The issue is not so simple. Blocking BYD has a lot to do with protecting American manufacturing jobs. That’s not to say Biden’s tariff was the right answer. But it is a more complicated problem to solve than it appears from the perspective of a single car buyer.

There is no list… After the Trump administration removed all of his rich peers from the list, no names were left…so no list.

So neither exist? No one raised him?.. My money is on at least one of them is his parent…the other probably played a part in raising him.

Don’t believe you lying eyes!

So… AI.

Back in 1997 I worked overnight at a bank running their backup software. Lots of sitting around being bored. I took it upon myself to change the Windows 95 startup logo to say Windows 96 on a number of computers. Someone out there remembers Windows 96.

I can honestly say I have spent less than an hour in my life on all of those added together. Probably less than 10 minutes. Does that mean I am winning?

Forgetting about Kanye because he was buried under a mountain of more horrible people causing considerably more damage is probably not a good thing.

Ignoring problems doesn’t make them go away.

If it helps, one of the reasons the KKK lost power decades back was because Superman comics ridiculed them enough that people were embarrassed enough to be a part of them. Essentially, this is how you combat a culture war. Sad as it is…

Setting aside the unshakeable part, morality should be somewhat rigid. While relative, that doesn’t mean morality can or should change on a whim.

Not really a side note, this is just the tip of the “American stupidity and overconfidence that got us here” iceberg.

Wasn’t this the same justification that America used to send factory jobs overseas? I feel repeating verbatim what the US has stated is the ultimate sign of respect.

where you won’t be upsold illegal substances

Maybe the term “gateway drug” isn’t a warning for users about their habits but a warning to users about the slippery slope of companies realizing the next drug needs to be legalized and put on the shelf next to weed for more of that sweet, sweet money.

you don’t see diabetics recommending everyone constantly monitor their blood glucose and take insulin

To be fair, being aware of your glucose level isn’t a bad thing. Insulin is probably not an “everyone” thing but if monitoring blood glucose wasn’t so cumbersome, I would suggest it to anyone. It has similar value to monitoring weight, blood pressure or temperature.

Any legalization will lead to the profitization of marijuana. Even if home growing is legal, that will first be marketed as a problem in comparison to good old fashioned, chemical laced, corporate weed. Then either lobbied away. The cynic has himself wrong, he is just observant.

Agreed on Gaben. So what if he hasn’t given us the third [pick game]. At least he hasn’t gone out of his way to fuck over society for another penny.

To be fair, he might have not supported taking their rights… he might have just loved a rapist, criminal so much he was willing to overlook taking away their rights.

how quickly

Hate to break it to you, but those conservatives spent decades transforming the Republican party into what it is today. It would be unfair to dismiss their years of focus on indoctrinating and cultivating hate and fear.

It isn’t a matter of which is better - you use both, and more.
