- JD Vance did not grow up poor! His mom was a nurse who made a good salary! In his book he even notes his family’s household income was $100k+/yr! Not a single person read the damn bookThis post is unavailable.
- Remember when every single person in Trump1 said that he was a lunatic and they were doing shit like stealing papers off his desk and ignoring his orders to stop him from ruining the country? They weren’t lyingWhy is trump2 so much more insane than trump1? The first one everyone went into hysterics about but was largely fine, but trump2 feels like he's going out of his way to prove the hysterics right
- I don’t think college-educated Americans realize how different the lives and values of the non-educated are. They have triple (!) the divorce rate for example (22% vs 60%)one quiet class signifier i notice increasingly often is having non-divorced parents
- All the Chinese exchange students at my university were indeed absolutely shocked that the cops gave tickets to homeless people They constantly asked why the homeless weren’t being thrown in prison insteadThis is not a drill: Chinese people are learning that we fine homeless people. I REPEAT, THEY HAVE LEARNED THE UNITED STATES FINES HOMELESS PEOPLE FOR BEING HOMELESS.
- My memory of 2016: 1. Everyone, including Republicans, thought at every second of the race there was no way the American people would be stupid enough to elect Trump as President. You have to remember it was like Britney Spears or Flavor Flav running1.

- HILLBILLY ELEGY is not about how the Appalachian underclass is poor and suffering from globalism. Vance argued that despite tons of government subsidies and plenty of opportunities for work they are poor and addicted to drugs due to their cultural and moral failingsJD Vance did not grow up poor! His mom was a nurse who made a good salary! In his book he even notes his family’s household income was $100k+/yr! Not a single person read the damn book
- It’s incredibly annoying that Biden has actually been a really good President and everyone has to pretend that he sucks for some reason
- In retrospect, the killing of the Minnesota legislators that was expressly approved by the regime was when we should have known it was overFrom one of the most sober-minded friends I know: "We are so fucked."
- MAHA is a movement designed to make Americans feel good about eating a burger, fries, and a soda
- Wow, a whole 4% annualized return on investment even before tax, interest, and maintenance costs. What a dealThis post is unavailable.
