Are we even sure he actually knew he was doing that? I wonder if he even knows he has cancer.

Poor enough in this context is on the spender not me. If they are doing the ad tier because they feel they can’t afford it otherwise, fine. I have no qualms with them. It’s the hypocrites that rail against the rich for thier money grubbing actions and then turn around and support the ad tier so that they can build wealth themselves that are the problem. You seem to be working harder and harder to make me fit your initial opinion of me rather than letting it go and reform it on new information. If that makes you feel better in your day, glad I could help.

I’m not sure he thinks that far out. Probably doesn’t even realize he is a eugenicist.

It’s probably that applications are down, so they want to take credit for it.

He is also not wrong, just in the wrong post.

We are one screening of a popular movie from the 90s starring Russle Crowe away from opening up gladiator arenas.

Sadly I think the reason why don’t is that “modern” medicine really has no idea how to do it. I mean if we did, we probably still wouldn’t spend on it… but one thing at a time.

The internet tends to reinforce more than teach. Echo chambers tend to do that.

Exactly. That is why humans can’t have nice things. The same skills that made us the dominant species ensures we will ruin everything eventually.

One man’s nightmare is another man’s dream

Let’s be real. Do you really believe it’s the poor paying money for an ad supported tier? I don’t. And if you really do, fine. I’ll give the poor a pass if it will allow us to focus on the real problem. People who could afford to pay the full price, but are always chasing deals. It’s also why amazon day exists. Yeah that day. When they raise the price so they can take 30% off and still be charging more than they were before. And then sell out in an hour. It’s why airlines that don’t charge absurd fees can’t compete. A large block of people always chase the lowest price.

In a sad way she supported her kids dreams more than many parents.

Having a kid really should require a license. But there is no entity on earth that could be trusted to manage the process of issuing those licenses fairly. So, damned if we do, damned if we don’t.

Well, kids learn from thier parents. Unfortunately he was taught to hate. I don’t think he is to blame. But of course he can’t just go free either.

I guess you could spend time to help make it easier for others to block ads, or straight up help them. That could tip the balance into doing more to fight it than to support it. Or just learn to straight up pirate. Then you are 100% on the fighting it side.

By what leap of logic do you come to that conclusion. We are talking about entertainment here. Not housing or food. Doing without is an option, and there is plenty of competition to use instead.
People rail against the rich for caring only about money. But when they make thier own decisions, they do the same. Money first. You pay for ADs with your time first. Then you pay again when ever you buy anything, because advertising whether you saw it or not is part of the price of everything. Paying for your time back alone, would be worth the price. But people put money first. And we all lose. Well except the wealthy.

I will call that a grey area. You still count on the roles as a sub of the ad tier. And probably in all the data it assumes you saw the ads. So it helps perpetuate the problem. But if enough people do it, it will reduce whar advertisers pay, which might reduce the problem.

94 million people decided $10 a month savings was worth watching ads rather than doing without. Fuck em. They are the reason many things only have an ad supported tier. Pay for stuff or pirate it, but don’t use ad supported tiers when you have a choice.

What we really need is the gangs to step in and protect thier territory from ICE. They have networks of people who can hide them if they get identified. And good luck to the agents who come and try to arrest them. The cycle will just build and build.

Plot twist. He has a face like brad pit and was sick of it beingbthe first thing anyone says when they talk to him.
