No one in their right mind would disagree with your position.

Also…astronauts…

You have just proven you have never been anywhere actually cold, at least not with adequate clothing. What temperature do you suppose people just magically start freezing to death regardless of their clothing?

That’s because your winter is many people’s summer temps.

Which you can learn about…in Maus. Ffs.

Okay, but didn’t that happen in an environment where ket was not legally available for people who may be able to benefit from it? Like…that shit already happens. And yeah it sucks.

Do you not feel he would have benefited from it being legal when he attempted to seek treatment? Might he have had less motivation to steal and suck his landlords dick if the illegal market didn’t make the drugs so cost prohibitive?

In my experience many recreational motorcyclists specifically seek out curvey roads as they are fun. Am I missing something?

I think allowing people who abuse them to, well, abuse them is an acceptable byproduct of also helping meaningfully treated various other peoples depression.

It’s not one or the other.

Cannabis as a whole is federally regulated.

They didn’t do a proper legalization like Canada though. Just half-assed it.

I’m ok with them harming some innocent people in the process of killing themselves. Greater good.

I feel the logical conclusion is to just destroy all human created content entirely to avoid being exploited by corporations. But that may not be a reasonable solution.

It would be like an artist refusing to record or perform their music for fear of someone else making money from it or copying the style.

I wasn’t referring to any form of physical work, I mean specifically within capitalism. Be it Amazon or otherwise.

All labour is exploitation.

Yep. And I’d argue it’s an almost ethical responsibility for those aware of all this to preserve a media archive via piracy. Sort of like those monks that would repeatedly copy old scrolls before they would degrade or whatever.

I was pointing out that the person calling me a corporate teat sucker was they themself one, as evidenced by their use of an iPhone.

I also trust Apple less…

And yet I somehow knew Google was collecting my personal info because it was obvious. That’s the entire point of the company lol.

When someone searches ‘big donkey dicks’ in the url bar … where exactly did they think the browser was pulling those results from? Could it be a website… called Google?

It did exactly what it was described as doing it, which is basically no cookies and no user history (for the user or other users of their computer to see). The TV commercials about buying presents for loved ones never implied anything more.

When most people talk about companies ‘stealing’ their data, it’s just companies doing what they explicitly stated in the terms and conditions and these people agreed to.

The whole Google incognito mode drama right now is a great example of this. It literally always said ‘incognito will not prevent employers, websites you visit, or your ISP from collecting data’ when opening a incognito tab. So yeah, obviously Google also knows what you are looking up and they never implied otherwise at all.

Edit: A lot of down votes, but no one ever clarified how and when exactly it was that Google was misleading. And if there actually is anyone who was legit surprised by this whole thing, can you please explain to me what you thought incognito mode did exactly?.. And if there isn’t anyone who was surprised, as seems the case so far…that’s sort of my point.
