Oh, vigilantism against targets that weren’t even “verified” until recently.

However wrong I think your idea is; shooting up anything other than kids would be great.

Land of the free, not the land of free entry.

From what height am I allowed to drop off my child?

Brings up an interesting idea of how to preserve watermarks on images.

Why forward instructions to an artist and wait when you can forward it to AI and get it instantly.

It would be very easy to make… But not as easy as describing what you need to AI and clicking a button.

I consistently ask LLMs things that I could Google; it’s just massively convenient.

I felt like a 90 year old grandma reading this.

I would bet you have to choose the date range and cause of death, and “murdered” is never one of those choices.

You don’t seem to understand that both of those things are essentially the same.

No, they’re not… one is law about how you make your product, the other is law about not harming your competitors. While they may share a name, “regulation”, it’s night and day difference. You seem to be looking at a chocolate cake and a cinnamon roll and then are saying “They’re both deserts, they’re essentially the same thing”.

Do you not see the very obvious mechanism that regulations have in making sure competition is sustainable by keeping market costs fair and safe above exploitative practices?

It sounds like you’re trying to describe price floors or something, but doing it in a confusing way that attempts to lead to some kind of gotcha? But I’ve already said I’m okay with regulation against anti-competitive practices, so I don’t really know where you’re going.

Are you seriously comparing low income housing to white trash bigots?

No Mr. strawman, I’m comparing trailer parks to low income housing … And don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot of great people who grew up in trailer parks and there’s a lot of great people who grew up in low income inner city areas; but it goes both ways. There isn’t a problem that one political party has that the other party doesn’t have an analagous problem. And that’s not whataboutism, it’s a consistency check.

They simply described that, as a child, they were aware something was deeply wrong.

Yes. And that’s fine. What I took issue with was the implication that the thing that was “deeply wrong” was due to the fact that the family was conservative and not some other deeply rooted issue. For all we know the family being republicans contributed the OPs issues as much as John Wayne Gacy being a democrat contributed to him being a serial killer.

This post was created to piggypack on this platforms popular idea that “conservative bad”, and all I’m doing is calling it out.

Ya think librals don’t have a carbon copy version of what you’re discussing? Replace a trailor park with a low income housing project and boom, you’re the pot calling the kettle black.

This isn’t a statement made by a sad person, this is just a fact.

Why are you so willing to take the word of OP as a fact? You don’t believe a single word is even slightly misleading, or chosen specifically to bend the truth and garnish support? OP described his entire life in 15 seconds in one paragraph and you’re like “Yea that true”.

Thank you for you anecdotal experience. It provides much… Much… More support for OPs… anecdotal experience.

Here’s to hoping that no conservatives post their anecdotal experience that’s exactly opposite of what y’all are reporting because then, who knows what you’ll believe, rite?

Leave it to you guys to take circumstantial evidence and turn it into dozens of felonies.

In a free market competition drives the creation of better and more profitable products.

Yeah… And then through competition they’re all driven down to a price that’s near production

It’s only without regulations can the formation of monopolies and oligopolies even happen

You don’t seem to understand the difference between laws that prevent the creation of anti-competitive practice and regulation that increases the cost of product and decreases competitiveness.

The first is good. The other two are what’s resulting in your “late stage capitalism”.

No, I thought it was a funny statement by a sad person.

I’m going to write a short, vague, anecdotal post summarizing my entire childhood and absolutely rake in the upvotes by inserting a charged key word so that everyone on a left leaning platform will agree with me.

Shower thought - If we all commit suicide; we can end suicide forever. /s, I’m just kidding. Poor taste?

The entire concept of capitalism rests on selling something for more than it’s worth

To an extent yes, but mostly no.

In a free market prices are naturally driven down to the cost of production, to where you’re barely able to keep the doors open. The only way capitalism reaches the state that you’re describing is with government regulation and overreach.

conservatives without consequences

What’s that about? Trump literally just had his only playing card (Tariffs) ripped away by the supreme court and for some reason people are still afraid of unchecked power?..

Get a hell of a gun safe; something impossible for an adult to pickup.

Something with a digital pin for entry, you can access that practically as quickly as out of a drawer.

But… I think talking to your children is more important, what they’re afraid of is actaully less realistic that someone randomly kicking your door in at night; and for most of the country ICE is a non-issue.

Same, ain’t no idea in this world beyond humor.
