I get the differences, but there are similarities, microfinance is just the banking world's version of the gig economy, still predatory in nature, still exploiting the poor under the guise of helping the poor.

What's even sadder is that it's millions of people that some of us used to look up to and respect, now we just have a bunch of sad brainwashed shells of the people they used to be before Trump/conservative propaganda got ahold of them. They broke our communities and now they've broken our families, now all that's left is for them to break is us.

I'm not the biggest Hillary fan but she's been right about the Trump Qult from day 1 and this is a great essay from her about this topic:

According to Mike Pence it gets low like that in Indiana because the witches tits make it colder on Halloween, or so mother says...

The "gig" economy was only ever really set up to exploit the poor and desperate, but at the same time these people need those incomes or those second jobs doing stuff like Uber and door dash and other micro-economy jobs.

It's really tough to be poor, uneducated, and untrained in modern society because you just get crushed by forces so far beyond your control and you are so far below those forces notice that they hardly care beyond their desires to exploit you.

Finally, after Erdogan played both sides as much as he thought he could, what a douche.

Meh, OP Stalin is Tankie Jesus, if you said Mario was Marx then this wouldn't be a Tankie meme, because Marx wasn't a bloodthirsty dictator but Stalin was.

40% of voting Floridians voted against DeSantis, Florida is also the state with the third highest Jewish population, I'm fairly certain that nowhere near all of Florida has "Nazi" politics.

Maybe try not sounding like an ignorant by generalizing the third most populated state, which is also just as mixed as the other three most populated states. You're just sounding like those idiots that bitch about how California is all "liberal" while ignoring the conservative North Cali and all of the Neo-Con enclaves and Nazis in between.

Sure the Florida GOP are pretty much Nazi-lite, but there's a shitload of Florida citizens who are not them and completely disagree with them and are doing what they can to push back against them.

It's "bad" because a bunch of racists heard a black woman telling people to stay woke and immediately knew they had to do something racist about it:
