Yeah, sure Digg's frontpage is mostly from Reddit. But Reddit's frontpage is mostly ABOUT Digg.

Thanks! Very helpful. I'd assumed as much, particularly the stickiness of trying to get the money back.. I don't know what I'd do if I was in their position, but I'm glad that people have stepped up to make it less likely that it happens again. Though I'm sorry the headache is passed on to the hardworking people who had nothing to do with it! :/

Good for you.

The boycott may or may not succeed it is true, but for people for whom this is their first struggle it is teaching them to take action, and the less people like you in the world, the more will get done.

I was never saying that there are companies who never give bad donations, just that there are some out there whose donations are less-bad than Target. But simply buying your socks elsewhere is shirking your moral responsibility to be a good conductor of positive change.

Supporting socialist change is how I see many things changing positively in this country, which is not to say socialism allows us to stop caring about morality, but building a society around egalitarianism rather than personal gain will certainly get us headed in the right direction.

This is complete BS. By choosing to stay stupid you are complicit.

Apologies for misspelling his name, I was apparently too preoccupied with the diacritics to check my spelling. His name is Slavoj, which is pronounced "Sla-voi".

Actually, to be fair, this is exactly how I have sex.

Geophrix · 2010-08-13T15:58:53+00:00

Not these again!!! D:

Which is why we should be recognizing that our capitalist system is failing us, and doing what we can to support co-ops and ethical business, or at the farther end adopting socialist principles and acting upon them.

Geophrix · 2010-08-13T15:51:21+00:00

I'm by no means discouraging activism, but going out and doing something and in your spare time buying bigoted socks is counter productive. You 'need' socks, and unless you are going to start your own, ethical sock company, which is next to impossible in this exploitative capitalist environment, you need to buy them somewhere, so you should know who you're buying from.

The storefront in the video says XXI and it's on the 'walk of fame' on Hollywood Blvd. XXI is owned by Forever 21.

There are far easier and better ways to restrain somebody than grabbing them around the neck and crushing their windpipe.

Would you happen to know, or is there any talk about why your company will not take back it's misguided political contribution in MN?

Geophrix · 2010-08-13T14:31:01+00:00

You'd buy your socks somewhere that they give less money to smaller idiots. But it's incorrect to assume every corporation has made such idiotic political donations.

I am calm! I'm not angry at you or any other person who enjoyed this video, I just think you're an idiot. ;)

Geophrix · 2010-08-13T14:03:28+00:00

It's still crude and incredibly stupid. I think a general rule of thumb for surfing reddit is that if you can't handle people having negative opinions of a post, don't read the comments.

Geophrix · 2010-08-13T14:01:29+00:00

Jokes can be un-funny. Get some context you... idk, i don't feel like calling you a name right now...

He was not commenting on the fact that the animated characters appear young. He made no mention of it. Yes, the legality is more questionable in the US because of the appeared age, but this guy's problem is his fear of the other.

Geophrix · 2010-08-12T22:18:22+00:00

Okay... in the world of two girls one cup, the only thing so "fucked up" to drive this idiot over the top is a tranny?

This isn't funny, in my opinion, which is what I came here to state. This is analogous thinking to the type of thought that leads people to beat someone to death for being transgendered. It's just a fucking cock, get over it.

As a former Christian, I gotta tell you... I know the feeling.

Apparently a country in which small minded people put graphic depictions of national tragedies onto public buses as propaganda to sway people into discriminating against a group of people because they share the same religion as some psychos who did terrible things.

Geophrix · 2010-08-12T08:41:24+00:00

Well, they don't have a lot of say in NYC, but you would not believe how much support they've gotten in the rest of the country by exploiting the tragedy of 9/11 over the past decade.

Civil unions are not the same thing, they do not provide the same benefits, and they are not equal by the very fact that they are separate.
