The humor is lost on me
  • Haha yeah that's a solid plan for the first time in a long time ago and I think it was a good idea to go to the same place if you guys are going to be a part of the job.

  • Remember me comrades!
  • In my view, I don't think it was aimed soIely at communism. Can't speak for the intent of the poster unless they weigh in though. My view when saying they wanted to test something and then say several groups were horrible was to get a reaction from those that belong to said groups as a sort of half assed shotgun technique. I really didn't expect it to get a rise out of anyone reasonable which is why I made my initial comment. All of those groups listed have various sized vocal subgroups that will aggressively defend their view points with a "them vs us" take.

    That said the view points themselves are very different so that is where the equivalence stops.

  • Remember me comrades!
  • You seem to know what you're talking about, and not going to debate you on any of the points you just brought up. I certainly don't disagree with anything you just said. I just still feel it's a stretch to assume that comment is equating all of those things that were listed. That's not what I took away from it at all, and still don't.

  • Remember me comrades!
    1. Is wasn't mine

    2. You're trying to hard to see what you want to see in order to sound morally superior for Internet high fives.

    It is clearly a half assed joke saying that if you call a group horrible, someone with get butt hurt and respond accordingly. Which in a round about way is exactly what you did. Any further reading into it is on you.

  • Truth scroll
  • I like this comment. I'm getting so tired of the "my team good, your team bad" posts I'm seeing all over here. It's like both sides refuse to see issue in their way of living and get off on hating on the group that has been designated as "them".

    Making uppity remarks so that their echo chambers can go "LOL TRU" doesn't aid the discussion or allow them to learn from other view points.

  • New Covid wave has begun and masks should be worn again, scientists warn
  • Either a troll or a moron lol. They aren't even laying out any sort of argument, just repeating the same shit (on what I can only assume is an electronic device that "slaves" made for them to purchase)

  • Why aren’t health warnings on cigarettes expanded to alcohol?
  • I agree with you that prohibition isn't the way to do things. In my opinion the war on drugs is a waste of tax payers money and more importantly human life stuck behind bars. If you are speaking against criminalization of substances I'm with you. I'm however, not against harm reduction and education, including warning labels on products that are harmful.

  • Why aren’t health warnings on cigarettes expanded to alcohol?
  • Sure I'll establish it with in context. Just because "other things are also dangerous" doesn't mean warning should not be on the label of a known carcinogen. This is coming from someone who drinks more than he should.

    Putting a warning on the label of a product known to cause harm isn't "controlling others". You are free to still consume the product. It is allowing you to make an informed choice, even if you are unaware or unable to access that information from other sources.
