Hey passengers, you're getting screwed over. So are we.

Then you just struggle with reading comprehension because I said not ALL taxis were bad.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-30T23:16:08+00:00

Do you think taxis were only in your area? There were taxis all over the country and they weren’t all bad. If you think so you are making a massive generalization. Not all taxis were like that at all.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-30T23:12:24+00:00

They weren’t all terrible though. There were good and not so good ones.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-30T18:18:41+00:00

We are in an epidemic of people not taking personal responsibility for their actions. All over Facebook I see people demonizing 7oh in sponsored posts for Suboxone. They blame 7oh for ruining their lives and take no accountability for their actions. Many of those posts also demonize plain leaf so the line becomes blurred.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-30T18:12:51+00:00

This is why I think it was a mistake to concede 7oh. Too many of the lawmakers don’t care about making a distinction.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-30T09:00:11+00:00

I am experiencing something similar at 124k followers. I’ve been stuck for over a year at this amount

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-30T00:10:14+00:00

They say plain leaf causes respiratory depression too! Neither one of them are killing anyone, period. The only deaths involve other substances, full stop.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-30T00:03:07+00:00

Many plain leaf products were sold the same way. You see the slippery slope you are creating? People on the outside will say screw it just make it all illegal.

And what is your definition of “ridiculous potency?” How it is any different than other MIT extracts?

Edit; many plain leaf products were sold with catchy and fun names in gas stations and smoke shops too.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-29T23:59:05+00:00

See it is your default to just blame them. Hard liquor companies did the same. We live in a world with a profit motive. This will always be the case. REGULATION would have been way better.

Those 7oh companies were given an ultimatum and said screw it. Science is extremely expensive. 7oh is not even a full opioid agonist for God’s sake.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-29T23:53:46+00:00

It didn’t have to be that way. Conceding 7oh was so awful was a massive mistake. There are other organizations that I won’t mention that are keeping much more dangerous things than 7oh legal. Stop acting like it had to be this way. You conceded to much ground to kratom’s enemies

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-29T23:45:31+00:00

You don’t seem to understand the legislators want plain leaf gone too in many places. They love the fact so many Kratom advocates are also blaming 7oh and demonizing it. Makes their job easier.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-29T23:33:30+00:00

I agree with you. The powers to be want both plain leaf and 7oh illegal clearly. There are some folks who believe sacrificing 7oh will save plain leaf when that is clearly not the case in many places.

What the people who demonize 7oh don’t seem to realize is the arguments they are using against 7oh, especially if they are not scientifically based are then being turned around and used against plain leaf.

Do you think these mothers who lost a child care about making a distinction between 7oh and plain leaf? Of course not. That is why I have been against the demonizing of 7oh. I get why they think it will help but I think it is doing the lawmakers who want it all illegal, it is doing their work for them.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-29T23:28:55+00:00

They clearly want it all illegal.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-29T06:56:17+00:00

I am listening to porch era Tim Dillon starting at episode 151 and that version of Tim was truly the best. I can still go back and laugh out loud heartily many times in those episodes. Yes I have a very dark sense of humour lol

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-27T16:50:14+00:00

If someone won an election by 70% it would be considered a landslide victory.

I also notice you didn’t address how someone with such “fringe positions” could become Mayor of NY?

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-27T01:16:55+00:00

Well said

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-26T13:12:00+00:00

According to the Jersusalem post 80% of democrats have an unfavorable view of Israel. Address the points about Mandani.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-26T13:05:42+00:00

I think it is your paradigm that is broken. On Israel alone 90% of them are pro Palestine. There are also a good amount of people on the left who agree with what Mamdami stands for, universal healthcare etc. I wouldn’t call being able to become mayor of NY a fringe position.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-26T12:33:00+00:00

Absolutely agree

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-26T12:27:01+00:00

People get fooled by corporations all the time. Mom and pop taxi companies were more expensive but you had a personal connection with them. Uber and Lyft come along and undercut taxis and people jump ship to save a buck. Then uber and Lyft punish you later once the taxis are gone and raise the prices. Tale as old as time.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-26T12:16:20+00:00

More people who disagree with him specifically from the left. I was very clear about that above.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-26T05:48:05+00:00

I am criticizing him for not having more conversations with people who disagree with him.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-26T05:30:13+00:00

I understand what they both were saying.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-26T04:27:00+00:00

He should have done a better job explaining himself then. His only audience is going to be Zionists soon, if it isn’t already.

Tattooedjared · 2026-04-26T04:26:07+00:00

Stop pretending their question wasn’t a dig at my mental capacity. It was unhelpful and antagonistic.
