If Biden had been president over the last 2 weeks there would have been innumerable threads on the crashed stock market and “is Biden trying to kill our economy”; but given it is a right wing forum, the loss of Trillions is entirely besides the point you know.
And the news telling us that we're seeing record growth and later Biden struggling through a canned speech. In 2022 there was a downturn, for example. You probably don't remember.

True enough. That's just politics for you though.

The difference here is that Biden wouldn't have the positives of less immigration and being more nationalistic. That and it'd be more a question if anyone is at the helm under Biden, rather than incompetence on Trump's side.

I'm of the mind that the economy is destined for a correction of sorts, just based on the covid money printing and decades of other nonsense. Its hard for me in the moment to really blame either Biden (during his time in office obviously) or Trump directly, cause its got more factors than that.
 
My teacher went into explicit detail about a Nazi experiment where they put glass into jewmens dicks and then brought out a hot naked jewess to make their weniers hard which would break the glass in their dicks.

Looking back I don't think this really happened either. It's more likely my teacher was a pedophile telling us her kinks.

We learned about lampshades and soap and gas chambers with wooden doors and metal walls full of scratches.. the doors made it out unscathed though
 
You know its fascinating if you look at how fascism was talked about in say the late 1800s to early 1900s you would simply see it as a another political ideology nothing more, nothing less, but after the funny mustache man did his shtick suddenly fascism became the great devil of the world, any and all politics that were even slightly left were labelled as fascist, and that got me thinking what exactly makes fascism evil? Because many of the sins that people attribute to fascism have also been done by socialist or democratic ideology. Then of course you get to the notion of how faceim ent from a clear political ideology with rules and themes, to this vauge idea that can secretly get you if you're not looking. So to this I say what makes fascism evil?

The Stock Market has been vastly overdue for a correction. Sorry but you should have been aware that rug pulls happen in the Stock Market as well as Crypto.
 
>fasciscm

Of course, people who think like this cannot spell "fascism" properly. This doesn't surprise me.
I guarantee you 99.5% of people who term something as fascist could not give an outline of the tenets of fascism, of any flavor. They'd default to 'big state right wing authoritarianism' every time.
 
Its so weird how liberals talk about how America was always suppose to be a "melting pot" but at the same time, the founding fathers were also racist white supremacists who owned slaves. Which is it? Did the founding fathers want America to be this multicultural country to where blacks and browns outnumbered the descendants of the whites who fought against the British empire, or were they racist "cis" white males whose opinion shouldn't matter because they were slave owners?

The "melting pot" was in its truest form expressed by henry Ford in the early 1910s, the Melting pot was meant to be the process through which an immigrant becomes american and lets go of their previous lives. He literally had them step down from ships and immediately walk in a "melting pot" building where they came the other end in a suit and with an american flag to wave.
In every way it was about breaking down the external individual and moulding him back into the model american.

It’s whatever they want. It’s whatever they feel like.
Exactly this in short.

Nowadays it has nothing about the original idea. They turned down the heat so fucking low it turned the Melting Pot into a Perpetual Stew.
At least in medieval times, those could taste good if you had similar ingredients coming in to keep a certain flavor, but now we have every fucking thing thrown in there so it tastes like everything so it's shit.
The heat is so fucking low that it doesn't even kill germs anymore so the fucking thing is half mold by weight.

This is why we're dumping the fucking caked shit out.
This is why we're turning the heat back on
And god willing, we may actually put back good ingredients before turning it to temperatures high enough to boil steel if we have to.

God Bless America

That's because fascism used to have clear tenants and beliefs but after funny mustache man it was warped and became synoumus with whatever the left didn't like.
 
So to this I say what makes fascism evil?
Because you like your country (this isn't what fascism is; nationalism just tends to go hand-in-hand), and liking your country (if it's America) is bad because a portion of its population was bad to heccin minorities that one time. This is different than liking another country that does the same exact thing (especially if you're liking them in spite of America), because they're Not-America and it's not a heccin racism when they do it.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I had thought fascism was an Italian thing borne from Mussolini wanting a system that placed the head-of-state at the center of national interest. I'm not a particularly big politics buff. I'd like to be fact-checked on this.

Line will keep going down until conditions improve. We’ve been in a recession for years now. These people sabotage us at every turn. I don’t give two shits what they have to say about the economy. You didn’t care when people lost their jobs- it was all “learn to code.” You didn’t care during the lockdowns, or when businesses burned, or when workers got coerced into taking experimental drugs, so I don’t care what you think. You don’t get to go “muh economy” and hold it over our heads now.

Yeah most of us wanted the stock market to crash thats why we voted.
If you can make the line go up and down repeatedly by voting good presidents then bad presidents then that allows you to buy low and sell high repeatedly. Much more desirable, and profitable than just infinite line go up.
 
The opinions vary a ton, some people saying it didn't happen or that the numbers were bullshit, the more intelligent ones will point out that the concentration camps were more or less the part with the lowest of "genocidal" deaths, as a fuckton of it was because of typhus and starvation.
You also need to point out that after the war, the Allies, Soviets, and Jews were very invested with making the holocaust seem as bad as it can be because it suits their political agendas. Punishing the Germans, condemning fascism, and establishing Israel all hinge on the idea that the Germans systematically exterminated 6 million jews.
