It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his liberal media patronage depends upon his not understanding it.

but I AM a liberal

No you’re not. Your silence on Palestine has been deafening. You’re just a fascist.

That’s just it. Being a liberal is just being a fascist but paying very occasional lip service to a humanitarian cause

I guess I was just imagining:
- Sky high rents
- Sky high costs of everything except for labor
- Not only is labor one of the only things that has gotten cheaper, but no one wants to actually hire anymore so it’s tough as hell to even get started as an adult
- the homelessness everywhere
- all the smaller businesses closing down because landlords can’t close their gluttonous maws for one second taking shit that isn’t their’s.
But sure, speculative assets have gone up, and the elites are living it up in their yachts as usual. Hurrah!
But have you considered all of the exciting new business openings?
It would be one thing if he lived in an ivory tower or if he lived in the pundit-verse. If he said he didn’t know any better because nobody told him - it would be a very shitty excuse that but it would be something.
But he’s out in the real world and nearly every day multiple people try to help him understand but he goes right back to his uber-shitty tweets about the economy and why don’t people understand the reality and the numbers and why can’t they see how great Bidenomics is???
Dems have now reached the stage of being 2000s republicans.
“Things are good, peasant. You’re just mad weaklings like you have to be sacrificed for our greatness. Survival of the fittest, kiddo!”
“Tons of exciting business openings” did you forget covid happened? Everyone’s lifestyles drastically shifted? Then their savings shot up and for drained again within 2 years? Like of course there’s “tons of exciting businessss”, the world’s been really chaotic and people’s spending habits have probably changed more times since 2020 than they did from 2000 to 2020.
Also “exciting new businesses opening” is not a sign that things are going well, it’s a sign that businesses have collapsed and left vacant units for new wannabe small business tyrants to gamble their savings away on. Maybe it’s not as bad as a bunch of units being left vacant, but it’s inherently a sign of a churn of failure in those businesses as well.
: “But think of the opportunity for invoosters! Line is SO going to go up! Get back to work, peasant. You’ve clearly had too much to think!”
To illustrate your point, young people are apparently “Doom Spending” because they think there’s basically no future worth saving for so max out those credit cards and yolo.

In My neighborhood I have had a half dozen dentist offices open up, I guess that totally offsets housing prices going up 50%
[Dentist waiting room]
Me: [chanting] teeth, teeth-
Other patients: teeth, TEETH
Secretary: [pounding her clipboard] TEETH, TEETH, TEETH!
Just wait until those turn into Cash4Teeth
3rd Reich and Switzerland had this scheme, but it was them who got the cash and the people providing teeth got death in exchange.
Whatever kinds of businesses this nerd thinks are “exciting” categorically deserve to be pillaged in broad daylight.
Damn this cash4gold place is lit af, economy must be doing great - super smart liberals
From my experience from the 90’s, when a neighbourhoods or entire towns go to shit (especially looking at you fucking Wałbrzych, half of Silesia, Łódź, or every post-PGR village ever) economically and “new business opportunities open” it’s always:
Pawn shops and usury loan sharks
Fuck them specifically with a white hot metal elements looted from ruins of privatised industry.
“I’m not saying you can’t cherry pick bad stuff”
Yeah cause he was totally defending the ability to cherry pick info.
Do people who say this stuff really think they managed to slide a comment like this in there without anyone noticing.
I followed him for years because I thought he was funny. Occasionally he poked fun at the left but I ignored that. He had bad takes before - that’s why I followed him but this year he transmogrified. He revels in hostility. He combatively punches left day after day after day and he’s turned into a bad take machine. I’m not surprised leftists hate him but I am surprised how many leftist know his name.
