5 responses in 3 minutes? Yeah, no. I’m not engaging with whatever tf this is. Using debate terminology does not mean you have a logical argument and I’m not about to go through economic semantics while you play ignorant. Think as you please and I encourage you to tell/show as many people as you can about this interaction.

Lmao. I hope you are just trolling because that’s a 2nd grade answer. There is no way you are a serious person who has serious opinions about the world.

you can’t decide what happens to it.

But what DOES happen with it? The store restocks.

What exactly do you think happens to the money you spend at the grocery store on bacon? It goes to the people producing it. And then they make more.

That it would drastically harm queer people and those questioning their identity. Social pressure, fear and shame keeps people from asking certain questions or exploring their desires when it’s potentially tied to them for life.

Look at the while concept of “queer appropriation” by celebrities. Their entire life is public and ironically while feeling themselves out and experimenting with new presentations, it’s ironically met with backlash from some queer people thinking it’s a capitalist ploy to appeal to queer fans.

Being able to just ask questions and explore is a fundamental part of understanding yourself. Anonymity is a precious gift, but one that is also easy to take granted.

Edit: Also religious folk.

iknorite?

Cows are the finest example of the proletariat. The only service they provide to the economy is their body itself, so they are literally stripped of it to enrich others with more power, just an endless cycle of suffering.

Not quite, the whole “Enlighten centerist” is a crap feel good argument to side with oppressers out of personal convience, far from a legitimate political perspective.

But this isn’t politics, it’s me as part of the <1% outsider vegan community in a EXTREMELY carnist world. I’m just so bloody tired of people talking about the horrors of “animal abuse” as they pay others to perpetuate it. It’s less centerist, and more annoyance at large scale cognitive dissonance from a historical norm.

Like Republicans are anti-whaling anyways… 🙄

The selective outrage over animal rights is such manufactured bullshit. But if I am being honest, democrats, progressives and leftists are all equally culpable in these do nothing virtue signal outrages. If you are wearing leather, eating meat and financing animal factory farming, I don’t wanna hear about your crocodile tears when an imaginary whale or a fictional dog is hurt.

In November 2022, McCormick noticed a news report detailing an “unauthorized and unlicensed cannabis farm, located on unincorporated land,” that was raided by members of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office. McCormick then met with members of the sheriff’s office to provide paperwork showing the legality of his cannabis farm.

At around 4:30 a.m. local time on December 7, McCormick was woken up by members of the sheriff’s office as they began their raid.

Fuck! He proactively went to show his legal status and all that did was put himself on their radar.

However, the sheriff’s office was informed by members of the tribe that they were not authorized to conduct the raid on their land. In turn, members of the sheriff’s office said the tribal members “didn’t know what they were talking about,” the lawsuit said.

Much of McCormick’s property and cannabis plants were destroyed during the raid and officers confiscated $300,000 from the tribe’s safe.

Outright theft. They had no jurisdiction and didn’t care that they didn’t.

Additionally, the lawsuit said that on January 8, 2023, McCormick’s "family home ‘mysteriously’ caught fire, after the sheriff’s office ordered power and water to his property to be turned off, resulting in the home “being completely burned down,” along with much of his personal belongings.

Why would the water be shut off?! Goddamnit. Every part of this article is infuriating, nothing about this was law enforcement, just armed thugs raiding locals for fun and profit.

Violent bigots come in ever flavor. At a certain point, it’s not worth the effort to suss out the source of their prejudices. It’s an unanswerable question that leads to the same dissapointment in simple minded zealotry no matter their specific path.

I’d rather spend time trying to understand the ones I respect instead of getting lost in the maze of a random scum.

Tesla full self driving is no where close to ready and actively dangerous to any one around it, including and especially the occupants. But the autopilot is pretty convient and useful. I wish they would stop calling these patches “recalls”, it’s turning the term meaningless.

Edit: “If the driver attempts to engage Autosteer when conditions are not met for engagement, the feature will alert the driver it is unavailable through visual and audible alerts, and Autosteer will not engage,” the recall document states.

Super reasonable stuff.

that people would “celebrate” if it were fictitious.

Well that’s just delusional. How exactly did he make it this far while having trouble separating TV from reality?

That’s nice. But since he wasn’t elected and isn’t part of the presidental cabinet why should anyone care?

I have a life altering physical disability from a dog attack while working delivery, two dogs ran around her when the client opened the door. It required surgery, years of PT and I am no longer able to stand or walk for more than a few hours. I live my life in constant pain because of another person’s recklessness.

That poor child, what an atrocious way to die. This careless woman is a monster. But more over, people need to understand that dogs are dangerous, just because they are friendly with YOU does not mean they aren’t a threat to others.

Thank you for the recognition Mike! I am prepared to personally accept whatever award you have for making God angry. It’d be a goddamn pleasure!

I’m stuck somewhere between getting my GF a memorable Christmas gift and giving a dirtbag money…

Good! Great! I hope it leads to change!

For all the talk by transphobes about “protecting women’s sports”, they do shockingly little to actually help those groups.

Yuuuup. Oh well. At this pint I think it would be more embarrassing to go back and edit. 😂

I deferred to Wikipedia.

I wonder if Derek is now realizing that the entire system he worked for and upheld only produces violence. It’s not that he shouldn’t be stabbed, but that no one in the justice system should be subject to the violence he himself subjected on others, like Floyd. Truly hosted by his own peitard.

And for that reason, my sympathies are limited.

Awww. Well we all have our blind spots, and unfortunately this is a common one. But I do appreciate you acknowledgment and response. You stay wonderful! ♥ 💕
