So glad we're allies with the worst people of humanity

"We". The American goverment doesn't have anything close to the consent of the governed anymore. It's literally a plutocracy now - it wasn't all at once on any specific date, but our votes haven't mattered since 2000 (at least) and our dollars haven't mattered since 2008 (at least).

Practically nobody in America wants to be allied with Saudi Arabia except for the people they've bribed.

Got to agree with ya here. All price reductions now are through apps now. On the plus side it makes it easier for me to draw the line of what businesses to use but I feel like there is not enough resistance and my options will drop to zero.

Fuck this douchenozzle with broken glass. What a blight on humanity. Where up is the Punisher when we need him?

Wonder where they got all that data. Elon, any ideas? Who bought a bunch of Twitter recently again?
