The anointed use words like “sustainable aviation fuel”.
What is that? Did an anointed priest bless the fuel and it makes it OK to burn it, vs. not burning it?
@Tennesseine
What’s your source?
2023 national data is incomplete.
The 2020 spike was due to the George Floyd affair which was blown out of proportion precisely because the media was keen to take down Trump.
The situation worsened in 2021.
2023 is still 20% above 2019 for the subset of

Murders, for which reporting is most reliable (impossible for police to ignore which is increasingly the case), are way up.
Your “data” isn’t matching the actual experience on the ground.

Because DEI is not really about diversity it’s about redistribution of outcomes for groups that are deemed “disadvantaged”.
It’s a new brand for a particular political movement that segments groups into classes of “oppressors” vs. “oppressed”.

What are you talking about?
Any individual making $1M a year (or more) either started a business or is rewarded by his/her customers for very high skills.

Now the 650 Harvard professors that supported her should resign as well. They all confirmed their poor judgment with their written support.

There are about 40 murders by non Hispanic whites in Minnesota (which has a heavy German/Scandinavian concentration), leading to 0.9 per 100,000 murders per year. Coincidentally, Germany’s murder rate is around 0.9 per 100,000 despite 20X+ more gun ownership in Minnesota than

2023 data is not complete, underperforming districts have an incentive to lag.
Comparing murder rates for only districts that have consistently reported. The murder rate in 2023 is still 20% above what it was in 2019. This is a tragedy, not a success.

The record of history is clear.
Europe has repeatedly fallen to authoritarianism and the USA has not.
Europe is in precipitous economic and demographic decline and the USA is not.
Whatever European bureaucrats recommend, a good rule of thumb is to do the exact opposite.
@TheRabbitHole84
People who care about RESULTS rather than INTENTIONS oppose Marxism.
The anointed, who are supposedly pure, wise and always on the side of the angels, value INTENTIONS more than RESULTS. They are prone to be seduced by Marxism, in spite of all evidence.

The US government just has to start doing less. We were at 5% of GDP or below in government spending for the first 125 years of this country and we’re capable of returning to it.
@DilwrAli
@hurricanejoosh
Yes, and inflation was correspondingly low. One could argue some of the 2020 stimulus was overdone but it wasn’t until October of 2020 that we knew that the 3Q GDP was recovering. All the stimulus in 21/22,was superfluous.
@wideawake_media
The anointed, who are always on the side of the angels, see “crises” and “emergencies” that only them can see.
In their infinite wisdom, these “emergencies” MUST result in immediate cuts to our food supply.

And all these things were created by other entrepreneurs, investors and people with skills (human capital). These beneficial interactions are no excuse for high taxes and wasteful government spending.

These people are paying taxes as well, including paying for government schools (without using them because they aren’t happy with the quality).
The parents sending their kids to private schools save the government $20k per year.

Because only the imagined reality in the heads of intellectuals matters. Data or facts don’t matter. Only the elegance and appeal of what they want to be true does.

Everything subsidized by the government becomes more costly (higher inputs) while quality deteriorates (lower output). This is especially true for education.

Objectively if you look at his contributions to science, engineering and society it can only be favorable. Politicians and their underlings hate individuality, innovation and freedom and will vote “unfavorable”.

This data goes against the sweeping pronouncements of the anointed. Reality should conform to the vision, therefore this data should be hidden.

The media cannot be trusted. Their greatest pleasure is to make up narratives and tip off the scales for their preferred candidate.
Their preferred candidate is ALWAYS the one that has the greatest chance at expanding the government.

Update, the “whites” above include 7% of Hispanics who have a national murder rate around 7 per 100k. The non-Hispanic white murder rate in Minnesota is therefore much lower than Germany’s total murder rate. On the other hand, I’ve ignored that 0.8% of Germany’s population is

Starting now, all these good people will actually be able to add value to society, e.g., by serving coffee.
Let’s celebrate their new elevated role and command them for finally undertaking honest work.
@MelissaGomez004
Layoffs aren’t “allowed” they are management decisions to preserve the viability of the company.
If today’s journalists don’t understand that, don’t wonder why you’ll soon move up in society by serving coffee, a more useful and honest task than what led you to failure.

For those arguing that racism is to blame, how do they explain that a $200k earning black family tests the same as a $20k or less whites family? In presence of racism I’d think that high earning blacks should be smarter than equally high earning whites as they would need to
@johnpavlovitz
How so?
The democrats did the “war on poverty” in the mid 1960s. Poverty was previously declining at great pace and the trend abruptly stopped.
$23T later, poverty rates haven’t decreased and dependency on the government has increased.
