Ah yes, digital panhandling, one of the pillars of a healthy 21st century economy. Don't worry though, I'm told the stock market is doing great!

    Well yeah, thanks to the felonious pedo in chief’s evil war of choice and other asinine dementia decisions, everything costs too much and party hasn’t kept up.

    We're going to become so rich, you're not going to know where to spend all that money.

    Well, actually my husband and I (Belgium) have been supporting families in the US through go fund me. One family is in Chicago, and the other one is in Tennessee, after hearing about their plight on the Internet, we decided that we had to do something, especially since their kids need to go to school and after that to college, Needless to say, we have made great friends across the ocean, and we have regular Zoom meetings to stay in touch.

    Just kidding, we are supporting projects in Kenya, especially since US Americans decided on cutting USAID, they can go f$@k themselves.

    Ah yes, of course the only form of socialism people get behind has capitalist overtones. Not comfortable with their tax dollars going to better society because it could benefit the wrong people. So let's allow corporations to take as big of slice as they want from people's generosity and charity.

    It's hard to find anything to be optimistic about. I want to be hopeful but I just can't.

    that first step is to get away from all the sources that won't enable you to see what's going on.

    start regarding everything you hear from wikipedia, cnn, fox news, npr, cnn, cbc, abc, bbc, le monde, der spiegel, etc. the same way you regard the kremlin.
