Whenever Europeans think of America they think that
1: our country is a fraction of the size it actually is
2: that every square inch of America is picrel

It's fine that they're ignorant. We often judge European countries by how much of a shit hole some of their cities are, but their smug elitism is starting to extend past ignorance and heading towards completely delusional territory

The Eurotrash can only fall back on smug elitism because they can't explain what their "identity" even is. If you were to ask them, they will always answer with a collective gibberish about faggot 'sex', trannies, women’s sexual rights, George Floydism, and vaccines.

Basically, Eurocucks thought it was a good idea to have anal penetration replace God and freedom as the underlying morality of the Western world, with predictably disastrous results.

Caring about the economy or price of groceries is gay and stupid. It’s actually all Biden’s fault still.

To add perspective, that rest stop pic is in Pennsylvania, which by area would be the 16th largest country if it was in Europe. It's 33rd out of 50 here.

And the 200 or so acres of Breezewood are surrounded by wilderness and farms.

Are the protests over? Did they take the people home to the senior center yet?

No hypocrisy. Only America #1. Boomer 401k can go to hell.

July 2024 - “We’re going to lower grocery prices day 1”

That town is Breezewood, PA, which actually looks quaint from any other view.

This is what most of PA is like. Big shopping centers so that truckers can make stops, surrounded by an endless ocean of trees. I've driven through plenty of Breezewoods over the years.

How long until Trump realizes that fucking with the cattle's bread and circuses is the quickest way to lose everyone's support?

How long did it take the Democrats?
They are only just starting to get it, and it became a very big issue back when Sarkeesian first came around. I'd say at worst, he has a decade if any of this shit is attributed to him (it won't be), because we are only just now starting to see vocal consumer backlash to a pretty long time of leftoids directly fucking with entertainment.

Looks good bruh

It's Columbia. She was the first symbol for America prior to Uncle Sam taking the role. Columbia is a based goddess of fortune and power, and manifest destiny. She represents everything that led to the Founders fighting the British Empire to create us in the first place.
Uncle Sam was created during the rumblings of divisions between the states so the North could shame and infantilize Southern states with their big Uncle Sam telling these unruly toddlers to behave.
This cartoon is just showing America's military might, conveying that "Columbia" (America was also considered to be called Columbia at first) who is a stand in for America itself, has put on massive new military powers like a hat.
I explain because Columbia is to me what aged starlets are to you, buddy.

Uncle Sam represents the government. Liberty replaced Columbia as the symbol of America because of the Statue of Liberty.

You could not expect the Dems to stay demoralized and scattered forever, sooner or later they would pull themselves together and start pushing back.

The rich dudes were squeezed for some cash to push this "completely spontaneous grassroots protest" as a chance to kind of reset the game and pump some blood into the "resistance" as the Tesla shit was starting to slow down and backfire.

If the protests come off well it will help pull the Dems out of their despair spiral and give their npc's some hope and some direction which they desperately need.

My bet is most of these protests flop but that won't stop the drones and MSM from screaming at the top of their lungs how strong and powerful and massive these protest were. The standard stuff but turned up to 11 thanks to the situation.

Really nothing will happen as Trump gives no shits and he's flying on Executive Power only so even if the congress critters start to flag Trump can still steam ahead.

Left will attempt a coup very shortly with the support of globehomos. Civil war a guarantee next 3-5 years. I guarantee it.

Book mark this.

Well it's past 5 PM on the east coast now, so maybe?

Those pensions are probably invested in the market to produce their returns.

That’s not the point I’m making. Union guys don’t care how the pension is funded. It’s guaranteed. Whether the companies are worried about supporting the pension is really not on their minds at all. Some plans have a market-based component, but it’s thought of as more of a supplement.

Uncle Sam represents the government. Liberty replaced Columbia as the symbol of America because of the Statue of Liberty.

You are correct. Uncle Sam was first used around the early 1800s, during the War of 1812. However, he was not particularly well used until the early rumblings of state secessions. He was brought back like a legacy character in order to represent the Northern government being the big grownups to mock the unruly states acting like children. During this time, Columbia was ALSO used by northern (and southern) sympathizer cartoonists of anti-slavery, anti-racism movements. She went from representing Freedom, Liberty, American expansion and excellence to being shown giving protection to jews and chinese and blacks from the evil tyranny of the racist southern business heads who wanted to keep them building railroads.

Columbia, prior to this, was the catch all. America WAS it's government until the heavy separation of the two into almost two different things, which continues to this day.
And replacing Columbia with Liberty was silly, since she already represents this, and more. Don't you take my Columbia from me, she's America.

EDIT: because I'm retard and can't spell
EDIT 2: Because I'm curious and you got me digging, it looks like "Uncle Sam" as we know him now, didn't exist until 1917. His look and representation as we understand it now was based on Lincoln and a few others. He had earlier precursors, like Brother Jonathan. And a few mentions and art unlike what we envision now. But the origins of Uncle Sam are murky until 1917 solidified the character and what he represented. Some say it was based on a meat packer named Samuel Wilson. Others say that the term originated from in jokes in the military. Like people on merchant vessels asking what the US stamped on goods meant, and soldiers joking that it came from Uncle Sam.

You only post when you lose at gambling. Look, I shouldn't be doing this but just get yourself a bed to sleep in tonight, okay? 400 dollars should be enough to cover it.

You can spend these things in a place called a store. Eggs, milk, bills, these are things money is for, you don't need to buy stocks or shares. Your family misses the real you, they called me saying you were talking about market caps and your statistics-based low-risk leveraged shorts, you're scaring them and you have to stop gambling, John.
