The same place you are: PERB
Even when the homes of my parents were occupied by the Nazis and then the Communists and the world lay in ruins around them, they still celebrated Christmas and the Holidays. You would have to be pretty pathetic to suggest that it is not possible to enjoy the season simply because of the economy. Jeez......
The meme was definitely lost on you. More importantly, it’s also literal: I don’t have family.

The general levels of education in both Canada and the USA are shocking.
Literacy is very bad, how many people, even on here, have actually read a book lately?
When was the last time you saw someone reading a book?
some of the stupidest people on the planet are well read, cause they have no real life experience, yet end up in power

edumacation doesn't just come from the library

or haven't you met a teacher or Prof lately?

yeah, those fuckers who keep going to the food bank, they really should quit being so pathetic

they should enjoy that can of spam at Christmas

fuck the economy!!






a great easily digestible look at myths about the economy by Robert Reich... how for the last 50 years the rich are increasingly leaving everyone behind in the US... and how, if Americans are upset with the direction of the country they should look to the rich instead of blaming the poor.

The 10 Biggest Myths About Our Economy

myths? like the rich now are worse than any other time in history?

any richer comparative to other eras?

the U.S., West had a short time after WW11, till about the 80's, where it got a bit more equitable

but the wealth disparity has always been there, the % of the middle class got larger, along with the ultra wealthy

it's not new, it's circular, just like with most of life

the good old days, yeah

the good old days are dependant on when you lived, not reality

Just like the fucking idiots in the Liberal party, just a couple of years ago, reality doesn't matter

told all their cult members

2020's was going to be the roaring 20's, like 100 yrs ago

remember those good old days when the economy didn't matter, just celebrate them!!!

you're living the good life now

Who is blaming poor people for anything?Reich is a long time Democratic political operative and supporter of Bernie Sanders. He's a professor, lawyer and a former Secretary of Labor. He's an intelligent and accomplished man who unfortunately lost his way over the years. In an October 2023 he wrote in an essay that Joe Biden was "shrewd, careful, and calibrated".
Hard to take him seriously after that.
I think his personal animosity towards Trump has caused him to go off the rails. That's a shame.
Does his dislike of Trump invalidate his book or other points he might make, or are you just trying to do a besmerching?

I can't take Reich seriously when he writes an essay in late 2023 characterizating Biden as mentally sharp and in charge. Obviously that wasn't true. Reich is either a poor judge of people's abilities or he was lying.
You missed my point but that's nothing new.

Dignity and class......something sorely lacking with today's political types
Carter will always be known as a super nice guy who was a terrible President. He barely beat Gerald Ford in 1976 and was crushed by Ronald Reagan in 1980. It was a landslide in which Reagan received 9 million more votes than Carter. Bad economic and energy policy along with a mishandling of the Iran hostage crisis meant Carter was a one and done President just like Joe Biden. Carter was the first incumbent Democrat president to be defeated since 1888. I salute both Carter and Biden. Nice guys do finish last. In both cases the American public said thanks but no thanks.

Yes, obvuously Reich is wrong about all the economics stuff hes done all his life because he supported Biden. Im pretty sure Carlesons lying about the fake votes on prime time hasn't stopped you watching his shit. Echo chamber.

Always liked Jimmy Carter. He came to Chalk River following the nuclear accident in 1952 to assist with the.clean up. He did make a mess of the situation in Iran though.
I worked on a Habitat for Humanity project with him in St James. He worked until he got heat stroke and had to go to hospital.
Can you imagine Trump doing anything like that!

You've made a number of claims, lets check the truth behind them-

1)Show us the scientifc study that had good controls for the horse paste that can conclude with a 95% confidence interval about Invermectin being effective against covid.

2)Show us the provable basis of the claim that there was a smear campaign agaInst Invermectin. The burden of proof would be high, but without it you could just say any old lie and expect people to believe you. ( which is exactly what your doing).

3)BIDEN ( did you look for counterfactuals like I asked?):
But an examination of the report reveals a glaring problem: Most of the sources reporters Annie Linskey and Siobhan Hughes relied on were Republicans. In fact, buried in the story, the reporters themselves acknowledged that they had drawn their sweeping conclusion based on GOP sources who, obviously, have an incentive to make comments that will damage Biden’s candidacy.

“Most of those who said Biden performed poorly were Republicans, but some Democrats said that he showed his age in several of the exchanges,” Linskey and Hughes conceded. The duo also noted that they had spoken to sources in the administration “who found no fault” with the way Biden conducted himself in meetings for which they were present.

4)The Ukraine war was supposed to be a 2 week special operation but is now close to three years in. There are aeveral reports that the first Ukrainian offensive was stymied by only having received 1/4 of the promised military hardware from 'allies'. So while its subjective who is winning, i definately wouldnt say it Russia or that Ukraine is loosing.

5)Who's Joe Scarbourough and Joy Ried? Why do I care about some righty networks ratings? Do they perpetually lie on Tv, or do they do actual journalism? Are they allowed to call themselves news or are they just info-tainment? *Do they check sources*?

Didnt you describe yourself as a centrist at one point? Looks like were just trying to be a wolf in sheeps clothing and play games to me. If thats the case you need a better suit.
Where did I say that ivermectin actually worked on covid? The issue was that after Joe Rogan touted the drug a lot of people believed it to be a potentially less invasive and dangerous option to use rather than take an unproven vaccine which did not actually work either. To counter this mainstream media outlets who receive a huge bundle of advertising money from Big Pharma (the ads where they spend more time describing the potential side effects than the actual benefits) DID launch a smear campaign on the drug fearing it might cut into their profits and continually referred to it as horse paste on air when it was actually considered a wonder drug that not only resolved large parasitic issues in the bovine field but had many effective human uses as well.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3043740/

It was anything but horse paste and won a Nobel Prize in 2015 but it worked about as well against covid as the basically untested vaccines which were minimally effective.

The Wall Street Journal article that detailed Joe Bidens mental capacity decline did NOT source its information from Republican sources. How the fuck would they know what was going on and if they had any inkling they would have been shouting it from the rooftops. It specifically says that they relied on "50 sources familiar with the operations to conceal or help the Presidents mental or physical state"

https://www.wsj.com/opinion/the-president-who-wasnt-there-joe-biden-woodrow-wilson-0baa843e

Its been obvious to anyone with any common sense that Biden has been mentally declining since his election in 2020 when they basically hid him in the basement for the entire election cycle and TPTB have been trying to hide it from the public for the entire 4 years of his Presidency with the capitulation of the mainstream media who have gone out of their way to protect him with the fear of an impending Trump Presidency. To deny that is not to believe what your own eyes have been watching for this time.....Nothing to see here ...as he mumbles incoherent phrases...unexpectedly bursts into fits of rage, stumbles up the plane stairs and walks like he is about to fall down at any second. Dementia is a bitch.
The article you probably saw was the one on CNN penned by well known Democrat spin doctor Oliver Darcy where he attempts to refute all the claims in the WSJ article and I will take the WSJ article authors word on this over a slimy backroom guy who spends most of his time trying to blackmail advertisers on Conservative news sites into withdrawing their advertising dollars from them. They are a far more reliable source than a desperate cable network whose rating have plunged below that of the Hallmark channel and are in a desperate attempt to remain relevant.

As for the Joe Scarborough/Joy Reid comment I am not certain whether or not that is a lame attempt at sarcasm/humor or you really are that ignorant. Think I will toss a coin on that one.
Note that you didnt refer to any of the easily provable clips in which the mainstream media edited out parts that were very relevant to the context but if you dig a bit you will find the actual quotes on YouTube if you search a bit.
eg. Dictator from Day One! Which they still use. What he actually said.


Happy New Year.

It's amazing how whenever MAGA trolls eventually get banned via this thread, another rises to take their place. Have to hand it to them, they have cult commitment.
OMG someone with a different opinion has invaded our safe space! We cannot have that! Help Mr Mod protect us. That sounds less like a Rottweiler and more like a Chihuahua. Geez you guys, just keep patting yourselves on the back and plugging your ears in this Democrat echo chamber as your party of choice ignores the reasons it lost the election but blames the voters and does absolutely no introspection as to why they lost.

It really is amazing that the same people who showed themselves to be completely out of touch, have been made fools of by Trump's win and are fixated on how everything Trump is bad, and everything left wing is just super duper, continue to show up here with their same talking points that are having them lose almost everywhere. The lack of introspection shows just how far into the cult they have crawled.

Its improving little by little. AOC took off the She/Her title. Now if only the Lefty Governors will stop blocking the deportation of illegals with murder records and MS-13 ties. You can only signal virtue so far before the natives get restless.

Governor's can't stop the federal government from doing their job. That's not how anything works.

This was a Reported Post. Let me say this so it’s clear that if you venture into any Political threads on Perb, Mods won’t come to your rescue. Threats of violence and other criminal acts are of course excluded and Mods will react accordingly.

Carry on.
