Hey, you’re the expert.

I personally couldn’t care less about economics. There are too many things to be right and passionate about for me to start worrying about all that theoretical insanity.

Right. I must’ve missed that because I don’t care about this conversation at all. Labels were never my thing to begin with. But you can call me right-wing if it makes you feel better, as long as I get to keep my trans boyfriend.

I’m so glad you asked.

commonly accepted mechanics

I’m beginning to feel a little gas-lit.

Uh. Okay. If you say so. I wasn’t going to say anything about the No True Scotsman fallacy, but you really did force my hand with that last one. That’s outright silly, and a pretty vile attempt to coerce conformity out of of other progressives who don’t align with your perspective on economics by thinking you can label them “right-wing” for it.

Capitalism ends where left begins.

I’m not sure if you’re gatekeeping or just generalizing.

Oh, I wouldn’t know anything about that.

That doesn’t even make any sense.

Whataboutism is a form of informal fallacy.

A what?

What about people who are just left?

you need to submit your application which includes signatures from two references, your partner, and any former partners from the last three years.

Excuse my sorry Texan ass, but the idea of denying someone gun ownership just because they had a bad breakup or don’t have a social circle is wonk to me.

I also didn’t mention that the RCMP licensing division is backed up like crazy, and the courses are usually booked months in advance. You can count on about six months from the time you decide to get your license to the time you legally own your first gun.

The best part about this is that the licensing and all the other fees probably make it profitable to run, meaning they’re bottle-necking both on purpose and at their own expense.

Update: It was because I triggered bot detection for not pandering in enough comment sections.

I was permanently banned from streaming (had thousands of followers at the time) for animal abuse after asking another streamer if they milk their goats, then I was permanently site banned for harassment after arguing with them about it. Don’t give me an excuse to get started.

The issue is often a result of companies paying off those 3rd party testers to use outdated equipment that can’t detect the counterfeiting methods being used, or so I’ve heard.

Maybe just me personally, but if they’re gonna put “blend” on the bottle I’d be more inclined to assume it’s intended as a selling point rather than a begrudging legal requirement.

Many thanks.

I’d like to take this opportunity to make an honorable mention of Planet Fitness, LegalShield, and BeenVerified for all having functional purchase and subscription systems yet forcing me to cancel my subscription either through writing or by phone. I will never use any of these again.

Walmart is already on my boycott list, alongside Kroger.

I heard about that. I wouldn’t even buy beeswax from Amazon because I heard all the horror stories of even some of the highly rated products being cut with Paraffin, which gives me headaches. I could give you a list.

I’ve heard about Lemmy for a while, and I just joined after getting permanently banned for “threatening violence” after posting “nice sub here” in a new subreddit. I wish I were joking, but it personally doesn’t surprise me that much when considering my past experiences. The appeal was denied.

Reddit’s most dedicated and longstanding users can only tolerate so many nonsensical and frivolous permanent account bans over the years before they flock to that beautiful forest sprouting up across the river. Lemmy should continue to grow because people like me intend to be here for the life of it.

My last few months on Reddit were spent tracking bot accounts, and taking note of suspicious patterns of certain subreddits refusing to take action against blatant propaganda bots. I’m glad to be past that, at least for now, and I wish the users I’m leaving behind luck. Things were nuts.
