I wish I was in a place were I had no idea what was going on. I'm just twitching when I think about Republicans sending people to concentration camps with out charges or trial. That just means everyone is just sheep to be plucked. We are now just living on luck.

145% isn't even accurate because that's just on the cost of the good. You then have to figure in retailer margin, seller margin etc. Most MSRPs will be 300% of what they were to keep those the same as before.
Oh no! I guess they'll have to get their cheap Chinese knock-off crap from Good American Sources.
Seriously though, even if the tariffs were reduced pre-loony-President levels tomorrow, no-one's gonna trust that being permanent.
Did I miss something?
Jesus fucking Christ yes
Nooo, not the fascist i'm voting for... There must be something else i'm missing
A Lemmy post about an article about a Reddit post. The internet feels more and more incestuous every day.
I responded to a question on Reddit that I am knowledgeable of to make an educated guess. Then, it turns out OP is a journalist and asked me if he could quote me. But I declined because even though I know the topic well enough, I am not an expert and don't have the credentials to show for. I mean, I could have allowed OP to quote me and feed my ego, but I don't want to sow misinformation if I am wrong. And besides, being quoted with my then strange username will make the article strange.
Yeah, journalism is getting lazier and lazier.
Journalism is dead because Sinclair has been gobbling up local news.
Check to see who your local news outlet is - several of mine are owned by like Missouri’s retirement fund or something.
I realized journalism was truly dead a few years back when I noticed that most news articles online are just a bunch of Twitter posts talking about the headline. I fantasize about writing a movie where Edward R. Murrow comes back from the dead as a demon and just goes around slaughtering lazy journalists, which forces other journalists to actually do their fucking jobs.
Make it into a comic. It could be the next "V for Vendetta" or "Akumetsu", but for journalism.
just a bunch of Twitter posts talking about the headline
Combine that with the dead internet theory and you've got yourself a corporate owned propaganda machine on all fronts
Wait until you see the price of groceries in a few short weeks because no one is around to do the processing. Fuck toilet paper shortages and being locked in your home all day because complete incompetence, we had to go for round two of how Trump is going to tap dance around super hard stuff.
Okay Republicans. Do something other than screaming about it's all unfair. Do something other than pointing at people and screaming hate. Do something or this thing you have complete control of isn't going to have food in about three months.
