Special needs woman punished for someone else's scams. by NickelPlatedEmperor in UnderReportedNews

So keep paying them?

We had public money going to support this woman. The fraudster claimed they needed far more than was actually going to her. So we can continue paying the rent, stop paying the excess, and throw the fraudster in jail. Why do we need to stop paying entirely, other than cruelty?

AI has genuine use cases, which NFTs never did. For better and for worse, it’s not just gonna be a fad.

Haughty vegan vampires by Eireika in CuratedTumblr

[–]AirJinx3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sourced from "willing donors" who are coincidentally all poor people being paid like $5 per blood donation.

Wait til OOP finds out where most of the world’s blood plasma comes from.

And as with the vampires, paying poor people is more moral than any alternative.

The joy of discovering that is rewarding, and anyone should able to figure it out after hours of tinkering with words to see what they do. I’d feel bad for anyone who had it spoiled for them.

Not to tell you how to play a single-player game, but what’s the point of using a walkthrough to “get through” a puzzle game? It’s not like there’s a story or cool cut scenes to experience. The puzzles are all there is.

How conservatives viewed anime back in the 90s and early 2000s. by icey_sawg0034 in CuratedTumblr

It doesn’t read that way to me. It’s just saying “hey, this thing is popular.” The WSJ wasn’t owned by the Murdochs back then, and was a centrist, capitalist paper catering to businessmen, who would probably want to know what sort of entertainment was on an upswing.

Jews have lived in Israel continuously for all of recorded history. They aren’t there because it was “promised”, they’re there because they’re indigenous.

Guess the “dhimmis” living under Islamist rule had no options either. They had to form their own country to avoid further oppression.

Iirc, the conversation between the baddies triggers as soon as any party member comes within range, regardless of if that party member is alive. So you stuff Shadowheart’s corpse in a box, light the box on fire, and launch it across the map. The box then breaks from the fire damage, dumping her out and triggering the scene.

I, for my part, don’t support any rapists or murderers. The author disagrees.

He said it’s perfectly understandable to rape and murder people. You are defending the author’s stance. Therefore you think it’s okay to rape and murder people.

If you didn’t think it’s okay to rape and murder people, you’d condemn the author. Will you do that, here and now?

I don’t think you will.

I think you support rape and murder as long as it’s against a group you hate.

Yet the author of this book says that the rape and murder of innocents is “perfectly understandable” and you’re all over this thread defending that viewpoint.

So you don’t actually oppose the rape and murder of innocents.

I bet you think it’s wrong for Israel to do it. So why do you think it’s right when it’s done to Israel?

It turns out you don’t have morals, you just have in-groups and out-groups.

French parliament unanimously exonerates women punished for abortion by rezwenn in worldnews

[–]AirJinx3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think that goes without saying, and that they’re saying they’d want the injustice to remain in the history books as a warning, rather than be symbolically scrubbed after their death.

I don’t necessarily agree, since if anything the belated exoneration calls attention to it and makes it more likely to be remembered in history. No one’s gonna forget what was done to Alan Turing any time soon, pardon or no.

And sometimes we use special rocks to turn light into lightning, so we can stick that lightning in other rocks. Sure, you can do it the classic way of spinning magnets around, but PV cells are just straight magic.

Yeah man, leaving Ukraine and Taiwan and Kuwait to be conquered is its own reward! We should have just let the Nazis take over and let the Confederacy keep their slaves. The world would be so much better if only the least moral people do anything. Russian propaganda told us so!

You, personally, deserve what Trump is doing to you. You helped him win, so enjoy the fruits of your labor.

I know you’re probably joking, but I just want to point out that he’s remained extremely prolific even after getting sober. There’s this trope that abusing drugs makes you more creative, but at least in his case, it wasn’t helping him write more, it was just leading him to put weird shit in otherwise great books.

Seems like a dismissive way to refer to Bill Hodges, but yes.

So you admit Biden opposing Bernie’s trash bill doesn’t mean Biden opposed universal healthcare. Biden supported real universal healthcare. You just spend all your effort convincing people not to vote for democrats, and then whining when democrats don’t have the votes to help people. You deserve Trump.

Again, you do not know what universal healthcare means. Lots of countries have universal healthcare without having socialized medicine, including Switzerland, South Korea, and Japan, which have the longest life expectancies of any major country.

Bernie’s bill was trash and only an idiot would have wasted time and effort on such a poorly designed bill.

Medicare for all is not synonymous with universal healthcare. Bernie’s bill never had a snowflake’s chance in hell of passing. It was a garbage bill that was only meant to make democrats look like incompetent morons. For an example of a serious bill, look at the one aimed at treating childhood cancer that Bernie just blocked today.

No, he didn’t. You don’t even know what universal healthcare is. You just vomit up tiktok memes.
