They won't Prices are very clearly rising especially with groceries! INFLATION! |

Same goes for other imported items as I mentioned a while back, I buy the callets for baking at RD since you cannot find a decent priced high quality baking chip anywhere else and the price for that has also risen 50% year over year, I purchase certain items only at that place since you cannot find them elsewhere. Same goes for stuff like crab legs, Chilean seabass etc etc all have gone out of control pricing in the last six months. Even at Costco I purchase their store cut Chilean seabass portions because they are larger if you can find than RD and the price is lower. In the last year the price went from 17 a pound to now it is 27 a pound for their butcher cut portions. |

Deceptions such as manufacturing a crisis is used to gain power. Trump uses similar playbook as Hitler. Rioters who attack capitol are falsely praised as heroes. Before election, he exaggerates crime, immigration and inflation as crises. Democrats are blamed and lose election. After election, he purges opposition by falsely claiming emergency powers to fire government employees. @thirdperson We see strong fascist similarities right before our very eyes |

This is true in most recent years for certain, at least since 2017, but they are making a strong effort to spin the narrative 180 |

Just like getting handed a speeding ticket, there are far too many dopes whining at the cop because THEY got caught speeding. Some idiots even whine that the cops shouldn't be allowed to drive on the same roads they do! Many consider such fools as "trolls" Keep posting and KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, WSC!

It has started. Pretext to authoritarianism: Trump demands Republicans ‘kill’ the bipartisan bill that would give journalists greater protections. More authoritarian insanity and destruction likely!

So religious concepts have an enormous part in this discussion from every single angle. I wondered why the LDS media came out with a statement within moments of the event, well it did not take long to find out why.
Very true. For some reason understood by 8th graders, it's kool to demonize people who are different |

For the moment it is unclear to what extent the MAGA-morons across the nation on social media, cable news, and web media will be spinning the blame for this heinous tragedy on: - all Democrats - all gay and transgender people - all mainstream media, except Fox News of course - DEI - immigrants (but only Islamic and any people of color, of course!!) - Joe Biden - Gavin Newsom - Black Lives Matter - and Harvard University Leave anyone out? |
