Remember, it's culturally insensitive to ask someone "how they're doing." Stick to Dystopia-Friendly Pleasantries instead like:
"I sure hope aliens invade the earth."
"I see you're awake, my condolences!"
"Are you sufficiently caffeinated?"
"The bags under your eyes look great!"
"Would you like to look at pictures of cats?"

il modo in cui lui aveva messo d’accordo tutta la popolazione mondiale l’anno scorso, le nonne le mamme le figlie le lesbiche i gay i theater kids la bolla bridgertoniana i pazzi dello stan twitter, la cosa più vicina alla pace nel mondo che vivrò nella mia intera esistenza

This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban in Afghanistan thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby says the US should have a national wealth tax, & inheritance taxes approaching 100% for the wealthiest.
Kirby said wealth inequality has become a danger to society, and that a wealth tax needs to be national because the rich would simply move to avoid state-level ones.

Since taking office, the Ontario Conservative government has underfunded public education by $6.5 billion. David Mastin, @ETFOpresident, explains the impact on students to thousands at the Toronto rally to defend publicly funded education. #OntEdUnited

Read this.👇 Ford has underfunded education by $6.5 BILLION. Meanwhile Doug gives $10M taxpayer $ to his strip club owner buddy, buys himself a luxury gravy plane, his MPPs wasting taxpayer 💰💰 staying in downtown luxury hotels and so on and so on, folks😡

ALT A painting on a pink canvas featuring a white duck wearing a pink polka-dot party hat tied under its chin. The duck has rosy pink cheeks and open wings as it poses against the background. Red hand-painted text surrounds the duck, reading: "ALWAYS LEAVE THEM WANTING TO KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU".

Why would Bradford want to break-up the Toronto Water Dept, which works well, nobody has raised à concern about and consistently delivers safe water??
Because privatization lobbyists
“It’s high risk”
Experts discuss Bradford’s plan to give up control of Toronto Water Dept, giving Doug Ford the power to privatize it without city approval

High-speed rail can spend decades stuck in planning and approval, yet data centers seem to spring up almost overnight, often with communities and ecosystems left to deal with the consequences. It’s wild how quickly we can build infrastructure for corporate profit compared to infrastructure that serves the public.

This is demonstrably true. Previously, each Vatnik Soup thread received between 300k and 5M impressions. Now, we're lucky if we get 100k.
Our annual views have dropped from 700M to 280M. Posts about Ukraine shared by accounts with millions of followers barely get any traction, whereas our more generic posts about AI, for example, can get millions of views.
Ukraine is still one of the hottest topics on this platform, yet voices supporting the country are being throttled, just like Starlink/Starshield was.

That’s what Conservatives do. They privatize healthcare. Because they get rich that way. They can’t stand to see all those tax dollars going into public healthcare. They want your tax dollars and they absolutely will abuse it.
