Buddy this meme is put in reverse.

Netflix THEN Chrome THEN Windows???

Then why are you crying about American renegement when you have Poland and Estonia outpacing America?? What do you even need us for?

Oh yeah, it’s that 754 billion USD. LOL.

So unless you can conjure 430 Billion USD out of your ass without any inflationary effect then America just lost a third of its defence budget and power.

And Europe’s defense would be cut down to a third. America will do fine defending a much smaller area with a slightly smaller defense budget. Europe, I doubt it.

I think the possibility of America leaving NATO is the only thing that I can see as a good thing on the horizon. I cannot wait until Russia steamrolls you all the way to France and I never have to hear about ungrateful Europeans from behind the Great Firewall that Putin puts in place for you.

NATO isn’t sharing resources, it’s literally just Europe leeching off America’s military. And because of some gross paternal feelings towards the Old World, America was very happy being Europe’s bitch in that regard for the past 80 years.

There is no price tag on that.

There is for Americans who have watched our military budget balloon several times over the agreed-upon 2% to pick up the slack - at the expense of our social programs.

Of course you don’t give a flying fuck about where the money comes from yet

I’d like European countries to actually commit 2% to defense and for the US to stop subsidizing other countries’ socialism.

As it stands, NATO is a defense pact designed to counter a country that literally doesn’t exist anymore and has failed consistently for the past 30 years.

Fuck off, reddit hands out permabans like they’re on sale. Last year, people were getting PBd just for saying the word “lemmy.”

I wish I still believed that

Reddit’s blocking feature is probably the dumbest I’ve ever seen

You can say drugs. It’s the internet.

Instinctively downvoted Meloncuck’s face. His fans are without a doubt the worst force in the music community. I’ll take a hundred Swifties before I have to deal with another Fantano stan trying to talk about fucking Carly Rae Jepsen with me in the pit before a show starts. Awful. Awful. Awful.

I won’t lol

Cope and seethe lmao

“Dr*nk driver” is a slur, we prefer “driver who drinks.” And it’s only a couple beers to get the shakes down before I get on the road and a couple of road beers as needed if they come back

Definitely, but if I was trying to make a sales pitch to an average person, that’s what I’d lead with. Add-ons on FF Mobile make something like YouTube Premium completely redundant

When I was younger I’d always make sure to toss a beer can straight at the windshields of those jerkasses. Always had plenty rolling around in the foot wells. Might just have to start doing that again as long as automakers keep shipping out cars with the head of Helios shoved into where the headlamps are supposed to be

You’ve never worked retail, have you?

No? The inflation of the past few years was way too apparent for the current administration to ignore in their reelection campaign, but “inflation” is a scary word with some serious political connotations that no sitting official wants to connect themselves to. Instead, you just say “it’s not inflation, It’s corporate greed!” and you’re saying the same thing twice.

See how “Depression” became “Recession” which became “Economic Downturn”

Always has been. Saying “I-its not inflation! It’s… corporate greed!” was always a political decision and nothing more

Maybe my comment was a bit rude but please don’t teach your daughter to instantly distrust people based on their gender. That’s a recipe for undersocilization that’s going to fuck her up for a long time
