      I like what this idiot says. Is there some way I can blindly support them to rule the world like an idiot?

      The Dems lost approximately 10,000,000 voters this time around, and Trump ended up winning by approximately 500,000.

      Seems to me the Dems are the idiots for thinking they could fail to follow through on their promises and people would continue to vote for them. You don’t get to punch people in the face and then pretend it’s their fault when you broke your hand, after all.

        And yet they were following through on their promises. Gas prices are the lowest they’ve been in years, eggs were fine. Student loans were being addressed until retardicans blocked it. Same with the border bill same with the inflation bill. Any repub or dem who listened to brainwashing instead of evidence can go fuck themselves. Hell, they have gone and fucked themselves.

          I’m actually kind of proud of them for nominating her for that exact reason. It does give me some hope that in the Post Trump future women will be seen as real people.

      It’s been coming doing for years, but much like Trump took credit for Obama’s economy, he will take credit for this too. And 50% of the country will learn the wrong lesson.

        Search trends are not useful for population studies. For example, did you even bother comparing the search trends you presented to other election years?

          Yeah, questions about vot8ng will always spike after an election, not having numbers makes that increase meaningless. There was another image comparing these trends to people searching for tailor swift, which was like 8 times higher than these trends in any point of the curve. So high that the increase of this question was even hard to see.

          I hate people that manipulate data presentation to twist results.

    If people pay for the higher prices then it doesn’t matter. The general public would need to boycott or literally not be able to afford the prices of the good. Unfortunately, we all are very poorly disciplined in that regard, myself included.

        Especially if shops like Tesco as much as double your prices without loyalty cards. Tesco is the worst, haven’t been there for months (as a customer).

        Tesco Clubcard, Kaufland Card, Billa Bonus club, Lidl Plus (app required), Coop Jednota Club.

        There is no alternative. Supermarket chains killed most small shops. Oh, and you may still need an app to manage it even if you have a plastic card.

      People will pay whatever a company asks as long as people have money or credit. By “people” I mean the consumerist masses, not you and me.

          I actually didn’t buy something I wanted yesterday and found an alternative instead because of the out of control price gouging the last few years. I bought a compost bin there 4 years ago for $24. I needed a new one and went to my purchase history to buy the same one. They want $50 now. Seriously, man? 100% price increase in 4 years? Nah man. I found something else. The worst part is that it wasn’t even a good can. The lid broke after a year. $50 for a tiny one gallon trash can that’ll last a year is completely ridiculous.
