I pay a lot of taxes. Those taxes are, primarily, used for the common good (schools, health care, roads, infrastructure etc.) Whatever is left of my paycheck I can spend as I see fit.
I doubt cutting taxes will help y’all. Putting taxes to good use will
I believe it works so well on those who are in a bad financial situation because whatever little money they make, they want to/need to keep as much of it as possible.
That makes them an easy target of “we’re going to lower taxes.” While of course only doing it for the wealthy and screaming the left wants to give your hard earned money to lazy people, immigrants, sex changes or whatever marginalized group is the flavour of the year to attack.
I don’t know why it’s uncomfortable for women here, but I assume they would feel that way whether they revealed their gender or not
I never said you were in favour of it, another assumption you’re making. You asked why the downvotes and the answer is your strawman argument(s), and being against geoblocking and pro privacy isn’t mutually exclusive.
Poor strawman mate. You don’t have to be “a geoblocking fan,” you can despise it, while also not enabling privacy invasive firms.
Somewhat similar. My grandmother (mother’s mother,) was not a good person. Racist, rude, cheated on my grandfather, threatened my mother to not tell when she got caught. I could go on and on. But when she got several strokes she could not live on her own. My uncle berated my mom for eventually sticking her in a home, he of course lives in a different town and didn’t do shit to assist. I never went to her funeral. She was a vile person before the strokes. I met her once after and that’s the only time I heard her laugh, she was mentally like a kid again. Sad to see what she could have been. Anyways, don’t let people try to make you feel guilty for not enabling terrible behaviour. They made their choices and they’ve had a lifetime to learn to be decent people. They chose not to.
Apparently they just posted from other instances
Unrelated, but has anyone noticed that almost all posts and comments have at least one downvote?
And now there’s infinity for Lemmy so it feels right as well
What’re they doing in Costa Rica?
