Summary
Billionaires like Marc Andreessen, Elon Musk, and Vivek Ramaswamy are spreading false claims to discredit the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), a federal agency protecting consumers from fraud and abuse.
Andreessen falsely accused the CFPB of politically motivated “debanking,” despite no evidence.
This rhetoric aligns with the “DOGE” project, led by Musk and Ramaswamy, which aims to slash government regulations and programs under the guise of efficiency.
Critics warn this effort will harm public services, benefit billionaires, and push privatization at the expense of ordinary Americans.
Where do you think Jefferson’s Black descendents come from? Who do you think paid the bounties for scalps? Germ theory wasn’t invented yet, they didn’t know why beer was safe to drink or why they needed to bathe. Settlers thought it was strange how the natives would strip naked and bathe in rivers - so uncivilized! Unlike Europeans, who would bathe as little as possible as to preserve their modesty.
All of this is easily looked up.
Your idols were evil morons. Read a history book.
Literally just spreading grade-school level misinfo because you never progressed past that level of understanding of history, lmao.
I say “if true” and you immediately conflate this to “it’s not true”.
You people wouldn’t survive outside of your echo chamber, I’m sure that’s why you’re here. There’s no room for independent thought, nuance, or critical thinking. You repeate a narrative and jack each other off all day, it’s disgusting.
Ah yes, the independent thought and nuance of repeating the propaganda fed to you by your own government. You’re such a free thinker!
I recommend reading Lies My Teacher Told Me. Then, when you finish that, A People’s History of the United States.
But I doubt you’ve ever read even one history book that wasn’t assigned to you by a teacher.
lmao, imagine seriously recommending either.
You seem so sure of your assumptions as you mock me as a free thinker. How rich.
I can’t help but notice you didn’t deny it.
I don’t need to, you made the claim, burden of proof is on you and I couldn’t give a shit less what you think. It’s just so amusing watching you behave exactly as I’ve come to expect from this community.
I literally gave you books as citations.
But you don’t read books, so I’ll give you Wikipedia.
Jefferson has Black descendents and had a Black “mistress” who was, in actuality, his slave. Her name was Sarah Hemings.
During the Revolution, the Sullivan Expedition was ordered by George Washington to wipe out Iroquois villages that sided with the British. Scalping was widely practiced.
Bathing letting in bad airs is known as miasma theory. It was widely practiced all across Europe, from peasants to merchants to royalty. Tribes like the Wampanoag noted how fucking nasty they all smelled.
No Wikipedia for this one, but https://www.grunge.com/591432/the-staggering-amount-of-alcohol-the-founding-fathers-drank/
Now, how about you learn some history?
Look, I don’t care. It’s irrelevant to my point if they were bad people. The only reason I brought up the founders was to say even they, who stood up a government, didn’t trust the government.
🤡
You say “even they” as if it justifies your beliefs, because they agree with you. Libertarianism grew from their classical liberalism. So what? Their ideas were shit.
