    Unfortunately, it seems this needs to happen to wake people the fuck up.

    Another article today about people literally having no concept of why the websites they’re shopping on is suddenly way more expensive (and explicitly showing the tariff costs).

    People are surprised by this, and many of them have literally never even heard the word “tariff” before.
