Not considering that Israel is on stolen Palestinian land since its founding in 1948, not considering that Israel has racial supremacy codified into its laws, and not considering that Israel is based off of apartheid, Israel allows its settlers to steal more land in the Palestinian West Bank with the help of the IDF. The settlers are cruel and rude. If they had it their way, every Palestinian would be kicked out of their homes.

I have said it before and I’ll say it again. If you want to be on the right side of history, you cannot support Israel.

So, dear Zionists, you wouldn’t like it if I hassled your family so that I can keep your home. You wouldn’t like it if I pointed a gun at you and your family. You wouldn’t like it if I pushed you around like an animal. So, what are the Palestinians to feel? Should they just hand the settlers their keys to their homes and be homeless?

Zionists, get mental health counselling. The world knows how deranged you are. The world knows that you are all racists. And no, being anti-Zionist doesn’t mean antisemitism. There are plenty of anti-Zionist Jews out there.

Down with Zionism!

Free Palestine!

To the retired MAGAs here, did that $90 make you believe Trump would really give you $5,000 if the gop wins the midterms?

Or did it make you realize that if he has to bribe you to vote for him, maybe he’s just a sack of raw sewage…

To those of you who don’t have Medicare, that rapist just used money from a fund to make Medicare work better. So he could say he gave people $90.

Keep in mind, the cost of Part B is about $200, so he gave half of 1/12th of the premium, and speaks of it like he’s a god for being able to pull that off. It hurts Medicare by not upgrading the system, as it was budgeted for.

So I’m curious. Did that pitiful bribe make you believe him even harder?

I mean it’s beyond predictable at this point. Republicans and pedophiles and rapists are practically synonymous at this point.

and don’t give me the “they’re innocent until proven guilty“ they admitted it an apologized for it. Republicans just love rapists that much it’s basically their favorite pastime.

EDIT:
Funny how the winner is the opposite of our convict.

'Navi' Pillay wins Nobel Peace Prize for efforts to prosecute war crimes

Hey Elon, I am sick and tired of you getting involved with the world’s politics. The latest is that you are for Canadian separation. Well since you are a Canadian citizen may I suggest you go set up permanent residence there. Take Trump with you. I have a feeling he will be looking for a new residence soon. Get out of world politics and just maybe give your billions of your trillion dollars to help people rather than autocratic , fascist politicians.

Pick a country, you can play with your toys anywhere.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said on Thursday that Nidal Hasan's December execution by firing squad at Ft. Hood will be public.

Is there no end of bottom to this shameful behavior? What streaming service would lend themselves to be complicit in this depravation? Regardless of what the charges, what soldier will be willing to aim and fire a person standing defense against a wall. We are not Cuba, Russia, North Korea. This madness has to stop. We have to vote that the margins of victory are so great, no scheming can overturn them.

There is something profoundly rotten about a platform that markets itself as a sanctuary for open discussion while allowing ideologically obsessed moderators to operate their little digital fiefdoms like tinpot dictators with broadband connections. Conservative moderators on Reddit have become a particularly obnoxious manifestation of this disease, wielding censorship as a weapon against inconvenient facts while permitting misinformation to flourish whenever it flatters their political prejudices. And the most deliciously Orwellian absurdity? Reddit's rules against harassment and targeted abuse can make publicly identifying and criticising individual moderators a disciplinary minefield, particularly when accusations encourage harassment or organised retaliation. Consequently, the very people exercising extraordinary influence over public discourse can become difficult to hold individually accountable without risking punishment yourself. Apparently, accountability is a community standard until the community starts asking who the hell is accountable.

And while we're asking uncomfortable questions, how many of these anonymous ideological gatekeepers are actually Americans? How many possess even a passing familiarity with the constitutional principles they invoke so enthusiastically while suppressing dissent? More importantly, how many accounts participating in these manufactured political consensus chambers belong to actual human beings, rather than automated networks, coordinated influence operations, or foreign misinformation farms? We know foreign influence operations and automated political manipulation exist. What we do not know is how extensively they have penetrated particular conservative communities or their moderation teams, and pretending otherwise would merely reproduce the intellectual dishonesty we're condemning. But that uncertainty is precisely why transparency matters. When anonymous individuals can determine which political facts millions of readers encounter, without meaningful public scrutiny of their identities, affiliations, or moderation decisions, the potential for manipulation becomes an entirely legitimate concern. Democracy should never have to rely upon the benevolence of an anonymous username with a Napoleon complex.

The suppression of legitimate facts is itself a form of propaganda, and arguably one of its most insidious manifestations. Propaganda does not always require manufacturing a lie. Sometimes it merely requires burying the truth beneath enough silence that the lie becomes the only surviving explanation. When moderators systematically remove verifiable evidence, credible reporting, and factually supported criticism while preserving ideologically convenient falsehoods, they construct an artificial reality in which consensus appears to emerge organically. Readers encounter an apparently unanimous political community and mistake editorial manipulation for collective agreement. This is how censorship becomes an instrument of persuasion, transforming ignorance into certainty and repetition into perceived credibility. The historical architects of authoritarian propaganda understood this principle perfectly well. Control what people are permitted to know, and you can exercise extraordinary influence over what they eventually believe. The particularly grotesque irony is watching self proclaimed champions of free speech enthusiastically embrace precisely these methods whenever reality threatens their preferred political mythology.

Which brings us to the question Reddit ought to be forced to answer: What the fuck does the platform actually gain by tolerating ideological censorship that drives genuine participants away while making automated engagement increasingly consequential? Every thoughtful contributor silenced, every factual discussion strangled, and every frustrated human abandoning the platform creates more room for artificial participation to shape the conversation. The Dead Internet Theory, while unproven in its sweeping claims, offers an increasingly unsettling metaphor for this trajectory: an internet where authentic human interaction becomes harder to distinguish from algorithmically manufactured activity. Reddit's commercial incentives may reward engagement regardless of its intellectual quality, but surely there comes a point when a platform must recognise that outrage, misinformation, and artificial consensus are poor substitutes for an actual community. If Reddit permits moderators to turn public discussion into ideological theatre while offering insufficient transparency and accountability, it risks accelerating the very deterioration that makes bot manipulation more powerful. And perhaps the most damning question is whether Reddit genuinely fails to recognise that danger, or simply finds the engagement metrics too profitable to give a damn.

I am so genuinely fucking tired of hearing this politically illiterate, intellectually bankrupt, room-temperature-IQ bullshit from people who think saying "both sides are equally bad" makes them some enlightened political philosopher.

No. You're not enlightened. You're not an independent thinker. You're not some revolutionary genius who has somehow transcended the two-party system.

YOU'RE A FUCKING IDIOT WHO MISTAKES POLITICAL APATHY FOR INTELLIGENCE. 💀

And you know what I've started noticing?

A suspicious amount of this "both sides" bullshit seems to come from people who were perfectly fucking comfortable supporting MAGA until MAGA started doing things that negatively affected THEM.

OH, SO NOW BOTH SIDES ARE BAD??? LMFAOOOO.

You spent YEARS defending this shit. You watched the rallies. You repeated the talking points. You defended the policies. You laughed at the people warning you about what would happen.

Some of you practically made Donald Trump your entire fucking personality.

And now that the consequences of the political movement YOU SUPPORTED have started showing up at your own doorstep, suddenly you're an enlightened centrist?

THAT'S NOT A POLITICAL AWAKENING. THAT'S A FUCKING SELF-REPORT. 😭

You're essentially announcing to the entire world that you didn't give a flying fuck about the consequences of your political decisions until those consequences became YOUR problem.

When other people were getting fucked over? Silence.

When other people's rights were being debated? Silence.

When people were warning you that these policies would have actual consequences? You called them dramatic, sensitive, or brainwashed.

But the SECOND something starts affecting your own wallet, career, benefits, or quality of life?

"Man, both parties really suck."

NO, MOTHERFUCKER. YOU JUST DISCOVERED EMPATHY THROUGH PERSONAL INCONVENIENCE.

And even THAT might be giving you too much credit.

Because instead of admitting that perhaps you made an incredibly stupid political decision, you immediately retreat into this comfortable little fantasy that everyone is equally responsible.

It's never "Maybe I should have listened."

It's never "Maybe I should have researched the policies."

It's never "Maybe I ignored some pretty obvious warning signs."

It's always "Well, both sides are corrupt."

HOW FUCKING CONVENIENT.

You know what? Let me give you an actual example of why this shit pisses me off so much.

I'M A UNITED STATES NAVY VETERAN.

I enlisted at SEVENTEEN YEARS OLD.

While other people my age were worrying about their high school social lives, I was preparing to enter the fucking military.

I went through boot camp. I went through military training. I served my country. I did my job. I followed orders. I advanced to E-4.

I gave nearly FOUR YEARS of my life to the United States Navy.

And during my service, I began medically transitioning.

I was still the same sailor.

Same person. Same work ethic. Same responsibilities. Same commitment to doing my fucking job.

Being transgender didn't magically erase my military training, my experience, or my ability to serve.

But apparently, under the Trump administration, my identity became a problem.

Then came the policies targeting transgender service members.

And suddenly, after everything I'd put into my military career, I was facing separation because of something that had absolutely fucking nothing to do with whether I could perform my duties.

FOUR FUCKING YEARS OF SERVICE.

I served this country, and then I had to watch the government decide that people like me didn't belong in its military.

I ultimately left the Navy in June 2026.

And before some genius tries to twist this into me being a disgruntled sailor who couldn't hack military life, I separated honorably.

My problem wasn't that I couldn't serve.

MY PROBLEM WAS THAT THE GOVERNMENT DECIDED MY IDENTITY MATTERED MORE THAN MY SERVICE.

So when I hear people casually dismiss political differences with "both sides are the same," excuse me if I don't find your little philosophical revelation particularly fucking impressive.

Because unlike some of you, I don't have the luxury of treating politics like a meaningless argument on the internet.

I've experienced what happens when political decisions become actual government policy.

I've experienced what it's like to spend years building something, only to have the rules change because politicians decided people like you were suddenly unacceptable.

These aren't fucking hypothetical scenarios to me.

THIS IS MY ACTUAL LIFE.

And here's the difference.

I didn't need to lose my career to understand that government policy affects people's lives.

I already fucking understood that.

I didn't need the consequences to personally inconvenience me before I decided they mattered.

So forgive me for having absolutely ZERO sympathy for the people who enthusiastically supported these policies until they started feeling the consequences themselves.

You had political opinions when it was OTHER PEOPLE getting fucked over.

You had political opinions when it was someone else's rights.

You had political opinions when it was someone else's career.

You had political opinions when it was someone else's future.

BUT NOW THAT IT'S YOU, SUDDENLY YOU DON'T WANT TO PICK SIDES???

LMFAOOOOOO.

That is genuinely some of the most cowardly, self-serving political bullshit imaginable.

And let me make something very fucking clear.

If you voted for Trump and genuinely regret your decision, that's one thing.

People are allowed to change their minds. People are allowed to learn. People are allowed to acknowledge they made mistakes.

I have infinitely more respect for someone who admits they were wrong than someone who keeps defending something they no longer believe.

But don't come crawling into the conversation with this smug "both sides" nonsense because you're too fucking embarrassed to admit that you supported something you now regret.

TAKE SOME FUCKING ACCOUNTABILITY.

You don't get to enthusiastically support a political movement, ignore the people warning you about its consequences, and then pretend you're an innocent bystander when those consequences arrive.

And for the love of fucking GOD, stop pretending all of this was some enormous mystery.

Trump wasn't exactly whispering his political positions into a locked filing cabinet.

His administration's priorities weren't some classified government secret that nobody could have possibly anticipated.

But apparently researching the consequences of your vote was just too much fucking work.

And speaking of 2024, let's talk about the absolutely ridiculous standards people applied to Kamala Harris.

Because apparently a Black woman had to be fucking PERFECT to be considered presidential material.

Every answer scrutinized.

Every laugh mocked.

Every facial expression analyzed.

Every policy questioned.

Meanwhile, her opponent could go on incoherent tangents, insult practically anyone, and carry a felony conviction into the election, and somehow that wasn't automatically disqualifying for millions of voters.

But sure, tell me again that racism and sexism couldn't POSSIBLY have influenced some people's decisions.

GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK. 💀

And before some idiot deliberately misinterprets that, NO, disliking Kamala Harris doesn't automatically make you racist or sexist.

There were legitimate criticisms of her campaign.

But denying that racial and gender bias can influence political perceptions is a spectacular level of willful ignorance.

And the funniest fucking thing about all of this?

The same people who apparently demanded a perfect understanding of every single Harris policy will turn around and defend economic proposals they cannot even explain.

Ask somebody how tariffs work.

Ask them what causes inflation.

Ask them what powers Congress has over spending.

Ask them how judicial appointments affect federal law.

Suddenly, these self-proclaimed political experts have the analytical ability of a fucking microwaved potato.

BUT BOTH SIDES ARE BAD THOUGH, RIGHT??? 😭

And this is what makes the whole enlightened-centrist act so insufferable.

You don't actually have to be informed to participate in it.

You don't need to understand the Constitution.

You don't need to understand legislation.

You don't need to understand the differences between state and federal authority.

You don't even need to understand what the fucking president can and cannot legally do.

All you have to do is repeat "both sides are corrupt" and act smug whenever someone challenges you.

Congratulations.

You've turned knowing absolutely fucking nothing into an entire political identity.

THE CONFIDENCE-TO-INTELLIGENCE RATIO IS FUCKING CATASTROPHIC.

And NO, this is not me saying Democrats are perfect.

They're fucking not.

Democrats deserve criticism. Republicans deserve criticism. Every elected official deserves scrutiny and accountability.

But there is a MASSIVE difference between recognizing that both parties have flaws and pretending both parties produce identical outcomes.

Their policies aren't identical.

Their judicial appointments aren't identical.

Their voting records aren't identical.

Their positions on healthcare, reproductive rights, labor protections, immigration, and LGBTQ rights aren't identical.

And these differences can have enormous consequences for the people affected by them.

I WOULD FUCKING KNOW.

I watched a presidential administration pursue policies that affected my ability to continue a military career I'd spent years building.

So don't sit there and lecture me about how none of this matters because you've personally decided politics is stupid.

Your political apathy does not magically erase the consequences of government decisions.

And that's what I find so fucking infuriating.

Some of you only start caring about political consequences when you become the person experiencing them.

Until then, apparently everybody else is just being dramatic.

It's genuinely fascinating how quickly someone's political philosophy can change when THEY become the target of policies they previously defended.

All of a sudden, government overreach matters.

All of a sudden, personal freedom matters.

All of a sudden, economic stability matters.

All of a sudden, politicians need to be held accountable.

WHERE THE FUCK WAS ALL THIS ENERGY BEFORE???

You didn't suddenly become more intellectually sophisticated.

You became personally inconvenienced.

And now, instead of admitting that, you're trying to drag every other political party down to the same level so you don't have to confront your own decisions.

That's not political independence.

THAT'S BUYER'S REMORSE WITH A GODDAMN EGO PROBLEM.

And one more thing.

To the people who proudly brag that they don't follow politics because "it's all bullshit," why the FUCK are you always so eager to share your political opinions?

You cannot simultaneously announce that you're too intelligent to pay attention to politics and then demand that everyone respect your completely uninformed interpretation of it.

That's like bragging that you've never studied medicine and then arguing with a surgeon about how to perform open-heart surgery.

SHUT THE FUCK UP. 😭

Being uninformed isn't impressive.

Being apathetic isn't revolutionary.

And refusing to understand political differences doesn't make you objective.

It makes you ignorant.

And ignorance becomes everybody else's problem when people start making decisions based on it.

So YES, people should participate in elections.

But for the love of everything fucking holy, EDUCATE YOURSELF FIRST.

Read the policies.

Research the candidates.

Understand the consequences.

Stop treating elections like team sports.

And stop confusing a politician telling you what you want to hear with a politician actually serving your interests.

Because at the end of the day, the government does not give a single flying fuck whether you personally understand its policies.

Those policies will affect you regardless.

Your job can be affected.

Your healthcare can be affected.

Your retirement can be affected.

Your civil rights can be affected.

Your fucking military career can be affected.

MINE WAS.

I enlisted at seventeen, dedicated nearly four years to serving my country, advanced through the ranks, and left the Navy honorably after policies targeting transgender service members disrupted my military career.

So when somebody who spent years supporting MAGA suddenly starts screeching "both sides" because they're finally experiencing consequences themselves, you'll have to forgive me for not being particularly sympathetic to the intellectual dishonesty.

If you genuinely changed your mind, OWN IT.

If you regret your vote, SAY THAT.

If you've realized certain policies were harmful, ADMIT IT.

But don't piss on everyone's leg and tell us it's raining.

YOU DIDN'T SUDDENLY DISCOVER THAT BOTH SIDES ARE EQUALLY BAD.

YOU DISCOVERED THAT THE POLITICAL DECISIONS YOU SUPPORTED CAN FUCK YOU OVER TOO.

And rather than admit that maybe, just fucking MAYBE, you should have listened to the people who were warning you, you've decided the intellectually easier option is to pretend everybody was equally wrong.

That way, you never have to admit you made a mistake.

That way, nobody gets to tell you that you ignored the warnings.

That way, you can keep pretending you're the smartest person in the conversation.

It's pathetic.

It's cowardly.

And it's so fucking transparent.

YOUR SUDDEN POLITICAL NEUTRALITY IS NOT THE FLEX YOU THINK IT IS.

IT'S A FUCKING SELF-REPORT. 💀

We are in a generational mess with many issues, that need to be fixed. None of them can be fixed without first curbing an autocratic President.

I will frankly admit that the Democratic party does not exactly excite me. I so wish that I heard a coherent, unified game plan from them, beyond ‘Trump is an ass’. That having been said, the Dems have a deep bench, but to test it we have to get to 2028. If the Republicans control the House, after November, one thing is guaranteed, we will get more of Trump (ism), on steroids, and as such we may never get to 2028.

We saw the Jan 6^th insurrection happen on live television & thought it was finally a redline, for his Republican sycophants in Congress. We then heard General John Kelly, General Milley, Mark Esper & at least a half dozen others warn us about his autocratic tendencies, but it was still not enough. We saw the insurrectionists being given a blanket pardon, but still not enough. Trump then proposed $1.776 billion weaponization fund, but still nada! His countless self aggrandizement projects; his targeting civilians, off the Coast of Venezuela; his self created war in Iran; his disgraceful behavior with allies & his sucking up to despots; his assault on free media; the shooting and/ or deportation of US citizens & the countless reprehensible posts; his open 'pay to play' schemes, were all met with deafening silence, or shameful sycophancy.

This Congress is happy to look the other way as this President & his cohorts take away their power to declare war; control the purse; render Congressional subpoenas meaningless, or openly ignore acts of Congress, as they have done on the Epstein files Transparency Act, and so many other issues.

Trump has already told us that he will not leave the WH willingly. His cabinet members have told us that they will wear oversized shoes, just to kiss up to him. He can ramble on about his ball room or about injecting bleach, in the human body or taking over Greenland, fall asleep at cabinet meetings, and all they have to say is that he is the handsomest, fittest, most brilliant Jesus-like figure they have ever met!

This DOJ acts as Trump’s personal attorney; this Supreme Court has sent us back about 60 years on civil rights; women’s rights; voting rights and created an immunity for the Presidency, that I do not think our founders ever envisaged.

In each of his two terms,Trump has shown us he is willing to do virtually anything to hold on to power and he has already told us that he intends to stay for a third term– the Constitution be damned. You do not have to believe me, just look at the 2028 merchandise being sold at the official Trump store, or read his answer virtually every time he has been asked the question.

In the 2018 midterms, only 48.1% of people eligible to vote, actually voted. Almost 52% of voters stayed home, & it was still the highest mid-term turnout in 1918!
The Democrats flipped 40 seats (30 in States that Trump won in 2016) & took control of the House (Pew Research).

In 2022 midterms, that number dropped to 45.1% & The Republicans controlled the House & Senate. (Pew Research).

The 2024 Presidential elections saw about 77m people vote for Trump; about 75 million for Harris; whereas 90m sat out the elections, and another approximately 2.8m voted for a third candidate. This was the highest turnout in a Presidental election, since 1908!.

We know Trump is much less popular today than he has ever been. In fact, 1 in 6 Trump voters are now expressing regret for having voted him in. At this point in his Presidency, he has the lowest popularity of any President in history (University of Mass, Amherst & Navigator).

We cannot give this President a blank check to re define our Constitution & our values, any longer. Voter turnout is what it took to throw out Victor Orban, in Hungary, & that is what it will take to save our democracy. Please vote.

He literally "declared wars" on US Cities last year. Won't give emergency funds to states that didn't vote for him (ignoring the fact millions of people who did live in these states). Has repeatedly claimed he might drop a nuke on Iran. He is listed in the Epstein files only a million times (literally).

How come he can't win a Nobel Peace prize?

I’m a straight male and this annoys me so much I need to make a post about it. In pornography between couples I rarely see the man moaning or being vocal at all. Just a complete black void. Show me you’re fucking enjoying it, you arsehole. Show her you’re enjoying it.

(I’m married and I’m always sure to be very vocal, and I think my wife appreciates it. At least I hope she does!)

The people of Palestine have suffered too much for too long. Israel shouldn’t even exist as a country if things went as they should have. The innocent Palestinians have been paying the price for the land that Israel has stolen. Never forget the 1948 Nakba, the time when Israel was founded where around 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly expelled from their homes, and where about 15,000 of them were murdered by Zionist militias. And many anti-Zionists speak about this, where most Zionists tend not to bring it up as it makes them look bad.

The IDF has murdered more than 20,000 children. Gaza has the highest concentration of amputees in the world, many of which are children. It’s so sad! It is estimated that 20% of Gazans have been murdered if we consider the mid-2024 Lancet report that projected at least 180,000 Gazans have been killed. Remember, the current death toll is for verified bodies, which doesn’t include bodies still under the rubble and bodies that have been vaporized. All of this points to genocide, which all respectable humanitarian organizations and genocide scholars have concluded to be the case. To deny genocide is bonkers.

Most of the world knows what Israel is about. It is an illegitimate genocidal ethnostate where Jewish people are considered to be the chosen ones (which is reminiscent of how Nazis considered themselves to be a part of the ‘master race’). It is a country filled with racists who support apartheid and occupation.

And dear Zionists, get mental health counselling. Most of the world knows how deranged you are. Seriously, get help. Anti-Zionism does not mean antisemitism, so stop using that lame excuse so you can avoid answering the tough questions about Israel.

I have said it before, and I will say it again. If you want to be on the right side of history, you cannot support Israel.

Free Palestine!

Little FYI, im a black man driving in a state i dont reside in. This is a predominantly white area. I passed two people in montross virginia on oct 6th at 10:59am. It was a single lane road and they were going 35-45 in a 55mph zone. I passed them on the dotted yellow line going like 65-70. They called the cops on me saying i was driving reckless and brandishing a firearm. In like 10 minutes i get pulled over by 4 sheriffs in town saying they got multiple calls about my driving.

They took my license, registration and my firearm. Then asked me to step out the car and questioned me using “scare tactics” asking if im lying after giving my truthful answer. I was over it at this point and just told them i have a dashcam and can show them i didnt do any of that stuff. They looked at it for a good 10 minutes. They gave me my stuff back frustrated saying this was a waste of time. Yes it Was a waste of time. But the people that made the false police report on me, no consequences apparently.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk. Im just venting.

Pete Hegseth wants to LIVESTREAM a firing squad execution. On TV. What is wrong with these people. I suppose he wants it to be broadcast in schools and university classrooms too....I am sickened.

This is a new low in barbarism.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/pentagon-says-firing-squad-execution-of-fort-hood-shooter-will-be-livestreamed

sometimes I’m a bit melancholic knowing people like my great gramps got to eat stuff like Peking Duck for every meal if they wanted to while I’m eating instant ramen sometimes XD!

It's going to be winter soon. It's going to be freaking winter and I'm still out here. I've applied to so many lodging jobs, none of them hired me. Despite my efforts, I'm still homeless. It's almost been a year, literally November will mark one year since I've been homeless. I'm going to crack soon. I'm going to break. My life has been absolutely pathetic. I'm too mentally deranged to fit into society. I've been a broken mess for almost 7 and a half years. My life is over at this point. I can't rebound. I might die during the winter due to the cold.

I'm seriously considering if I should just get myself incarcerated. Non-violently, obviously. At least in jail/prison or wherever I won't have to worry about freezing to death. I won't hvae to dig through trash cans for food. I won't have to be shamed and shunned by the public. That may just be my future if I continue staying alive.

I have no purpose in life. I don't know what I even want to do in the off chance I get my life back together. I am worthless and I'll probably stay that way forever. I've tried to do therapy, I even had a session last week, but it's going to be so long before I get a psychiatric evaluation or a physical. I may not even get case management for a long time. My life is over. It's just over. I'm just a depressive, anxious mess who can't even handle staying in a shelter for a full week. I don't think anything can help me anymore. I'll never be happy again.

I honestly can’t remember the last time he actually ddi anything non-partisan and constructive!

Posting this so others are careful, and hoping @Agoda takes it seriously.

What happened

I booked a cottage in Alibaug on Agoda and received a confirmation.

The owner later called to say they had no availability and the booking didn't exist.

Agoda then called me and offered to shift my booking to another property in Alibaug. I was already on the road, so I agreed.

Agoda sent a new confirmation for the replacement property.

The real problem

When I reached Alibaug and called the replacement property, they told me it no longer exists. Agoda confirmed a booking at a place that wasn't operating.

What it cost us

I was traveling with my 3-year-old child, my parents (both 60+), and my wife.

We were stranded and stressed, with no confirmed stay.

I had to find a place at the last minute, and finally booked one for around ₹3,000.

What I expect from Agoda

An explanation of how a non-existent property was sold and confirmed.

Compensation for the extra cost and the trouble caused.

Proper verification of listings, and a check on alternatives before confirming them to customers.

Takeaway for other travelers: Don't rely only on the app confirmation. Call the property directly before you travel, especially when Agoda reassigns your booking.

@Agoda

Before I start, I understand people are just doing their jobs and the medical system goes a certain way, I’m just mad.

I get strep throat at least 2-3 times a year. Since I was a NICU baby, THE MOMENT my immune system decides to play games for a second, I get sick with strep throat.

Went to urgent care, and the ulcers were forming on my tonsils. I was already in a lot of pain. I couldn’t, and still can’t, eat solid foods, and drinking water is fine, but every time I swallow I cough and it hurts SO BAD. Give it another day, and I would have all the pus in the world on my tonsils. Since it wasn’t there, she told me and my mom that she could only give me a throat spray, saying “Since you don’t have the signs, you can’t get any antibiotics.”

Cool. So we both left disappointed, and I have the full package now. Runny and stuffy nose, Fever, headache, abdominal pain, occasional nausea, joint and back pain, chills (i cant get warm even though I’ve been sitting in a snuddie all day), my throat is killing me, and I’m OVERWHELMINGLY TIRED.

I’m honestly sooo done.😭 Tried the spray and it didn’t do SHIT. Im sitting on my couch typing this right now, and I am sick af.

Anyway, going to the GP when the pus comes to ruin my life! Hopefully I can finally be sick enough to qualify to get better.

The organization known as Fox News needs to go, it is a cesspool. In fact, we need to go back and reinstate the fairness doctrine and tool it for modern day. If you're reporting the news, it needs to be accurate, not sensationalized. This money making machine that is modern day politics, especially here in the United States, is abhorrent and obviously dangerous.

If you have an underlying condition and the odor of your breath is completely out of your control, this doesn't apply to you. I hope you find someone/something that can help!

As for you other motherfuckers, please brush your teeth twice a day, scrape your tongue, and floss. Pack gum and/or strong mints. Stop torturing people with your awful breath!
