No. The stove causes pollution. This is the same as smoking around children. And it’s not addictive. Getting rid of it should be easy.

Even if that’s true.

Autism

Or

Rabies

What the actual fuck?

Nah, then it just becomes a defacto situation of the content creation companies (Disney, Sony, etc) owning the telecom companies. So you will truly be a single content household, like a Disney Household or a Paramount Household.

Sony wanted mo money. Yo money wasn’t enough for them. So they got a jury to agree that Cox owes them 1 Billion dollars.

Let’s all sing about how much we love Corporate Governance.

^{Please don’t shut off my internet telecom daddy I’ll drink another Mountain Dew Verification Can!}

Sure, for the low price of a lifetime pension I’ll benevolently dismantle the oligarchy; ban guns; make cars luxury items; massively expand mass transit; and bring in universal health and education!

Just ignore the claims that I’ve actually jailed or killed my opposition; held the families of so called “freedom fighters” so they’ll turn themselves and their buddies in; made travel outside your area and healthcare impossible without government approval; and completely changed the history everyone learns.

Okay that’s obviously pretty extreme. Just a reminder that if you’re not careful even well intentioned dictatorships can be very oppressive.

Oh no. No. No. No. The players make the rules. Shifting focus to the game being bad is a deflection as old as time.

Right, so you just chose to be offended at something you knew wasn’t about you.

That’s usually a house. But yeah if they have a million in a 401k then they’re part of the problem. Those funds are sitting in investment companies like Blackrock fueling the primacy of Wall Street over everything.

Sure because “buying the dip” in regards to a recession is totally about someone buying half a share and not corporations vacuuming assets out of the economy.

Nobody is worried about your penny stocks and you know that.

In the US 1984 was the nadir in births. So a similar experience.

I accidentally ended up with a semi trailer full of blue corn tortilla chips?

Wait are you serious?

We should be spending public money though. The public debt has literally never been an actual issue for the US.

We never really recovered from COVID.

If you have the money to do that then you are the problem.
