  • You acting to defend vitamin claims actually proves my point.

    The word "essential" is chosen to lead you subconscious through the path of if we know that humans need vitamins to survive, and this snake oil has vitamins, then humans must need this exact product to survive.

    This is meant to implant a suggestion and not stand up to scientific scrutiny.

    When product marketing calls out stuff like "essential vitamins" it is technically true, but it is generally a horrible and/or unnecessary source compared to just eating normal foods.

  • Marketing psychology.

    Not really about whatever they are saying, it's a way to drop the subliminal suggestion that there's something "good for you" in there or that it has something competitors don't. They often include the word "essential" when talking about vitamins to add the suggestion that you somehow have to have this thing.

    Just like saying "all natural". Dog shit and cyanide are all natural, but despite logic, most the people at some level absorb the suggestion that the product is somehow wholesome or healthy.

  • Don't you know that all of the real problems facing the country are caused by democrats, illegal aliens, rainbows, drag queens, abortion, books, and wokeness. Attacking the windmills to slay these bogeyman is how you fix everything. /s

  • We tried the wait and see approach with European countries invading their neighbors twice in the last century and both times it ended up being 1000x more costly and got lots of our people killed.

    I don't want to be financing Ukraine anymore than the GOP does, but it's still better than dealing with a much bigger problem later.

  • C130s were designed to operate from relatively short unimproved runways. If the place has enough runway to operate corporate jets, it should have enough for a C130.

    EDIT: This place only has enough runway (2998 x 50 ft ) for small Cessna size aircraft, so no jets or C130s.

  • One of the oldest most experienced groups at litigation against hate and defamation will have a field day with this. I would not be surprised to see X owing the ADL damages if Musk actually follows through.

    This is as nearsighted as DeSantis starting legal battle with Disney.

  • Even if they got her in a deposition, it's not a free pass to compel her to answer anything that they want to ask. Questions have to be relevant to the case at hand. Demanding answers about Jan6 would seem out of bounds for a defamation case.

  • This all seems stupid.

    If you have a party big and crazy enough to justify airborne surveillance, the police will be able to figure it out just by showing up at your door. No drones are needed.

    That being said, NYC has been flying helicopters for decades, so really nothing new privacy wise other than the size of the aircraft and the fact that "drone" invokes fears that drive clicks.
