- Comment on Universal basic income is 'straight out of the Karl Marx playbook,' financial guru Dave Ramsey says 1 day ago:
Plenty of young people agree with him, because this isn’t a generational issue, it’s a class one.

I don’t think the aggression was warranted or helpful, and only served to stagnate the discussion.
Lmfao, whatever makes you feel better and not have to confront realities that make you uncomfortable… 🙄

Hopefully the UKs situation improves from the past 14-15 years of the Tories rule
This is all the confirmation it takes. You’re close, but if you still think Starmer’s Labour is going to change anything fundamental about how things are run, you’ve not been paying attention.

Lmmfao, ok, if we’re going for context, you’ve managed to conveniently leave out that Starmer, the current Labour leader has not only publicly declared transphobic shit like men = penis woman = vagina, but is now also taking advice from Joanne herself, after she called him out for not being a tef, and he willingly obliged to prove her wrong.
The idea that only Tories are responsible for the institutionalised transphobia in this country, and that blue Labour is going to do anything but continue toeing exactly the same line, is not only laughable, but glaringly and wilfully ignorant.

If you think those in power in the UK, widely known as TERF island, aren’t deliberately and actively trying to harm trans people (among others), you’ve not been paying attention,.

A compelling argument I’ve heard is that the greatest performance enhancing drug is being exposed to testosterone during puberty and that seems to be the base line a lot of the sporting organisations use
It might be compelling, but that doesn’t make it true (the testosterone in puberty part, not the sports organisations using transphobic rhetoric part, though as you can see bellow, even the International Olympic Committee, arguably the biggest global sports organisation, doesn’t advocate this thinking)
several key conclusions coincide with findings from the IOC funded study, including…Testosterone levels do not predict athletic performance or overall athleticism.

How the fuck has she been allowed to get away with it for so long I don’t know.
Those in power agree with her
- Comment on Yesterday when I went to see Inside Out 2, one of the trailers was for a "Mufasa" movie, in the style of the last live action remake. What the heck. 5 days ago:
I have faith in some kind of course correction,
Then neither you, nor Michael Eisner are paying attention (though LMFAO at you bringing a former Disney exec, not even a creative but a business man, as representation of someone who gives a shit about cinema).
Also, the idea that if the big corporate propaganda machines fail, cinema fails, just goes to prove how well said propaganda works.

Movies are bombing now, and they keep churning out the same, and consistently worsening, garbage.
Studios will fire their entire staff in exchange for an AI megafarm before they consider “wasting” any more of their time on quality. Why would they when quantity is enough to fill their pockets?
So called enshitifaction is taking hold everywhere, what makes you think the entertainment industry is any different?? Hoping for shareholders to give a shit, at this point in time, is laughable.

People are starting to get bored of the live action soulless remakes
Lol, you think the companies throwing billions at AI give a shit? It’s only going to get worse from here…
