Ironically, the left frequently references the "Face Eating Leopards" meme, even though they're the only ones who regularly eat their own

This should be reappropriated into an alt right meme, every "Woman who ran an illegal immigrant shelter raped by the illegals she protected" news story replied to with "I never thought the leopards would eat MY FACE!"

Reminder that OKCupid found that black women are rated the least attractive of any race of significant numbers in the US by FAR. Running a black woman as their face is the literal worst thing to do when it's psychology 101 that attractive people are more liked on instinct.

I know this is broadly grouping races, given white people isn't a monolith (English women tend to look like sacks of bricks), but there is a notable phenotypical difference between African Americans and actual Africans. Between the pooor diet, rampant inbreeding, and Dahlian explanation that bad personalities make a person ugly, African Americans are notably much uglier than actual Africans.

AOC

A TREKKIE

Of all the horseshit in that video, that might be the most enraging. AOC can't fucking count all her toes in one sitting, there's no way in hell she's a Trekkie

And no, nu-Trek doesn't fucking count at all

As for being new, two of the people telling me to lurk moar have a join date less than a year old. That they have aped onto forum culture within A&N to impress strangers on the internet so quickly is interesting to me. Maybe I have cause to accuse quite a few people in this thread of being lolcows. Just a thought.

Join date doesn't mean much, i lurked for a couple years before I joined. Some people are on their 2nd, 3rd, and even fourth account because of lost login passwords and a couple times when the site went down on clearnet. It's mostly just you come across like a faggot and your shit is all retarded.

It’s funny when you contrast this with what the dems are trying to do today with their disastrous tik tok of horrifying old crones jacking off invisible men. Striving and pathetic, meanwhile JD is a professional statesman who simply gives a little nod and a smile that the kids made some silly meme of his face.

And think of the quiet seething from the faggots who made this meme, because they started it with the intent of trying to bully him or give him body dysmorphia, which doesn’t work on normal people with friends and family who aren’t terminally online miserable lonely faggots.

Yes, another outcome is that tariffs make cheap goods completely unprofitable, so that only expensive, premium goods remain. The consumer still feels this as a price increase.

it's not a binary though, cheap goods vs expensive.

1) there is a huge new category of cheap goods that simply would not have existed before globalization and container shipping. if you can't buy a $20 bubble machine for your kids, you're not going to buy a $40 one. you're going to just blow bubbles. This is also true for many kitchen gadgets, party supplies, etc

2) as has been discussed here, the repair/replace costs of the "cheap" goods complicate the issue significantly.

3) the most difficult issue to discuss is the impact this all has on the domestic and cottage economy, because it's the hardest to quantify, but it's very real. The presence of cheap chinese crap destroys people's ability to make money with their skills and eventually destroys those skills. Once you can go to a big box store and buy crap you don't have to pay someone to make a better version. Once you are forced to replace something when it breaks because it either cannot be repaired or is so cheap to replace you can't justify the repair, the person who would have repaired it loses. This has profound effects on society that are easy to ignore because again they're very very difficult to quantify, but I've seen the disappearance of alteration shops and shoe repair and people's loss of the option to make a little money making halloween costumes or whatever. Some of this has been ameliorated by the Internet but that doesn't change the damage to the social fabric.

When Sammich and I agree on something, you know you're doing something wrong.

I love how they make you pause the video because they can't stop themselves from using too many words.

That aside, they are known by many names; liberal white women in their 40s, cat ladies, Karens, empty egg cartons. They really need to stop promoting this kind of women, otherwise they can kiss men goodbye, forever.

I really, really want this to happen too. LMAO. Given that Nintendo has a track record of going after some of the most benign uses of their IP, there's a fairly good chance of this happening.

People might be bashing you for this. But if there's anything this thread has shown me (including people I've spoken to IRL on all sides of the political spectrum), most don't really look at long-term sustainability. If they don't see immediate positive changes, they'll assume everything is going into a super death spiral. I wonder how this is going to play out for the rest of his presidency, considering how woefully pessimistic people get over this...

African Americans are a mixed people at about 20% White/80% Black. We also tend to get Elite Africans in the US.
