How dare you insinuate that JD VANCE KILLED THE POPE, there isnt a single shred of evidence that JD VANCE KILLED THE POPE. Id like to see anyone claiming or even hinting that JD VANCE KILLED THE POPE take their evidence straight to Interpol so that it can be disproven categorically by trained experts that JD VANCE KILLED THE POPE.

I watched Space Jam with my daughter last night.

Wow what a fucking turd. I remembered it so fondly too, in reality I think theres about 30 minutes of closeups on Michael Jordans face.

You have a second amendment precisely for circumstances like this. Clean up your own yard.

If you're a government worker in a non allied country and an attractive stranger wants to touch your dingle, its a honeypot.

You're right on the math front, what I'm saying is that the exporting company/country isnt going to take a loss to sell their goods.

The question is "How do they think it works?"

[–] Delphia@lemmy.world 36 points 1 month ago (4 children)

A lot of them think that the country with the tarrifs levied against them needs to pay the country they are exporting to to sell the goods there like a "If you want to do business here" tax on the country exporting.

But in all honesty even if it did work that way, the exporting country would just jack the prices up to cover it. The end result for US citizens would be the same.

The worst part is that I feel like sometimes in some cases they have a point.

Some cultures have elements that just dont mesh with general western societies values. Take "Halal" slaughter of animals for example, I dont agree with it because it places unnecessary suffering onto the animal. I eat meat but I hope that the animal has a happy healthy life and then have a quick painless death. But I know plenty of people who just rally against halal on the grounds that its for "them" not because they understand what it is at all.

You try talking about elements of some cultures (like forced child marriage or a man being legally allowed to discipline his wife) that you dont agree with being brought to and endorsed in your country and people try to brand you as a bigot or a racist for not accepting their culture, I dont oppose "them" I'm against "that".

I think that theres almost a "you get one pass" way of thinking among conservatives so long as you stick to the talking points, act white and straight. They will accept a black man as long as he isnt gay, they will accept a gay man so long as he is white and not flamboyant and they will accept a woman so long as she is white and straight.

Leftists are already trying to fuck megacorps over, why would they try and placate them?
