In this case she started the fight. I wouldn't punch someone because I didn't like them. However if they do start punching me, I do have a right to defend myself. While insults aren't the same and I'm not really the type to get that much into it, when people like MTG or Alex Jones do it, I'm not going to have qualms with it being dished back to them. I mention Alex Jones because he does it to a ridiculous degree, and has had MTG on multiple times to spew similarly vile hate.
Well, we don't really care about a natural emotion reaction in yout head. Once you start spreading it around and claiming something about it, then its a problem. If you just spread it as a "look at this weird thing I found, isn't it funny?" That's also fine. However, if you start spreading it like "can you believe this?" without checking into it, then you're either gullible to the point of the internet being dangerous for you, or you're complicit.
I dunno but every time I see it Konya wa Hurricane plays in my head.
I had a coworker catholic who both said that statement, and also argued animals had no souls, so no one should ever get in trouble for animal abuse. Along with his ridiculously heated response to any government involvement in Healthcare, and the way he got close to yelling when discussing these topics while also claiming he was just being logical, not emotional. Why yes he did call women emotional, how did you know?
People like him scare me, because it sounds like if he could use some religious context to say I didn't have a soul, he'd probably come to the same conclusion he did about dogs.
Agree with the other reply, but I will say one of his least terrible things but you may have heard about is he was a major source of Kanye's "I love Hitler" tour. He was with him on almost every appearance, if not every one of them.
Part of the whole panic and cherry picking thing is also an important next step: refusal to do proper research. A simple web search would correctly show you that it's harmless. One might also find sources that claim it's actually satanic, but they'd find those in blogs, social media, or message boards, while legitimate and official sites would show the correct info.
It's up to the person to determine which one is correct. Most logical people would go with the simplest and least sensational definition being the correct one, while those with a conspiratorial mind view would ignore such common sense and choose to panic.
Looks like maybe a "soft top" style roof? Convertibles and some jeep style vehicles have them.
Or maybe another damaged car, not sure.
As doctor whatshisorherface said, the first percentage is just showing participant age group, as both lists add up to 100%.
Some shows even went meta about it. It's an extra rather than the show proper but still.
I pointed it out to someone in the car with me and my face probably had a smile, as I joked about how pictures don't do it service how ugly/odd it looked in person. Then we switched back to whatever topic we were talking about.
Some people like odd shapes, some people make fun of it, some don't care. There are plenty of things I'd never drive but might like to look at, some in appreciation, some in mockery.
My main issues with Teslas are company and owner issues. Issues with cutting corners, his involvement with manipulating governments for Lithium, and the wild way he hires and fires people due to ego (reportedly fired entire Supercharger group because lead wouldn't do anymore layoffs, and is desperately trying to rehire talent).
I can discuss all that stuff with people without a scowl on my face, because I'm laughing at such dumb decisions. I don't have any personal opinions about you really, other that you either don't know that stuff or don't care. I might make judgements if I confirmed you knew all that and still went for it, or if I knew you simped for him, but I couldn't make that call just seeing one out on the street.
A lot of choices are made for us. People who think it's down to only choices probably ignore all the luck and privileges they experienced. I could have been born in much worse circumstances than I was, and that would not have been due to any choice I made. Children dying in war zones made no choices to get there.
Would they have? Tesla, Toyota (prius brake issue), Samsung (battery fires and iirc dryer issues) Ford (exploding pinto iirc) Sacklers (opiates) all have blood/injuries on their hands from mistakes, willful negligence, or outright corruption and they're all going strong.
Edit ah, I might be out of date on Perdue.
She's playing a collective of dumb antagonists, and Jeff may or may not be a collective of progressive thinking/experimenting people who were ignored throughout history despite their efforts.
I don't like em, but not to the level of gross. Pickles are gross for me, olives I can either move to the side or ignore as a mildly worse meal.
Plus plenty of us Americans mock that stuff too. In the state I live in, a man was killed by people loving guns like this because he was black while jogging. At the time, I was living in a city called White, GA. Down the street was a lumberyard that flew Confederate and Trump flags. I'm a person who since I was young loved exploring places in woods etc, but I'm rather terrified to do it in this day and area, especially with my skin color. A lot of us are trapped by circumstances here, so that comment felt more like a
"You complain about America, yet you live there. Curious." type of comment.
You have so much to learn about people who feed into the Satanic panic. Cherry picking is by definition how they get there. One of Alex Jones biggest boggiemen for years was a subsection of a law that allowed medical testing on troops, and he always ignores the very next section that states that it all requires informed consent. Then lies and act like people would have no idea.
During covid he found an exercise that tried to assume 4 different future scenarios that may come into play, and ignored the positive leaning ones or nuetralish ones and went straight for the heavily authoritarian exercise because it used a possible pandemic as a background setting, then claimed it was all planned out and proof Covid was a bioweapon attack.
People like this willfully ignore things that give context, and will often repackage it without the context anytime they can.
And even older: Pinky, are pondering what I'm pondering?
Being a support person, if I was rich enough to frivolously buy systems, I'd have at least one of each as a reference system. Yes, I know, vms, but that's for saving money/space. Especially MAC I'd have some hardware too. Definitely not a main system though. I currently have a broken Mac and a cheap chromebook for that reason, though due to being broken the Mac is rather useless now. When it worked I often used it to help test/troubleshooting customer stuff.
Nice, I've been looking for one of these that worked in Windows (I know, I know, but I don't have time to redo everything if I switched atm).
