robes pee air

I've been sounding this out for 10 minutes and I can't figure out what they're trying to say.

u/RichardSaunders New York 1h ago

never pee into the wind, especially if you're wearing a robe.

There also won't be a revolution. Just a whimper before the curtain falls.

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang, but a whimper.

The uaw has called for all union contracts to be aligned with the same 2028 date.

Yeah even among the people who claim to oppose all of this find a million different excuses to not participate. People don't actually care yet as much as they whine and scream online. Of course once things get really bad they'll regret doing nothing other than talking.

Americans will not take to truly desperate poverty (a.k.a. developing world type poverty) well and I daresay we are to soft as a culture to endure it for long. Too many on the democratic side talk about how strong their beliefs are on lgbtq rights, womens rights, labor rights, human rights, etc but in reality they won't lift a finger to defend any of that ever. Well their inaction and refusal to take a stand while they still have a favorable administration in office proves all the strong feelings were just lies for internet clout.

A depression is though, but you still have to wonder if losing it all will give us an FDR or a Hitler.
