Yeah but letting old people drive is like letting blind people drive. Sometimes literally.
Exactly. That’s like saying firing a gun into crowded theater and killing people is “involuntary manslaughter.”

Russian disinformation bots do express opinions I guess, so you have a point.

Now I know you’re a Russian shill. What an insane claim.

In the US, maybe. But that’s considered a flawed democracy and getting worse all the time. Only 8% of the nations on earth are full democracies, a number that continues to fall because of the pessimism and stupidity promulgated by authoritarian regimes.
Anarchy is the rejection of unjust hierarchies, not all hierarchies. Certainly a parent would have authority over a small child insofar as that’s reasonably justified. Similarly, some expert may be elected to a position where they’re democratically authorized to make specific decisions so we don’t have to vote a thousand times a day about specialized matters.
On the whole, anarchism just means a lot more democracy.
Since when is piracy bad?
There shouldn’t be “relatively affordable housing on Florida’s coastline.” That ship has sailed. The state is going to flood and get battered by hurricanes until it’s completely subsumed by the ocean. They’ve had half a century to get their shit together and reverse global warming. Florida should no longer qualify for any other federal aid. Surrender that shit to Poseidon.
Pffft. Next up, FDA declines to approve aspirin for headaches. Give me a break. The whole rent-seeking bureaucracy around American medicine is ridiculous.
It is comedy gold to me that people in this thread think self-defense is somehow a “right wing” issue, like they forgot all of human history. A bunch of ignoramuses who never lived with measles refusing to vaccinate their children.
Pure brain rot.
This guy must be trolling.
“Neutral” to what, precisely? Ireland is one of only 8% of countries on this planet that are still considered full democracies, a number that’s rapidly dwindling as the authoritarians gain political ground. And you think Ireland should be “neutral” to the piecemeal extirpation of democratic civilization because, what, Russia and China and the fascists in the US and Europe will just leave Ireland alone?? That we shouldn’t have active deterrents? Nobody is asking Ireland to go to war. They’re asked to be able to defend themselves.
These are billionaire CEOs, not artists. There’s nothing particularly mysterious about their work, which you can learn all about from the many, many self-fellating autobiographies their ghost writers churn out every year.
Exactly. There’s plenty of salad available, but that’s not what I choose. What is this fantasy that it’s expensive to eat healthy? Legumes are literally 1/1000th the cost of beef per calorie. Yet people choose meat, because it’s delicious. Then they die of chronic illness. Instead of making fun of ourselves for being totally predictable dumb apes, we write these ridiculous articles.
Religion is a monstrous evil.
