Liberal media (CNN/MSNBC/etc) are reviving that “Trump is mentally ill” BS again. They are even using appeals to authority via psychiatrists to legitimize this claim (bc who are you to argue with a psychiatrist, presumably a foremost expert on mental health?) Forget about the fact diagnosing someone without a personal evaluation is considered unethical.
Mentally ill & non-mentally PoC have been telling people this take is trash for a variety of reasons now. If you’re going to absolve white supremacy, you might as well just do it explicitly. This is yet another way that liberals either tacitly or knowing try to avoid the obvious: Trump is an unabashed representation of everything America stands for & they are trying to preserve its reputation by pathologizing him. It erases the impact of white supremacy & therefore endorses it.
the entirety of apple products is just an example of how we’ll never be able to stop capitalism because if it goes any further we’ll just accept it. like there is no reasonable explanation to the fact that people will pay 30 dollars for something that cost 50 cents to make other than that we are complacent in our own societal demise
“we slow phones down on purpose” “we took out the headphone jack so now you have to pay for adapters” “we literally took out the USB DRIVE. on a LAPTOP. and are charging 40 bucks for a mini usb cable that is functionally useless” “oh we also pay our workers 10% of a fucking living wage”
people: ok cool as long as the message bubble is blue
