a glove puppet, and an unconvincing one at that. Same goes for Leavitt.
hes a replacement for tucker carlson. his usual shtick was acting as a pundit against "degenerate libs" segment.
He's an even dumber Tucker Carlson, if that's even possible. So, a perfect Fox pundit.
Bro reads lies from a teleprompter and calls it a real job. Is it comodity fetishism yet when you equate income with reality?
Said the same week as RFK once again floats the idea of institutionalizing the disabled.
These are not off-the-cuff comments. Somewhere behind the veneer of stupidity, more and more members of the current government are pushing the need to imprison or conscript larger and larger swathes of the US population.
Legal slavery
They can’t afford food because they were born with silver spoons in their mouths. K.
It doesn't have to make sense, it just has to make right wing boomers tut with disapproval as their biases are confirmed.
Yeah Gen Z just needs to pull themselves up by the bootstraps and find a 65 year old billionaire to marry
like there is jobs everywhere and everyone is hiring....
but basically these conservatives are just assholes
as if those jobs are truley hiring or just posting the listing there, or the fact the jobs are designed to take advantage of people.
like there is jobs everywhere and everyone is hiring…
Absolutely. And you can pay for a bachelor's degree working a minimum wage job in the summers and you can buy a house and support a wife and kids with an entry-level job.
Or, wait, was that 80 years ago?
Something something avocado toast
I saw avocado toast on a menu for $17 the other day! Wtf! Who pays that?!
I just was at a hotel and the horrible 'Continental' breakfast with powdered eggs was 40 fucking dollars. It was included with my stay, but the food was too disgusting to eat. I don't know why you would pay for it.
I think hotels like that are just banking on enough business travelers coming through who can expense any food to their company.
I was about to correct you, but no, it really has been 80 years. Time is cruel.
I mean, it wasn't that long ago the the Simpsons represented the bottom of the middle class--a high-school educated father with a stable job (with a dental plan) and a home, two cars, two kids, and a SAH wife.
Just a few years earlier Billy Joel was positively bitching "who needs a house out in Hackensack? Is that all you get for your money?" Like, yeah, that sounds pretty good relative to paying 60% of your income in rent, Anthony.
If you're having trouble finding a job, have you tried just going into the company directly and asking? I'm sure they'd take one look at you and immediately see what an intelligent and capable person you are and hire you right away. /s
I think you replied to the wrong comment, but yeah, this advice just keeps getting worse every decade.
Some conservatices can appear decent, but absolutly every last republican is a fucking asshole after too much taco bell.
I don't think any of these assholes have ever had to dumpster dive for groceries before.
Had to? no ... but I am certain that RFK Jr has done it for fun
Why would he need to dumpster dive when there's an abundance of roadkill to be found on his daily commute?
Not much raccoon penis in dumpsters, is there?
I have to admit I was assuming dumpsters contained maybe more dead animals than was realistic
rfk jr prefers FRESH roadkill. no doubt he has the urges to eat a crow once.
Oh, they'll go to war. Just not the one you think.
I was hoping not to have to say this, but generally speaking I don't think retail workers are the ones going viral on social media. Whether it's writing skills or editing skills, socioeconomically downwardly mobile media employees are more likely to drive that side of the culture war.
Doesn't mean the plight of the working poor in retail and other service work isn't real, but I'd expect that to be more "quiet desperation" than "viral on Bluesky".
