Slop.

My brother in christ, the country and profoundly sick society you stan are being held together by the glue of cheap shit from the global south so good luck with that.

its crazy how many maga r saying this is actually a good thing

ig i shouldn't be surprised but wow

It's true that people don't need to (and to be honest, shouldn't) constantly buy brand new consumer electronics but actual necessities like food are no less impacted by inflation and tariffs.

It's also maddening to see this from a treatlerite grifter like this guy.

That might work if there were any sense of community left in this place. As it stands the only thing holding it together are the cheap trinkets you're taking away.

you do not NEED to piss on the floor of your basement when your wife goes out for dinner without you.

you WANT to.

surely this rhetoric will resonate well with the American Treatlertariat

Trump Calmly Reminds Nation That Desire The Root Of All Suffering

WASHINGTON—Seeking to reassure the public after his latest tariffs sent both U.S. and international markets into free fall, President Donald Trump calmly reminded the nation Thursday that desire is the root of all suffering. “My fellow Americans, remember that attachment to worldly things stands at the very foundation of the illusions that lead us to experience deep anguish,” said the commander-in-chief, who reportedly sat in a full lotus position on the Oval Office floor as he noted that to base one’s contentment on access to affordable food, cars, electronics, shoes, clothing, furniture, or various other imports was to make one’s existence as fickle as the stock market itself. “You tell yourself, ‘I want eggs,’ but explain to me what this ‘I’ is that you speak of? Can you point to it? Of course not. ‘I’ is a prison you’ve built for yourself. So long as you live within the ‘I,’ you live in a perpetual dream. Only when we dissolve this ‘I’ can we extinguish all of the terrible clinging and instead start living authentically in the realm of awakened life.” At press time, Trump had concluded by noting that it was thus that his Liberation Day tariffs were the path to freeing oneself from the karmic wheel of samsara.

Brother, the only thing holding this country together is treats, TV, and the internet in a tripod configuration.

Didn't this guy just cry about the Nintendo Switch 2 pricing?

I challenge you to ask them how their lives have been affect in any way

my dude, it hasnt even been like two days yet

Isn’t this guys whole thing complaining about those same treats being woke?

You do not NEED a car. You do not NEED a bicycle. You do not NEED electricity. You can live without. You just WANT them because you think they might make your quality of life more tolerable. Learn the difference!

the suburbs must scream

America is the best country on earth and you can tell this by the fact that literally nobody can afford anything!

This is extra funny because his content is 100% treatlerism

Next step is usually calling fridge "luxury".

my phone came out in 2016, it's screen is cracked, the charging port is fucked (thank god for wireless charging) and my stupid fucking bank app won't even work in it anymore so yeah actually i do need a new phone

No circus

No bread

Knives Out

They are going to be the first to be killed during the warlord era

sure.... but i do need healthcare, housing, food, and transportation. these things are already unaffordable and becoming more so and the import taxes hurt that even more.

Is there someone you forgot to ask?

Tell that to the people that have lost their jobs due to these fucking tariffs. It's always these terminal online 4chan/twitter/other trash site brained fuckers that say such stupid shit like this and has no touch with the real world.

within a year there were fires on the ridges and deranged chanting. the screams of the murdered

You don't WANT to eat the bugs and sell your house for a routine surgery, you NEED to.

how their lives have been affected in any way

You mean since yesterday? I have no idea who TheQuartering is - but I'd bet money that within a few weeks he's going to be spewing vile conspiracy theory rhetoric like how "leftist Jews" or whoever are destroying the stock market to make Trump look bad.

Take away the treats and what else is there? Bro is out of his mind

And then they call US “weird ascetics” when we propose we do the same but for the sake of the environment.

It makes me sick any one of these treathogs is even pretending to be this deep anti-consumption guru when the next second they’re throwing a tantrum over video games giving insufficient special treatment to white people.
