    Ya know, I’m fine with this one. TSA doesn’t protect or stop anything. It’s all security theatre.

      To be fair the TSA is just a federal jobs program and the workers are at least better off than if they worked for a private company doing the same thing. But that probably last too long under Trump. Then the TSA will be shuttered, replaced with private companies and AI the workers turned into contractors with no health benefits.

      Hey man, the number of major terrorist attacks the TSA has stopped is non-negative!

      Edit: wait, they haven’t caused any, have they?

    Guy with long, storied history of hating unions destroys unions. Like did they even try to think about their decision?

    Not a single person of the 77 million who voted for Grump OR the idiots who didn’t bother voting are ever going to get one IOTA of sympathy from me Fuck each and every single one of them all. Enjoy your abject poverty and job loss. I’ll enjoy laughing at you.

      Same. Every time I have to get a pat down because I won’t step into their fucking machine, I consider it government molestation. Fuckers.

      edit: I am not trying to minimize whatever happened to you, sorry if my comment comes across that way.

    To be fair, fuck the goddamn TSA in the neck with a red hot poker. If Musk had abolished them on Day One he would be heralded as a hero.
