- Comment on What is in for the antivax in a government? 2 hours ago:
State sanctioned dilution of what it means for things to be true. It's not about the vaccines, it's about getting people to accept falsehoods.

No no and fucking no (pun intended).

When I was in the army, ...
Consider, too, that the military needs every sack of meat to be able to shoot straight, load mags, clear malfunctions, clean and maintain. By extension, the light arms they use are designed to be as dead simple as possible.

That's abridgement of the First Amendment.
- Comment on Elon Musk is trying to silence Microsoft employees who criticize Charlie Kirk 5 days ago:
First Amendment guards against state repercussions for speech, with exceptions. Careful not to conflate the legal and colloquial usages.

They literally tell you what they think you want to hear.

So do I.
- Comment on One transaction only at the ATM 1 week ago:
That card lock isn't to keep someone else from stealing your card, it's to make you take it. As long as the machine will only do what you've asked after you take your card, the bank isn't responsible for your card at all.
- Comment on One transaction only at the ATM 1 week ago:
I've seen machines that still hold the card so it can't be removed (even though it remains visible), and will only release the card before completing whatever transaction you've asked it to do. This is 100% a "we're not taking responsibility for you leaving your card in the machine" thing.

- Comment on Americans have the gun industry so far up their ass that they don't even notice their asshole is gaping. There is no other country where uneducated morons are allowed access to guns easily. 1 week ago:
OP is clearly conflating "Americans" with some very specific people they have a fair beef with.

I have yet to see any evidence americans will "use their guns" against fascists.
The people who have traditionally yelled about 2A and "the gubmint" taking their guns are today's fascists. Besides that, using firearms to topple a fascist regime that controls the most powerful military the world has ever seen will require a great deal of organization, planning, coordination, supply, and about ten times as many people doing non-"infantry" stuff to have a snowball's chance in hell of being successful - let alone the political support of a whole lot of state and local governments.
Not sure what you think should be happening short of a full civil war. I mean, that's what it's gonna take, and that's what's gonna happen, but you can't seriously think that the practical foundations are yet in place for it.
- Comment on McDonald’s CEO is grappling with a ‘two-tier economy’ as he slashes prices on value meals—and signals backing for a minimum wage increase 2 weeks ago:
And he was a goddamned Nazi.

I never suggested otherwise. I was pointing out how disconnected from reality the really “upper income” CEO is.

Over $100K ain't chump change, but that also isn't the line where "upper income" starts.
https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/heres-minimum-salary-required-be-considered-upper-class-2025
The Pew Research Center defines upper-income households as having incomes greater than $169,800, based on three-person households. For a household with a single earner and no additional income, that $169,800 is the minimum salary required to be upper class. With two earners, each with the same salary, that minimum would be $84,900 each.

- Comment on After More Layoffs, Unionized IGN Workers Are Done Picking Up The Slack: "We feel greatly understaffed and undervalued" 3 weeks ago:
The union that they’re already in should have had them doing this already. And posting it like “We’ll return to greater exploitation later.”
- Comment on After More Layoffs, Unionized IGN Workers Are Done Picking Up The Slack: "We feel greatly understaffed and undervalued" 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, the problem was not doing this from the jump. This is how everyone should work for their capitalist overlords all the time: Do exactly what your job is, during your scheduled working hours. Do it well, and go home.
They're always going to try to take advantage of you. Don't let them.

Now, I'm not saying everything isn't a shitshow. Clearly it is. Based on the general insanity, I am 100% in favor of getting vaccinated sooner rather than later. But "might" != "will".
I'm quite glad you included article links. Careful, though; the image posted is how propaganda works. By itself, it is unsourced, apart from the Unambiguous Science logo at the bottom (which could have been put there by anyone). UnSci refers to itself as
No sensational headlines, no politicizing of science. Just evidence based information.
And as noted early in this comment, the image says "will revoke" while the reporting says "might/may revoke".

Find you some Jarritos. Mexican groceries will have them in all kinds of flavors, but you can also find a few at chain stores.

It's not even a real issue. The number of trans athletes is extremely small, and none of them are out there setting crazy records.
