The Western model of having each generation be financially independent
it's the same exact principle in the west. the young take care of the old, only in the west it's organized in the form of national institutions like the various national welfare programs, pension funds, and public healthcare programs that exist in different countries, rather than leaving it for the individual/family to deal with.

the idea of a 'financially independent' retiree generation is mostly nonsense tbh. outside of a few rich individuals (like seven figure net worth and up) who truly fund their livestyles with their own assets, most of them are dependent on institutions that operate by redistributing wealth from the young to the old in one form or another.
 
The problem is Miller is too based. All they would have to do is play clips of him saying he'd love to torture sandniggers because it's morally preferable to outright executing them, and 80% of women would fall over themselves to vote against someone so "heartless."
There's a couple years for normgroids to be made to find Miller palatable. It hasn't even been a calendar year yet for the administration.

This is a recent, like last 100 years, development. I think it's pretty hard to argue that much social good has come from people not needing to really plan for their retirement, not needing to manage their investments, not needing to care about the future. Generally it's better for everyone — eusocial — when people have to plan for the future.
 
Miller doesn't seem to have a great basis for holding high office. He's always been a supporting character, not a leadership figure. When you think of people angling for the Presidency it tends to be Senators, Governors and so on. I'm not sure he would make sense as VP. I'd be fine with it, personally, but nobody asked.
He doesn't seem like he even really wants higher office, not unless the presidency shifts to grant him unchecked powers to execute every immigrant on-site.
 
Too late. Took the fam to the cannon mountain tram summer before this past one, and a whole Indian tour group was there. One of them shat in the middle of the ladies’ room floor, per wife
I was on a cave tour with an indian family of four and they ate the whole time and threw their trash all throughout like it was nothing. Wtf?? It's a cave.
USA btw

Now financially independent old people call EMS for everything and rot away and get dementia. I think the Japanese model where multi-generations cohabitate is better all parties. Doesn't even have to be same structures but living in close proximity to grandparents provides free childcare to young parents and mental stimulation for the older people.

You know, maybe this is a silver lining or a silver noose, but at least these fuckers seem to be finding the fast ways to dispatch humans in a vehicular accident. RIP the Bride and Groom, till death do us part does not apply.
 
They use Migger now. Also trying to make pedophile a general slur.
Imagine being such a retarded, bitch-made faggot that you can't even use the word nigger so you try to change the first letter because it gets you the precious heckin' updoots on reddit.

Unironic use of the made up word "migger" is a dead giveaway that you're dealing with a lower species of primate.

It's even worse, making up a new slur to get around a wordfilter is pretty cool in itself, but in this case these people actually support word filters. They agree that saying nigger should be illegal. So they want other people banned for rules that they then skirt in a "cute" little way.
 
Massachusetts’ economy is dependent on federal grants to universities and biotech companies. If the Trump administration decides to prioritize applications from red states, they’d collapse overnight.
Not quite. You are correct that a huge part of the Massachusetts economy is universities, services that support universities, and all that comes with biotech companies. However, Boston is a major logistics hub with Logan and the harbor. Trucking is a big deal in that state. There are also a lot of high-tech companies, such as Boston Dynamics, based in Waltham (just outside of the city). The state has a pretty diverse economy, all things considered.

Companies like to go there because there's a lot of talent. Many universities partner with these companies to provide interns, research partnerships, and fresh graduates. It's not an entirely predatory thing. Joe wants to work with robots. Joe goes to Worcester Polytech, UMass Lowell, maybe MIT to study robotics. Those universities have placement programs for robotics companies where Joe can intern and, if he fits, get a job right out of college. Joe gets the degree he wants and the job he wants without any static. The same thing happens for lots of other industries, such as biotech and even hospitality.

Private universities are at far more risk from the federal grant stuff. Some biotech companies will eat shit, but they put all their eggs in one basket and no one will miss them. Another, larger, and more responsible company will buy their assets.
 
CNN: Are you an unemployed Black woman who lost your job this year? (archive) (lite)

By Alicia Wallace, CNN
Tue December 2, 2025

The US labor market has weakened over the course of the year as hiring has stalled across many industries. The national unemployment rate has ratcheted higher in the process, hitting 4.4% in September.

However, for certain workers, the negative effects of the slowing job market have been even more acute.

Unemployment has risen sharply this year for Black women workers, jumping from 5.4% in January to 7.7% in September. That jobless rate, which is climbing much faster than other demographic groups, is now at a four-year high. In addition to the negative impacts for people, households and communities, this increase is also a warning sign for the broader economy, economists caution.

Are you a Black woman who has lost or left your job this year and who would be willing to share your experience with a CNN reporter for possible inclusion in an upcoming story? If so, please fill out the form below.

We will not include anything in an upcoming article without first reaching out to you and interviewing you.
 
If everyone was more like New England, we wouldn’t have to make concessions to the chinks
Ver archivo adjunto 8242025
Don't kid yourself. Maine is full of fent zombies and trannies, Connecticut should be cordoned off and nuked into oblivion, Rhode Island barely exists, Massachusetts is a globohomo hellpit (and its full of chinks already), NH is slowly turning into another Massachusetts, and Vermont should just become its own country already.

Seriously, Vermont is its own distinct thing. They should be given sovereignty, become their own country, and basically be a little protectorate of the US like Puerto Rico.
 
This thread has been dead for 28 pages. Trump please do something more controversial than drone striking Venezuelans on boats, we need content.
Tennessee House 7 is tonight which could flip a seat in a narrow majority.

Three ways this could go:
- Aftyn Behn squeaks out a tiny majority (or even edge) on Van Epps, something like 49-48. This would be facilitated through vote fuckery. Fatpacks returns to doompost, everyone blackpilled. Media goes on for weeks about it and being able to flip the House before next November.
- Matt Van Epps squeaks out a tiny majority (or even edge) on Behn, within 3 points. Does not flip the seat. Fatpacks returns to doompost, many blackpilled but not all. Media goes on for a few days but is quickly forgotten about.
- Matt Van Epps wins by a significant margin, Democrats proclaim moral victory anyway, forgotten about.

Biggest whitepill: Republicans up by a large margin in early voting in a "we hope you stay home" election (counterpoint: the unaffiliated votes could swing)
Biggest blackpill: Emerson College polled Van Epps as only +2 and underestimating blue state wins doesn't bode well (counterpoint: some of the extra votes on ED was blue state fraud).
 
The duality of New England is such that it is said to have some of the smartest people in the country and yet what are the Ivy League colleges that are located there known for?
They're known for not taking any of the local 140IQ geniuses posting ITT but rather favoring broad swathes of chinks and the children of elite dynasties like the Bushes etc
