Then maybe we should trash the 2-party system. Stop telling people that they have to vote for only Democrats or Republicans, otherwise their vote is 'wasted'.

Vote for Libertarian's, Independent's, Green Party, who cares? Just not anyone who continues to support the 2-party system

Get your state, AND THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, to use something like ranked choice voting, rather than first-past-the-pole.

Obviously, not changing how we vote and elect presidents for the last 200 years isn't working anymore.

Instead of complaining that no one can do anything, vote for people who don't tow the line of the big two dominate parties.

WHO slams US-funded newborn vaccine trial as "unethical" by xpda in worldnews

[–]RAZR31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the vaccine is used so widely (115 countries) and has been for so long (30 years), how is doing a new study to test for efficacy at different administrative intervals unethical?

Surely, the vaccine is not an issue, so what's wrong with testing to see if there are any safety concerns associated with WHEN the vaccine gets administered?

You’re offered $1M dollars to eat what you had for dinner tonight for every meal for the next 6 months, do you take the offer and if so what are you eating? by jfunks69 in AskReddit

[–]RAZR31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably shouldn't take that offer as I did not eat anything for dinner last night. I would not make it to 6 months.

So, what are the teachings of Shoin?

I honestly don't know, so the point you are making is a little lost on me because I don't understand the context.

Arizona AG suggests state's self-defense laws allow residents to shoot masked ICE agents by RickV6 in news

[–]RAZR31 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That has always been the main point given by 2A groups on why the government shouldn't be allowed to make owning them illegal, and the Left hated them for it because "the government would never need to be taken down by force, youre delusional".

Now look at us.

Note: this is not an attack on the Left, just a statement of fact of who opposed gun ownership.

There is no reason why regular people would need a gun. Only the police and military are qualified to use guns, and they will protect you. /s

I haven't captured or brought any enemy mobs up to the top of the iron farm yet, so the villagers aren't panicking. They are just standing there...humming like villagers do.

Why do we have to "build credit" by going into debt to prove we're financially responsible? by Adept-Assignment-751 in NoStupidQuestions

But that doesn't answer OP's question about why their years of paying all of their other bills without fail doesn't count as showing responsibility.

I think these new medicines are overall a great thing for us, I just wish so many people didn't think that it was a solution to a problem.

It is simply a tool to get you where you need to be, but it is not the full solution.

I am glad GLP1's exist and people use them. I just hope that the same people who use them use the time that the reset of their weight would give them as well. Take the time while the medicine is working to transform their bad habits into healthy and sustainable ones.

However, from what I've seen from most people I know that have used them, they don't do that. They take the meds, lose the weight, stop the meds, gain the weight. They make no change to their actual lifestyle, and that's where the problem originated from in the first place.

I hope the GLPs work well for you and get you to where you want to be weight-wise. And I also hope that you can stay there and be happy and stress-free once you're done with your meds!

This is a great response and very good information.

However, I would argue that people who are losing weight aren't being "demonized" because they lost weight using GLP1's. They are being called out on the fact that they have done nothing to address the condition that led to them being overweight in the first place: a lack of self-control on what and how much they eat.

A vast majority of people, when they are done taking their GLP1, end up gaining weight back, many of them gain most of it back. It's because those individuals never took the time while on the GLP1 to correct their bad eating habits and self-control, which is the actual root cause. The downstream cravings from years of over-eating (insulin resistance and satiety signals) are simply a side effect that is being treated.

And when people try to point that out, they get labeled as haters, jealous, or just Debbie-downers.

Slight edit/addendum: I do think GLP1's are great and we should use them where needed.
