that’s the thing that pisses me off: the tax often increases the perception of how much people are willing to spend. even if you remove or decrease the tax, the companies just inflate the price to fatten their margins. Rule #1 of capitalism: the consumer always loses.

I mean, stupidity and group think are just parts of having conversations in large groups as happens on these internet forums. I have not been impressed with the quality of intellect on Lemmy. But at least its not like Reddit where every mildly interesting subreddit has a minimum Karma count of like 30, and at least I’m not getting permabanned left and right over completely benign BS like saying I think Christianity is a net positive. I can say what I want here, and people can downvote it and I might even get mobbed… but at least I’m not being micromanaged.

Reddit sucks. They’re the reason I came to Lemmy. They’re absolute trash.

you have low reading comprehension. I never said any of that lmfao.

Lmfao Brian Thompson is not Benito Mussolini lmfao XD

If his life was in danger, or he knew someone who was being denied claims that had died or their life was threatened, and he knew that the death of the CEO would lead to saving the lives of said victims, then its justifiable homicide.

But if his medical bills were paid for (they were), and he had no immediate relations being denied life-saving treatments (which he didn’t), and he had no personal connection to United Healthcare (he was never insured by them), and he had no logical reason for believing that killing Brian Thompson would suddenly cause all insurance companies to massively improve rates of claim approval (he had no reason for believing this), then its not justifiable homicide: its just plain murder.

you do realize there is psychological damage from the stunts she is pulling, right? Like, getting railed by endless strangers does not leave you unscathed. Did you watch the documentary? She literally breaks down in tears. She is not happy. She is being taken advantage of. This is not healthy. The brain is not intended to endure that kind of psychological trauma, even if its self-induced.

said the person who couldn’t refute my logic because I’m right.

start with myself? like, start spreading awareness? bro, I literally shared the link to a video. this whole post is about spreading awareness. room temp iq lmfao
