This is baby-brain shit. Ignoring the criticism doesn’t make more people vote for Biden.

The fact is that people hate Biden’s support for genocide. There were literal IRL protests at every major college campus. They weren’t “Russian bots”.

You don’t need to have “equal-footing” with anyone in order to treat them with the moral consideration they deserve or to love them. Thinking about it in terms of “equal-footing” is a weird thing to do.

Participating in…? Adopting animals and treating them like family when the alternative is that they may not have been adopted or loved?

I don’t buy animals, and I don’t treat them like property because it is wrong to do so. It’s more than just not using the term “pet”. It’s about treating other sentient beings with the consideration they deserve.

I’ll add to some of the other comments here by saying that I think the term “pet” doesn’t quite capture the relationship that vegans would describe as ethical. “Pet” implies a sort of status that is lower than the rest of the family. Closer to some inert object that you can enjoy and put away when you’re bored.

I prefer to think of them as members of my family. They are family, not pets, not property.

I’m happy to get the refund from Valve when scumfuck companies decide to rug-pull like this. If it happens, it’s usually long after I’ve beaten the story and become bored with the game. It’s a win for me 🙂

Russia can get the fuck out of Ukraine whenever they want to.

UTM is not an emulator. It’s virtual machine software. It utilizes QEMU, which is an emulator, but they are different things.

It’s fine for laypeople to mix this up, but it’s annoying to see every tech headline get it wrong.

His voter registration info actually shows that he voted in the 2022 mid-terms. This would have been his first time voting for a president though.

Animal agriculture. Let’s keep doing this /s

It also just looks objectively cool as shit.

“No ethical consumption” excuse-havers when I buy slave labor: this is just fine 😌

Same link, without Google’s bullshit tracking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gK41QTb24ng&t=1731

Also, Ryan Grim and The Majority Report are great.

Banning animal agriculture is the only way to prevent this. Animal exploitation is why we get most zoonotic pandemics, and continuing to allow to to happen will result in more suffering for everyone else.

The user hasn’t spoken about the genocide.

Lmao. Did you look? Simply check their post history during the height of the anti-genocide protests.

Every post is a direct attack against Biden and in turn a campaign ad for Trump. Feels an awful lot like a Russian propaganda agent or a closeted trump thumper, which is the same thing.

This is just immature black-and-white and conspiratorial thinking. Pointing out that Biden is ass on Palestine and people are concerned about his age is literally just pointing to reality. These are things that people I talk to IRL are all saying.

It’s faaar from a hot take, but I guess all the people I know IRL are just pro-Trump, Russian bots, despite consistently voting democrat for as long as I’ve known them 🤷

If you don’t want people pointing out the glaring issues with the presumptive democratic nominee, don’t bend over backward to justify the problematic nominee. The criticism and disdain isn’t going to go away by ignoring it.

Lobby your government to nationalize it. Anything that important can’t be left to private industry.
