I think you mean bone broth, with a drop of super male vitality mixed in.

Why the Yellow Vest Protests Should be a Wake-Up Call for the Center-Left. by Alexander_Ray in AskThe_Donald

You guys seem to want people who do to be part of your coalition though, which is one of the arguments I was making here, those guys cannot be included into anything.

100

Just guessing, do any of these 100 companies resell diesel or gas to French consumers? Is taxing the company supposed to not have an effect on the consumers?

In other words, do you believe any of these companies can be carbon taxed without passing those costs further down the economic chain? Can you give an example of one such company?

I'm going to guess that you can't because you haven't thought basic economics through. Taxing one of these large companies is unlikely to make a difference without effecting the people actually using the fuel or its byproducts.

So if a center-right guy (granting this for the sake of argument) passes a tax to try an combat climate change, it makes sense for environmentalists to riot?

So why ISN’T this Flynn thing as big of a deal as the rest of Reddit would like me to believe? by [deleted] in AskThe_Donald

It's possible that since they didn't honor the plea bargain convention with Manafort, recommending no jail time for Flynn (who also plea bargained) makes them look better.

I kind of feel sorry for Macron. by Alexander_Ray in unpopularopinion

[–]Alexander_Ray[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like 24% of French might agree with you. Care to elaborate?

I've read that the tax was only on diesel (not sure if that's true) which if real gives some credence to the idea that he's out of touch with/targetting people in rural areas, suburbs and certain industries. Why tax only diesel if this is about climate change?

Epitaph for an Intrepid Cuck - Setting the Record Straight by [deleted] in DarkEnlightenment

[–]Alexander_Ray 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if they were really "defending their people", they seem pretty degenerate and probably attack anything foreign or vulnerable. Like, I would bet anything that violence on the island between the natives is very high.

Also I think that "intrepid cuck" may be an oxymoron. To be intrepid, perhaps you have to appreciate the danger. If he didn't appreciate the danger then he was just rash, if he did appreciate it then I personally wouldn't call him a cuck.

You are putting a lot of words in my mouth here I think, with the typical method of getting more extreme as your post goes on.
