The amount of people here who seem to think the dog actually shot the gun is insane.

What are Facebook posts doing here?

Yeah I can’t imagine the alternative. A life where you and your partner aren’t comfortable in silence sounds like a nightmare.

Yeah I don’t get why that point is controversial? If Mormons are Christian then why aren’t Muslims? They both had a new prophet reveal the errors of the new testament, creating a doctrinally distinct new religion.

“But every political system in history is either literally anarchy, in which case I’ll just call you an anarkiddie, or equally authoritarian, in which case whatabout the US?”

Correct me if I’m wrong, but he did order food to continue to be exported from India despite the ongoing starvation, correct? Isn’t that a distinction without a difference?

I don’t trust lifetime anything. That lasts as long as it’s profitable.

Ty ty. It was on my other account on a different instance, but one time somebody attacked me thinking that I was a tankie based solely on the “China book” reading lol. Pretty racist imo.

Lol you know, when I made my account I didn’t think of how likely it would be that people would think it’s “China book” and not “chin a book.” I really should have capitalized the letter at the start of each word. Oh well.

That sounds like CIA propaganda to me. /s

Oh sorry, this place is just so flooded with tankies that most of the time I see a post like that it’s because they’re about to start singing the PRC’s praises. It’s actually insane.

Cool so we agree that PRC and USA are both atrociously vile countries that shouldn’t be emulated? Right? Right??

Not the guy you responded to, but I don’t see why it should be illegal to form groups and clubs to gamble under the condition that there is no “house” taking a cut, or maybe (at most) that a flat fee is charged for membership to allow for overhead (i.e., rent, dealers, etc.).

Let’s be honest, a flat out prohibition on gambling just means that it’ll only be enforced against poor people shooting dice or making informal sports bets, while must rich people and organized crime get away with breaking the law as always.

Maybe they have a point. We should strip anyone who voted for Trump of citizenship, and therefore they should not be allowed to vote. We can be generous and give them a freeby if they only voted for him in 2016, but anyone who voted for him in 2020 or 2024, at the least, shouldn’t be citizens.

I don’t think many people are saying that kratom doesn’t have legitimate uses in providing an off ramp or mitigation against more serious opioids, or that people shouldn’t have the right to use it if they want to and are informed of the risks. My understanding of John Oliver’s segment was that there is an astounding lack of any regulation or quality control. If anything I thought the argument he made paralleled the arguments that are usually made in favor of legalization, it’s just that in this case the drug is already legal but almost completely unregulated so scams are rampant.

Yeah same I drink very moderately now but once upon a time that bottle would be significantly less than one normal weekend night out, or a fairly difficult weeknight.

Grey is definitely in the wrong, that’s exactly when you should have used a white lie but they were being a huge dick.

Pronouncing the pastry like that outside of a French sentence irritates me so much that I do as my more rural relatives used to and say “crescent roll” and stress the “cress.”

Here’s a good on-point article from an anarchist that hasn’t lost her mind like these morons: https://open.substack.com/pub/margaretkilljoy/p/forget-the-conspiracies?r=t57p3
