I'd give 100% of my paycheck to a child that eats pedophiles

[–] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 6 points 2 hours ago

Trump paid for showing me (located with an european IP address and an european account) a facebook video ad boasting about how now overtime is tax exempt. It was awesome: it was an ai-generated pixar style ai slop about some men coming back after some work in oil field or coal mine and hugging their kids, opening the letter with a huge "pussy hair" signature saying that now overtime pay is not taxed.

[–] bridgeburner@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago (3 children)

Wait you pay that much in taxes in the US? I thought the silver lining of living in the US means lower taxes compared to countries with social security systems and universal healthcare.

[–] lovely_reader@lemmy.world 8 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

That's the line they feed us, for sure. But if you ever actually added up federal income tax, state income tax, state and local sales tax, Social Security tax, property tax and assorted taxes for any instance in which you might come into additional money (capital gains, interest, prize winnings, inheritance, etc. etc. etc.) most Americans would probably be shocked to learn what real percentage of our income we actually pay to the government.

[–] Katana314@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

This is a very good reminder to me. The rich pay comparatively little on things like gas taxes, retail tax, etc.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

No - they just pretend taxes are lower to justify not using the tax money responsibly to provide social services.

Between federal income tax, social security, and medicaid my taxes come out to about 40% off the top. Then I have to pay state sales tax, local taxes, and in many states people also have to pay state sales tax.

[–] TheHighRoad@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

That's the best part: We don't know! There are so many taxes and fees and BS spread over so many things that it is very difficult to calculate the total percentage accurately. 40% seems high, but it's probably not far off when you add everything up.

He needs to be better receptive to capitalist propaganda. /s

But but Dear Leader needs that money to invade Iran and Just Take The Oil!

[–] youcantreadthis@quokk.au 20 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Absolute slander. The pedophiles drink the children. They dont eat them. Apologize to the pedophiles right now!

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 15 points 4 hours ago

"How is this child sized?"

"It's roughly the equivalent of a small child that's been liquified."

[–] RepleteLocum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

This looks like slop. Maybe its just the Mexico filter that GPT uses.

[–] mudkip@lemdro.id 4 points 1 hour ago

It's a WikiHow image.

[–] lovely_reader@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Looking closer at the plant and random background object (door? cabinet? bulletin board?) it seems you're probably right, well spotted :(

[–] Wilco@lemmy.zip 17 points 7 hours ago

Yea, Im not going to object when the guillotines get rolled out for these Operation "Epstein Fury" masterminds.

I worked union construction for 15 years and 90% of those guys are die hard MAGA

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 36 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

most people in trades are conservative, and mostly white people, with a side of hispanic groups. people wonder why more arnt going into the trades, likely they arnt hiring people outside of that political demographic.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

It’s because when women and black people meet all the criteria and are begrudgingly allowed in that’s when the haze out circus begins. I’ve seen some horrible things and there’s no accountability. In my union in a dark blue state Union officers were putting nooses and writing kkk on a group of black men’s things to the point they had to file a police report. And the state didn’t do a damn thing. https://www.courthousenews.com/mitsubishi-accused-of-ignoring-years-of-workplace-racism/

Yeah, I'm a straight married bearded husky white guy who has taken up carpentry as a hobby, and I have no interest in being part of that industry. I have a relative who is a trumper plumber and the culture fits him perfectly, lol.

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 42 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (1 children)

I've been a scientific monitor for construction projects and they will tolerate you, but you will mostly be excluded. I of course as bearded man from the South had an easier time than some of the younger women that were my coworkers. Of course they generally don't like the monitors much, but they have clear preferences.

Honestly the drama on a construction site is peak. These grown men are so petty and cliquey

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

Female 15 year elevator mechanic here and I agree it’s like none of them matured past middle school. I have so many crazy, funny and sad stories. It’s like lord of the flies but dumber. I’m in school for an MA in industrial design so I can pivot out of the clan in the field

[–] Eyekaytee@aussie.zone 22 points 12 hours ago

Love the downvotes, Lemmy is still confused that there are people who absolutely love and vote for Dickfingers McGee even after everything he has done

This was literally 2 weeks ago:

But they NEED that 40% to buy more bombs to send to Israel or use themselves on the middle east.

[–] GalacticSushi@piefed.blahaj.zone 10 points 4 hours ago

Not just bombs. They need to send Israel cash so Israel can fund AIPAC so AIPAC can bribe politicians into sending even more money to Israel so Israel can fund AIPAC even more so AIPAC can bribe politicians into sending even more money to Israel so...

[–] youcantreadthis@quokk.au 10 points 6 hours ago

You completely forget the cost of pedo yachts and pedo islands. For shame.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 14 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

the bombs are a side benefits, its really to launder the money back into the politicians pockets back in the usa, send AID/MONEY TO israel they fund us gop/dnc through AIPAC to continue thier expansionism, plus added benefited of preventing any actual change in the stage. Hakeem, shcheumer and hordes of other DINOS are fighting tooth and nail to give israel more aid. its basically the same method used for "charter school vouchers", red states allow the vouchers to be used shoddy private schools which then the schools gives the money to the gop as a kickback.
