This all started with an idiot post by Chris Rufo that "the economy is strong and income has never been higher." Why would someone in the Trump coalition say something so retarded not a couple months removed from the election? Because people are still mad that about legally flooding the country with Indians. archive
Chris then kicked off the party in earnest by insisting that everything is doing great because someone, somewhere got a $70k job at Panda Express. archive
This is basically "full employment." The Panda Express near my house is offering $70k/yr plus benefits for the assistant manager. You can make $100k/yr working at Chipotle for a few years and working up to store manager.
People are talking about H-1B foreigners replacing American engineers AND THIS IS YOUR INPUT IN THE CONVERSATION??

Boomercon influencer "Wanye Burkett" had a Helen of Troy moment that kicked this off (he deleted) (archive)
I literally don't care if the entire country burns down and everyone I love dies, that would be better than giving an inch to "right wing" 24-year-olds who are indistinguishable from progressives except they hate immigrants

Matt Walsh appears, of course. No boomercon situation would be complete without the Daily Wire's Ron Swanson showing up to give us the astroturfed bearded family man position archive

Reminder that Chris just hired a porn star lib for a $300k journalist position (archive)

My absolute favorite part is Rufo retweeting a guy who did exactly what he's recommending (worked his way up to manager position in fast food) without reading the whole thread where the guy says it was a horrible experience that he would only wish on his worst enemies archive
If Vivek's "Saved by the Bell" post was his Waterloo, this is the Con Inc Pearl Harbor. The entire conservagrifter alliance turned out to get decimated on X. Bottom line is, nobody would be taking issue with "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" except the people preaching that want to import foreigners to replace the people they're talking to!!
"Learn to code" has now become "learn to shovel fried rice." Amazing economy!!
Historical perspective? Lol, someone with an x account should give him a historical perspective on what happens when an entire generation of young men believes they have nothing to live for. And these are American men who keep getting passed over for hiring and promotion because of DEI policies and the great replacement, so it's a very well armed generation.
And no, that's not calling for rule 2 action, simply a recognition that, historically speaking, we are in a very dangerous situation right now.
"They" know that too, which is why they forced Biden out, entertained us with a circus election, and now want us to "calm down" because "our guy" supposedly won. But notice how Trump's handler -- Vance -- is doing all the talking as of late? J6 Pardons? "Eh, we have to consider the facts." Mass deportations? "Eh, temper your expectations." And Trump appointed Soro's long-time fund manager to head the U.S. Treasury. Huh? That's the guy that shorted the Asian economy and is banned from setting foot there. That guy is going to save our economy?
It's almost an open secret that Trump's benefactors will be given the war with Iran they've wanted for decades.
Ya basically. Trump is a pacifier.
