No, it's not a protected characteristic because being a nazi isn't innate.

After a 20 minute walk to a food place, motivated by hunger and excitement and a personal self-satisfaction in choosing exercise over ordering food, you think about the nice grub you're going to get.

You think about how nice it is that there's a place open, even though every other place closes inexplicably at 5pm on a workday making it impossible for working people to go to due to socioeconomic factors beyond your understanding.

You're not without doubts, but on approach across the empty partially unlit parking lot, you see it. The lights are on, the sign is on, and you think you can make out some activity inside.

You feel a sigh of relief as you approach. "The time on Google maps must've been correct", your think. The lights inside are on, and there's employees walking about, making food, you gently push, the door, feeling the worn metal on the door push plate replacing the handle, and the door swings open.

You barely hear the electronic bell meant to alert the crew inside to your presence, your lungs fill with the smell of freshly made Burrito Tortillas toasted just right and refried beans and Beef and Guacamole.

Then, but in a flash:

— "uuuuh, we're closed!"

You jerk a bit and withhold any mean words, you're better than that, you're trying to be better than that. But you can't leave, so you channel your energy towards inquisition. The art of the mind. Science. You seek resolution.

— "how comes you're listed as open on Google maps?"

You mumble out coming off somewhat frustrated, not at all the inquisitive philosopher you pictured yourself to be. You collect yourself.

—"You're still making stuff, and you're closed?"

Puzzled, the person responds:

— "oh it's UberEats only".

The words seared into your brain forever. The fall of Rome. The end of an era. Destruction of institutions. End of communism. The rapture. The west has fallen, millions must eat. Bread and circus no more, the only clown left is you.

Snake Jazz episode from Rick and Morty comes to mind

Spot on.

Ah. I just use BT so that makes sense

I state my opinions on the internet without adherence to any particular side or filter for pacifying and self-censoring what I genuinely believe or facts that I know with certainty and back it up with reason, logic and evidence.

IRL this seldom annoys anyone unless I'm overly impolite but I try to be polite generally.

Could someone explain what this is for? I have an XSX wireless controller. I use it over BT with my Linux machines and it works out of the box with all games and the desktop. What functionality does this add?

Huh? I don't know where I implied that. You ofc need an understanding but you also need practice.

Nic+Vyvanse+Caffeine. Father+son+holy spirit.

Can't believe I'm seeing this level of rationality on this community.
