5·9 months agoI don’t think that’s fair. Plenty of people in this world do not know much about computers or the internet or anything in that area and just need a printer. So they go to their local big box store and there’s the HP printers and they’re a good deal, so they buy them.
Consumers do not get what they deserve when companies treat them like shit just because they don’t have certain knowledge.
1·9 months agoHe has almost no filter and I think if he was a secret KGB operative, that would not be a secret by now because it would have just come out at random at some point.
He’s extremely malleable, loves rich people and authoritarians, and will agree with almost anyone who kisses his ass. So it’s pretty easy for Putin to just wrap him around his little finger.
Dahl was a great author but wasn’t a very pc person , his family have had to apologise for his anti semitism.
That is putting it very mildly.
"There is a trait in the Jewish character that does provoke animosity, maybe it’s a kind of lack of generosity towards non-Jews. I mean, there’s always a reason why anti-anything crops up anywhere. Even a stinker like Hitler didn’t just pick on them for no reason.”
He said that in *checks notes* 1971.
Worse, it was in response to criticism to an article he wrote that was justifiably criticizing Israel at a time when it wasn’t so popular to do so. And when he was accused of the old “you’re anti-Israel, so you’re anti-semitic” nonsense, he decided to go, “hell yeah I am!”
Cis women can regret breast implants, but somehow I don’t hear anyone advocating for stopping breast implants for cis women. You can even get them if you’re under 18. For purely cosmetic reasons.
I can’t help but notice that none of your posts have been removed. Maybe you want them to be?
Sorry… you think medical care isn’t a right?
And if not, don’t you think maybe it should be?
And they have the same rights as I do, assuming they are a legal citizen of the USA.
No. No they don’t. Trump has ensured that.
This is from 19 days ago and he has done a lot more since.
In just one example- A cisgender person will have no trouble getting things like testosterone or estrogen if their doctor says they need it. Trans people are losing that right.
There is a vast, vast gulf between blindly trusting the medical industry and accepting your personal conspiracy theory that doesn’t even make sense.
Sure. It was one of many examples I could have given, but that is one of the first ones kids are, and always should be, taught.
I can’t speak for them, but I concluded it from one single sentence.
Cool. One person talks about a trans agenda in this thread, another person is making up silly medical conspiracies to dehumanize trans people as if they had no agency.
Teenagers don’t even go to doctors by themselves. They have to be accompanied by a parent.
I will always have your back. I will have the back of anyone judged by their inherent traits.
Sorry. Can’t pay attention to this thread. Too busy typing 5318008 into my calculator.
The contractor?
Hey, they call those rice paper things in Japan walls too, so…
Hey, it’s the door of our bathroom!
They don’t have a definition of “actual women,” because every one they can give has to come with massive “exception to the rule” issues.
You do know that downvoting doesn’t hide posts on Lemmy like it does on Reddit, right?
Plus, there are contrarians everywhere.
