I didnt have much to begin with only lost about 12k, I have nothing anyway. My mother lost roughly 100k in her retirement fund from all this crashing. My grandmother even more. How much have you lost in Trump’s Tantrum Tariffs game?

I mean this sucks for people who are already retired, people who were about to retire, and people who weren’t watching their trades or paying any sort of attention. I personally haven’t been effected that much just yet. Just usually if you were to do this sort of thing you’d set out like a 10 year plan you sign into law rather than this that causes harm.
In the past I would have cheered this. But I am wiser now and know that unless the stock market is being abolished the rich can lose 99% of their wealth and be fine while everyone else drops dead. Your assumptions are ill informed and draw correlations to conclusions that only make sense in small scopes. Almost as if you’re just saying divisive stuff. Hmm…
i don’t even have the right to retire anymore… am i supposed to be sad for the people who wanted fascism to happen the most?
Yes, way I see it, a lot of these people might just be alright as long as the democratic and social wellbeing propaganda is flooding the airwaves. But guess what’s flooding the airwaves right now. I think that societies that actually take the steps to install correct social safety nets like healthcare and the like actually do step into the light. I think the fix is so simple that hundreds of billions have to be spent to suppress and spin so it doesnt happen.
So you should feel bad, for everything. This place could be so bitchin’, but its not. The solutions are mystical or unknown or out of reach for mankind. They’re locked away and obscured because very powerful people want it this way. And I’m not talking about some absolute utopia being possible, what I mean is it doesnt have to be this stressful and crushing all the time. But the only way we get there as The People is if we spark, force, and maintain the change ourselves and agree on it by looking at available data. Unfortunately all that data shows that everything American Moguls love makes everything suck. So we arrive back at my first paragraph.

i mostly agree, except we can want a better world while simultaneously being frustrated with the people standing in the way of it.
Yeah and I guess I just want to believe that most people aren’t this bad or can be ‘saved’ in a way. But thats in no way fact and I need to remember that.
Meh, I am already retired and doesn’t suck for me. Now for people who were just about to take out a big chunk and sell it all, yeah, the timing sucks.
But unless you are planning on selling right now, all good. The market will come back. And most rich people are actually buying up stock right now and laughing at the panic sellers. This happens every single dip.
Just because I say something divisive, doesn’t mean I’m doing it on purpose. You do realize that some people just have different opinions than you, right? Hence the election results.
My point being, not everything is a trick or troll statement. I believe what I said; in spite of you finding it divisive, not because it’s divisive.
For the record, my gf totally disagrees with me, and is making the really really silly mistake of panic selling. Even tho I showed her facts and historical context. She’s making a huge mistake. And I’m sure I’ll hear all about it when the market comes back up and I profit (small, but still profit).
