I stg every time UFO Reddit gets worked up, it ultimately has the most mundane explanation which everyone forgets as soon as the next thing comes up.

This is Rocket [League!]

Cryptocurrencies: higher transaction fees, slower transaction times, and zero consumer protections compared to just using a credit card.

On the other hand, crypto is also terrible for the environment.

Republicans love to forget that as governor, Reagan was very pro gun control when black people started arming themselves.

Tbf those rich people were simultaneously waging literal war (like with guns and everything) against their workers.

The US Green Party is just a useful puppet for Russia. Unfortunately that’s the reality of a FPTP voting system. If people don’t like it then they can try to organize grass roots changes in order to bring about longterm systemic change. But sadly too many voters just wake up once every four years, see that there isn’t a single candidate that perfectly aligns with their world view, and then just spite vote or spite abstain.

It’s like the ultimate form of taking democracy for granted; democracy isn’t just voting in one election every four years. There’s loads of local elections, primaries, and campaigning in between that have equal or even more impact on people’s daily lives, and which influence the candidates that appear on the presidential ballot.

He was also loosely the inspiration for the titular character in Inside Llewelyn Davis iirc

Credit rating doesn’t translate across countries. Even the US and Canada don’t share credit rating info (source: I’m a US citizen living in Canada and my credit history in Canada started from nothing), so the US and China definitely won’t. And banks are absolutely not giving favorable rates to students yet alone international students.

In fact if anything because international students get the worst tuition rates and few to no scholarships, then if OP’s story was real they would have spent minimum $20k a year just in tuition over four years, not even counting room and board. So if they did try to abscond with a more realistic credit card debt of like $10k they’d still be way underwater.

The only way this would maybe work is if they had a full ride scholarship, but only top schools like Stanford/Harvard give substantial scholarships to international students and at that point the student would be throwing away 4 years of a top top education for a relatively trivial amount of money, keeping in mind that again they’re never getting six figures in credit.

This is definitely not real. There’s no way an international student got $140k in credit with no collateral. A tenth of that MAYBE but at that point there’s plenty of Americans doing the same thing anyways.

Whenever someone pulls out the “dEmOcRaTs WeRe ThE cOnFeDeRaTeS” argument, you know they’re either dumb as fuck or arguing entirely in bad faith. Like bro the parties switched in the 1960s it’s just names at this point.

Classic rock is redundant at this point tbh
