> Why meta is not fully banned in the EU is beyond me :) It’s pretty simple - the EU is unable to produce alternatives. This is because they don’t have the software talent for it. Any talent they do have immediately runs for the SF Bay A

> Skydiving isn't addictive Skydiving is absolutely addictive. Adrenaline chasing is addictive behavior > the risk falls on the participant Same with gambling > a skydiving company doesn't make more money from the custome

That's fine that my brain chemistry is different from that of other people, but I don't see why that should prevent me from using gambling apps.

Should we ban advertisement for skydiving and other such high risk behavior?

by tt24 10d ago
I don’t see why advertisement for gambling is any more offensive than advertisement for any other form of entertainment

Why would we do that? I’m perfectly capable of using a gambling app responsibly.

Let me guess - because some people are unable to consume this form of entertainment responsibly, we have to make it illegal for everyone? Makes sense. While we’re at it let’s kick the war on drugs back into high gear, reinstate prohibition,

I think human therapy is a good thing despite the fact that it has caused suicides.

Why would they need the consent of either?

Thought terminating cliche.

Is your claim that human therapists have caused zero suicides? I hope not for your sake - that would be a really hard one to defend

So in your example a microwave company should be held liable if someone puts a child in a microwave?

Fascinating perspective - any technology that has caused >0 deaths is a dead end and has no chance of improvement.

Clearly it’s not everyone else. You can see multiple replies to my comment expressing the same frustration that I am.

Why don’t we pay people to dig ditches with spoons? It would produce jobs!

Weird right? People’s brains seem to just turn off when this topic comes up. I’m used to it and even find it enjoyable at this point

Then it should be pretty easy to explain right? I’ve seen the same reply to my comment multiple times. Each time it has nothing to do with what I said. I made no claim regarding businesses surviving or not surviving. Why do people keep repl

> Can I assume that you're referring to the executives? Of course not, why would I be? I don't mind if a company decides to pay their employees a lot. In fact, I'd prefer companies pay their employees a lot!

> management staff who produce nothing of value Interesting, first I'm hearing of this idea. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - do you have evidence to support this?
