    Yeah… Every time I mention the looming recession, this is the answer…

    “it’s just temporary”

    We are fucking temporary, you dumbasses!

      If you think about it, butter is actually the freshest cheese you can get. So, it’s really just super fresh cheese sticks.

          I think you have some faulty logic there. Fried eggs would be the same as scrambled eggs or fried whipped eggs. It’s a different version of the same thing.

            Life begins at conception! Or before. A chicken fetus is a chicken, an unfertilized egg is a potential chicken fetus

    It’s weird they do this. Didn’t they say that communism is evil because famine and shit? Like look at China now. They are pretty much on top of their game and only growing bigger. They had a famine when trying to advance at break neck speeds, but they get shit for it.

    Meanwhile shock therapy in places like Russia that killed as many people as the holodomor (but also over a longer period of time) doesn’t get the same crap.

    What’s the significance of the amputated leg?

    As a metaphor I get it, but it seems to be a reference that I’m not getting.

      Could be paying an arm and a leg. He already paid with his leg, doesn’t realize that the arms next. Also why he’s still optimistic. Doesn’t realize that the worst of it hasn’t even happened yet. (Also the artist might have just not known how to draw him chained up like the rest with just one arm)

      Not sure, probably meant to indicate the MAGA is someone in need of care, someone on disability or a veteran. Someone who was directly impacted by maga decisions but still drinks the Kool-aid
