  • “In other news the local distribution centre has restructured its operations to streamline customer synergy and unfortunately has had to let its administrative assistant go to persue other interests.”

    The thing about this is that I just made that up, no source, nothing to verify and given that the article identifies a person with full name and place, as well as their role and industry is likely to be uniquely identifiable and a prime candidate for being fired…

    … unless the story was made up or the intent is to assassinate either the company or the person.

    Ask yourself, who is the intended audience, what does the author of this article intend to achieve and will this article achieve that?

    1. Frank Grimes is a one-off character from a cartoon called The Simpsons.
    2. The Hard Times is a satire website.
    3. The man mentioned in the article does not exist.
    4. You are commenting in a community for shitposts about The Simpsons.


















  • “THERE WILL BE NO REMATCH,” Trump said on his Truth Social platform. “SO THERE IS NOTHING TO DEBATE.”

    Trotting out the classics, huh? Big “If we did less testing, we’d have less COVID cases” energy.

    Trump said it was very late in the process now to have a debate.

    The second Presidential Debate in 2020 took place on Oct. 22nd. This invitation from Fox News is for Oct. 24th or 27th. And the original CNN debate was scheduled for Oct. 23rd so fuck right off with that excuse, coward.

    Cool, now which is easier to build movements under, a fascist regime, or a moderate milquetoast capitalist regime?

    Let’s be real here, the kind of person ranting on the internet about “ThE DuOpOlY” is not actually interested in building anything at all. They just like to stomp their feet, and shout “no fair!” over and over again like the petculant children they are, while the grownups are busy trying to prevent the country from descending into fascism.
