Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

Controlled opposition by design
Hanlon’s Razor disagrees
lol
You’re telling me you think they can’t fail more completely? They’re clearly either not trying at failing or not trying at succeeding.
Either way they’re inept.
Corporate America (bankers, markets, etc.) prefer it this way. This isn’t a conspiracy theory — bankers have run the show (entirely) since the early 70s.
Ah yes, “(((bankers)))”
Sure bud. Humans are terrible at this shit.
Goddamnit, no, actual bankers of many faiths (or lack thereof) gained leverage and a majority “stake” at the table by buying munis and treasuries when literally ALL bids ceased during the stagflation era of the 70s.
When it comes to politics Hanlon's razor provides a distinction without a difference.
I think stupidity is harder to deal with than malice.
you're free to think that, but i disagree.
