I believe in balancing quotas and rebuilding social structures to be more inclusive. That’s something that takes several generations to bear fruit.

Shaming or bullying anyone for what kind of body or privilege they were born into is where I draw the line.

edit: those who downvoted this are most welcome to reply this comment and explain their point. I’m open to discuss

This sounds like a pretty good description of the situation.

I would add the seeming lack of true alternatives, as dems have repeatedly dropped the ball in the last few decades.

I understand what you mean, and agree that not everything needs to be put in words. At the same time though, it’s really healthy to expose yourself to others even if you just write “I like the way you formulated this.” or “Makes sense, I hadn’t thought of it like this before”. That way it turns into a real discussion - a bit like in the real 3d world.

Up/ downvoting is basically anonymous and adds nothing to the discussion.

And, sometimes, other users misunderstand our comments, and then we need to respond to them to get our point through. All of this is a healthy way to challenge our thinking.

Apology accepted! Let’s just both agree to pick up some litter the next time we go to the beach.

Unfortunately my hometown still allows indoors smoking etc so we’re still pretty far from a ban. But it will come I’m sure.

Wow that was a lot of vitriol in one post. Hope you’re doing ok.

Over here these disposable vapes are unfortunately not banned (which I would prefer too) so taxation would be a step in the right direction. We do have litter here too though, as has been the case with mankind since day one of civilization.

These things should be taxed heavily

I appreciate you putting it into words instead of just upvoting

Up/Downvoting is so 2015. Instead, comment on any interesting posts, and especially the ones with zero comments. This platform is meant to be about discussion, and not just mindlessly sharing links or memes.
I, personally, am more inclined to check out a post if it has at least one (non-bot, non OP) comment.

Frankly, the way the topic sentence was formulated is mildly infuriating…

I had the same experience with that movie! By the way, please try not to kill spiders…
