Usually this bot is great but this is a pretty big one to miss:
And the same week NASA’s report came out, Mexican lawmakers were shown by journalist Jaime Maussan two tiny, 1,000-year-old bodies that he claimed were the remains of “non-human” beings. Scientists have called this claim fraudulent and say the mummies may have been looted from gravesites in Peru.
So then it wasn't shallow and dismissive at all, you just didn't appreciate the delivery. The points they made were perfectly valid and, ironically, calling them shallow and dismissing was itself shallow and dismissive. It just seems more like you used a bad analogy but can't take the criticism.
Addressing any of the points being made to you would be a great start. The first comment that you called shallow was a pretty good summary of why people support strict gun control, even if it was said sarcastically.
That's not a great analogy though... you would have to add that, even though most people use it responsibly, banning digital encryption would cause a very dramatic reduction in harm caused by the people that don't use it responsibly.
Furthermore digital encryption actually serves an inherent purpose so banning it would also cause some harm to society simultaneously. On the other hand, civilian gun ownership serves no inherent purpose so society wouldn't be harmed by banning it, and we would only lose the risk.
Healthcare is provincially regulated here, but coverage in other countries is usually only at the rate that they would cover up here. Because of the huge discrepancies in pricing, most provinces recommend you buy travel insurance when going anywhere else.
And let's not pretend that prisons don't regularly disregard inmates dietary restrictions, even the medically necessary ones. It's easy to laugh at this one because 'haha vegan' but it's still atrocious to ignore any dietary restriction, let alone such a common one.
They said that while you might be able to make it for sports, you certainly can't make it for chess. That doesn't mean they personally think there's a case for sports too.
As a French speaker I had never heard of this, but I looked it up and it's indeed the case specifically for circumflex accents (ê, ô, â, î) and not the others.
A neat resource (in French naturally) that I found on this:
If they're gonna be forced to be part of the UK, they can also enjoy the privilege of shitting on it like the rest do.
