    I mean, if the CIA weren’t actively undermining communist governments and causing them to collapse, or funding spoiler or puppet candidates to distort the communist government’s growth and ideals, because communism is a direct assault on capitalism and their capitalist overlords… then maybe you’d see a functioning communist country…









  • I took my car into the dealership for a full work-up and diagnostic in January, roughly $1k… mentioning the light and the recall I had heard about. Well, they said everything was good and unless I brought the car in with the light on they couldn’t do anything about it or the recall. Days later, the light came back on driving home early from work. So, I head right there, while the engine is stuttering and fighting to make it across town. There isn’t any availability until end of the following week…

    I go across town to a hole in the wall mechanic and get seen immediately. They diagnose a cracked head gasket and blown radiator pretty quickly, order a new engine because it’s like $375 and under $2k to install. Done by Monday.

    I originally went to the dealership. I explained the problem, the cars keep a warning light log that they can access… and they missed the obvious issues but still charged me $1k for work that didn’t matter my more, because I got an entirely new engine and radiator.
