The cope is real. They all know they are destroying lives by promoting gambling to young people and eventually some of them are going to overspend and get addicted. But yeah, it's just like an ad for a burger
- jjcob 4mo agoThe burger ad is also getting people addicted and destroying lives. But with burgers most people blame the victims. In my opinion it's all the same. Gambling, junk food, drugs, guns... Lots of money to be made, lots of lives destroyed.

- expedition32 4mo agoIt is time to admit that the Chinese were right when they built their great firewall. You either protect yourself from America or your civilization is lost to the void.
- TFNA 4mo agoOnline betting was huge in several other developed countries first. America got late to a trend. If anything, a Great Firewall in the USA would have protected it from the trend.
- boelboel 4mo agoAmerica banned international countries from winning the betting market to protect Vegas and casinos in general. Some sort of protectionism they said the war on Terror was the reason to ban it if I remember correctly(just after 9/11).
- karel-3d 4mo agoDoes China have online gambling banned? I don't know
- asdff 4mo agoGambling is extremely popular in china despite the firewall and laws around it.
- aucisson_masque 4mo agoAmerica was much better on betting a few years ago, it's been very recent. I would have thought that trump giving so much to christians, he would be against betting but there are things that are beyond my understanding.
