cant believe i have to say this, but stop being racist towards russian citizens
they did nothing wrong, the government is at fault, stop telling them to die
I find it so funny the ONE green stock is United Healthcare 🤣
A GOP congresswoman who has been “missing” for the past six months has finally been found — she had been living at a memory care home "after having been found wandering lost and confused"
Why are right wingers so obsessed with forcing Canada and Mexico into becoming usa states lol
They did some interesting redrawing of some areas...
total abomination
the fact that its all blue
Some are also just the way they already are
They eliminate Oklahoma
I'm just confused 😭
It looks like to the right of the line everything stayed together
Except maybe Kentucky and west Virginia got cut somehow
west virginia has eaten parts of kentucky, virginia, and pennsylvania it seems
loving the US Oligarchy
with President Elon Musk
For what reason would she need to be expelled for anyway????
Raising concerns about Elon Musk’s interference in US Politics
Like her disagreements with his “ideas” (which resulted in said budget bill not passing) means she should be expelled
and apparently they need term limits not (ironic when it benefits them)
B R U H
Fr
Literally, forget the people of Connecticut, Elon dislikes her, so she gotta go!
🙄 the nerve
https://x.com/acyn/status/1870899088633610384?s=46 Oh he HATES elon
Not sure if it’s for the right reasons though 😭
The President Musk meme should never die
Wtf Is trump on lol
So he wants to annex parts of Panama and the Danish Realm
and make canada the 51st state
and parts of Northern and Central Mexico
Bros got some crazy ideas
Problem with wanting to annex Greenland, they don't speak English there
Trying to make that a state definitely not a good idea
Also in general, taking over random land sounds sus
God i hate trump so much
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-house-report-finds-matt-gaetz-violated-law-with-sexual-misconduct-drug-use-2024-12-23/ and the crowd .... already knew this
I'm so ready for him to out the rest of congress
Its actually pretty beneficial for the US to own Greenland
Question is... would they agree to it
You know what's beneficial to the American people? Helping them own homes and giving them fair wages and making billionaires pay more taxes.
And isn’t bringing Canada to the US like a bad idea from the conservative pov?
Since it brings a lot of liberal voters from Ontario, BC, etc
I thought Trump was going to be a president that brought peace 😢
I was menaing to respond to this but yeah I don't get why people are like that. People forget to separate the country's government with the country's people
Not liking the country shouldn't mean hating the people that live there
If that was the case, many people would hate half of the world due to the insane amount of corrupted countries there are
But obviously that logic is terrible. People need to learn to separate country from people and realize that we're human beings still
I'm sorry but I really just can't get over how i was gaslit for the last year or 2 by people saying they were voting Trump because of gas and grocery prices and ever since trump got elected he said he can't bring down grocery prices and is just gonna start taking over a bunch of
I didn't even think Harris would bring down prices let alone Trump
Of course it's hard to bring them down
Luigi pleads not guilty. This is going to be interesting
why would you ever think that 😭
Sarcasm
mb the emoji had me
He thinks a jury will acquit or nullify him. A guilty plea would eliminate that possibility since there wouldn't be trial proceedings
:/
love being on uncle facebook
yk h||itler|| also reshaped his nation and the world
Not in a good way of course
Not even close to being in a good way. It was an extremely horrible way
wtf is going on with the drones i keep hearing stuff
i also heard people saying there’s orbs or something now ?? 😭 idk it all screams fake to me
i can’t
i would buy that
||/hj||
oh happy christmas guys
Just don’t look at person of the year for TIME in 1938 🤗
Hitler did that when he was in power to took surrounded countrys around Germany
Like Hitler
I keep trying to put Hitler as a gift and nothing happens
Oh lol
Yep and Trump wants to be him
Like how trump will do
I'd buy this
exactly my point, he's even suggested that hitler's an influence to him
Facts
I have a video in mind
Thanks to Lumen for sponsoring! To save 15% go to http://lumen.me/leeja and start improving your health today! | Yesterday Trump held a rally at Madison Square Garden featuring a new level of bigotry and hate. It recalled scenes of a N*zi sympathizer rally at the same location in 1939, the year Germany invaded Poland. Many were scandalized when ...
What a fucking joke
Elon definitely lying on this one
I needed high school very much
If he's talking about college, depends on what you want to be and how you use your time in college
See im an oddball - high school was SHIT and college actually helped me
Like, college is likely not necessary if you are going to school for "Gender studies"
I could be wrong but where could anyone work at with a gender studies degree?
If you're trying to be a doctor, lawyer, etc. I would recommend college
Anything that requires major qualifications
Nowadays it's not the degree that instantly gets you the job, experience is what employers recommend the most to have
I hated high school too
Hey dont dog pile gender studies- i WISH i minor in gender studies, i went to a luncheon with students from women and gender studies and i learned so much they were awesome
I'm just not sure what you do career wise for gender studies
They would go to DC occasionally to listen to congress and protest for human rights
Ive found that its mostly for teaching and activists
I just want to find a career that pays the bills
Protesting will be a side gig for me
Fair but someone majoring in gender studies doesnt make then less than you /gen
True, however when people bring up college being a scam, it's generally something like "nobody uses gender studies"
Which is unfortunate honestl bc most companies wont higher you then 😭 like where tf am j suppose to get experience if you wont give me a job
College isn't necessarily a "scam", its just not for everybody
Oh dont get me wrong college is A SCAM but when you get to learn about something you want its a bit possitive
People shouldnt take out a whole ass mortage /j to pay for college
The amount of people get into debt cuz of college is RIDICULOUS
Fr, I asked my brother that when trying to get my first IT job and he recommended job shadowing but thankfully I ended up finding my 1st IT job
Without having to job shadow
Nice? /gen idk much about IT
True, its super expensive so I didn't bother with college cause I didn't know what I wanted to major in to begin with
The scam isnt the learning part its the paying part imo
So fair my advice to people who dont know what to major should maybe do a trade school
Cuz there you actually get to learn a skill a the very least
IT is a very broad thing but I'm in an entry level job that pays $20 an hour. So far I've had to plug in monitors, badge readers, etc.
Damn NICE
The technical name for the job is "Field service technician"
Its a contract job unfortunately but it got me into the door
Yeah trade schools are recommended by me as well, even Home Depot is recommending it (which isn't surprising)
There's apparently a trade gap that is trying to be closed
There a gap everywhere needing to be closed
True
Thank you!
I hope it works out well for you!
Thanks! So far every job is a dead end for me 😭 idefk what i wanna do but thats a topic for a different channel
The thing is that type of degree is normally meant to be combined with another degree. This is where right-wing talking points get it wrong.
For example, if you study law and want a focus in women's rights, when a gender studies degree would be ideal for getting alongside a law degree
Obviously, those that study only gender studies will really struggle, because that's not really what the degree is meant for. I actually don't think people typically study only gender studies (I don't know anyone that has?)
But it does piss me off to see this subject stigmatized and even banned in some places. It's meant to elevate people who want to put a focus on gender in a field that already has plenty of jobs
“So the MAGA base has started punching back at the opportunistically right-leaning tech oligarchs for allegedly co-opting government policy to import submissive workers to undercut Americans on price but Indian CEOs are…
I try not to get angry online. But sometimes I can't help myself. I'm angry now.
Let me break it down for you.
MAGA succeeded in 2024 by bringing disparate groups together into a coalition.
One of the key issues binding that coalition was the idea that unchecked, illegal
MAGA in shambles 
beautifully written
well done to whomever wrote THAT 💜👏
Not even surprised
How many braincells does someone need to not have to think the world's richest man is on their side?
this has to be fake 😭😭😰
Nope it's real
You don’t want meritocracy. You want DEI for white people.
Jan 19 is when tic tolk will be banned
Dangg because of his skin coler ughhh what she needs to know is that this country was colonized by us not white people but Irish German British Russian all of the countries from the other side of the pond and that also includes indian and any of the asian countries and sadly African people where taken not by there will and brought to America, mind you had people here already but I guess we pretend they don't exist 😭
America is about to be south Korea 2.0
And he wants people to work as technicians but doesn't want us to learn bra
Do You Think The Ban Will Go Through?

It’s really unfortunate how cute JD Vance’s cookie making video was with his daughter. I have no doubt the man loves his family but goddamn is that really unfortunate for centrists who still think he’s harmless.
law school, professor, author, social work, public health, sociology, hr
do you mean north korea
its not about what degree you have its who you know, job experience, recommendations, cover letters, and portfolios/ proof of prior work
realizing you said part of that my bad
Yeah I had a feeling gender studies is combined with other degrees
it would've been strange to just only have gender studies and nothing else
well what i said isn't combined with other degrees necessarily you can go to law school with any undergraduate degree
My god not them calling themselves autism capital and then using the r slur
yeah that's called reclaiming
like idk if they actually are autistic or not but someone can be autistic and say the r slur lol
Ig so i just dont like people using it so freely cuz my parents use it and use it derogatory especially at me
but if someone's autistic they can use it? no?
Ig so i just personally dont
As a person with autism, I refrain from using it but I don't mind other people using it
You guys get the R pass from me
At first I didn't even know it was a slur just because it's still super common to hear these days
that's not a thing
The n word pass is a thing but the r word pass isn't?
Well I guess in general, slurs shouldn't be used
that isn't a thing either😭
Ah, must be made up then
Thats not a real thing either bud 😭
just bc one person who's allowed to say it says it doesn't affect them doesn't mean it doesn't cause immense hurt and pain to someone else
Its just a joke i believe ppl say
I watched a YT video of some guy handing out "n word passes" at school
It said "Willy Wonka Golden N word pass" on it 💀
But yeah nah I don't use slurs even though I can reclaim the R word
I'd rather not use it for obvious reasons
well it depends on who you hang out with, like i choose not to be friends with or talk to people who say that word and aren't autistic so i don't hear it
My mom says it unknowingly that it is a slur, I should probably remind her but it doesn't really hurt my feelings when she says it
If someone says it with a true intent to being ableist, that's a whole different story. Sometimes people use the word to replace the word "stupid" and don't actually have the intent to make fun of people with mental disabilities
But then again, I don't think I'll fully know if they are being ableist or not when they say it
Vivek and Elon briefly talking about white Americans the way white Americans talk about everyone else has the entire Republican coalition fractured and in disarray.
Vivek literally got rich by doing a rug pull on the stock market using his mom’s medical certificates to push a fake drug.
Vivek and his entire family are leeches on our country. They should be DEPORTED back to India.
@stevenmackeyman The reason I’m in America along with so many critical people who built SpaceX, Tesla and hundreds of other companies that made America strong is because of H1B.
Take a big step back and FUCK YOURSELF in the face. I will go to war on this issue the likes of which you cannot
Elon is crashing out 
this divorce is so messy i love it😭
Yep lamo
I am sorry but vivek ramaswamy is a racist nepo baby and a s*um bag
Wanna make usa another india
these people needs to go
They are the worst
And also elon’s pup
He needs to be deported
We didn’t even make it to the inauguration. DOGE may be dead on arrival 
MAGA has one discussion about policy in 8 years and it results in a civil war
i miss kamala harris so much
I’m not the biggest fan of Kamala Harris, but I really do wish she won
I’m just so angry that people traded their rights for gas prices
this.
If things hit the fan, they'll switch over
I'm sure they will
I don't blame the voters that voted for Trump, I don't like him but I see where the ones whom voted for him in good faith come from
Also he campaigned harder than Kamala did, he was sure to catch up and win because Kamala's efforts weren't nearly enough with campaigning
right and its not even like trump would fix the economy or anything. economists literally said trump being president will be detrimental for our economy
how do u vote for trump in good faith?
Some people vote for certain policies that they find most important than others
The most important to Trump voters was the economy
I don't imagine every trump voter falling in the category of being a bad faith voter
Voting Trump in good faith is 99.9% of the time being misinformed or ignorant
Couldn’t have said it better
Not to defend a politician but she also had way less time than trump (i blame biden)
My parents def were, well at least my dad was, my mom just tends to follow what he does. My dad is a huge anti trans person and it pisses me off
And those people are grossly misinformed as Trump's economic policies are inherently inflationary
Trump's tariffs will raise the prices of groceries and electronics.
Anyone who does at least minimal research before voting a canidate(real research, not reading off bias websites) would have not voted for Trump.
But Republicans tend to not be as smart and educated so they are less likely to be critical to their party by doing actual research
Trump said it himself that "he loves the uneducated"
Exactly, his stubborn ass didn’t drop out of the race soon enough
the people wanted any kind of change and that’s it. they didn’t want the status quo and vibes (which is what the democrats were banking on)
Yeah bc Trump ran on being “anti establishment” (despite being a billionaire)
if that’s the case, neither major party should’ve gotten votes as both parties suck, cannot be redeemed, and work against the common people’s interests . (potential bias here: after the election, i have threw myself into the leftist side of instagram and bluesky because i talked to and met a true lefty for the first time…but i don’t want to drink the kool aid and see the world as irredeemable and need to have a full blown revolution before anything gets better)
I mean, voting democrat is our best viable option (sadly), but the 2 party system does suck yeah
the lesser of two evils doctrine ain’t cutting it anymore, especially when it comes to people’s rights.
besides what matters is the stuff you do outside of a once every 4 years presidential election (which we ALL need to learn)
You haven’t missed anything yet.
rest in peace jimmy carter
My goat jimmy carter is gone
RIP former president Jimmy Carter 💔
RIP Jimmy Carter
RIP Jimmy Carter
Thread Archive Notice
Good evening, we will be archiving this thread sometime on the 1st January, 2025, and will be creating a new Politics thread which welcomes both US and wider Global political discussions.
We have decided to move threads as this one was originally for the 2024 US General Elections which have now concluded (Presidency of Donald Trump, GOP Majorities in the House and Senate, mostly GOP Governors)
We will post the new thread link closer to the time here, prior the channel being archived.
The two oldest living presidents are now the incumbent president and the president elect
semantically speaking the oldest living president is president biden atm 😭
and itll be trump once he returns to office
?
I mean wait till Trump gets back I’m office 
Then you will really miss her
OHH 😭 yeah, i think lots of us will
okay as long as its replaced with an equivalent im good
And the funny thing is gas prices won't change
I wonder there is a age limit to even be president
FDR served 3 terms
It's only two tho
Off topic but do you think Trump would not want taylor to make music
Exactly, and if u took one Econ class, you would know that gas prices are not controlled by the president, but the global economy bc it’s arbitrary 😭
BTW would taylor still make music because the future president doesn't like her
Would he try not to make her not do any music?
Actually, there’s multiple factors I forgor 😭
Oooo
Well little do they know us humans are running out of fossil fewls
