Have you tried not doing exactly what you’re accusing them of doing?
Everybody needs to move away from the extremes, both sides, all of us.
Not all vegans are militant. Not all meat eaters are blood lusting demons.
- Comment on Top of the world, ma 1 day ago:
Not vegan, but hate the idea that they’re made fun of for trying to spread awareness. I’m not including the militant vegans here. They do more damage than they fix.
I’m sure some people do it from a high horse but vegans are far from the only type of people that do that. And the message is absolutely important, besides the cruelty part, eating animals is a huge part of the climate change problem.
- Comment on Where *does* the money come from? 2 days ago:
Yep this is the main line of attack.
“UnIoN DueS wILL sTeAL yOUr wAgEs”
$700 per year is 37 cents per hour, and you’re sure as shit to get a better raise than that every year in a union (on average).
Every sign like that just needs a little sticker: “That’s $x.xx per hour and they work to get you better raises”
Propaganda defeated
- Comment on Where *does* the money come from? 2 days ago:
I was radicalized when I worked (as a supervisor) for a big box electronics store, and there were staff interested in joining a union.
Boy let me tell you how many anti-union trainings I had to attend. And the way they villified and attacked the person who was the “leader” of the people interested.
I’m not sure exactly what they were expecting from me/us as a leadership team, but I came away from that with a crystal clear understanding of how scared corporations are of unions. And so I’ve been staunchly pro-union since.

Demonstrative bullshit. I don’t know if I can wait 11 months for Americans to figure out things are actually kinda bad and they might want to start I don’t know, doing stuff.
Let me be abundantly clear: If you are an American, and you think legitimate midterm elections are going to happen this year, congratulations, you are a blithering idiot and part of the problem.

Isn’t it worth 95,000?
I’ve been having conversations with doubters since it was 2,000 dollars. I wouldn’t waste your breath on me. I’ll be alright.
- Comment on Paul Krugman. Former Professor of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology 2 months ago:
Not at all.
Predictions for the price of Bitcoin in 2030? Give me a number. And then don’t forget it.
- Comment on Paul Krugman. Former Professor of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology 2 months ago:
That’s a shame
“What problem does this technology solve? What does it do that other, much cheaper and easier-to-use technologies can’t do just as well or better? I still haven’t heard a clear answer."
Bitcoin (not crypto) solves the problem of centralization and control of money. It is a harder form of money than gold. You can send a billion dollars for pennies across the world in 10 minutes. It is completely transparent. It can provide access to finance to people who are traditionally excluded. It cannot be censored.
If he hasn’t heard a clear answer, it’s because he’s willfully ignorant at this point. And again, crypto is 99.9% BS. Bitcoin was not the first crypto, and it won’t be the last crypto, but it is the only one of its kind and if north of a trillion dollars doesn’t convince you of that, including institutional money, then nothing will and I invite you to invest in the stock market instead and hope inflation doesn’t steal your retirement away.

The tour they canceled back around COVID times, their tickets were not cheap, but they also sold “premium” tickets that they sold for the same price as similar scalper tickets, but with all proceeds going to charity.
