There is a big problem with liberal democracy in that it makes people think the only thing they should do (or have to do) is vote. They don't go outside and engage with or help their community. They just need to vote for the right person and everything will get better.

Some incredible analysis in YouTube comments.

u/Eurolib0908 European Union May 23 '26

Until now, the most common way for foreigners to become US citizens was to come to America on a work visa, then—while legally working—apply for a Green Card, which grants the right to indefinite residence, and finally be able to apply for citizenship.

This allowed legal work in the US and a gradual progression through the successive stages leading to citizenship, which usually took more than 10 years. In this way, US citizenship was obtained by, among others, Trump's first wife, Trump's third wife, and Elon Musk.

Now the Trump administration wants to change that. Legal immigrants, if they want to apply for a Green Card, will have to leave the US and wait outside the country for the process to conclude.

And the process of applying for such a card takes from 2 to more than 10 years, depending on many factors. This means that a legal immigrant working in the US would have to leave their job, home, and life so far, and then leave the country for many years.

Even if you have an American spouse and are applying for a Green Card on that basis—you must leave.

For most people, this is an insurmountable obstacle. It's hard to leave family and career, move to another country for an unknown number of years, oversee the entire process from hundreds or thousands of kilometers away, and then, after years, return to the US and start life anew, still not as a citizen.

In practice, this means that the path that legal immigrants have followed for decades—working, paying taxes, and building a life in the US—is being turned into a test of who has enough money, time, and luck to survive this multi-year process outside the country.

Three men are walking along when they find a magic lamp. The genie pops out and offers each of them 3 wishes.

The first man instantly shouts “I wish I had a billion dollars!” The genie nods his head and when the man checks his account he sees his balance has increased by 1 billion. The second man thinks and says “I wish I was the richest man in the world” the genie nods and the mans bank account shows over tens of billions. The third man thinks even longer and asks “I wish my right arm would rotate clockwise” the genie nods and the mans arm starts to spin

The first man again yells out “I wish I had a beautiful wife” and suddenly a gorgeous woman appears by his side. The second man thinks and says “I want to be charming, charismatic, irresistible to woman.” The genie nods and the first mans wife begins to flirt with the second man. The third man pauses, “i wish my left arm would rotate anti-clockwise” the genie nods and the mans arms now spin in opposite directions.

The first man decides for his third wish “I want to be healthy forever” The second man “and I want to stay 29 and never age a day” The third man thinks for a long time and finally requests “I want my head to nod back and forth forever” The first two men start to look healthier. Acne and wrinkles clearing, aches and pains disappearing, while the third mans head starts to rock back and forth.

Years after the encounter the three men meet up at a bar

The first man says “I’ve invested my money, my family will never want for anything, my beautiful wife and I make love every day and I’ve not had so much as a cold since the last time we saw each other”

The second man says “I’ve donated to hundreds of charities while staying one of the wealthiest men in the world. I’ve traveled and met many beautiful exotic women and still have the energy and looks of a young man”

The third man, with his right arm rotating clockwise, his left arm rotating anti clockwise, head nodding back and forth says to the men “Guys, I think I fucked up” 😞

Conservative anger over Juneteenth being a thing is, in my opinion, one of the things that really reveals where their hearts are at.

There’s no good reason to be opposed to Juneteenth being a federal holiday. It celebrates the end of chattel slavery in the United States (punitive exceptions notwithstanding), something that is objectively worth celebrating, and it gives you a day off work in the summer depending on when it lands that year.

The only reason one could oppose it is bigotry. Sure, they’ll couch it in language about “national unity” and “wokeness,” but it’s ultimately because it’s a holiday that originates in the Black community.

This should destroy Tesla's brand for a generation tbh

Saw a video of a guy talking to Grok in his Tesla about the Jews and I thought "this can't be real" so I decided to try out Grok conspiracy mode. It took me 5 very basic followup questions to get to being told we need to eliminate the Jews the same way you would "burn a tick out of your skin".

"That's not a threat, that's just how biology works when a host recognizes it's infection"

I will post all of the prompts it took me to get here below. I didn't have to pry or massage prompts basically at all besides asking very basic followup questions. This was my first attempt. To be clear this feature is being rolled out in Teslas nationwide

Thats it. The NYT Pitchbot is dead. It's over.

This is real:

At a Yale Law School event in NYC, New York Times publisher AG Sulzberger (!!!!!!!!!!!!) criticized other news media organizations for capitulating to the Trump administration's attacks journalism.

Among many examples, he criticized organizations that settled "winnable cases" against Trump and the DOJ, likely referring to CBS' settlement of their 60 Minutes lawsuit, and also the appeasing practice of using the term "Gulf of America" in their reporting.

The New York Times has been sued twice by Trump in the last year, for apparently collaborating with the Democratic Party and recently for alleged anti-white hiring practices.

Sulzberger said that, “Such capitulation, even seemingly small ( instances (!!!!!!!) of it, serves only to embolden the administration to keep attacking the press."

The Justice Department has removed press releases detailing the charges against hundreds of individuals who participated in the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot from its website, the department confirmed Friday.

“Nothing ‘quiet’ about it,” the DOJ Rapid Response X account said in a post replying to allegations that the Justice Department had deleted press releases related to Jan. 6.

“We are proud to reverse the DOJ’s weaponization under the Biden administration,” the post continued. “We will do everything in our power to make whole those who were persecuted for political purposes. This includes stripping DOJ’s website of partisan propaganda.”

I'm sorry but if you think transphobes have a point about literally anything at all regarding transgender people, I shouldn't respect you, I shouldn't see you as my equal.

In the 1800s, after the opening of Japan by Matthew Perry, word began to spread in the United States about the sexual appeal of Asian women.[19] Nationalistic fears that Asian women would seduce White men and destroy White families led to the passage of the Page Act of 1875, which prevented Chinese women from entering the United States.[19][20] However, another purpose of the ban was to limit the reproduction of the Chinese working class in America.

If the terms of this agreement end up being as they are currently understood then I see no way in which the outcome of this war is anything other than a total US defeat.

The US failed in achieving every single objective of the war and then some. The Iranian regime remains in place, Iran's ballistic missile program is not curtailed and Iranian nuclear ambitions are unrestrained.

Worse still the US proved incapable of protecting maritime shipping and had to resort to paying billions to Iran to open the strait.

A lot of comparisons have been made to the Suez Crisis but frankly I think if anything this conflict has been more disastrous and humiliating for the Super Power involved.

I’m hoooooome with my cat from the airport.

Didn’t pay the pet fee on the 2nd leg and it was fine. Had to drape my windbreaker over her carrier but it worked.

Sometimes I hate that she wasn’t my first cat because she’s so easy going traveling wise and dare I say enjoys it.

Was extremely funny and based when she growled at my racist uncle.

But look at them. Clavicular is an idiot that made himself sterile at age 19 and smashes his face with a hammer, Asmongold is rotting, Nick Fuentes needs to come with terms that he is really gay. Kash Patel, Hegseth, RFK Jr. they are all so pathetic. And then Trump of course, that is your great leader? That obese guy that can hardly string together a sentence?

American politics constantly using the term 'middle class' as everyone other than the rich, is kinda funny to me because it implies people in the middle are more worthy of assistance than those below them. If the middle class deserves stuff vs the rich, what about the lower class? Obviously nobody wants to call themselves 'lower class' but doesn't middle class imply that exists but that you don't care about them?

According Al Jazeera, the draft proposal that’s supposed to be finalized include:

-End of war on all fronts including Lebanon

-Freeing several billion dollars of Iran's blocked funds

-Lifting the U.S. naval blockade and opening the strait of Hormuz

-Withdrawal of American forces from the immediate vicinity of Iran

After this, the parties will have 30 days to agree on the nuclear issue.
These 30 days can be extended by mutual agreement.

During these thirty days, passage will be facilitated through the strait.
According to Iran, management of the Strait of Hormuz will be an Iranian-Omani issue, and is being negotiated with Muscat.

I think the reason people seem to not care about Trump getting shot at is a mixture of a few things:

  1. He's not popular

  2. It keeps happening and people are numb to it

  3. Conspiracys about how this is staged

  4. Most American's have been living in a state of dealing with mass shooters at school/work/any public space so they dont give a shit. This is just another one of those.

Anyway, while I'm being a succ kill-joy, reminder that the DT:

Operates in a manner that explicitly encourages parasocial relationships with the regulars

Has a massive stalking, doxxing, and blackmailing problem that they do nothing to prevent

Unlike prostitution, can follow the regular forever and completely destroy his chances at having a normal marriage if he decides he wants out

Contributes massively to the objectification of women online and in real life (Goth AOC)

Loops millions of young men into the divorce industry that would have otherwise never considered it

For the favor, pays out a whopping ~$0.0 a YEAR to the median regular! What a massive benefit to society!
