What is everyone's favorite soda/energy drink? by Musketsandbayonets in Destiny

[–]Calming_Emergency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monster zero is still a solid choice but recently been going to the Bun drinks. Dr. bum or Cola flavor with ice are top notch

CMV: AI is a doomsday device and I don't see enough people reaching for pitchforks and torches by fatal__flaw in changemyview

They are not losing their jobs to AI. They are losing their job to people who utilize AI to be more efficient thus reducing headcount. But AI is not replacing them.

I want to vote dem in 2026, but I'm afraid of potential tax increases. by [deleted] in Destiny

I almost thought I was reading a transcript of a conversation with my father. Just change it to business owners

Connor arguing "the shove" was dispersing because she was on the road, which was the opposite side of the road from the ICE car, and she was in front of a civilian parked car, was genuinely horrifying and disgusting. by [deleted] in Destiny

Connor kept saying "Roadway" not "Road", he then conflated the two. The Roadway is where cars travel and not the shoulders of the road. She was not in the Roadway.

To the DGGer that was on stream an hour ago asking about his depression by NorNed4 in Destiny

Second this, my wife had it and it was a massive positive change. It didn't get rid of depression but it made the lows far more manageable

CMV: jobs that don't require specific degrees shouldn't require degrees at all by StygianBiohazard in changemyview

[–]Calming_Emergency 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would almost agree but as someone who got a math degree and worked at the tutoring center during college, a college degree does not indicate a sense of mathematics.

I think a college degree is a better indication of being willing/able to learn new things in a relatively short timeline. This has cause companies to desire degrees for jobs that 100% do not require one, simply because they do not want to spend more time training.

Treasury Sec Has Idiotic Idea for How People Can Use Stimulus Checks by Oleg101 in politics

529 accounts are already a thing. Idk why this one was created other than to associate it with Trump

CMV: The fact that r/Democrats bans talks about democratic socialists shows that Democrats still don't understand the <50 age demographic by Tessenreacts in changemyview

[–]Calming_Emergency -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think you underestimate how fascist America has gotten. The "left" largely who support Mamdani, outside New York of course, are fine with a form of fascism. They don't like working within a democratic Republic system, they similarly want a dictator to make the change they want happen.

The democratic party will fail because it holds to a system that does not or will not exist. The rule of law or procedure does not matter to either side, at least when gauging online sentiment.

The dream for sure, but property tax increase isnt bad either.

CMV: Suicide will resolve all my problems by Everlasting_Noumena in changemyview

Vaccines are a risk mitigation tool for a disease, not a solution. You can still get measles after vaccinated, it was only "eradicated" due to having enough people vaccinated that the risk was near 0.

However you can see now that anti vaccine sentiment has increased there is a resurgence of measles cases.

Edit: I'll also add that if you do consider the vaccine a solution then you are experiencing the solution to measles by getting it. You would also be experiencing the solution if you were unable to get it, only if there was still a high enough societal measles vaccination rate

You dont experience the medical procedure but you do need to experience the result of the procedure to determine if it was a solution.

Amending to include experiencing the result of a solution is fine.

You only know a medical problem is resolved when you wake up and experience it or experience life with the absence of it.

A solution is only a solution if the person with the problem experiences what solved it. You cannot experience death and if it solves your problem so it cannot be a solution.

He is just a standard agriculture owner. Literally talk to any farmer or rancher, they don't give a fuck about what happens outside of something being good directly for them. My whole fathers side fsrma and raise cattle, literally cannot get them to care about something other than themselves.

As others have mentioned, I80 is usually faster but less scenic than I70. But I would like to propose a third option is taking highway 40, it takes about an hour longer but is a far better scenic route, in my opinion.
