"I didn't vote for this"
Yes... you literally did vote for this.
it'll never cease to be hilariously ironic that conservatives love to call others naïve, as they themselves fail to realize that people will tell blatant lies in order to get votes
And I bet they'll do it again in ten years when the next swindler comes along telling them lies.
Lol, you think we're gonna still have elections.
Gotta own them libs!
At least there's enough brain power there to call them taxes
Yea fuck this man sideways.
Haha what a sad hateful bitter fuck. May he find out more
Oh no Trump took away my buisness with his economic policies. At least I can rest easy knowing that we're legislating child genitals
I didn't vote for this
Didn't you know what you were voting for?
Yes.
Well, he's a liar, an idiot, or both. I'm going with both.
So he clearly shows he knows next to nothing butwhat he's been shovel fed. He's using trans in a verb form, which shows his ignorance very clearly. Maybe if he learned more or met some trans individuals (you see, it's an adjective in this sentence), he might understand more. But empathy is a sin, so can't do that. That Bible he knows 4 words from says so, he was told it said that, along with hating homosexuals and immigrants... jfc, I'm so sick of blatant stupidity. I can forgive ignorance, but wanton idiocy just flabbergasts me. We as humans crave knowledge and are by nature curious. Why some people are content to just sit like automatons and refuse to learn anything I just cannot comprehend.
people picked wealth over human rights and healthcare. now they get neither
It's a genuine mistake (/s), they thought that pro-business/anti-regulations would help their small business.
As with everything, they lied. It's about billionaires making more billions, at the expense of EVERYONE else - workers, but also other businesses. I'm convinced that all the rest, including the racism, xenophobia, transphobia, misogyny and overall bigotry are just tools to convince people to act against their own interests.
They didn't even lie. They said this is what they were going to do. He chose to believe that plan would only hurt people he disliked.
They got wealth, just for a distinct group of people
people picked wealth over human rights and healthcare.
Let's not pretend that either human rights or healthcare were on the ballot in 2024.
Notice that they voted for "Trump" but that it's "government" that damaged their business. Curious.
The de minimus exemption was never meant to be used as a loophole by any business, big or small. He's basically admitting tax fraud. "I bought lots of sub $800 orders to avoid paying taxes and it's the only thing that kept me profitable!"
That's sounds roughly equivalent to "structuring" in the money laundering industry.
Look, he voted for Trump too. Clearly the guy doesn't think anything through or even have good ideas.
Thats not it at all. Theres a big difference between 15% import taxes and 200%
that is what the de minimis loophole is though, and it is ideologically consistent with tariffs and trumps economic view so it is what he voted for
Memeseteal-ception
Well it's safe to say someone got owned
It’s safe to say he’s not owning any business anymore
Literally everyone warned you. Everyone.
But you wanted to "own the libs" so those leopards you let brainwash and manipulate you are now feasting on faces.
Conservatism is, as always, a complete failure of empathy, a lack of ability to recognise that if you don’t care about other people and you choose to put people who also don’t care about other people in charge, the people in charge simply and absolutely don’t care about you or your friends or your family.
Conservatives don’t understand that “them” and “us” are actually all just us.
No more DEI, no more LGBTQ. You losing your business was totally worth it right? Thats what you voted for.
I don't know, "Steffi" sounds like a very DEI name if you ask me /s
I actually really like seeing these.
You dumbs fucks did this to yourselves, the unfortunate part is that they were not smart enough to understand what was really happening and what was going to happen.
The unfortunate part is all the misery they will cause for the good people (and I don't mean one political party or another).
The enshittification of the world (which has been happening for a while) is picking up speed because of these dumb fucks.
omg I want that as a bumper sticker so bad
All I ever want to say to these people is: YOU DUMB FUCK. YOU STUPID GODDAMN FUCK. YOU SCREWED US ALL WITH YOUR STUPIDITY.
People like this are dumb as fuck and deserve their misfortune.
i love this comm but its sad that most of these people will probably do mental gymnastics to stay a far right nazi.
"Why did Biden do this to us?"
But he owned the libs, right?
Owned himself to own the libs. Good work, buddy, you sure showed 'em. 🙄
Clearly he was a lib as well
I'm afraid with his business going down, the best he can do is rent the libs.
Austin Wade Petersen (born February 19, 1981) is an American writer, political activist, commentator, and broadcaster. He is the host of the Wake Up America show daily newscast. He was the runner-up for the Libertarian Party's nomination for President of the United States in 2016,[1] finishing second place to Gary Johnson with 21.9% of the vote.[2][3]
And he will never ever actually try to find or figure out the answer to his own question, just wait to be told what to think
Democracy cannot survive an electorate that is this fucking stupid.
Probably why it's not
paying the taxes
LMAO, swing and a miss...
I mean, they will pay them. And then charge more for product to cover the additional cost. It's a lot easier to tolerate that in the short term if you're bigger.
I find it amusing they though they'd be safe from the increased tariffs under a de minimis limit. That's a thing that could have happened, but that tends to benefit small purchasers over large ones which is the opposite of GOP thinking and is also no something Trump et al had ever mentioned, so I don't know why they would expect it?
For anyone that doesn't know, de minimis is a tariff exception for small purchases, basically that it's not worth the administrative cost of levying the tariff for fiddling small change, so if it's a small enough shipment they won't bother.
If you thought Trump was ever going to help you or keep his word on anything, you are just aggressively, ferociously stupid. You knew EXACTLY what he was and was warned 1000 times what he was. You got told.
These are like Herman Cain awards and I'm as here for it as I was for those.
I loved that sub so much, morbid sure, but it felt like a little bit of well-deserved karma!
Didn't Herman Cain awardees die of their poor choices?
I mean... that's what happened to Hermain Cain, so... yes?
You get exactly what you fucking deserve you stain on humanity. I pray you starve to death in the streets so everyone can see what your malicious selfishness has earned you.
Edit: downvote all you want, these monsters only understand empathy as applied to them, their continued living does nothing for humanity - their messy, miserable, self inflicted death for all to see might actually teach some people something.
From another post, in case you think my initial assessment too harsh -
Aww, thoughts and prayers...idiot.
I will never get tired of seeing posts here
It's the only way they'll learn... If only they were capable of learning.
I feel thoroughly owned. Well done.
You can’t beat stupid
You're not part of the club, dumbass.
Small government enjoyer just got owned
FAFO, dipshit!
Ah yes. The serotonin hit I just received from resding this was divine. This is one of the most satisfying FAFO's I've seen recently
This is not a battle between good and evil.
This a battle between stupid and evil. And stupid is scoring home run after home run!
He's so close to making that connection
Is he though
Note to self: Face-eating leopards nearly always arrive hungry.
I hope Steffi leaves him for a better man (although there's a good chance she voted Trump too, in that case I hope the better man dump her)
Well he can get an exemption if he pays a $10 million consulting fee to Ballard Partners. I assume he's okay with that, because that's what he voted for.
If this dork were a REAL capitalist he’d know that money flows to where it is utilized most efficiently. Lesser enterprises are best killed off. Charming small businesses are for the weak!
/s
oh wow money and power worshipping billionaires only supports big brands? I am completely shocked I must say
Seems more like a self own.
As we say in France...cheh !
