If I ever see or hear the words "you are voting against your interests", my response is this:
So tell me what my interests are.
The person making the initial assertion will either need to know me very well to accurately assess how I should change my voting patterns to align with my interests or they should admit that they do not actually know my interests.
And if they admit this, then how can they state that I am voting against my interests when they do not have knowledge of them?
@memes I am no fan of emojis, but I am no fan of the faggotry of this anti-emoji redditor's comment.
"I'll be forced to issue a downvote to your comment. Why should you care, you may ask? Well to begin, you will lose karma on your account, which is a useful social status tool and also a way to show others you know your way around Reddit."
When you comment on the reason why you downvote someone, you are the reason people (correctly) think Reddit sucks so much.
Apparently betting markets think Trump is going to win. No polls or odds are going to mean anything if those pulling the strings want to get the "correct" result.
They will just make up whatever lies they need to in order to provide enough of a smokescreen to keep the normies from suspecting anything. But who knows? Maybe they want war with Iran or they know that the system is held together by duct tape and see this as the perfect opportunity to let things fall apart.
We will see soon.

millenials are the boomers of the arts. they grew up in an era where movies and games were amazing and then ruined it all as soon as they took control, all while feeling smugly superior to the following generation who has to sit through the latest remake of a 40 year old movie. then they moan about kids watching Skibidi Toilet as if anything they're making for that demographic isn't complete dogwater. not to mention they look down on the mental health crisis as if they didn't all fake depression to get attention ten years ago.
@MCMLXVIIOTG @kurtschlichter @Humpleupagus it was already played out too much with just Trump. It is not like nobody is aware that they call Trump the next Hitler. Nobody cares anymore.
Reminds me of how these same libtards want to use The Emperor's New Clothes analogy. The problem with this comparison is that they are the opposite of afraid to say "the emperor has no clothes," because they cannot stop screeching about him.

>How is it cowardice? I'm not following.
They've spent the last 80+ years doing the "everyone we don't like is Hitler". And they're shocked when the dog whistle is no longer effective?!?

The reason the modern regime will collapse is because it is entirely built around a mythical Hitler and the alleged holocaust.
With time, no one will give a fuck, just like no one really gives a fuck about the napoleonic wars.
As a result, the foundation will crumble, and everything else with it.
To build the entire zeitgeist around these myths was just stupid. It's too temporary.

So it's either that or they are intentionally lying to their audiences who they expect to not understand.
@Stahesh >the lowest paid people in the countrt are essential to its functioning
Sort of. Those were the people the government selected as being essential, while many jobs were artificially barred from being done to their full capacity. Just because you do not need a product or service every day does not mean it is not essential. I recall we had a chip shortage during that time, making cars way more expensive.
We do have many useless jobs due to bureaucratic requirements though.
The most recent factor in all of this is the overall lack of pushback. When these story ideas are not properly challenged, it does not allow for much real refinement.
This lack of pushback only serves to embolden the egos of these women in storytelling media. Only when money is lost from these bad ideas do they finally see consequences from their failure.
A lot of women who are in charge of storytelling do not understand what it means to struggle. Not in the sense that failure has grave consequences. Many women are insulated by the consequences of failure, which makes it so that when they have to conceptualize a story, they draw from the experience of "I am so awesome and everyone needs to realize it" instead of one that comes from genuine struggle.
This makes both the storytelling and the characters bad. There is no real challenges for Mary Sue because she can do everything effortlessly. She just has to realize it and tell all the naysayers that they are wrong and she is great.
This makes for a boring story and is really getting tiresome (e.g. Captain Marvel, Star Wars 7-9). Stories are better when the character has real struggles to overcome.
I suspect that the increase in Mary Sue characters in media is the result of a perfect storm of females lacking the understanding of what it means to struggle in order to earn (what men regularly experience) as well as a major lack of pushback in today's academic and corporate world.
Thus, we get story telling about female characters who are always just so amazing at everything and the only "conflict" they have is the Patriarchy holding them back from being awesome.
@ToyotaTime Men do not ask women to put on makeup, especially not to the extent this woman puts in on.
And besides, the reason men are not wanting to pay on the date is because there are too many women who do not adhere to their proper role in this courtship dynamic (as many women have abandoned traditional values), as well as the women who are only looking for a free meal with men they never intended to even consider a prospect for dating.

Women lie about everything part 2
"I wear makeup for myself"
Women do NOT wear makeup, fake eyelashes, drawn on eyebrows, and get plastic surgery
"for themselves"
Women do it for validation. Which is why they insist men have to pay for expensive dates, because "I put a lot of effort in to look this good"
In my opinion all that fake shit that women wear to hide how they really look isn't attractive anyway.

@Pain66 Yeah, this won't result in men just putting in no effort and/or having this system bankrupt in no time at all when women's demand for more luxury beyond just healthcare services (based on their "unique living arangements" becoming an ever increasing cost).
Men need to have skin in the game for them to work hard. This is just a system that makes the already strained issue with men having no stake in society become even worse.
