I'm not even a librarian but pshh, I still got a card. They give them out to anyone, you know.

This is on my feed but I'm lacking context. Would someone mind explaining what this is in reference to?

Not going to lie, I didn't really follow that.

They are pretty disconnected from the rest of the country both geographically and financially, so honestly, I doubt it.

My good friend's parents are adamant that Trump has done nothing wrong and apparently hope he continues on the current path.

you can't amass that type of wealth without . . .

Sure, but that's not for being billionaires; that's for what they did to become billionaires and perhaps for what they are (or are not) doing to maintain their status.

Leftist messaging is plagued by the fact that what what is said literally is often something obviously wrong or stupid which is supposed to stand in (by convention, I suppose) for the point that is "actually" being made.

It makes dismissing leftist messages pretty appealingly mechanical for those who are opposed or even just unfamiliar -- they need only point out the obvious way in which the literal meaning of the actual words the leftist has said is wrong or stupid. You can't fault much the latter sort of person here, because there's really not any indication that you don't just wholesale believe the stupid thing you said.

It's a critical problem that's had a crippling impact on the acceptance of leftist movements in the United States. So it's best to say what you mean. It really helps.

Somehow that doesn't read as pizza. My gut reaction when I see it is "what?" but is quickly followed by "oh, I see- that's probably pretty good".

Oh; thank you.
