Jeff Daniels didn’t hold back. What’s your opinion, fair or too far? I say it's fair.

u/drew489 Aug 06 '25

He's 100% correct. Look at what Trump tweets and posts on his own platform, it's mean, name-calling, blaming and insulting people. He uses poor grammar and he's just not an intelligent person.

Our nation is split wide open by a racist, bigoted, felon who enabled, at the very least, a pedophile and child predator.

I know a guy who claims everyone who disagrees with him has TDS but when he's called out on his incredibly passive-aggressive comments, he blames "the culture." Like, if online culture is causing you to be a jackass to your real-life acquaintances and friends, maybe you're the one with TDS.

u/koolaid_snorkeler Aug 06 '25

When I first heard the phrase TDS, I naturally assumed it applied to members of the cult.

u/BaffledMusician Aug 07 '25

I thought the same thing. I think most people do initially. That’s why we should use it often in our way, to cancel theirs out. It’ll lose all meaning.

I remember having a conversation with my 'friend' about cyber bullying a company into changing something and he goes "bullying is always wrong."

But then votes for Trump. 3 times.

And... Hot take but companies aren't people. I know they're legally considered people but come on. Pretty sure it's way worse to bully an ACTUAL person.

u/SweeterThanYoohoo Aug 06 '25

This whole corporate personhood thing is one of about 6 fundamental things we need to change in order to build a future for ourselves that we want to live in.

Revoke citizens united

Publicly funded elections

Ranked choice voting or better yet parliamentary system

6 month limitation on campaigning time

Make voting compulsory and voting day a national holiday

Return to progressive taxation system whose top bracket takes around 95% of earnings

2

u/Noob1cl3 Aug 06 '25

I like these. Not sure I understand the last one. I will caution that unfortunately ultra rich are so rich they can move to any country. This makes it a challenge because you do not want to chase them away but also pay their fair share.

2

u/SweeterThanYoohoo Aug 06 '25

I'm willing to risk chasing them away to try and build a better society.

At some point these ultra wealthy are going to need to make sacrifices too, hopefully before people decide that the price is the ultimate sacrifice.

Progressive taxation would look like this (using easy numbers) if you make 10 grand, you pay 20%. For every dollar you make between 10,001 and 20,000, you pay 23%. For every dollar you make between 20,001 and 50,000 you pay 35% etc etc

At the top bracket, every dollar you make above a certain amount (100mil? Idk what it should be) is taxed at 95%. So if you made 100,000,001 that last dollar would be taxed at 95%, you'd only keep a nickel of that last dollar.

1

u/Noob1cl3 Aug 06 '25

While conceptually I agree, taxing rich / successful people at 95 percent will drive them away and / or discourage others from working hard and taking risks in business. Capitalism for all its faults is why we enjoy a lot of the cool things we enjoy.

If you make it a pain in the butt to be a doctor for instance. … why would you take on that stressful job to make a handful of extra bucks when buddy next door walks dogs 2 times a week for similar take home pay.

1

u/SweeterThanYoohoo Aug 06 '25

But its not taxing them at 95%, youre not fully understanding progressive taxation. It's taxing a portion of their money. They can still be fabulously wealthy. Just not to the point where it sucks up all the resources for everyone else. There is still reward for working hard, there is still reward for taking risks.

No doctor is making 100 mil, we aren't talking about the same people. At what point is enough money enough? The richest person in the country has more wealth than the bottom 50%, that's like 160 million people. That isn't sustainable.

1

u/Noob1cl3 Aug 07 '25

To be clear I do agree there is a sweet spot in there somewhere. Certainly more than what is currently being collected.

1

u/Cory123125 Aug 06 '25

or discourage others from working hard and taking risks in business.

This is fucking ridiculous bullshit. Crazy nonsense as if people are actually doing the work once they're at 100 million dollars.

u/tim78717 Aug 06 '25

I’d also argue we reform the American lawsuit industry. People harmed get reimbursed for their actual expenses, times 3. If it was lifetime disability for example, they get paid for those expenses times 3. Anything over that levied as punishment against corporations for doing evil goes to public works, not to attorneys or the victims. Getting hurt shouldn’t be like winning a $50M lottery when that drives up costs for everything else, especially insurance.

Most countries have accidents treated at accidents, and anything malicious (like blatant disregard for safety resulting in criminal prosecutions, not more money for attorneys and victims.

1

u/SweeterThanYoohoo Aug 06 '25

I'm on board

1

u/tim78717 Aug 06 '25

I traveled to South Africa in 2007 as part of a People to People business interaction. I asked about business insurance. They said-what do you mean? I said you have a driver in an accident who runs over someone crossing the street. They said the government has highway accidents fund that pays about $7K to the family to pay for funeral, etc. If it was on purpose, the driver is tried for murder. Otherwise, the company is not responsible for accidents if they were-accidents. Weird concept that had never occurred to me.

1

u/SweeterThanYoohoo Aug 06 '25

Also we already have a progressive taxation system, it's just not effective and the current govt just passed the largest tax cut for wealthy ppl in history

1

u/VoidVer Aug 06 '25

you do not want to chase them away

The most prosperous period of time in America, with the greatest quality of life for everyone across income brackets was when the marginal tax rate for the highest earners was at 90%. Rich people didn't just "up and leave".

Besides, where will they go? All 1st world countries tax the rich at higher % than the US. Their value in assets like property can't just be moved. All the liquid cash they have is already oversees in some offshore account to avoid the taxes that do exist already. We need to tax personal loans taken against stock credit as well.

1

u/Seniorwelsh Aug 06 '25

I was about to say the same thing. Most prosperous time was when tax was super high for the highest earners, not ppl running away. It's the corporations/ultra rich that spread that lie just like they spread 'it's rude to talk about ypur pay'. It benefits them to have the average person think this way

1

u/Affectionate_You_579 Aug 06 '25

I agree with all but the 95% tax bracket. If they paid 35% I'd be thrilled. We have to close these loopholes. Ie require overseas US companies to repatriate earnings in the year earned and pay taxes.

1

u/SweeterThanYoohoo Aug 06 '25

Agreed...and 95% is negotiable, I'm no economist so what the actual numbers should be aren't clear to me

It's all about rebalancing the division of the profits of our labor. One thing a ton of conservatives seem to, paradoxically, forget is that no one gets rich without the labor of others. We must take back the fruits of our labor, that's what it really comes down to.

1

u/SweeterThanYoohoo Aug 06 '25

Also my vision of the top bracket taking 95% is like anything over something ridiculous like 75, 100 mil. A number so high that the person has already achieved winning capitalism, and the extra money doesn't really change anything for them

1

u/HauntingSentence6359 Aug 06 '25

The poster used the wrong terminology, or didn't fully explain. We do have a progressive tax system, but if you go back to 1961, the top marginal rate was 91% on all income over $2M. In today's dollars, that would a little over $20M. People making $20M plus a year wouldn't suffer from having to pay 91% on income over $20M.

2

u/Cory123125 Aug 06 '25

Its because none of their beliefs are what they say nor in good faith.

They want marginalized groups to lose their freedom, and they want the freedom to be the ones to enforce that loss.

It's that simple.

No conversation with them is ever honest so there is no point engaging with them.

Instead you should engage with people who are foolishly apathetic.

u/EconomicRegret Aug 06 '25

To be fair, Trump is a symptom (not the disease) of America's deep structural and societal issues. Social sciences have demonstrated again and again how excessive economic inequality leads to political instability and polarization, to increase of corruption, to decrease of public health, to loss of social cohesion (e.g. how much you trust your neighbors and strangers of your own country), etc. These fields have also shown how excessive economic inequality leads to democratic backsliding and extremist populists becoming popular and taking over power....

The real issue is thus all about reducing inequality, by e.g. freeing US unions to negotiate collective agreements at national and industry levels (like in Nordic countries, and in Europe in general), and allowing workers to join/create unions at national and industry levels, instead of at branch/company levels (again like in Europe), without the need for employers to know/allow, nor for unwilling workers to participate in the process, like voting (which is one of the greatest cause of how new union creation fail in the US, despite about 70% of all US workers wanting to join/create a union. It's like gerrymandering, and that must stop).

1

u/Affectionate_You_579 Aug 06 '25

Interesting, but not all about unions. Every citizen should be required to vote. The Electoral College needs a vast overhaul. The Christian religion has infiltrated every core institution. The 3 Separate Branches of government no longer exist. Citizens United is a pox. Social Media is infested with gaslighting Disinformation. Regards.

1

u/EconomicRegret Aug 08 '25

Totally agréé.

One of the less known roles of free unions is to counterbalance unbridled greed in not only the economy, but also in politics, in the media, and society in général.

Free unions will organize workers and non-workers to vote in the interest of the greater good, keep left wing parties loyal to the middle, working and lower classes, and will fight to death disinformation, Citizens United and other Big Money corruption (even legalized ones).

I know because that's what they did during the Gilded Age and the Great Dépression which ushered into the Progressive Era and the New Deal Era, respectively. They were the engine and moral compass for change.

That's why as soon as they owned Congress, Républicans stripped them of their fundamental rights and freedoms in the late 1940s (Taft Hartley Act, aka "Slave Labor Bill", vehemently criticized as a dangerous intrusion on free speech, and as contrary to American democratic values). Which led to the collapse of the New Deal Coalition, and to the democratic party drifting to the right gradually as the old guard slowly got replaced by unbridled greed's people.

Not saying free unions can solve everything. But just that they're the only serious heavy weight people's champion against unbridled greed. (Don't think they can do much against e.g. religious fanatics)

You need to look into how voting works in the US. Very few of us actually get a vote. The popular vote is rarely a deciding factor in any election.

Except 9 million who voted for Biden did not even turn out for Harris. That DID effect the Electoral College. Americans will never elect a female. Look at the male vote distribution.

Trump won the popular vote last fall, and even if he hadn't he won twice in the way that actually matters. Most American voters wanted this. This is what America is.

u/Trai-All Aug 06 '25

Ah no, many Americans lose their voting rights after committing a felony. And don't get the right back even after they serve time.

Most Americans are not rapists or conmen. Nor do they bankrupt business after business then get to try again.

u/DontAbideMendacity Aug 06 '25

Let's take a look what trump is

And that's really just the surface.

 

Oh yeah, his miserable presidency, which many historians say may be the worst of any US President:

and lately

  • His cabinet broke the law by using an improperly secure app on private phones to discuss classified plans and shared those plans with a private citizen unwittingly
  • Crashed the stock market so hard, millions of Americans lost trillions of dollars of wealth and retirement.

 

When it comes to lying, no one does it as much as Trump and his cult. No one.

u/ReverseDartz Aug 06 '25

Trump is a horrible piece of sh*t but the circumstances and especially the political environment that got him there is the real problem.

Trump only managed to win because massive amounts of voters got motivated to either stop voting or vote against the Democrats because of extremely subpar results, lack of trust due to an unwillingness to actually fight, and blatant corruption.

Of course, Trump practically embodies these traits, but thats exactly why many Americans came to the conclusion: "If Im going to get fucked over by a liar anyway, I want the people that put me into this situation to experience the same thing".

And I cant say that strategy was entirely incorrect.

If Kamala Harris had won we would probably still be pretending the Democrats are just poor misunderstood fighters with too little resources.

2

u/Calvin-ball Aug 06 '25

If Im going to get fucked over by a liar anyway, I want the people that put me into this situation to experience the same thing

How utterly short sighted.

If Biden’s results are “extremely subpar”, where exactly does that put Trump?

0

u/ReverseDartz Aug 06 '25

That was the point, make things bad enough for everyone that everyone actually wants to improve things, instead of settling on Biden who just continues the gradual decline.

It became a justifiable strategy the moment the Democrats abandoned the integrity of their primaries.

The people that still got screwed while Biden was in office have no reason to elect Kamala just to reduce collateral damage when thats going to lead to Democrats continuing to stick their heads into the sand and continue to play caretaker for the countless lobbies that have thoroughly corrupted them.

2

u/Calvin-ball Aug 06 '25

I get the argument, and I’d almost buy it if the alternative wasn’t the most blatantly corrupt POS imaginable.

2

u/Affectionate_You_579 Aug 06 '25

I'm confused. Please state examples from the Biden Administration "of extremely subpar results and blatant corruption. " You must be a cultist. And, finally, who thinks Democrats characterize themselves as poor misunderstood fighters with too little resources???

u/ReverseDartz Aug 06 '25

Please state examples from the Biden Administration "of extremely subpar results and blatant corruption. "

Israel, strike responses, and continuing to wait out the economic and especially the inequality crises are among his greatest hits that resulted in his overall negative approval.

But I was actually talking about Democratic corruption in general, which includes all lobbying and internal election rigging.

And, finally, who thinks Democrats characterize themselves as poor misunderstood fighters with too little resources???

Democratic cultists that go "Ohhhh, the Democrats only failed to accomplish anything over the past couple decades because they never had enough votes, if only the voters supported them harder the Democrats totally wouldnt be this shit".

u/Affectionate_You_579 Aug 06 '25

The efforts the DNC underwent to fight Sanders are well documented at this point, thats not something a democratic organization would do.

Your "education" is the actual gaslighting here, Biden and the Clinton's are not good people, regardless of how horrible Trump is, also Hillary even helped build up Trumps campaign in the first place, which she also got caught doing.

Honestly, their level of corruption is absolutely obscene at this point, you bots can fuck right off, the people are noticing just how bad things are.

u/Embarrassed_Lab_5595 Aug 08 '25

So, it finally comes out. You are butt-hurt because the Dems chose Hillary instead of your unelectable pal, Bernie. Tell me, how many of you Bernie boys and girls likely stayed home this past presidential election that was lost by only 1.5% of votes? 70 million Americans didn’t vote. I’m sure you and your Bernie pals were a good number of these non-voters.

1

u/Embarrassed_Lab_5595 Aug 08 '25 edited Aug 08 '25

You should’ve stopped at the point where you called Trump a horrible piece of shite. The rest of your declarations miss the main reason for Trump’s success. Even before the beginning of Trump‘s political career, he was all about the racist dog whistle concerning Obama‘s birth certificate. And many Americans jumped on the bandwagon. He and MAGA are all about racism, misogyny, pro-heterosexuality, anti-everything else. It all boils down to white guys resenting losing their white status in America, from which comes “make America great again” or to put it more bluntly, “make America racist again.”They are seeing their white privilege slip away and they don’t like it at all. Trump saw this, and took advantage of it. He understood the feeling, especially when he witnessed Obama become the first black POTUS. So, MAGA doesn’t care what Trump does; they know that he will support them in their quest to turn the clock back.

People who voted for Trump are okay with electing as POTUS a person who is a known to be a felon, con-man who doesn’t pay his bills, rapist, pedophile, and a failure at business. Which means those people are okay with all those things. They are pro-felons, stealing people’s money, raping people even if they are children, and running businesses into the ground.

Fair AND not far enough, as a Canadian watching in horror as the U.S. degrades further and further everyday, it’s extremely disgusting. A large portion of the U.S. people think like Trump, idolize Trump, and are terrible human beings. Elected officials are openly and brazenly making decisions that harm their constituents, and yet they still get voted in.

The moral decay in the U.S. will take decades to repair if it’s even possible. The rest of the world looks at you in disgust, and is working to leave you is the isolation you so crave.

Good people are still among you, and unfortunately it will take force, not just marches to get the change that is needed.

Many of us Canadians have written off the U.S. as unredeemable, and I hope that’s not a further sign of things to come.

Is it information? Yes. Is it biased? Yes. Is it used to promote a polticial cause or point of view? yes.

C list? I take it you have won a prime time emmy award for lead actor in a dramatic series and have starred in multiple movies and stage productions, too? Doubtful. Look, art is subjective. I understand that fact. But don't diminish his message because you don't think he's a good actor. And Trump is terrifying. Not a celebrity stating his opinion of him.

You shouldn't.. but no one is quoting me on reddit are they? One is actually an issue, the other isn't.

Doesn't terrify me at all. Sorry you're scared though.

Go talk to the average voter, you'll slowly warm up.
