Sorry if I upset anyone when I said I didn’t mind no more Americans on TikTok. Just been frustrated lately with the news surrounding Venezuela and normies still glorifying the US because their favorite streamer makes it look like Disney world

I heard about this. Absolute bullshit and that video is infuriating. Reminds me of kids in elementary school with evangelical parents who pulled them out of anything Halloween related. That included watching Scooby Doo

This is every poor district in the US. It’s something that gets easily swept under the rug

I feel kind of selfish admitting that I don’t mind the TikTok USA deal as long as the rest of the world gets left alone. It’ll be like when TikTok was temporarily banned and we didn’t have annoying ass Americans shitting up the app.

Guatemala did this during the civil war. End result was a largely successful trans genocide that’s only recently recovered and even then a lot of them make plans to jump ship for Costa Rica or Mexico.

It would be difficult to just outright cancel them with their federal system and incredibly ballsy. Does trump even have that much control over the military to pull that off?

Brings me flashbacks to Hillary in 2007 saying how she likes to use guns to rural Pennsylvanians and then in 2015 shaming Bernie for being more lenient on guns.

Yeah but you’re part of the problem if you don’t vote for Dems. You purity lefties will doom the world with your single choice issues.

The NATO liberal who was debating Charlie Kirk when he got shot was a Destiny fan lmao Their entire thing was to copy the Fuentes strategy and stalk Charlie Kirk so that gigabrain Destiny or his followers would own him in debates

These people love to accuse others of having a simplistic worldview when they can only view geopolitical conflicts as good vs. evil.

This is from a "leftist" sub. This same user then says they're muslim and that everybody objecting to their take doesn't understand politics and is an edgy teenage tankie larper.

I'm fucking done with NATO leftists on these subs and sticking to TheDeprogram and SLS before I give myself an aneurysm

It seems that this is an attempt to gain favor with Latin American countries as they move more towards China. I have a feeling this is going to go the usual way of American-led incompetence by giving the private sector too much control and having every project take forever to complete.

Also to note that the biggest America worshipping countries joined this little forum while pledging themselves to their lord.

One of my childhood friends is finding himself in a tough situation. He's autistic and has struggled to make decent money for most of his life. He recently got a job working as a dishwasher while looking for a trade to get into.

His parents are when the issues kick in. They charge him rent (he's 31 btw) that's currently only $107. They used to charge him $300 back in 2014 and would have it go up by $50 every year to the point he was paying $600 before Covid hit. He still had to pay rent while in school and his parents refused to stop it during that time. The majority of his unemployment checks during Covid went into their rent.

They decided to change things by having him go on foodstamps in order to reduce his rent. He spends maybe $20 a week at the most for food because he's never been a big eater. Most of that foodstamp money goes to his parents who use it for groceries, including his. The thing is that they spend way more than he ever does and completely max out the card every month.

He's been under stress lately because he has to re-certify but his new job has a schedule that's all over the place and makes it so he keeps missing the calls when they happen. His parents insist that part of this process is to help him with his Autism and "become an adult." The stress got so bad for him with all the missed calls that he threw his hands up and decided to just not re-certify because it was adding too much stress in his life. His parents responded angrily by saying he would then "owe" them money in the form of $250 a month plus the $174 he already owes from a loan he took out five years ago.

The big kicker is that they're a pretty wealthy family living in a very wealthy part of Upstate New York, but they leech off what little money he has like vultures. The whole rent thing is said to be helping him with his Autism to become more self-sufficient but if anything it's made him more financially dependent on them than anything.

I know this was more of a rant than anything, but it's been difficult listening to this for years now and seeing him still stuck living with them. It's pretty clear to me that he's scared of moving out of their nice house and living in some sketchy apartment without a car because he can't afford one. I'm just not sure what else there is to do because I'm not living in the US and am unfamiliar with how social services work there.

Is there a way for him to get out and not be living on the edge of poverty?

Vaushites and Destiny fans are brigading like crazy and leaving behind their State Department logic.

Kind of a weird zinger. I thought leftists were stereotyped to be sex-driven heathens?
