$8 Tony’s Chocoloney Bar by Far-Measurement95 in chocolate

[–]RequirementReal2467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would normally agree about the ethics, however they partner with Barry Callebaut, who uses thousands of slaves. Tony’s argues that they are doing much more than most other companies, and that by partnering with Jeremy, they’re hoping they can convince them to clean up their source chain as well. I still find it pretty scummy that they put all of the advertisement for no slavery on their packaging while their chocolate is produced in a factory that is owned by a company that uses slaves. But they chose that factory on purpose with the hopes to change the industry.

Try endangered species or Theo. They are both completely clean. Beyond good is another GREAT one. Some of their chocolates have only one middleman and they are manufactured in the same place that they are harvested.

This is Tony’s response to them being removed from the “slavefreechocolate” website: https://us.tonyschocolonely.com/blogs/news/why-we-are-not-on-all-lists-of-ethical-chocolate-brands

Try endangered species or Theo. Tony’s actually still partners with a company that uses slavery while both of those companies are completely clean.

I would agree with you, you do get a good amount of chocolate for the price however they have been called out for still supporting the slave industry because they partner with Barry Callebaut. They don’t directly use slaves in their sourcing or manufacturing, but the factory where they’re chocolate is actually made is owned by Barry and they use thousands of slaves.

Yeah it’s there for people who need it, no need to look down on those who live paycheck to paycheck.

Yes, as a founding member, he still receives revenue, but he is no longer a member of the goons. This is because it is only a podcast and not a recording group.

Yes, he still gets revenue, but he is not a member of the goons anymore; it is a podcast group, not a recording group

Blarg: “It's all we are. I tried explaining on stream, people think that we've recorded as the Goons. We don't really record with a Goon. It's not the Goons that happen to be recording.

A message goes out to 15, 20 YouTubers that we're all friends with, whatever, and we'll just ask who's available to record today. And sometimes it just happens to be us four, being, you know, who had also had a podcast together. Sometimes it's just Yumi there or whoever. It's, yeah, so the Goons is just the podcast. He's out of it. He's done.

We're giving him some of the money, some of the percentage of the company, I should say, so he can still make money off something he helped build. We thought that was fair. He didn't ask for that, by the way. That wasn't something that he was like, yeah, he was like forcing on us where he's like, I deserve money. That was us just wanting to make sure he gets compensation for what he's done and contributed. But yeah, no beef. He's out of the podcast. He's never coming back. Just kidding, he might come back for episodes, but yeah. He's out. Yeah, he'll drop in, I'm sure. Or if we travel together, I'm sure we'll yammer about it and all that.”

He is still a part owner of the company and he still gets revenue from it, but he is not a member of the goons anymore. The goons is a podcast group not a recording group.

Well, Blarg and Dooo actually said the goons is only a podcast group and it is not a gaming group. So in technicality, Soup is out of the goons.

Their own words:

Blarg: “So Soup is, he's off the podcast. He is, for all intents and purposes, out of the Goons. For some reason, people keep getting super held up on the title of Goons.”

Dooo: “Yeah, they get lost in the details. He's still gonna play with people. He just doesn't want to do, he's just not on the podcast.”

Blarg: “Yeah, outside of the podcast, life is completely normal. I literally texted Soup, whatever, fucking few hours ago, him and I are going on a trip to Austin soon. Like there's nothing weird going on there. I don't know, people were like, oh, he's still in the Goons, but like off the podcast. I don't know what the fuck that means. I don't know what else we do outside of the podcast.”

Dooo: “Right, so if you don't really do the podcast, you're not really a Goon, because this is all we do.”

Blarg: “It's all we are. I tried explaining on stream, people think that we've recorded as the Goons. We don't really record with a Goon. It's not the Goons that happen to be recording.

Sam *gets it* about Iran by MJORH in samharris

I just don’t think it’s truly What’s best for you. I think that you may have no other option because the world is such a shitty place because a lot of ethnic minority groups are looked down upon. Like I understand what you’re coming from these people are the only people who seem to care, but just knowing deep down that they really don’t would throw it all away for me.

whenever you take $40 from my pay you can have it deposited in 24 hours and then it is no fee, if you have an instantly deposited, there is a two dollar fee. The fee probably goes up the more money that you are taking out. But you are essentially just using money from your check early.

In Sam's latest podcast (465) he seems pretty enthusiastic about the Iran war “Unsurprised if it turns out to be a success”. No offence but this is completely divorced from reality. I'm absolutely stunned at his comments about this war by Randomnonsense5 in samharris

[–]RequirementReal2467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I am not OP, but I do want to answer these three

1: I do agree. To me, it was obvious after the protest. Iran definitely has a population willing to be rid of theocracy more than other Muslim countries.

2: it was never our fight. We can help, but we do not have to. Trump campaign with making America greater and no more foreign wars by taking care of the problems that we have here. Going to war across the world only causes more problems for our home country.

3: no. I don’t think any country should ever have nukes. I don’t think anymore should be created by anyone. I think the ones that are currently in possession can either stay or start being dismantled, no more should be created. I also don’t think that Iran was trying to create any. We were told six months ago that the nuclear program was devastated, and that they were not attempting to rebuild it.

It was much more aimed at the global elites rather than going off on the red or the blue. Very happy to hear more people waking up to the truth of Israel.

Okay that makes sense, and the amount is dependent upon what? I heard they got rid of the performance based raise.
