>I live in the UK and see nothing of this promised land, on the contrary my life is quite shitty, I'm barely making the ends meet

I think the point missed by a lot of people is that the immigrants are experiencing even worse lives and living conditions. Even after they immigrate.

Also, the whole "they took err jerbs" thing, really just spits in the face of economic theory and ...idk... Reality? Jobs exist because of demand for them and that demand goes up as more people join your society. Jobs aren't being "taken " from anyone. It's not like there's some imaginary pool of jobs that once they're gone they're gone.

Now, caveat, it's more complex than that but this whole notion of jobs being "stolen" is just a false narrative used to stoke the fires of infighting amongst us proles while the rich laugh at the top.

Maybe Chinese millennials are more hard working ~~cooler~~ than us American ones?

Dude definitely has some type of Alzheimer's or Dementia going on. That's on top of how much of an idiot he already was and is.

So that tracks.

Yeah except I would disagree with your interpretation of that text in the modern day context. I don't believe it supports that.

Are you fucking dumb?

You have to be dumb to vote Trump and think he'd do anything but condone and aid the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Goddamnit, I know you're probably a troll or maybe just some misaligned and ignorant fool who doesn't deserve me shitting on them but like ... Come the fuck on.

Can't decide if you're a troll or just ate the poison propaganda and took the bait to not vote Kamala and aid even more in the destruction of Gaza by voting Trump. Like voting him in over Harris is just voting for a worse outcome for the citizens of Palestine. Period.

No, Trump imposed additional tariffs without reason on China. The only reason China raised tariffs, and by the way they literally stopped raising them because it's pointless since they're already so high, is because Trump started imposing them when he took office.

There already were trade agreements and tariffs in place negotiated with both countries input. These new tariffs were just slapped on by the Trump admin not as a reaction to anything but as a unilateral imposition.

You could also say they're unilateral because they're only aimed at China and no other states if you want to look at it that way too.

No war but class war, not disagreeing there, but also it's pretty clear there are policy changes and consequences for our elections.

>I guess that's the drawback of positioning yourself as an alternative to the US that doesn't interfere with foreign politics.

That right there is why I'm really worried about the next 4 or more years right now as a citizen of the USA. Like, we're just going to create this power vacuum through dumbass Don's executive fun time and China will happily exploit that and lap up the material rewards.

I feel like I'm watching a game of Civilization get played by a moron. It's excruciating. Only way any of it makes sense is that Trump literally is a Russian agent because otherwise why the fuck is he trying to drive our country off a cliff?

They won't give you a source because that would require them to have one.

Jesus Fucking Gish Gallop Christ.

Nobody forced Russia to invade another sovereign nation. If anything it goes to show that being in NATO keeps you safe from Russia (just look at the baltic states). If Putin and/or Russia's goal was to stop NATO expansion this war already did the opposite.
