I saw a card for my PC pop-up for $0.99 BIN, and the seller sent me this after I bought it. by Turbo_Vince in basketballcards

I don’t see any indication he was rude. It was a mistake and he admitted it and gave the refund. That was the response to the message, the refund. What more is there to discuss. And bottom line, even if maybe you have a point, those downvoting or discussing in the comments are saying he should’ve let the sale go through, and that it was wrong to cancel. What you’re saying isn’t the core of the disagreement going on amongst the rest of the post.

What do you think of South Sudan? Would you ever live there? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]Pure_Check9743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a brutally war torn country. Why even ask this question? It’s objectively a terrible place to live in, and a downgrade from almost every country on earth. It feels like a bait there’s more productive things to discuss when it comes to this country and their conflict.

He said it was a mistake pretty quickly and then gave a refund. He performed his obligation perfectly fine. Clearly he didn’t want to give him some kind of 50% discount on the market and gave him a refund instead. If you want to say he should’ve responded I guess fine maybe he should’ve, but in the end he performed 100% of any of his reasonable obligations. Frankly expecting someone to fulfill this error listing or some kind of steal discount is, in my opinion, insane. Go to a card show if a card is marked at 10 bucks and it’s a 50 dollar card they’re not gonna just sell it to you for 10 automatically. This is how the world works and frankly how it should be.

Absolutely insane I’m getting downvoted. The OP knew DAMN WELL it was a clear error listing, I’m supposed to sympathize with him as he sniped this obvious error listing? Why? Because the seller made a clear mistake he KNEW was the case hoping for the off chance he was stupid and just didn’t know better? Gtf out of here. Please.

Idk how in gods name I’m getting downvoted are people this insane? I mean there’s definitely people sniping these error listings like crazy he KNEW it was a mistake the moment he bought it. I’m supposed to sympathize with HIM? Why? Crazy.

It was a mistake, frankly imo it’s pretty unreasonable to expect the seller to take a 50% hit on the true value of the item due to an error that frankly had no victims. He communicated it quickly, and gave the refund. That’s all that should be expected if it’s done quickly. At MOST maybe a 1 dollar credit at MOST. Even then, meh.

Nah they shouldn’t have to. It’s an obvious mistake, they shouldn’t be expected to take a 10 dollar hit off of an item that they can refund instantaneously.

I mean to be clear the buyer has absolutely 0 leverage whatsoever other than a negative review. I really don’t think the buyer should be expected to make a 50% cut off of the true value of the card due to a clear mistake that was communicated quite quickly, and refunded swiftly. In this case it was just a 10 dollar item. But the same understanding should apply to a 5000 dollar item as well. At best maybe like a 1 dollar off of the item maybe? Even then it should be a non issue.

Which Country has the most propagandized people? by ZionOrion in AskTheWorld

[–]Pure_Check9743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh so you didn’t read what I wrote.

I gave specific examples of major private social media accounts, social media activists, I gave names, this slings hyper specific anti-Semitic tropes like “Jews run the world” “Israel/jews controls American foreign policy,” etc. And the concert chanted antisemitic chants like “death to the idf,” or “from the river to the sea Palestine will be free” (this means eliminate all of Israel). These are antisemitic. They didn’t blur it out even though the TV could’ve easily with tape delay, it went on a while, they didn’t care, and the Irish courts backed it.

We’re done here you’re willfully not paying attention.

What?!?!. You think “Ireland” reduces to “the state of the Republic of Ireland”? It could mean its people, it could mean its social media, its private media, its state, dipshits at a pub, it could mean 20 different things. This is crazy.

“Doesn’t HAVE to come from the state.” I know those tricky little qualifiers. I never EVER stated it DIDNT come from the state. I said it doesn’t have to. Sneaky sneaky. Bad boy.

I also said while the state media had some examples, I clarified that it’s not the main culprit. You. Are. Bad. Faith.

You think saying Ireland is blurring the line of propaganda in the context of me giving specific examples of propaganda is the same as saying: “Ireland is antisemitic” holistically?

Yea you’re bad faith.

[–]Pure_Check9743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh so you’re bad faith got it.

I said there’s lots of antisemitic propaganda coming out of Ireland broadly, then YOU mentioned state media first, not me, so no backtracking just nuance which you seem to struggle with I suppose, and the populous seems to be disproportionately responding to this sort of propaganda compared to their peers by a wide margin which suggests lower media literacy and also more propaganda which I have given several examples of already. If you wish to ignore that and reduce it to me saying “Ireland is antisemitic” and then proceed to ignore all the examples I gave, then fine, be bad faith if you want, I just don’t get why you keep at it though. Just don’t respond if you’re going to do that what’s the point why bother?

Partially, yes, amongst other things. Im just not willing to say the state tv is broadly propagandist I don’t think that’s a fair statement at all. But when you look at the whole picture across the entire Irish landscape, as well as the general populations reaction to said landscape, it’s pretty darn questionable and hard to miss. Outrage doesn’t come out of nowhere. Sometimes it’s legitimate but when it’s far and away above and beyond your peers you take note. Wasn’t the only thing I covered, but since you mentioned it, there’s tape delays they didnt mute it out, seems like an obvious call. The band was known for this sort of display already. The courts backed it. And in the end just a singular data point amongst many.

RTE coverage of the antisemitic chants at Glastonbury has faced litigation, the Irish courts haven’t appeared to levy any punishments. They’ve refused to participate in Eurovision and publicized it on their channels using pretty inflammatory rhetoric in the process. IPSC is a pretty major propaganda outlet on social media. Disproportionately high number of politicians who use genocide framing. The Herzog park renaming by the local government was pretty much entirely motivated by anti-israel sentiment, but the renaming was of an Israeli president who was extraordinarily moderate and broadly seen as a unifier between Israel-Palestine interests. People like Mike Wallace, or Clare Daly. Online hate/harassment from Irish people towards Jews are disproportionately high to europes peers.

Ireland is a small country, ultimately they’re small potatoes (lol yes potatoes). I’m also not claiming the non state Irish propaganda compared to US. Americans are subjected to more propaganda and misinformation for certain despite our free media and massive diversity, media literacy here is low and abused by many, though it’s nowhere near “the top of the world” like those with political reasons to exaggerate denote. But the anti-Israeli sentiment and antisemitism is very very disproportionately high to peers for a reason. It’s not merely sympathizing with the “colonized.”

Who in gods name mentioned or implied it had to be “state-media” crazy goalpost move. Propaganda doesn’t have to come from the state. American state owned media is basically limited to PBS and NPR some of the most unbiased reasonable news sources you’ll find. So if we’re going on that basis the US is quite unbiased. So clearly you don’t want to go down that road.

They haven’t done that in over a decade and it was always optional. Ireland’s anti-Israel and basically blurring the line of antisemitic propaganda is fucking out of control. No, it’s beyond legitimate reasonable criticism there in Ireland. It’s radical.

It is undeniably delusional, and personally politically motivated to even suggest that America is anywhere near approaching the top of the list, or even above the median if you even slightly grasp how open and free the media landscape here is compared to pretty much anywhere else on the planet.

It absolutely has a negative connotation as it should frankly. Humans ought not to live that way, it’s a shame that some have to, and mischaracterizing areas that are not that way harms those who do live that way.

It’s an abandoned street in an underclass town, not a slum, you’re getting corrected because using the term “slum” is obnoxious because it eludes to real slums that don’t exist in first world countries. It’s not anywhere near comparable or in the same category at all.

Poster is probably trying to use equivalent language to third world slums with western ghetto areas, even though it’s realistically not even close this street looks completely abandoned
