"The kangaroo is a funny animal. When attacked, it defends itself." ~ Neville Cardus "This is what I observe or expect to happen" isn't the same as "This is what I want to happen." Not even remotely close. "Learn to shrink yourself to the size of the company you are in. Take their tone, whatever it may be, and excel in it if you can; but never pretend to give the tone. A free conversation will no more bear a dictator than a free government will" ~ Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chester

You see some other group of people who are struggling too but occasionally do better than you. You have been taught that they are the reason for your misery.

In comes Trump, and while he does not do shit for you, he is willing to hurt those people.

That is sufficient to vote for him.

Now, get out of that skin, it was only an aid to explanation.

nostr:npub1ack78g846auhwtggvlja47msq4cehur6wlqv0hdwzzq7pmvgtt0qprnemd That's the question I have asked.

A subscription to the WSJ/NYT/WaPo costs $40-$80 annually.

It gives you hundreds of authors, sections, topics, games, puzzles, reviews, tips, news, etc.

On a daily basis.

A typical substack costs $5 a month, has a single author, who does not publish daily, and offers simply opinion.

I do not know who can afford that.

He wants to win a championship, not move to Canada for a while.

nostr:npub1eeujhtd8lgaqey3jrw20mr0d90z0l635d4efltghe7qdc0fcurnqr7u43z Soon after McCain picked Palin as his running mate, I adopted the stance that ALL REPUBLICANS ARE SCUM.

I was apprehensive at first of the generalization, but I have not been disappointed with it as I have observed them.

Not one that is not an asshole.

So, yes, I too dislike Biden. But it would be with the energy of a couple of suns, unlike Trump, for whom it is millions of suns.
