It does, but sometimes shortened in a way that EU law don’t allow, like instead of “flavouring A, flavouring B, preservative 1” just “natural flavourings and preservatives”

Aye, USA famously have terrible consumer rights so they can get away with shite like this
EU and UK (for now) have stuff like the Square Bananas act and the False Advertising act where this would be classified as illegally lying to the consumers and get the product taken off of shelves.
We even for USA imports have this policy that they must have their ingredients list covered by a more accurate sticker

Especially as the UK porn ban has been a HUGE boon to those VPN providers, suddenly gaining literally millions of customers

I’m curious, how do two huge groups with myriad subsects and differences between each other feel about these laws?

I do worry this will turn out yet another case of “Right Thing, Wrong Reason” like the gov keep fucking doing, again and again

The term has the meaning now of “pointlessly explaining something in a way that’s intentionally trying to be detracting of the other party, like a stereotype of a man would do”, rather than being locked into gender
- Comment on A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again 3 months ago:
Vibes across as mansplaining, it didn’t add anything to the context
- Comment on A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again 3 months ago:
