Have you tried watching Rick and Morty yet?

And they use their diplomatic immunity to deal meth and spread counterfeit money to get some cash for their war machine.

They’re good for the environment.

I’m for approaching drug problems with harm reduction and I think that with opiates handing them out for free under controlled circumstances and with access to therapeutic help a lot of the problems caused by them will be negated or vastly reduced but with stims I’m a little more sceptical.
Safe use is always good but I’m not sure that general access to them will bring more good than bad in this world.

Since most of us can’t afford retirement this should make a comeback.
Or we push billionaires down a cliff and use that money to take care of the elderly.

Maybe I don’t have to stop drinking after all…

We sure are but I’m not throwing a hissy fit at the thought of being outside.

You sound like such a baby.

I can’t even see downvotes as I’m on kbin. I think I see the difference between up- and downvotes which should be at +9 at the moment.

Tankies are basically communists that are mainly anti west to the point that they support autocratic countries like china and north Korea.

Your argumentation is similar to that of tankies. The US undeniably did shady shit to maintain hegemony over the last century and the whole past 911 thing was an unreasonable fiasco that cost the lives of over a million people.
It’s just that autocracy is no alternative in any form and it’s the biggest enemy of a free world.

The things that should be done to these executives would probably get me banned from Lemmy if I said.

Funny you say that. I was banned from Reddit for suggesting that suicidal people should take oil-ceos with them instead of wasting their death. Of course I learned my lesson and won’t do that again.

I was inspired by american lawmaking.

And it’s not only america that is discussing restrictions on unhealthy food.

Btw, around 100k Americans die of diabetes. While smoking (which is restricted in various ways) kills 500k Americans this is the combined number of smoke related deaths diabetes is one of many food related health conditions.

I’m too lazy to format my links right now but as you see there are references that similar measures are taken in the US and internationally.

Btw, I never claimed you have to stop shoving whatever disgusting crap you consider edible into your food hole. You’re free to do whatever you want. I just suggested that you’d have to buy multiple portions instead of one so you might have the opportunity to reflect your gluttonous abuse of your own body as I do think producers are marketing their products in an unethical way.

Old is correct.

We weren’t poor I just annoyed my poor mom to get me cereals because of the toys.

It can stay but I’d like to restrict the packaging size of highly processed food and food that’s otherwise extremely unhealthy.
For example breakfast cereal. Wtf? How does that even exist? Why was I allowed to eat a fucking bowl of that in the morning as a child?

That doesn’t make the african farmer believe in climate change.

I don’t like seeing profile pics. It takes away some of the anomity and makes me judge a comment before I read it.

Half the people in industrial countries barely grasp the seriousness of the situation so what do you expect from a farmer in Africa who thinks witchcraft is real?
