“It’s too expensive to care for female driver regulations, so we’ll put a disclaimer that our vehicle is only designed for men and be absolved of all legal requirements”

Merteur? Martyr?

Actually yeah, I see your point and that’s something I’ve done before. Just something like

Edit: Got this one wrong

This is actually good debate etiquette in my opinion. I have no issue going and having the conversation however it happens, but as soon as you take my argument apart I’m gonna leave it as is so that others can see the learning opportunity that I had

You’re not wrong that it’s fairly unlikely that Luigi isn’t the adjuster. However, the security stills are the only tangible evidence we have right now and that’s not enough to create the condition of “without a shadow of doubt” which is necessary to convict afaik. This is why the jury needs to be unanimous to my understanding

Furthermore, it’s why we need to stop talking about him.like he’s already been decided to be guilty

A few years ago, Disney seceded from the union. I’m not entirely certain what rights they actually have in their current state but technically the land under Disneyland is not part of America as far as I understand

Look into “Company towns” a bit. It could be done right, but putting that into the hands of the current oligarchs would be a spell for destruction

But I like your sentiment. I actually am planning to start a non-profit apartment complex and I’m trying to get my employer to be a primary investor. I plan on offering them a temporary exclusivity deal if they’ll let me build close enough to where we work but I’ll have to look into the laws about that. Exclusivity deals are a lil weird around housing, might not actually be able to offer that

I agree, but in the right circumstances. Posting it here in the comment section is one thing, we’re discussing their actions. But some people (not you, necessarily) will take it a step further and go bully a company when they take a good step because the step wasn’t big/good enough. We gotta positively reinforce good behavior

Imagine if tomorrow they decided to stop DEI for good

I wonder if they could point towards their secession when handling that. Technically Disneyland and world aren’t part of America, but they’re not recognized as sovereign states by any country so they might have a hard time really putting that fight up

I haven’t verified but someone said Target above in the thread

This is a great fuckin question and one that’s probably more important than we realize

I just wanted to say that your debate etiquette is exceptional, first of all. Secondly, I agree on many points. Musk has been a right wing nut job for years. He publicly became a Nazi last year/earlier this year depending on local awareness levels

That’s not true! Their battery suppliers play a big role in ensuring there’s just enough contamination to get through inspect and still catch fire!

Yes actually you’re right. I said individual because I meant “the little man” but “the little man” is more accurately described as the collective working class than any particular individual. None of us are individually the little man. We are all strong and capable of great things, so long as we work together as a collective. The little man is the idea of those who need to be protected, and we all need to be protected. Thank you for the correction

While you’re definitely right that this is more of a decent human being thing, I’m actually a really big fan of the “good American” narrative.

So many of our fascist peers believe they are being good Americans. Let’s distort their view back towards the individual collective workforce instead of the oligarchy

Isn’t that just competition?

No no no, we only call it competition when it benefits the in-group

The same way anything can be considered a weapon. They “harmed” other economies by undercutting them.

I don’t necessarily agree that that behavior is harmful, but that is the reasoning behind calling it a weapon

“The following email has had all pronouns removed in compliance with blah blah blah. Readability has unfortunately, but obviously, been significantly reduced. Apologies will be made available at a later date.”

Not to mention the countless young adults and teenagers that still think of Canada as a saving grace, nearly utopia-esque place. Their healthcare, prison and education systems have profound impacts on the minds of young people. Or at least they did a few years ago when I was in school.

In any case, you’ve got a lot of people in America that would much rather fight for Canada

Squid, as a highly stressed out Kay who also needs to speak out against oppression and violence, I implore you, seriously, please keep up the good fight.
