Overall costs? I believe it would. But it’s entirely possible that he manages to blind them temporarily with lower fuel prices.

Easier to list the things that are NOT really fucked under the Trump admin.

Honestly, that’s much less than the last time somebody wrote that.

But the real percentage we will learn when election results come in.

…and that’s all that matters, isn’t it? So we just have to hope that prices don’t go down before the next election, right?

I just commented elsewhere on Trump buying oil from Russia before the midterms: we will see if the American Public as a whole has learned anything in the last 10 years.

Yeah this.

Also there’s better ways of describing a strange taste. I once saw a whole sketch describing the smell of teatree oil without resorting to human excretion humor.

I remember a pretty long video on !thepoliceproblem@lemmy.world where an ice agent was stopped for erratic driving and, clearly drunk, tried to talk his way out of it, like “hey man, I’m ICE, we’re on the same side, I just got divorced, don’t fuck me like this!”, later more threatening. I think his kid was even in the back. It went on for ages. Truly something to behold. It contained everything you need to know about what sort of people get hired by ICE.

I dispute that. Way too clickbaity, but that’s just the way of headlines these days.

The interview this is based on uses the word “exasperated” which I find much more fitting.

In the USA? Who’s that?

Drop in the ocean.

Damn that sounds cynical wrt USA’s fossil fuel usage.

Oh and let’s please appreciate that this isn’t his first “highly succesful call with Vladimir Putin” (sheesh, he even added the first name in full. Truly a fan) by a long shot.

Ah ja, hab ich auch grad gesehen.

Mal sehen ob das Volk in den letzten 10 Jahren irgendwas gelernt hat.

The AI stuff has no philosophical sense behind it; it’s just vibes.

Your list combined with OP’s grievances is still non-exhaustive. Add environmental and societal impact. Nature and people suffer physically from it. People can’t get jobs. People who have created IP get pushed out by government-supported IP theft.

I’m not willing to entertain this at all. It’s not a psy-op for me, just a gigantic grift & hype of mostly one nation and its corpos.

Sure, the likes of Thiel and Altman would like you to think it’s a more complex thing, even to the point of admitting that it’s controversial. But it’s still just a grift, hype and bubble.

I feel like a child that fell asleep on an airplane and is surprised that the world around them has changed.

I did hear about RISC-V making it onto hardware but what about kernel development?

Got to get those fuel prices down before the election!

We’ll see if the American Public has learned anything in the past 10 years.

Present company excluded of course.

Ukraine should let every Iranian tanker through.

Wait what? Looking at the map, that means into the EU? Why?

What adult is going to respond that way to a kid?

Not me, but I’m seeing it almost daily. Anything that they think even has a whiff of imposing their will on their child they skirt.

Who knows what cynical tiers this really contains once you sign up.

Having a few percent of unemployed people doesn’t really give employers power.

If you see “employers” as part of a system then yes it does. Things would be very different if there was always a slight draft in the other direction, esp wrt OP’s question.
