I’m not sure who you mean is shilling for corporations, but that’s certainly not the vibe I got from most of this thread.
It would be nice to see corporate profits wiped, especially after so much price gouging we’ve had to endure.
But why do you think that gouging will stop?
Let’s imagine that it does hurt corporate profits first. Will they survive? Probably the big ones, might be a bit harder for little ones. So the world keeps turning, right? But like you said the end customer will eat some of the costs, so we agree that prices will go up in the end.
Where’s the upside? More money funneled into the government? Paid by the increased prices for the consumer, or some dips in corporate profits?
I’m not sure that’s a win for the consumer normies.
I’m unfamiliar with the mineral rights treaty specifics, but I remember it being said that it was a pretty shite deal for Ukraine anyway, and that it likely wouldn’t have been signed anyway
I only went back to read the comment because you told me you upvoted it. I wanted to make sure it was worthy.
!it was!<
What’s amusing is your comment is the first time spoilers has worked for me.
You just casually dropping in that 832 is divisible by 8 makes me feel as if there’s a small gap in our abilities to do mental math
I think one of the most common talking points against lab grown is that they are too perfect. “It’s the imperfections that are beautiful” or something like that.
Curious as to why that would be the case. Unless people are starting videos, letting them buffer, then reloading and doing it again.
It should be the same amount of bandwidth, otherwise, right?
In the same way that watching porn on public transit is a social no-no
I think you’re taking it the wrong way. I understand it as “anything negative about Biden, is also true about Trump”
Agreed. For the other side of the Atlantic, it is ground or 1st floor, 2nd floor.
I don’t love to defend advertising/marketing, but your statement implies that once something has been advertised, organic interest/enjoyment becomes impossible.
Sure, there might’ve been a big ad push that rocketed mayo to the top of people’s condiment lists. But there are dozens of other things that could also create interest (new foods that pair well with it, new recipes that are shared culturally, loss of a competing product, diet changes)
