  I honestly wish this would immediately totally destroy the entire company.

  We need an example for “what happens when you make basic features cost extra”.

  This isn’t the first example, but the first I did hear was the heated seats (don’t remember the make, but I think it was BMW which I already hate conveniently) feature getting milked the same way.

  I’m totally in favor of companies tiptoeing to see how much hostility they can get away with getting immediately liquidated and shut down faster than the CEO can finish chuckling to themselves after coming up with the idea. Their golden parachutes should turn into iron weights and they should be up shit’s creek, penniless and disqualified for any account in their name to ever receive a deposit. This kind of decision should be actually and literally lethal.

  I’m not even kidding. I’m in favor of executing everyone involved in this whole chain of decisions, including any and all the “yes men” along the way. They’re too evil to be allowed to breathe my oxygen.

  Screen those piddly lame ass infected toes, I wish all commercial advertisers straight up instant death. Make one website where people can look you up, and have promotions happen there; but nothing should ever be advertised anywhere outside that.

  Advertisement is a cancer. Bad in every way.

  Got my yelling at clouds done for today. I offer no further solution, but adverts are definitely just a problem of humanity, not a benefit.

  It doesn’t really matter if we think they’re people. It doesn’t really matter if they are. We (all the worthy humans) should treat them as non people.

  I can’t see a negative here beyond false identification. If there was an objective, without a doubt way to measure if someone was a Nazi, I would support genociding them (and only them). Proactively. It should simply be as illegal to just be a Nazi on the same level as it would be to murder an entire country’s population.

  Turns out that is either impossible or we’re millions of years from figuring out how to do that safely (safe in terms of not harming non Nazis). But the minute we do I’d be on board with punishing them for daring to be born. There is no world of timeline in which being Nazi isn’t worthy of immediate execution.

  But since all of that is a pipe dream, in the mean time we can at least celebrate when they get taken out naturally. I wouldn’t like rub it in the family’s face (unless they were Nazis as well) or anything, but I’m definitely not even gonna act sad about it. The more pain they feel as they die, the harder I laugh. Tough lessons suck to learn. Sorry NOT sorry.

  As a last note, I think that would be the better world, and it would be defending ourselves from their existence, which is a threat to everyone. As long as that idea is still in someone’s head, no one is safe.

  I feel based on the name of the community, some rules would be obvious. But a “absolutely nothing from you, male scum” isn’t obvious.

  I posted one there yesterday or this morning, haven’t checked on it, but it’s probably deleted now. No harm no foul. It wasn’t meant to break a rule, and they can do what they want. But I would’ve never even known if not for this post.

  But I will be blocking the sub now. Both because I’m apparently not welcome, and because I will probably accidentally do it again otherwise.

  Finally, an actual good use of the “chainsaw of bureaucracy”.

  But yeah, this needs to be said more.

  The problem for me is that it’s hard to see them being more than a potential child molester.

  Maybe not so much if it’s like just “the forbidden kink”, but if it’s more of the main show it feels like they’re just so much more likely to do it eventually.

  Now I haven’t read any data on it, but it does naturally raise concern to be wary.

  But people at large really love an easy target to dump rage on. And I get it, I’ve been in that crowd.

  I may have been saddled with a really weird collection of my own kinks, preferences, and desires, but at least all of mine are kid free. And at my age I still call 20-somethings kids.

  The math doesn’t math.

  Even assuming the drinks cost $3, even if all 60 bought one, that’s $180, not 2 or 3 hunnid.

  And that’s not counting the work to do the interviews, as mentioned by others, or counting the work to do inventory and stick the machine, it even the cost of the drinks themselves.

  Bro really doin all this work for what accounts to maybe $30 profit on a good day. Which would be ok for a tiny amount of work, but even if he does this at his regular job, is just a decent chunk extra, not a ton.

  Even when I was in that kind of group, I would feel embarrassed about pushing in a group. I didn’t realize I didn’t believe it yet, but that always felt odd and embarrassing in a group, and so pointless when alone.

  I was still too brainwashed to think anything of it, but part of me always knew.

  That’s just copiun. Anybody with anything rattling around in their skull at all just wants IDF to die.
