due to the fuckass limpdick way the US has setup it’s federal system, the answer to this is the same as it is to most “how is X in the USA” questions…it depends.

in many parts of the country, individual teachers have very wide leeway to pass/fail people (and are heavily incentived to just pass anyone)

Hopefully we fall sooner rather than later, for the rest of the worlds sake

isnt it interesting how everyone has a hierarchy/gatekeeping.

for example, pedophiles like epstein were disgusted with pedophiles like trump. because epstein apparently had a rule about them atleast having had their first period, but trump had no such restrictions

i completely forgot about thor…don’t recall her doing much proper action though (the movie was fucking terrible, i try to forget it in general).

guess i should have said “any action flicks since star wars”

dont recall natalie portman ever being in an action flick

everyday that goes by that these people arent assassinated surprises me, i’m not talking trump (he’s obviously a braindead puppet by now) but the sociopaths running the show and making obvious ratfuck moves behind the throne that have got to be stepping on so many toes…

the thing that gets me with all these anti-immigrant types is…they also refuse to spend the $ to improve/stabilize these peoples countries so less feel the need to immigrate. to the point where they would rather soend even more $ trying to punish/keep em out than it would take to stabilize.

not sure why we call these stupid fucks “conservatives”…they’re not conserving anything, it’s just regression and self-punishment

seriously, anyone who travels extensively for work or whatever else know exactly how the USA is setup (let alone just reads a fucking history book or two).

united my ass, it’s a bunch of disconnected fiefs extorting their working class. where the locals have caught on the local barons price out their poors and ship in cheaper labor from the global south (or just shift it overseas and import).

yup…though there are large sections of america that are completely locked down in this respect. places where there are no local/co-ops etc. just faceless chain after faceless chain as far as the eye can see

us military force projection doesn’t mean shit when a couple drones can cripple their navy.

USA as a whole is one bay of pigs fiasco away from civil war itself

some people know only the ratrace

it is funny seeing americans complain about not being able to eat like disgusting slobs though

seriously, US is a paper tiger with it’s navy neutralized.

eh, when there’s large discrepancies it’s more so about making $ on the swings up until the event passes. it’s called arbitrage, it’s not gambling if you know the actual likely result…then it’s just mathing out the risk/reward and win/loss ratios

idiocracy is meant to portray the end-result of our society, the intelligent evil people eventually get outnumbered and overrun by the stupids. stupid people (people in general really) tend to be well meaning, when they’re not fighting over limited resources. it takes dogma/propaganda to get people to want to go kill X group…

a society of stupids whose needs are largely serviced by a slowly failing nanny/bread+circus state would probably end up fairly benevolent

I wish we lived in idiocracy…sadly we are mid-downfall not end-stage downfall

it’s a good word, like fuck

the Don’t Say the Word campaign was unironically the start to all this anti-woke stuff (well…that and Murdoch being allowed to own like half of all media), that campaign was so forced and retarded. (i am pulling this completely out of my ass, just lined up nicely in my head)

kids will always call each (insert medical word for slow/retard/mentally disabled), they’re kids…that’s what they do.

trying to ban those words is an utter waste of effort, especially when there are a dozen more useful uses for our time as society when it comes to improved child-rearing

the US is making it more easy than ever for China to set itself up as the new world reserve currency/police/center of stability.

china works towards china’s self interests, they’re predictable but ultimately easy for the west to respond to if they stop ratfucking for a split-second.

you can’t say remotely the same for the US, the US is an abusive partner that smacks you around for 4 years then gaslights you things are different (while still smacking you around) for 4 years, repeat

john wick has more to it than that, come on

isnt that an issue with social media as a whole, most people using social media are idle rich or otherwise low-skilled/desk job types with loads of free time on their hands to be on social media.

the proper working class tends to use social media minimally, generally just using it to keep in contact/up-to-date with extended family
