@AkademiksTV Stupidest shit I’ve ever heard. Did Karmelo stab him and kill him or nah? Oh yeah? Then shut your stupid ass up Charleston. Karmelo got justice, that’s how it works moron.

@X_fightss Stupid bitch 😂 play stupid games win stupid prizes

@paulspadenun @andrew_kal @RedHeadS0phia @SNYGiants And you’re too woke to acknowledge you’re not Einstein. Always find it funny when people use the generalization of Trump supporters being stupid. Really just a protectionary mechanism to keep your feeble little worldview intact

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats Yeah I understand that, but it’s a psyche in my opinion. It was a necessary step - this type of shakeup is sometimes required to see the overall picture of intertwined economies. Painful? Sure. But short term L for a long term win. And illuminating at minimum.

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats Agree there too - but the point isn’t to compete with China bar for bar on their manufacturing prowess. It’s to realign for the next several decades and refocus on American ingenuity, rather than purely cheap consumption. This will become increasingly important as AI advances

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats There’s our disagreement, you believe globalism is the way - I don’t. And that doesn’t mean I’m advocating for either of those, but countries should retain domestic strength for their own good. There are certainly industries where outsourcing makes sense, and many that don’t

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats The only thing they do “well” is stealing IP and exploiting labor, which isn’t healthy for anyone else’s economy except theirs. A fundamental fact you seem to avoid

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats You keep focusing on the menial items, which really wasn’t the focus of this. The next frontier is AI, semiconductors and data centers. The US blanket tariffing also allows us to rebuild domestic production with Intel etc and start to wean from TSEM. China does nothing better.

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats This trend had to reverse, one way or another. You can disagree with the means, but I’d be surprised if you disagreed with the end. You’re reasonable enough, appreciate the conversation.

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats There is no such thing as a free market in the modern world. Find me one. Every single economy has regulation which = market limitation. I’m a capitalist, through and through - but I also recognize that US leadership has traded our future generations for cheap product with China

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats Yeah if we were starting at 0 you’d be correct, but we’re not. You’re acting as if infrastructure was not in place that was recently outsourced in the last 1-2 decades. You wish to oversimplify to fit your narrative, continue to do so if you’d like. Doesn’t make it correct

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats But they don’t - I could find you tons of dissenting opinions, but you’re clearly not looking for them. Depending on your nation, that’s probably due to your reliance on middle eastern oil. If you’re in Europe, enough said. Your leaders are idiots and went hardcore ESG.

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats You’re getting way too granular. Yes, you’re right that we wouldn’t produce menial items. Companies have the ability to adjust. Temu is a great example. Started warehouses inside the US to avoid this, which did what? Created domestic jobs. There are benefits you refuse to see

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats “Every economist agrees” is a ridiculous statement and you know it. Economists hardly agree on anything 🤣 So to be clear - tariffs ok, just not blanket and not for the intention of bringing back jobs? Got it. We have a difference in values. You want cheap, not a strong America

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats Interesting. You do realize a blanket tariff is exactly that - protectionary for domestic production. Not inflationary if you’re able to source internally, at most short term until local supply ⬆️ Domestic jobs NEED to come back. The thought that we shouldn’t is retarded.

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats Tariffs are not a new tax. You fundamentally misunderstand the basis of what they are used for. I’d implore you to look deeper. They ARE a tax if your country relies entirely on imports, which is bad for domestic jobs. That’s precisely what they’re designed to quell or flip.

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats Let’s talk more about “retard land” since you mentioned tariffs. How do you feel about the tariffs that Biden kept in place from Trump’s first term? I’m assuming Biden is also in retard land? US increase in prices was not due to middle eastern dependence, but global market.

@StylishSlurper @ML3democrats When did I even reference J6? He hasn’t delivered on affordability, but how did Joe do? Yeah thought so. Iran was a necessary step, especially after the Democrats emboldened Iran multiple times in Obama and Biden’s term. Tariffs you just simply don’t comprehend

@LeaversvsTaker @ML3democrats While I actually agree, the Dems are so bad it does constitute some tribalism. The platforms couldn’t be more different at this point. Always politics all around, but only one side actually wants the destruction of the family unit and American values. And it’s not the right.
