The last 2-3 chapters are explicitly socialist talking points
My high school English class (in the Deep South) explicitly left those chapters out of our study of The Jungle lol.

When have they ever chased the left?

This is the part where you say “not good enough”, thus proving the point that you you’re all a bunch of purity testing perfectionists.

What problem? If they’re stupid enough to dig it back up, they get what’s coming to em

Thanks, Captain Pedantry

The question was “without a personal account”, not “without using my existing personal account”. So it’s correct, you first must create a personal account, but misleading in that it implies one person can have multiple personal accounts.

Most of them still are obvious AI
- Comment on What kind of institutional gaslighting is this? 2 weeks ago:
Businesses don’t care about your costs. They care about paying as little as possible for as good a quality as they can.
Same way you don’t care if your grocery store mega chain got hacked and lost $300 million, that’s not your problem, if they raise the price of bread you’ll go somewhere else.
- Comment on What kind of institutional gaslighting is this? 2 weeks ago:
Not trying to be an asshole, but this is privilege in action. For low paying jobs, managers will fire you at the drop of a hat. Jobs that pay better are more secure.

- Comment on Giving someone oral is the most intimate thing you can do for someone. (IMO) 4 weeks ago:
As someone with a high sex drive, it’s not rational. It’s like hunger, or sleepiness. It’s a base biological need and the longer I go without sex the more irritable and depressed I get.
It’s not a need in the sense that I’ll die without it, but it’s a need in the sense that my mental health will deteriorate without it.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
Exactly. You need to use a cup to move the thing from its container to a mixing bowl, might as well use a measuring cup
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
You add thing using cups, dude
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
Unless you’re a professional chef it does not matter if you use 65 grams or 70 grams of something in a recipe. Makes zero difference.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
Well, I’m specifically talking about measurements in home cooking. But you have fun with that.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
You put it in the cup. Which also measures it. You don’t have to press any buttons or tare anything. You just keep adding broccoli until cup is full.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
You don’t NEED to do all that with a cup. You know how you measure a cup of brocoli? You put it in the damn cup. You don’t need to move the broccoli off the cutting board or tare your cutting board before cutting or even press any buttons. Take broccoli, add to cup. Stop when cup is full.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
Absolutely the point. Precision is not needed in the vast majority of cooking. It’s a pointless, time-consuming step.
Volumetric measurement is superior. Yes, I’d rather it be liters instead of cups, but cups is better than grams.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
How do you transfer the food from the cutting board to the scale?
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
Why should I take an extra step to weigh everything out? Why should I give up some valuable counter space for a food scale? That’s just extra work for no reason.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
The vast majority of the planet are not professional cooks.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
Why do you care about the tiny variations in volume? Recipe measurements very rarely need to be precise.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
That doesn’t sound difficult to me. I infer it’s merely not what you’re used to.

- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
What the hell is one cup of broccoli?
How does this confuse you? Get a measuring cup, scoop up brocoli. If it’s a large, whole broccoli, the recipe will say that.
Adding an extra step to weigh everything is stupid.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
“merica bad” ok edgelord
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 4 weeks ago:
A measuring cup is literally designed to be a consistent volume.
Not like a drinking cup or whatever

I was referring to the .world mods too. Lemmy.ml is just more blatant about it.
- Comment on Hypersensitive tankie mod 4 weeks ago:
More like “Rule 1 - Selective Enforcement”
They give tankie talking points a lot more leeway.
- Comment on Hypersensitive tankie mod 4 weeks ago:
It’s not just pettiness. They’re pushing manipulation.

In the 90s nobody cared about the gays.
I know a guy who was put in the hospital in 1997 because some dudes thought he was gay.
