Its literally gross domestic product. He You bought a product that is local (domestic) and gross (used).

not good.

A good friend of mine, @the fall of man, told me vix is broken. And vix 1day is a better indicator. Let's take a look at it.

oh no....

And here's the historical chart of VIX. The big peaks are 2008 and 2020. We haven't reached 2020 levels yet. And there's still 2008 levels to reach.

Small correction: We are still dealing with the fundies who didn't want anyone playing dungeons and dragons. It's just that they have switched parties and rebranded with rainbow flags now, and these days it's the demons of colonialism and white supremacy and cisheteronormativity that will possess the souls of young men if they pursue unapproved hobbies or interests. But the personality type (and its aims) are exactly the same.
What you're facing now is worst then the fundamentalists of old some have disdain for. There is no path of redemption or conversion now, only submission. Anyone can turn to Christ but can a person change their skin color or who their ancestors were?
 
>crashing the market is good actually, because it pwns the libs
If worshipping the market got our country to this point, then what good was the worship?

I do not care if the stock market crashes. I kind of hope it does, given that it's very blatantly bullshit. The holy line (it must always go up) lead to H-1Bs, Jeets, and countless American industries being sent overseas to enrich a handful of shifty Jews and shithole countries like Vietnam or China. Let the line go down for a while. As a bonus, this will REALLY hurt the boomers.

Yes the boomers deserve to die and I hope they burn in hell. Except for the boomers who aren't selfish fuckwads.

You should've trusted the plan. We were only 4 years away from the shitlib utopia if we elected Kamala. Stupid magatards threw it all away.
 
SCOTUS stayed an order requiring Department of Education to give infiity gibs for diversity. Roberts dissented
Barret coming through for once.

I’m glad Robert’s legacy will just be eternal screeching over Roe vs Wade. He’s earned it.

So what is Trump's plan behind the tariffs?

Even if it's encouraging domestic manufacturing, we still need the raw materials and equipment to build the plants all of which will be more expensive.
 
  • Agree
Reactions: Vladislav
New Nintendo console, new iPhone, new overpriced shoes sorry shoe guy the latest temu or wish gadget they saw on TikTok or instagram it's all the same high time preference bullshit of weak minded dopamine addicted individuals with nothing worthwhile in their lives to turn their attention to.
Perhaps after the withdrawals are through, they'll find they can focus on making and building skills instead of consuming.
Gardening, sewing, crafts, fishing, hunting, woodcarving, even some backyard chickens if they've got the room. All much more fulfilling and satisfying than consoooooming all the time.
I possess quite a few of these skills you are talking about, but I'm still going to bitch about my new Switch being expensive. Sorry.
 
It costs 13k per month for my grandmother's nursing home granted she's greatest generation not boomer but if reddit NEETS think they have big inheritances coming they're delusional.

Boomers will burn every single penny they have on hairbrained medical schemes desperately clinging to life well into the 2050s.
The Boomers were promised lives of unparalleled luxury and opulence. Granted, it was they themselves who promised themselves this, but it doesn't matter, the promise must be kept.

This included immortality -- the eggheads were supposed to science us out of this "Aging" shit by now. The good times were never supposed to end. Unfortunately all the anti-aging treatments they have experimented with, like Telomere extensions, instantly cause mega turbo autistmo niggercanceraids and kill you stone dead within months.

It should be fun watching the boomers slowly come to terms with the realization that no amount of forcing the line to go up will keep the reaper at bay, and worse, their kids can't afford to put them in a 13k (lets be honest they'll want the GOOD home with white nurses, so 35k) a month nursing home because whoops turns out fucking over the next generations and the economy so you could go waste money in vegas every few months is a bad idea after all they just don't have any work ethic, the lazy bastards.
 
America has literally no natural resources other than niggers, we're doomed.
I hope you're kidding. We have a lot of natural resources. Including rare earth minerals. There's just a ton of red tape put up by nimbys and environmentalists.

If Trump could cut through that and tell the two groups to fuck off, we'd be fine.

I'm not advocating for dumping car batteries into the oceans. But the environmentalists have gone too far.
