Workers united!

This is the wrong argument and I'm tired of it. The real argument here is - McDonald's et al don't need to raise prices because of the new wage law. They choose to raise prices rather than cut executive pay, or adjust profit margins, or make any other kind of internal adjustments.

This discussion needs to stop being "x raised prices because they had to and government bad" and start being "Billion-dollar-profit company is screwing over consumers because they can".

America's Smartest Man Finds Something Interesting

Yeah, this is a really weird flex. They're taking work from the author of The Mass Psychology of Fascism, which in a general sense can be used to compare Nazism to the current MAGA movement, but saying that those susceptible to it are... Beta males?

If these mental gymnastics were any more complex they would have won gold in France last week.
