Welcome to the Monkey House.

The picture is depicting Special K, not Corn Flakes. Some "adult" cereals like Special K and Total (do they still make Total?) actually have 100% or more of certain vitamins and minerals, so it's a totally viable option as a "meal replacement". I don't know Gary Pilnick from Adam, but it wouldn't surprise me that some rich dickhead said something that comes off as completely tone deaf.

I watched some video on YouTube where they tried to tackle the question "what one thing could you eat day-in and day-out and survive the longest on without suffering some kind of malnutrition." I think they ended up on Subway's Veggie Delight or the Cold Cut Combo with all the fixings, so that you're getting at least some of your USRDA of vitamins.

Well I didn't until now.

Police have the highest rate of domestic abuse as a demographic. Of course they don't give a shit.

The first season stuck mostly to the first book. The second season was based on about 1/3 of the third book and 2/3 of stuff they pulled out of their ass, which is probably why it seems so disjointed. They hardly touched the second book, which focused on how corporate captured governments start wars to maintain the military industrial complex.

There were two seasons, but there were three books.

"Impressive. Most impressive."

Fuck Reddit, 'cuz I'm over here now. (in the best Diceman voice I can muster)

What "single point" am I parroting? I thought I made several points that you just fucking ignored.

1. Dems and repubs are both owned by the oligarchs.
2. Dems pretend to be innefectual on purpose, because they are paid and or threatened.
3. Dems voted to support the war in Ukraine which we goaded them into. 4.Dems vote with repubs to give money to Israel that they, in turn, are using to commit genocide.
4. Dems vote with repubs to spend boatloads of money on our military, that would be better spent here at home.
5. The US military is the biggest single entity causing the most pollution globally.

You haven't replied to any of those things, again accusing me of what you're guilty of. Your "points"? Blue fascist good, red fascist bad. Yeah, OK. So dems try to sound more sympathetic while letting big pharma and the military-industrial complex fuck the world over. The outcome is going to be the same either way.

Another thing. If that were going to happen, why hasn't he pardoned Julian Assange yet, hmm? Assange embarassed the elites and exposed their bullshit. Trump was his fan for a minute until his bullshit got exposed too. Turns out that Hillary has more ties with Russia than Trump. It's the Machiavellian strategy: accuse your opponent of the thing you're guilty of.

I also came up in an abusive household, so here's somerhing to think about: who's worse, the abuser who only knows abuse because they were abused, or the one who allows it to happen even though they know it's wrong? That's what we have now. The reps suck, no doubt, but the dems sit back and twiddle their thumbs and allow the corporations to fuck us all over while pretending to give a shit. They don't give a shit because they've sold us out for a little bigger piece of pie.

Whenever dems start losing an argument these days, they're quick to call it "right-wing rhetoric". I take this as an ad-hominem attack since I've been a lefty all my life. I voted for Bill Clinton. I voted for Barack Obama in 2008. I would have voted for Bernie Sanders in 2016, but the lying, cheating fucks in the DNC stole the nomination, and we ended up with a clown-ass gameshow host as president.

Hey, guess what single entity in the world is the biggest polluter. The US fucking military. The same military that dems and reps overwhelmingly vote to give mountains of cash to every fucking year.

You say I'M arguing in bad faith? The other (literally Machiavellian) tactic that shit-libs like to use is to accuse the opposition of the thing they themselves are guilty of. I like how you glossed right over the whole funding the military aspect of my argument, as if murdering people for their resources is just business as usual. Obviously you're not affected by it so why should you care?

When you say:

"One party is at least trying to push laws through that help"

You're getting closer to my point.You admit how ineffectual they are. The dems pretend to help while lettting themselves get steamrolled by the repubs. This is not accidental. How do I know this? Look at the shit that really matters to the war machine, that shit always passes: money for the war in Ukraine (that we instigated), money for Israel (who just happen to be committing genocide right now), money for the military budget (last year they gave them 50 billion extra that they didn't even have to ask for). That's 886 BILLION dollars to spread "democracy" to countries around the world. That's more than the next 10 countries spent on their military combined.

Either you've lived life under a rock to not notice the shit going on around you, or you're a shill for the dems. Pull your head out of your rectum and look around. People are hurting, and if you're not, good for you, you're lucky. How long do you think your luck will hold out?

There's a government spy project called Palantir. Kind of on the nose to LOTR nerds like me. For those who don't know, the palantirs were the crystal balls in LOTR that wizards could use to communicate or remote view what other palantirs could see.

Every president since and including Nixon has been a fucking war criminal. And the Hague can't do shit, because if they tried we can attack them! I was surprised when I found out.

I know that sounds dismissive, but if you have no healthcare and can't afford a place to live, and your right to dissent is eroded every day, then all of the other differences won't matter when we're dead.

I'm on my 2nd reading of Bullshit Jobs by Graeber, I'll have to pick up Debt; I hear a lot of good things about it.

You almost got it. The Totally Fucked class is there to remind the Not Rich class that it could be worse, and that if they rock the boat, they can easily be relegated to the Totally Fucked class if they miss a paycheck or two.

It will never happen. Biden is owned by the same people as Trump. There's only one party, the party of the Oligarchs. All of the petty shit about abortion, trans rights, gay rights, racial equality, gender equality, religion, second amendment, etcetera are all distractions to keep us all at each others throats while the rich cocksuckers figure out more insidious ways to fuck us all over.

Sure they have lockput/tagout. You sit through an hour long video, then sign a sheet where you promise to obey the safety rules. Then when you actually try to do things by the book, your supervisor asks you "what the fuck are you doing?" and says "we don't have time for that". One place I worked had a peg board with everyone's lock and key for lockout/tagout; all of the locks had about a 1/4 inch (@ 6 mm to our European friends) of dust on them from lack of use.
