Funny thing is, even Nero wasn’t this blatantly corrupt and evil. Most of the myth of the ‘fiddling while Rome burned’ story came as propaganda from his enemies (long after he was dead too). What we’re seeing here is undeniable proof that Trump is the biggest POS in America

They still have Kevlar helmets and weapons though… still dangerous. Pathetic and (if America still had any justice left) illegal, but still dangerous

Damn, traffic was that bad huh?

I’m shocked. Shocked, I say! Well, not that shocked

In this case, I think it’s less about the number of drivers (though, admittedly, if there were an infinite number of qualified bus drivers, this problem wouldn’t exist) and more about the ludicrous and frankly-insulting laws that have been passed directly to benefit those who already have more benefits in life than the rest of us

I mean, it still doesn’t make that much sense (I feel like almost every child on those busses would be able to say which side is right or wrong in this case), but I see where you’re coming from

What the actual fuck. So first, the politicians force the busses to prioritize transporting the rich kids, forcing the poor kids to have to use public systems (if they even exist) or, worse, services like Uber. The schools themselves tried to get bus passes for their students, but then a student was shot in the head at a bus stop and killed, so now the way the politicians solve the problem they created is making it illegal for schools to buy bus vouchers… because obviously it was the fault of the schools, right?

This is just another convoluted way in a history FULL of convoluted ways to try to kill off the poor, the disenfranchised, and the non-white

True, but now who’s going to do anything about it?

Who would you rather have as a surgeon? The one who did all their coursework by hand and graduated with Bs or the straight-A superstar who got a full ride to John Hopkins by using ChatGPT and just hiding their tracks better than the rest of the class? I’m not saying those are the only two options, but there’s definitely a reason we shouldn’t be so cavalier with cheating

I am embarrassed to be American. But I’m also too poor to do anything about it

Up in blazes you say?

Only after I can afford to get away with it

Ah yes because, as we all know, you MUST pass classes in order to participate in society. And clearly no one can ever possibly cheat because it’s against the rules. Problem solved!
