That’s about as logical as the tariffs themselves. Everything is normal here, then.

…multiplied by one? What.

Right? Whoever wrote this headline is like… new, or something. Republicans have been doing this for decades and it’s explicitly written out in project 2025.

This is not a shitpost. Politics need to stop leaking into shitposting and meme subs.

I’m autistic and trying to figure out if autism is an at-risk minority group. It doesn’t help that I was extremely vocal on Reddit about how much I hate Trump and Musk. I deleted my account, but Reddit is now a fascist platform and would likely turn over my posts and email address to this administration without a second thought.

I’m not sure what to do. I’m not sure if I could even leave at all, with my debilitating anxiety and trauma.

Washington State. My deductible is $600. It’s income based, so my low rate requires me to make very little. That is fine with me, since I have no desire to work more than 32 hours a week and I’ve learned how to live cheaply.

The insurance my job offered me is $100 a month with a $4,500 deductible, which is absolutely awful in comparison.

No, it’s neither universal nor garbage. You didn’t bother to read my comment. If you had, you would’ve seen me mention how I pay $30.19 a month for health insurance. That is a fantastic deal. The ACA works well for people like me, it just has a limited scope and sends tax payer dollars to greedy health insurance companies.

It’s not universal, it’s based on income. When I signed up for the ACA I put down my income at $3,000 a month, which makes my monthly bill $30.19 a month. If my average income for the year exceeds $3,000, I owe the difference to the government.

My small income works for me because I live alone and don’t have any dependents. But if I had kids I would need to double or triple my income to support them, in which case my monthly ACA payment would also increase. It’s possible for people with families to be priced out of the ACA.

It’s definitely not universal.

Last Week Tonight did a story about dollar stores:

Yeah, they’re as bad as you’d expect.

Fair enough. People are fatigued by the constant barrage of political posts, I just figured there were rules against this sort of thing. I’m new to Lemmy and still figuring out how to even view the rules in the voyager app.

Does that list include the same political posts that have infested damn near every other sub in existence? I go to shitpost subs for silliness, not more of the same crap we get everywhere.

This does NOT belong in the sub.
