All the way up, remember that Trump is their lackey

Haha yeah it was an old flip phone circa 2005, unscrewed the antenna and packed the bowl there and through the charge port that was one of those super wide Kyocera types. Not our best idea, but it makes for a fun story.

I've smoked out of a cell phone back when they had antennas you could unscrew, 3/10

This whole "too big to fail" schtick really needs to go the way of the dodo. I understand the implications in terms of jobs and whatnot, but the fact that some of these firms have gotten so big that they'll fracture economies is flat out irresponsible.

I mean yeah, it's not uncommon to know where each other live, there's also that unspoken respect of leave people alone. Also yet another reason to not be an asshole in a small town lol.

I don't wanna smoke my computer

I live in a small mountain town, and property values went apeshit. Like a house/cabin that was $150-250k is now $4-500k. It's insane.

Privacy and anonymity is definitely still a thing as long as you keep you business to yourself, because as I'm guessing you're alluding to, people are pretty chatty as it is and a smaller population makes it more difficult. It also helps to not be an asshole and give people even more to talk about, especially when most everyone knows each other.

He's bending over backwards and falling in line to Trump so he doesn't get disappeared. Guaranteed.

Here's the rub: the whole "idea" is to spur American manufacturing to be done domestically. Cool. But when you raise prices by a fuck ton, American manufacturers (when the get it together some years down the line because factories don't spring up overnight), they're just going to price their goods slightly cheaper than their imported counterpart's current market price, not significantly cheaper to help Americans. American companies, especially conglomerates, have proven time and again they'll fleece us dry to make the line go up. That is all a sham.

Same thing in the US with college campus protestors. It's not about defending the Jewish faith from hatred, it's about silencing dissent.

But then they can't use the broad banner of antisemitism to silence anyone that gets on their nerves. Anti-genocide would just be logical, can't have that.

So are a significant number of politicians around the world, yet we keep electing them
