The bad news is Ronnie was also senile and the people surrounding him still managed to cause generational harm.

I think I got your point we just disagree about the culpability and responsibility of (willful) ignorance bruh.

I’m sure the people scammed out of their money feel really bad she was so ignorant she couldn’t do a tiny bit of research on the thing she was promoting.

Pretty gross you’re treating a grown woman as a naive child tbh. She’s an adult with agency and ignorance isn’t an excuse.

I’ve seen hotter. No matter how you slice it the Pope is the head of an organization that systematically covered up child abuse for decades, probably centuries.

The person you asked to correct the incorrect information you posted isn’t an expert nor should random people be forced to correct your incorrect statements even if they were an expert. Double down and do the mental gymnastics you need to, it doesn’t matter that much to me, but maybe try to verify information before you just repeat things you think you read.

it’s not “hur-dur, just glue it” that everyone always paints it as.

I agree AI hallucinations can be far more dangerous and more believable than glue on pizza. I used that reference because everyone remembers it. Pulling “answers” with no context is the problem.

You made a claim with absolutely no references or sources then asked someone else to disprove your claim. That’s not how conversations or debates work at all. If you’re incapable of fact checking even the most basic statement conversations with you will never be productive and you’ll only be a useful idiot repeating the last thing you misread, do better.

Lazy users just posting whatever 3rd hand half truth they misunderstood is a scourge. It might as well be a glue-pizza recommending AI post.

Ever play the old Wolfenstein PC game? You eventually make it to the final boss and it’s just a big mech with Hitlers head.

I imagine it’s like that.

We could all lose a few pounds but sharing a meal is a huge thing, take that thicc person out and enjoy meal with another human being you animals. You might even find you have some commonality and you’ll feel slightly less isolated when the meal is done.

“Matt Gaetz does Republican shit.” would’ve been accurate.

Well yeah but we’re not born rich to the ruling class. Our fathers and grandfathers weren’t Senators like Mattys were.

Rules for thee, not for me.

I don’t really disagree with what you’re saying but it’s important not to dismiss peoples experience at the grocery store and when it’s time to pay their bills as “how they feel about the economy.”

The NASDAQ doesn’t put gas in a car or milk in a fridge, that shit is still expensive.

They remember what happened, they elected Biden and their material conditions worsened so they re-elected the guy that could at least be bullied into cutting them a rebate check.

I’m not saying I agree with their assessment but I can understand it.

My spouse and I both did.

I was a pack per day smoker for 15-20 years. Switched to vaping as it was becoming so popular. Stepped down the nicotine over the course of a few years until I finally just got tired of going and buying 1mg juice and stopped. Haven’t had a vape in about 2 years and a cigarette in about about 5.

I still get a craving now and then but it passes. Cigarettes usually just smell like a disgusting ashtray and I’m glad I don’t smoke anymore.

edit: we both actively wanted to quit and I’m so happy it worked for us

I’m not sure what you think that statement means.

What was their guess? Their statement was a non-answer at best.

Dude you’re thinking way too deeply into, it really is as simple as “that’s just how cops and lawyers talk, nobody is going to give away anything.”

On top of that we have pretty serious restrictions called HIPAA on releasing private healthcare information and no insurance provider in the world is just going to go ahead and confirm plans details or lack of one if they don’t have to.

There is no war but the class war comrade.

We have more in common with an entitled boomer or homeless man than we do with Elmo or Zuck (or McConnell or Pelosi) or any of the other elite. Everything else is a distraction to class consciousness, don’t fall into the same trap lead-brained and propagandized victims of childhood abuse do. They are not the enemies.
