What is going on?!
LMAO, I love that TEMU is just blasting their American users with push notifications and banner notifications that Trump tarrifs are why they have to pay 145% of the sale price for their cart.
Legit can't think of a better way to get the treatlerites to actually pay attention.
I suspect that there exists a type of guy who seethes at 10% sales tax yet is fine with this
AMERICA LAST
CONDITIONS WILL WORSEN
usians only care when the treats are late
usians
correct term is usaholes
No shit, I've been offline all day because of work, saw this just now and thought "did something happen to the treats?"
How much was the price jump?
Edit: Or was their order canceled?
I saw someone getting a 1400$ additional fee on a 40$ solar panel on AliExpress.
What the fuck are those people ordering? Everything I've seen on Temu you can still find pretty cheap in the US (especially since you're not paying for shipping) or is stuff like this (all of these were rated 5/5):
Like are they just ordering $100 worth of bathroom pun art and lawn ornaments?
Knockoff Lego and camping blankets? I really don't know. It's hard to spend a lot unless you go in for furniture, which really isn't temu's strong suit--hard to toss a futon into a shipping bag, unless it's inflatable. Which, tbh, I've seen.
Imagine being so disconnected from the entirety of current events. No bad news in sight, just living in the moment.
They call it "not interested in politics", brag about it, and treat as a virtue. Poland is also full of those types.

Hey sport, whatcha-…aaaaaugh!!
This is how it works for most people, for certain Burgerlanders, unless something immediately impacts them it might as well not exist.
The Canadian economy will boom from the Temu smuggling business. Gonna see drones drop packages over the border like it's a brick of coke lmao
Drones dropping Shein clothes by the bushel
You got this guy Julian - very strong, very sweaty, always in the black shirt - beautiful arms, folks, some of the best arms maybe ever seen in organized crime - and he’s running what they call the Swayze Express. It’s a model train, okay? Little choo-choo - very cute, very tiny - and they’re stuffing it with Chinese garbage, running it across the border like it’s the Underground Railroad, but for counterfeit patio furniture. Very creative. Very disgusting. And it’s happening in the trailer parks - beautiful trailer parks - now full of gorgeous, glistening men committing terrible crimes. Patrick Swayze - great guy, great dancer, knew him well - he’d be spinning in his grave, folks. Absolutely devastated.

I wanna see the comic. Sicko Canadians
Reminds me of Skinners tribes from Drake & Stirling series "General"
Barbarian nomads employed by the Civil Government as mercenaries. Notorious anarchists, with a reputation for marksmanship, dog riding, and atrocities. The Skinners speak a mangled mixture of English and French, "Paytoiz". They are reminiscent of the Huns. There are many references to the Skinners coming from French Canada, particularly Quebec. One of the groups is the "Trois Rivière" tribe. There are also examples of French Canadian names. This also explains the mixture of French and English.
They also had middle finger on their flag
Soon - there's a discussion in home of an Idaho border town.
"Is your connect legit?"
"You've asked me that 10 times this morning. Chill."
"Yeah but if—"
"Listen! That's the drone, baby!"
There's a pause. "Oh, I can hear it! I love the sound of napalm in the morning."
"But it's not the sound... Never mind. Let's go outside and get our stuff."
This is the peak of the mindset.

When I was around 20 this would have been me. Didn't care about stuff that happened on the news, didn't read any news websites, didn't watch tv or YouTube just videogames and work
i have friends like this and I make sure to ruin their zen states by interjecting news updates
"Hey all, did you hear about [manmade horrors beyond comprehension] 
?"
That whole sub rn is these posts
I've been watching that sub for the last few days and it's a bit heartening. Most posters correctly attribute it to the tariffs and blame the current administration.
What is Temu?
Temu-Jin, just instead of plunder, Usians are (well, were) getting cheap treats.
Like AliExpress but shittier I think.
Basically just skip the a**zon markup for timely delivery and go right to the source
It’s basically the same but with a really annoying app and dealing with returns is much easier because you’re dealing with a more centralized entity rather than the sellers. You get better deals on aliexpress but if something’s wrong with what you got it can be a big/bigger pain.
Honestly both websites were really useful if you knew when to use them. Now we’re all back to being stuck overpaying some dropshipper dipshit
I see, thank you.
shitty online shop based in china that's popular in america because instead of shipping in bulk to warehouses in the US to distribute their stuff, they would send each individual item directly thus avoiding tariffs due to the "de minimis" loophole. one trump is eliminating de minimis for china meaning tariffs apply and two trump is putting crazy tariffs on china, the result being temu orders getting cancelled or incredibly expensive.
the person in the screenshot is oblivious to this fact so they ordered a lot of shit from temu and now im assuming their orders are getting cancelled.
