Let's kill two birds with one stone.
Can we start a GoFundMe for the purchase of Tik Tok to be ran by these LGBTQ+ groups?
Then they wouldn't need donors...
Hear me out on this:
I'll take urgent threat to our democracy, our freedoms, and our position as leader of the free world for $500, Alex.
I cut out Amazon completely after ordering from them four to five times a week. Heres how I did it:
(Many people who do buy from Amazon immediately donate it after they're done.)
If you can't find it used or local, use eBay! They have free shipping, an ethical CEO that doesn't make their employees piss into jars, and they are MUCH cheaper than Amazon 9/10 (not taking into account the prime membership).
Buy directly from the vendor and look for promo codes if 1 or 2 don't fit your lifestyle.
If John Barron needs help he can tap in James Donald Bowman.
Oops I mean James David Hamel.
Sorry I meant J.D. Vance.
From Junk Drawer Vance himself “Any old D name would have done, so long as it wasn’t Donald,”
Hope his passport doesn't expire before 2026, actually wait I hope it does!
Agreed. That's my motto for everything in life.
So if it added ".06 to the cost of a four dollar hamburger" to pay people a living wage, why are we not doing this everywhere?
Is it millionaire greed? I bet it's millionaire greed.
Brad Close, CEO of NFIB (National Federation of Independent Businesses). NFIB speeds more money lobbying to keep people poor (124 million) than than take in each year (113 million).
Brad makes over $480/hr (or 1 million dollars a year) to lead a company that tells the government you shouldn't make more than $7.25/hr. He must be 66x smarter and more productive than those making minimum wage.
That's just one example, look up Serv-Safe and the National Restaurant Association. It's not an accident these workers are poor, it's on purpose.
The only time I have agreed with Felon Musk.
I'm pretty sure I watched a very persuasive infomercial from our president on why we should buy them.
This is obviously due to the liberal media brainwashing consumers not to buy them.
OR...
It's produced by a Nazi.
It could be that this vehicle has averaged a major recall every 60 days since release.
Gas pedal detaches itself for spontaneous fully automated joy rides.
It looks like what happened if oops all polygons fucked a roll of tinfoil.
It rusts, the panels fly off, and if you take it through a car wash it'll total it.
It hasn't lived up to any of the hype or range estimates stated.
The trailer hitch is held on by the polycarbonate (plastic that went to college) frame, so enjoy causing a massive traffic fatality while towing (even within the recommended towing capacity specs).
It's 14 times more dangerous than the Ford Pinto which was on the market 3x longer and became synonymous with explosions.
Lastly, it's become a way of explicitly telling the world I have a $100,000 truck and a $10 brain.
Is this the same Bayer company that made the Zyklon B pesticide used in Adolf Hitler's gas chambers?
I am shocked, that they wouldn't warn consumers that their products cause cancer and then would want to cover it up?
Shocked, I tell you.
You are once again 100% incorrect. Also, the horse is already dead why are you still beating it?
The rest of Europe is NOT doing much better.
However you won't respond to facts, won't argue a point intelligently, but you'll cry wolf at being faced with data and discourse that shows you don't understand what you are talking about at the most basic level.
Once again here's some data supporting my claim (still waiting for you to produce ANYTHING to support any of your claims) that you won't read, consider, or understand:
(Find me the "rest of Europe" on any chart or article)

You have yet to counter ANY facts with anything other than your feelings, gatekeeping, or chastising and accusing me of not knowing what I'm talking about.
Call me a bad debater and spin your positions until you get dizzy, it won't change the fact that you aren't operating in reality and your feelings aren't more important than actual tangible data that is EASILY obtained through a quick Google search of how this problem actually gets solved by other countries.
Asylums aren't housing, they are a form of incarceration that objectively doesn't work. I don't understand why this concept is so hard for you to grasp?
It's really simple:
Treat people how you'd like to be treated should you ever be in their situation.
It sounds like you have joined the sunshine and rainbows team saying that rehabilitation and mental health counseling is needed. Welcome, we're glad to have you!
I firmly agree, so let's chat about homelessness. Something you have more opinions on rather than a factual understanding of what causes homelessness and equally as important, what lifts people out.
If you were homeless right now, would you prefer to be locked up in an Asylum or have a chance to have a roof over your head to get a job and get back on your feet?
See how easy that is?
Stop using whataboutism to call many of them criminals (which you said), and dehumanizing them (which by the way was the original post in the article).
It's okay to be wrong, heck it's even okay to be stupid. It's NOT okay to marginalize an entire group of vulnerable citizens while they sleep on the street and you're comfortable behind your keyboard.
P.S. Your feelings and opinions are not a credible source, sorry bud.
"You can't point to Sweden or Finland as answers either, because they have the highest per-capita drug deaths of other euro nations."
Dis you? Are you the 10 second Tom from 50 first dates that just forgets shit as soon as he clicks post? Lol.
I'm quoting you and you're calling it a straw man?
You're tripping over yourself to play the victim. Just go back under the bridge you troll.
Not high just someone that uses eBay and has had good results. There's no perfect option in capitalism.
"Approximately 71% of eBay purchases come from listings that offer free shipping."
I've had great results and I chose to share them, what's your suggestion then?
