You forgot the panel where they get people to blame it on raising minimum wage, through confirmation bias.
Ok, but that doesn’t really narrow it down. Who should we be focused on?
You.
Better watch out 👀

If people pay for the higher prices then it doesn’t matter. The general public would need to boycott or literally not be able to afford the prices of the good. Unfortunately, we all are very poorly disciplined in that regard, myself included.
literally not be able to afford the prices of the good.
some of us are already here, and we’re about to get a lot of company.
Especially if shops like Tesco as much as double your prices without loyalty cards. Tesco is the worst, haven’t been there for months (as a customer).
Tesco Clubcard, Kaufland Card, Billa Bonus club, Lidl Plus (app required), Coop Jednota Club.
There is no alternative. Supermarket chains killed most small shops. Oh, and you may still need an app to manage it even if you have a plastic card.
Unfortunately, that’s what it’s gonna take. I’m seeing it slightly in the automobile industry.
People will pay whatever a company asks as long as people have money or credit. By “people” I mean the consumerist masses, not you and me.
Haha I unfortunately count in the consumerist masses. Don’t use credit much anymore, but definitely addicted to Amazon Prime.
I actually didn’t buy something I wanted yesterday and found an alternative instead because of the out of control price gouging the last few years. I bought a compost bin there 4 years ago for $24. I needed a new one and went to my purchase history to buy the same one. They want $50 now. Seriously, man? 100% price increase in 4 years? Nah man. I found something else. The worst part is that it wasn’t even a good can. The lid broke after a year. $50 for a tiny one gallon trash can that’ll last a year is completely ridiculous.
I just steal it.
That’s the spirit! Isn’t that what we pay taxes for?
Oh yes. Boycott eating.
Haha sarcasm I presume. Boycotting certain restaurants or goods would be effective. I myself get take out more than I should or need to.
Unfortunately not sarcasm. When grocery stores are colluding to raise prices, what can you do?
What are they gonna do? Starve? 🤷🏼♂️
“This is Joe Brandon’s fault, and trump will fix it. I’m an idiot!”
- an idiot
I like what this idiot says. Is there some way I can blindly support them to rule the world like an idiot?
- another idiot
The Dems lost approximately 10,000,000 voters this time around, and Trump ended up winning by approximately 500,000.
Seems to me the Dems are the idiots for thinking they could fail to follow through on their promises and people would continue to vote for them.
And yet they were following through on their promises. Gas prices are the lowest they’ve been in years, eggs were fine. Student loans were being addressed until retardicans blocked it. Same with the border bill same with the inflation bill. Any repub or dem who listened to brainwashing instead of evidence can go fuck themselves. Hell, they have gone and fucked themselves.
Hell, they have gone and fucked themselves.
No, they have gone and fucked all of us.
It’s the dems fault thinking a PoC woman can succeed as the presidential candidate in the current political climate in America
That too.
I’m actually kind of proud of them for nominating her for that exact reason. It does give me some hope that in the Post Trump future women will be seen as real people.
They didnt reject her because she’s a woman. She was a bad candidate, just like Hilary. Bad performance, whether thats on her or her team who knows. Noones going to vote for someone purely because they think its fun to have a woman in the white house. Thats extremely low on peoples list of concerns for presidency.
The caricature of her that Fox&co-conspirators presented was certainly terrible.
I watched the fox interview straight through, as someone who voted for her already, and was shocked that the interviewer didnt sound like a crazy person, and kamala didnt answer a single question she was asked.
Fox and co didnt have to make her look bad, she did a great job of it sounding like a salea person or brand marketer. Trump sitting down for unscripted podcast interviews helped a ton. At least trump wasn’t hiding who he is.
Did you watch the permanent 24 hours news cycle where they painted her as a radical lunatic marxist stupid DEI hire out to destroy the country and take away everyone’s everything too? It is hard to overstate how crazy out there their propaganda is.
I’m starting to feel like more and more of these comics here are just political opinions not even intented to be entertaining.
Unrealistic, Sir would be all about it
They’re going to elect an authoritarian as president, surely that will bring down prices!
It’s been coming doing for years, but much like Trump took credit for Obama’s economy, he will take credit for this too. And 50% of the country will learn the wrong lesson.
If I’ve learned anything from plastic signs on the side of the road, it’s “Trump low prices. Kamala high prices.”
“He’s got that totally awesome plan called Tarrifs™ that is supposed to make rainbows and sunshine come pouring out of my ass and we’ll all be happy again!”
…oh… Wait…
Search trends are not useful for population studies. For example, did you even bother comparing the search trends you presented to other election years?
It was just meant to be a joke not some serious documentation of information meant to be spread as absolute fact. We’re in a comics group at the moment lol
Yeah, questions about vot8ng will always spike after an election, not having numbers makes that increase meaningless. There was another image comparing these trends to people searching for tailor swift, which was like 8 times higher than these trends in any point of the curve. So high that the increase of this question was even hard to see.
I hate people that manipulate data presentation to twist results.
“Aren’t people going to see through that?”
Haven’t they?
It never fails to surprise me that that is how ‘yacht’ is spelt.
It’s a shame it’s naught spelt yaught.
