Hey, you’re the expert.

I personally couldn’t care less about economics. There are too many things to be right and passionate about for me to start worrying about all that theoretical insanity.

Right. I must’ve missed that because I don’t care about this conversation at all. Labels were never my thing to begin with. But you can call me right-wing if it makes you feel better, as long as I get to keep my trans boyfriend.

I’m so glad you asked.

commonly accepted mechanics

I’m beginning to feel a little gas-lit.

Uh. Okay. If you say so. I wasn’t going to say anything about the No True Scotsman fallacy, but you really did force my hand with that last one. That’s outright silly, and a pretty vile attempt to coerce conformity out of of other progressives who don’t align with your perspective on economics by thinking you can label them “right-wing” for it.

Capitalism ends where left begins.

I’m not sure if you’re gatekeeping or just generalizing.

Oh, I wouldn’t know anything about that.

That doesn’t even make any sense.

Whataboutism is a form of informal fallacy.

Market Socialist

A what?

What about people who are just left?

You tell me. You’re the one who brought up army protocols.

Friendly fire. The reason I know so much about law enforcement methodology isn’t because I like them. I just genuinely believe that the community is wrong to chastise in this instance.

We have stricter rules of engagement for the Army when deployed, “Do not fire unless fired upon”

Not only is this a fallacy of false equivalence, but it’s also straight up false. This is only one of many rules of engagement that are applied contextually, such as during a reconnaissance operation where stealth is necessary, or a peacekeeping mission where hostile combatants aren’t necessarily expected. It is also not usually the role of a peacekeeper to chase down criminals to enforce another country’s laws. Obvious exceptions to this rule apply in the same way that they apply to law enforcement to allow them to protect themselves during times when they reasonably believe that a gun-toting individual is an immediate and real threat to them. The same logic usually also applies to ordinary civilians acting in self-defense.

also in many circumstances if someone throws down their weapon you must cease fire.

Of course. Until they draw a second one.

Update: It was because I triggered bot detection for not pandering in enough comment sections.

I was permanently banned from streaming (had thousands of followers at the time) for animal abuse after asking another streamer if they milk their goats, then I was permanently site banned for harassment after arguing with them about it. Don’t give me an excuse to get started.

The issue is often a result of companies paying off those 3rd party testers to use outdated equipment that can’t detect the counterfeiting methods being used, or so I’ve heard.

Maybe just me personally, but if they’re gonna put “blend” on the bottle I’d be more inclined to assume it’s intended as a selling point rather than a begrudging legal requirement.

Many thanks.

I’d like to take this opportunity to make an honorable mention of Planet Fitness, LegalShield, and BeenVerified for all having functional purchase and subscription systems yet forcing me to cancel my subscription either through writing or by phone. I will never use any of these again.

Walmart is already on my boycott list, alongside Kroger.
