I can see why you call it disingenuous but the point of the matter is that children are getting shot. You can break it down into as many catagories as you like, the bottom line is that far too many school aged children are dying violent deaths in a world that has enough knowledge and resources to know what the solutions are to prevent it. The only thing keeping that going at this point is political fuckery.

It would block it all the same if they parked in the spot. Assuming this person is handicapped themselves they must've figured "either I block the entire parking spot for everybody, or I block it only for those that need the loading bay area for a wheelchair lift."

I honestly think it's meant to be courteous and it does work out that way for some if this person's only alternative is to take up the whole space.

They quite literally only stated facts

Except for the preface stating the opinion that people that let their cats roam are shit.

I'm guessing the time and ammo it took to kill her amounts to more dollars lost than she could ever shoplift for. Did the store get their money back? No? Then what the fuck was the point? Who was actually helped that day?

The point of having police is to make society livable. This seems to be the opposite of that.

See, this is the fucking problem right here. You are a commoner. The person you replied to is a commoner. Compared to the ultra rich anybody but that tiny tiny subset of people are commoners. As long as we keep name calling and pointing fingers at each other this shit will never change and we'll be rolling around in the mud until we all fry under the sun.

I understand your frustration, we all feel the same way. Let's direct that frustration at the people and the system that is telling us to turn on each other simply so we are blind to how we're all being played for fools.

I was going to comment something to make some more fun of you, but nothing I can say can do a better job at that than your own words here.

I was trying to point out how an act can be innocent in one context like your example of kissing your brother's newborn on the forehead can be sexual in another context. Like kissing your female subordinate on the lips while holding her head with both hands. I'm baffled that you're consistently missing the point here.

Sure because I changed my baby sister's diaper this one time when she was 3 months old so it's totally okay to pull down my coworkers pants and run a wet wipe down their asscrack in front of everybody. I normally don't like butts, let alone wiping them down but you see she just landed a major contract for our company and I was overcome with joy.

What I don't understand is how the national motto can be a religious one without breaking the first amendment.

One time I went to a bar in Mallorca, asked "dos cervezas, por favor" and the guy went: "Was? Zwei bier??"

It was surreal to realise that nobody there actually spoke any Spanish. Outside of the tourist traps Mallorca still has some authenticity here and there but it's like the locals just hide in the shadows for the most part.

The starting point is a reference to school shootings where the police were too afraid to go into the school to stop the shooter.

Sure but then they'd also need to calculate the risk of Musk or X exposing the lie that X is allowing pro-nazi content. If it's such an obvious lie for the exposure in the media then there's a massive risk of being called out and exposed. The bottom line is X loses revenue and credibility due to this article and now has a huge incentive to blow the lid off this supposed conspiracy to paint X as a bastion of hate. I don't think two big companies would roll the dice on that at the same time as losing their investment by ending this ad campaign early.
