The fed is raising interest rates to trigger a recession to lower inflation. They made a power point, everyone clapped. The news is telling us to eat our medicine.
The other way to lower inflation is to raise taxes on the rich.

Rapists should die. They're looking for ways that sexual predators could be allowed in society. But theyre really your fault. They're a fringe of your group identity. Idk man maybe stop being so fucking gross.

Rehabilitate sexual predators? I don't think cutting off dicks is a solution, just because then they're rapists without dicks. That seems like a way to mess them up even more.

I agree, most men aren't qualified to represent women. Men can be really dumb towards women. Especially the closeted gay religious zealots. 30% representation is really the lowest standard. It's not great. We obviously need representation and having women around helps men be less gross. To each other and to women.

Reply to comment by ExtremePrivilege in TIL that on average women live five years longer than men, and that by age 85 around 67% of the population is female in the US. by Successful-Depth-235
The biggest health risk for men is heart failure. And men with higher T have increased risk for heart attack and stroke.
Very few men are roofers. Or deep sea fisherman, Most men work in an office or retail setting. Most jobs are not building the Hoover dam.
Twice as many men own guns. I'm emotionally intelligent enough to understand that I've been depressed before and probably shouldn't have easy access to a gun.
And media plays a role in loneliness. Masculinity is played for joining the military vets have a high suicide rate from gun death. My uncle.
Masculinity is also played for adjusting identity to political party. It has self isolating messaging to make men more available to consume more propaganda. It sort of subverts group identity. It's more efficient if there's less people to bounce it off of.
And then our technology is isolating us. In the 90's everyone knew each other. We walked around outside. And we had meeting places where our friends were.

It's just a joke. It's like the conservative men are complaining about equal pay for women in sports because they don't care about women's sports unless there's trans women involved and then they're telling their neighbors dog about it.
Men tend to have low emotional intelligence but is this that sexual competition with women thing. So it's an opportunity to tell women about male physical superiority. Idk why men are like that. I wish you could stop putting women down to jerk off your egos, and mind your own business. Its the world were raised in. Did they lower men's pay. No? Well then eyes front dickbag. You know? It's like a nice thing. So you're shitty that direction, but act like a white knight in the same sentence if there's a trans woman. It's funny.

Right we have to recapture the IRS and a majority in Congress, I understand that. That's why the fed is creating a recession because we cant lower inflation with an act of Congress to raise taxes on the wealthy because they're already owned.
