Strawman... The alternative to purely profit driven society is not a communist society. It's social democratic where values of freedom rights and wellfare actually matters and are not just axes to grind on. The US internal anti sociali

Wonderful, a couple of billionaires not only would have most money they'll also be the ones minting it while being the gatekeepers of personhood. Not dystopic at all.

I've seen a lot of these MCU movies. I tried, but for me they are mostly fluff I forget the second I get out of the cinema. Pure low brow spectacles apart from maybe a couple. Am I closed minded oh great judge of taste and personality?

Oh, so now eugenics is hip again? Ofcourse genetics influence stuff, but so what? Does being less good at something means you are less human or less worthy? Does belonging to a population with certain traits an individual have those traits?

OP seem to pay this premium indirectly anyway. So I guess people would pay that premium. Like they pay premium for mac's anyway. The regulation for warranty just means sellers need to actually provide the quality the brand induces

I didn't know addiction is a competitive sport. Why is talking about one kind of addiction is diminishing to another kind?

by mola 5y ago
Do you consciously want to stop talking with your friends but find you can't? If not, then you are not compelled. Your argument is a strawman argument. Calling something addictive, does not equate to saying that if you stop doing it,

Ofcourse it's real, for me at least. I define addiction as an activity I would like to stop doing, but I find it extremely hard to do for intrinsic reasons. I find my self reaching in my pocket to my smartphone uncounciously and open F

You mean they believed the fake crap US media brainwashed them to believe on how life works, while turning them to irrational actors which are easy to take advantage of. I can understand their rage, even if it seems silly, they've been
