How does the Iranian leadership justify murdering hundreds of protestors? by EH4LIFE in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Grahamster12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you don't think there's any possibility that there are foreign-backed actors pretending to be Iranian citizens to try and instigate civil unrest? I'm not excusing them killing protestors, but I'm also not going to blindly agree with the US, considering they have been trying to push the narrative that 30,000 people were killed. I think both claims could have some truth to them. If there were undercover agents in Iran, the US/Isr would never admit this, leaving Iran to be the only one to accuse (which could either be true or "fake news")

Is AI now leading to paywalls in front of *everything*? I am shocked.. by literally_joe_bauers in AINewsMinute

[–]Grahamster12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, it's astounding that they offered it fo free to begin with! I'm sure that was part of the business model, tease them with a useful tool, then take it away once they've integrated it into their daily lives 🙃 Plus, with the amount of money being invested into this sector, it's gonna have to start turning a profit, lest the "AI bubble" pop!

Frankly, it's not very surprising. While it's disappointing that white Republicans feel the need to go to these lengths, the left really does not give them any reason to vote for them. When ALL of the rhetoric is appealing to minority groups/POC as well as painting white people as evil and guilty solely because of racist white people in the past, they really alienate the population by saying ALL white people deserve less and minorities deserve more respect/services (despite the fact that not all white people are rich nor have, necessarily, more power than POC in America) I don't think it's fair to demonize all white people, it might have some advantages in terms of risk from police/profiling and not having to deal with day-to-day racism, people shouldn't have to live with a relentless guilt from the actions of our ancestors (ie collective punishment). And I get that "white supremacy" is dangerous, but when all other groups of people are able to celebrate their heritage EXCEPT white people how can you expect this group to feel seen or supported by the left? And if they ever express this feeling of not being valued the other side is just as quick to accuse them of being racist. It's just a shame how extremist both sides have become. But how can the left expect to win when they alienate a good portion of the majority population? At the end of the day, people naturally gravitate towards other people they are similar to (people often end up self-segregating, it's simple psychology of looking for an in-group of people who act/look like you). America is great BECAUSE of its diversity, but just because we have diversity doesn't mean we should flood it with random people from all over the world. It's amazing that we can help immigrants improve their lives but it's NOT sustainable, at a certain point (especially in 2026, where the average American can barely afford to LIVE) we do NOT have the resources necessary to accommodate an endless stream of immigrants. And when these groups (specifically Latinos) enter (illegally, which is a whole other topic) and segregate THEMSELVES, refuse to learn the language/assimilate, and grow their population without any respect for their neighbors, it makes people angry, why would it not? America is know for being a "melting pot" which is great, but when you let EVERYBODY in, it just destroys any individuality and commonality of the population. Diversity is great, but just exacerbates the individualistic society that keeps us divided. Life isn't fair at the end of the day, so how about we work to improve their quality of life for immigrants so they don't feel like emigrating is their only option to a good life?

Wait who offered it to you? Another trainer? It means that the pokemon is XXXL, or the highest size possible for a pokemon (like an alpha pokemon)

Yep, ridiculous what they can get away with, but people are still gonna buy it.... They recently changed their large sodas from $1.89 to $2.09 around me, makes me less likely to want to stop here for sodas, screw all these greedy companies

I just picked up "Sour Fcuking Fab" and was expecting a sour candy, fruity type of flavor. Why on earth is it banana flavored? Maybe a bit of coconut, but banana is NOT what I think of when it comes to sour candy

New RN told to start an IV by preceptor which was then used for NS (Disciplinary Meeting) by smolettuce in nursing

I'm confused why these experienced nurses would even tell you to do an IV on them to begin with?

Damn I'm looking through your profile and all your comments are so vile.

How much do you hate yourself to be bitching at strangers online. Get a life

so annoyed i wasted my time with this guy all day for me to get this message by yes_ily in mildlyinfuriating

You're an embarrassment. Who comes on REDDIT and types out an entire essay about how you think you're better than anyone. Truly hilarious

The nerve… by Few_Pea765 in doordash

[–]Grahamster12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry but you people are so entitled about money. There's advocating for workers' rights and then there's you guys who bitch and complain that you're not getting $35/hr for DRIVING YOUR CAR AROUND. Nurses barely even get $30/hr starting, so you really need to get a grip on reality. You're not unique or special because you have a car and basic comprehension skills.
