Some stuff might be publicly available because FOIA and "Sunshine Laws" (is that a term used outside of Florida?) are mostly about ruining all privacy.

You can google my name (Somewhat unique, at least in America) and see exactly where I used to live and my party affiliation because some boomer takes all the voter registration records and makes them public and google indexed.

(British voice) The Woke Pronoun Virus requires us to no longer say "Her Majesty".

Fitting a surprising amount of information on magnetic tape. Making casually racist content in the mid of "normal" content.

Me and my friend often start our weekly gaming session by checking what funny things are on the front page. Always a "treat".

Target went from "no more self checkout" to "closes at 8pm" to "10 items or less" in like a month. I still avoid them solely because of that (and all the other crap), but when I do go it, the guys don't stop me with ~20 items because I scan real fast.

The only time I've personally seen price controls is during hurricane season. Hopefully, some company will do this shit, the government will actually do something, and then these things are killed forever.

Fuckin' Kroger. Moved to an area where they and other big stores are the only options.

Where I used to live, they had a sub called "Lucky's Market" that was semi-fancy, but had decent deals. They killed it to move in directly, dragged their feet, then covid hit and they pivoted to deliver only. So I was already bitter having to shop there.

My opinion improved a bit when people there said they were unionized. Decent deals (but you gotta use their stupid card).

Then their self checkouts started yelling if you move too quickly or slowly scanning.

Now this shit.

I'm not voting for Hitler, Hitler Jr, or any of his cousins.

You don't have healthcare, you buy into a ponzi scheme disguised as healthcare.

It is crueler to let them destroy ecosystems they did not evolve in.

And no one (who is a leftist) would argue to kill humans outside of Africa, because we can choose not to be invasive butts. We are because of capitalism. These things are because of instinct. There is no way these can reasonably fit into the system they are introduced to, without massive damage to the local system.

Hate when I have a healthy plant (luckily haven't seen many bad bugs), and learn I should kill it. Happening a lot where I moved to right now. Old owners (one of which i think was a cop lol) planted a bunch of stuff, some of which is banned in other states for how bad they are.

Killed a bush and replaced it with a native this season. Was very sad but had to be done.

India had literal billions of dollars of production, goods, labor, services, etc, etc, etc, drained from it by British rule up until their independence. Its no shock that they've had struggles for the past ~70 years.
