I have just waded into this morass so I am not familiar with your jargon.

AFAIK not common internet slang.

What is "club 401k"?

Oooo, he'll have a much longer and detailed reply :).

But let me summarize:
"Club 401k" refers to the goobs on the ex-Political Asylum who were all for taxing everyone but themselves and who used to say bbbbut The DOW! when asked about the economy (which they knew very little about).

White Corporatist Liberals who pretend to give a crap.

They want "$15 an hour!" - yet they never pause to think the've said that for a decade and it's not relevant in today's purchasing power.

They want "$15 an hour!" yet they complain about tipping. "Just pay a living wage!" - no Aidan, if they did that you'd just pay higher prices. You don't mind that. It irks you to just pay a working man or girl.

They like "education!" but won't give poor black people a CHOICE to take the money being spent on their crappy school - and use it to a private, religious, or charter school. "Let's fund education!" - shut up. You've said it for 50 years so while you keep fighting the good fight, liberate the slaves from your teacher's union plantation and bad culture plantation.


They claim "Fairness!" and "tax the rich!" because the greedy ass mooches want people with more than them to pay for everything.

Newsflash you smug campus bred elite wannabes: You worship " The Dow!" "SP 500!" every chance you get on the backs of "exploited workers" and "slave labor" and "cheated customers". You love to complain about the latter----but love seeing them green arrows on your dumbass online statements lol. You love your TAX DEFERRED and TAX ADVANTAGED 401K life, but your Bubble doesn't remind you that the single mom (her and her kid are victims of your crappy culture) can't afford to live on your crappy tips, raise her son, AND contribute to her 401K. It's a sop to upper income white people - LIKE YOU PEOPLE IN CLUB 401K.

"SAVE SOCIAL SECURITY, TAX THE RICH!" Why is it that people making approx $160k-$400k are spared FICA taxes at that bracket? Why is it all your proposals say "people making over 400k"? Why does some putz, educated at an institution designed to be exclusive to keep people out.........if he's earning $200k - why is part of that SHIELDED from FICA? While the Barista's pay is 100% FICA-TAXABLE?


"NO WAR FOR OIL" Said Club 401K. "Putin!" they cry. Yet they were ok with Germany and Putin and Pipelines that to this day funds Putin's war machine. And now they've driven the world to the brink of a real confrontation with a nuclear power just because the Russian Leader doesn't want NATO looking up his ass when he takes a dump. JFK didn't seem to like missiles in Cuba- why should Putin allow white racist European countries to keep growing their alliance so Big Dog America protects them?

But after ostracizing Putin and putting him in a corner, Putin rapes Ukraine. CLUB 401K has a new meme, a new cause, and they take Big Macs away from innocent middle class Russians.

YET.....CHINA is killing and genociding Muslims ---but China still gets. Big Macs why? Because the slave labor and their markets give Club 401K a bump in their stock prices .

Then there's the intentional racism. Subjugate an entire race for generations. Tell them that anything from AIDS to SAT scores to Wheel of Fortune is rigged against them. Keep them dependent on benefits. Encourage their march away from the nuclear family structure. Set them up for a self perpetuating cycle of failure, poverty, and misery......this way they stay in the bad part of town, and Club 401K can be in their White Bubbles biking to the Whole Foods to buy their Wellness Food for the week.

The paternal racism follows. Talking high mindedly about "The African Americans this and that" and taking credit anytime a black for brown person achieves. And downplaying it when someone achieves OUTSIDE the Liberal auspices. On TMF we lived thru Gorscush and "Kavanaugh!" as you people shouted. Yet when Biden picked a nominee they called her "Ketanji"----if her last name was O'Malley, you would have used that just like you did with Gorscuch and Kavanaugh. But "Ketanji" --well that sounds, um, a certain way so you paternal racists referred to her by first name.

Indeed- STALIN pulled a bird's feathers off one by one, and then illustrated that the bird is now thankful for the warmth of his palm. You racist, bubble dwelling corporatists are indeed Stalin's acolytes.

"RACIST!" when white middle Class or poorer Americans are sick of competing with migrant labor in some cases. Sick of their school having to fund bilingual assistance while cutting other stuff. BUT......when overpaid, underworked, jackass I.T employees on the coasts want to BAN or LIMIT H12B HIGH TECH VISAS----SOMEhow THAT IS OK. Once again. White 401K'ers brandishing the hangman's noose----when it threatens the YogaMom lifestyle. How about we toss in 10,000,000 new H1 Visas and make them permanent residents, just like you solely want to do with illegal Mexican immigrants. *Hint: One group shows up less in prison, speaks more English, pays more taxes, and kicks your ass in school and now up to the C-SUITE"----and Liberals are more racist than Republicans could ever be.

There's much more. But introspection is *not* your thing. Trump - is more introspective than Club 401K.

It's a pleasure seeing your punishment unfold as I had wished for and predicted for over a decade on TMF.

All you have left now is the SP 500. I hope things speed up, and the problems on the horizon will show you that your saved SP500 is cold butter, and the punishment you deserve and caused - is like a hot knife.

Anyhow, In more important news if you order a 30 cent sauce at Popeye's you instantly get a receipt with a coupon for a compelling fried chicken deal. Ditto Burger King- order the cheapest thing, get the receipt, do the online survey and get a free Whopper if you buy fries and drink. For under $6.00 it's a fine meal.

Thanks. I never knew that, either, but didn't really bother since he was always being so cryptic about everything.

The maestro speaks :) - Dope

-----------------

You warned us. I will stick with your succinct rendition. Attempting to follow the maestro made my brain hurt as his unusual style often does.

Translation:

"Oh crap he's right. We didn't bump up the $15.00 meme with years of inflation and it shows we are fakes"

"10,000,000 high tech immigrants at once? Nope, he's right -we don't want that, but we sure want it for middle America and unskilled or semi skilled illegals"

"I'll just smugly overlook it..... I'm better off doing my usual talking points"

"Yeah he's right. I'm not introspective, and I bitterly cling to my 401K statement"

PS: "I piss on John Lennon's grave and drop to my knees for the Dow Jones Industrial Average"
