  • I have yet to actually see any numbers giving this statement any sort of credibility.

    Kamala got more votes than any democratic candidate has ever gotten, how does play into the whole “they didn’t vote”? The reality is though, that Trump was much better at getting people to vote, both by number, but also by location. Trump spent 4 years terrifying people into thinking if they didn’t vote for him, the democrats would murder babies everywhere and unleash millions of rapists upon the country. Obviously none of that was true, but enough people thought it was to terrify them into voting, because they’ve spent the past 18-50 years being brainwashed by fascists.

    People voted, but fascist propaganda won.



  • I used to smoke a pack/day. Sure it sucks not getting to smoke for 10 hours, but it’s seriously not like they’re going to die. It doesn’t hurt them, they just need to get their shit together and take a little bit of responsibilty for their dumb habbits. My view on this hasn’t changed since I smoked.

    Smokers can be some of the most inconsiderate, self centered douche bags in this world. I thought so too when I was a smoker. You know what sucks when you’re dying for a smoke in an area where it’s either prohibed, or just plain fucking rude? Smelling some douche nozzle’s cigarette. It makes the need 10 times worse.

    My solution is to not accomodate the addicts. They chose to smoke, they can choose to stop if they actually want to.

    The whole 67 thing has really outed every older generation as just as bad as the ones they themselves complained about as teenagers.

    The whole point of it was always that it has no point, and y’all get weirdly mad about it, just like every single generation has always been mad at those “damn kids”. The truth is, it’s just as dumb as troll comics, asdf movies, “whatcha say” skits, or loss.




  • Most people still save up for retirement in Denmark, but you also get paid a monthly retirement wage by the government. That way, even if you’ve been unable to work for an extended period of your life, or some other reason, you won’t be straight up abandoned by the government. It’s however not enough to live comfortably on, so anyone who is member of a union at a company that has made an agreement with a union, which is by far most, will have some money put aside for a retirement account. I have a pretty good contract, and pay 2% of my wage, while the company pays 11%. This is something my union negotiated a long time ago. When I retire I get a payout from that account, while also getting the government retirement wage.
