So is it time for 1788 France now?
Yes
Great, so the Cheeto declared himself King now. I'm trying to remember what people did to resolve the problems with kings in the past...
Something in French.
the TIMES magazine has been fellating the king for a while now.
This is a Photoshop / "artistic rendering" from the Whitehouse. The real Time magazine has never bestowed the honor of a cover to the Cheeto.
Edit: Apparently, I just made shit up. Trump first appeared on Time magazine in 1989.
Wasn't he on the cover when he was Time Person of the Year twice? In 2016, and again in 2024?
The Trump presidency never ceases to amaze me with how entirely lacking in class they are.
Is there a reason conservatives dislike congestion pricing other than spite?
Gods, they're just the worst fucking people.
Cars checks all the boxes to them - helps with segregation, creates demand for oil, multiple vectors for environmental destruction, weird nostalgia and culture war fodder, another subsidy for rural/suburban voters, and it's the embodiment of not giving a shit about anyone else's and being a big boy. But yeah each of the individual factors boils down to spite.
They also make people a lot angrier. Angrier people are easier to manipulate
.
The stupidest part to me is that toll roads work this way and are wildly popular with conservatives. They're just angry it's a public thing and that it's for public transportation support and not to make some private company money.
Thing is…this is just another toll. It bills you the same as all the other tolls in the city. They just gave it a different name. That’s it. In the first days, people were bitching because they took the trains and the busses, but everyone who isn’t an asshole (those of us who don’t drive) didn’t even realize it took effect and everyone was like “woah, what’s going on? Is it a holiday? It was so quiet on my way to work. It was awesome.”
But these motherfuckers
They're just angry it's a public thing [...] and not to make some private company money.
This is always the case
