Regardless of whether you can afford it, how are you going to pay for your new phone when your bank card is on the old, broken/lost phone?

Well, I rarely buy anything as big/expensive as a smartphone with cash....I'd likely buy a new phone like I did with the one I lost...using a credit card.

While I think the phone only ATM card is stupid....we "do" still have credit cards in our wallets, no?

It counts because ICE officers are not supposed to have any authority over citizens unless they are interfering with legitimate operations

And...that is exaclty what has been happening with ICE...especially in the states up north where protesters switched from peaceful protest to interfering with officers trying to perform their duties....

Then tell me how awful the DSA is. Canadians I know all agree that self-proclaimed "centrist" Dems would fit just fine... in their CONSERVATIVE Tory party. And that Bernies *barely* left of center.

Err in the US we dont give fuck all what Canadian liberals think.....liberal there and in EU...have nothing to do with liberal / conservative here in the US.

And in the US, these latest Dems and DSA Dems are so far left we can barely see them anymore.

You choose not to acknowledge it because it's inconvenient to you.

That makes no sense....

I fully support our officers trying to enforce our immigration laws here in the US.

I can't understand why any US citizen would actually be against such.....

Citations please?

I find that high of a number hard to believe, but out of those...how many were guilty of impeding these agents ICE officers while they were carrying out their duty?

Detained and released doesn't really count....happens with regular police too.

DSA is not the Democratic Party.

Well, they are getting elected as Dems.....they seem to be having an undue influence on the Dem party, or at least the Dems in power seem to be worried about offending them by disagreeing with them....so....if it quacks like a duck....

Dishonest framing. That's not what ICE is about. All you people have to offer is dishonesty.

Funny..that's exactly what I've seen ICE doing...rounding up and deporting illegal aliens in the US.

That is their purpose under immigration law.

If it weren't for idiots out there violently protesting and impeding these agents in their duty....things would be doing smoother and US citizens would not have been getting hurt.

So, again...what do you have against our law enforcers enforcing immigration law.

The laws basically say, if you are NOT here legally, you need to GO.

The US and its tech industry are cancers on humanity, and that's not changing anytime soon.

Well,, good for you...I hope you start "doing your part" to combat all this....throw out that cell phone, (especiallly if it is a smart phone)....ax that internet connection and hell...throw that computer out.

No need for TVs, etc....rid yourself of all that burdensome tech and the US is the devil behind.

Good Luck I say in your fight against the Great Satan!!

Hmm...so seriously, why do you oppose the US enforcing immigration laws?

I mean, he did break a bunch of laws

Care to enumerate the "bunch of laws" he broke?

No it didn't, there is no far left. Joe Biden is as centrist as it gets, Harris is as centrist as it gets. 2024 was pure propaganda, it had nothing to do with progressive policies.

I can only assume then, that you're comparing the US "left" to what the EU considers "left".

Yes, we're more right on the left here than EU (although not so much with the DSA platform).....but that isn't the comparison to make.

Biden and Kamala especially....are quite far LEFT as far as internal to the US is concerned.

Up there with AOC, Bernie and the squad.

do tell, what fuckery do you speak of?

Pretty much the entire DSA platform/agenda.

I get it, you're a selfish prick and there is no such thing in your mind as a government acting for the betterment of everybody.

It should be self evident....at least in the US. The Govt is there...elected BY YOU to SERVE YOU and represent your wishes.

Why the fuck else would you vote for someone?

I got this from ChatGPT: UAW autoworker wages (2026)

Worker level Approx. hourly wage

Newer production hire $29 - $32

Worker progressing through pay scale $33 - $39

Experienced, top-tier production worker $40 - $43

Skilled trades (electrician, mechanic, etc.) $45 - $48+

And remember, cost of living in the US. is not ALL like it is in NYC or SF.....
