You don't know shit then. Stop talking like you know America if you aren't from here, asshole.

We need to raise taxes on the rich back to what they were in the good old days Republicans pine for. Marginal tax rate of 90%. "Oh!" you whine, "Nobody paid that!" Yes, but they paid more than they do now and that's the point. Raise taxes on capital gains, raise corporate taxes, lower taxes for the middle class and boom! Deficit fixed.

Normal people are not lazy, they just don't want to be taken advantage of. The real drag on our economy is billionaires and other tax cheats.

Oh stop lying. You can't provide any evidence for any of your wild claims. You censorious assholes only ever talk in generalities. Be specific. What fucking books are you talking about?

What normal people have figured out is that it is the right wing and religious figures who are abusing kids. So many right wingers who shout "groomer!" have been caught with child porn. You disgust normal Americans.

We don't have a left wing in US politics. We have a center right party, and a far right party. Neoliberals want everything Reagan wanted, they are not left wing. And they are very authoritarian.

It is pretty obvious that the right wing is banning books and free speech. That's what you mean, right? The actual government telling you what you can and can't read, and what you can and can't wear.

Sorry, bud, but "normal people," which is to say the majority of Americans, support people living however they please. We are not authoritarian by nature, quite the contrary. We believe in individual rights to self expression, and if you don't, I kindly suggest it you may not be a real American.

As for left wing narratives, the majority of voters in both parties favor economic policies to the left of what we have now. Medicare is left wing socialism, and the most popular government program ever made. That's why people like you want to get rid of it, not because it doesn't work. You want to get rid of it because it does work, and people know it. Kinda plays hell with your "no government is good government" propaganda.

It's not just the third party apps that use the API. Almost all moderator tools do as well. And Reddit plans to charge its own unpaid moderators for that API use.

Nobody, and I repeat NOBODY in any position of power, authority or influence over the site has called for zero cost API usage.

There's a reason that sites publish APIs: scrapers. These are incredibly inefficient. If Reddit keeps the price where it is now, piracy is an option, and it will cost Reddit more than just lost ad revenue, it will cost them server CPU cycles.

Naturally the PIN for a bank card should not be kept with the card.

I tattooed mine on a very sensitive part of my body. The only problem is having to explain myself when I walk up to an ATM and drop my pants.

Oh, and it's a 14 digit PIN.

This is more commercial real estate. Who mentioned homes?

You knee jerk reactionaries are hilarious. You whine about people being triggered, but one scary word can make your whole brain shut down, to the point you can't even comprehend plain English.

This is it exactly. Commercial real estate. This is why even state government agencies are being pressured to get back in the office: most states lease their office space.

If the wealthy elites want something, the media will print endless stories about why it is necessary and why, in fact, everyone already loves doing it. The government will pass any laws necessary to get the thing done, in a remarkably bipartisan and timely manner.

There are a number of studies that show that the preferences of the average voter means nothing. They literally have no bearing on what becomes law. The only thing that matters is the preferences of the top money hoarders. When the elites agree on something, it becomes law immediately. When the elites need help, it happens on the Monday after the crisis, not months later or not at all.

We need to elect politicians who loudly declare "Fuck the rich." If they are not willing to proudly and loudly stand AGAINST the owning class, they will definitely not stand for the working class. Make them say it outright, so the rich hear them saying it, "Fuck the rich. We're coming for the money they took from the working class."

More than just a regular old rich people's bank, this is THE bank for laundering dirty Russian money so the oligarchs can use it outside of Russia. If it goes tits up, the world will rejoice, as a major source of Evil dark money will be gone. Online discourse will become less rancorous as Russian troll farms don't get paid. And the Ukrainians will have an easier time wiping the floor with the sorry excuse for an army the Russians can field. So all in all? This is cause for celebration!

Shut the fuck up Ivan. Go die in a ditch with the rest of the orks. Be sure to put some sunflower seeds in your pocket first so your life will have served a purpose.

Porn is like any other addiction industry. The money all comes from the whales. Just like gambling or meth, 10% of customers make up 90% of the revenue stream. 90% of us don't pay for porn, but 10% of us pay for a lot of porn.
