He is completely wrong. Couldn’t be more wrong. But preventing a rabies outbreak?! Tyranny!!! Oppression!!! Fascism!!!

What the hell, man…

Most of the time, the fare thru collect is nowhere near enough to pay for the service they offer. However, partially because is capitalism, they can’t give the service to for free because, well, reasons.

The fare is useful to track how many ride different lines at different times of day stuff like that. Plus, it gives a way to count how many people use the service for the purpose of getting grants and whatnot - which is what actually funds the bus service.

So, if the driver is in a hurry for any reason, he’ll often give you a free ride…cause actually paying the fare is, well, kinda for appearances, really…

That’s…not how chemistry works.

I’m not gonna teach my daughters who they are or are not supposed to trust. Because I will never teach my children what they should think, but rather how to think for themselves. I will encourage them to only trust individuals that prove themselves trustworthy, but again, that’s not my decision to make.

They’re not extensions of me; they are distinct, individual human beings. So I certainly hope you will not teach her to be distrustful; that leads to misery and pain, all in the pursuit of something that doesn’t belong to you and never will (her mind is her own, whether you like it or not).

I personally would only use the original phrase to imply what you’re saying. This is why context matters so much I think; some people just use it as a thought terminating cliche, I’m afraid.

First one is saying there’s no point fixing anything, just get over it. Second one saying fixing it might suck, let’s fix it anyway.

Very, very different…

Dude, go read the page you linked. Seriously. The “no, you” argument being used to defend Zionism has nothing to do with the page you linked to. Sorry, but, it just doesn’t…

Like, for real, you’ve clearly misremembered your debate terminology. Cause you ain’t making any sense here.

Huh, didn’t realize that. I understand a lot of the physical servers for those kinda companies are in the upper Midwest, but I never thought about where thire HQ is at; you make some excellent points.

There is definitely a fight brewing over who has final say in regards to what happens on the Internet. Gonna be interesting seeing how this plays out.

The difference is, I think, just how much of the content or there is hosted in America. If they succeed in forcing local companies to follow some new draconian measure, it’ll likely have a disproportionately high effect on non-US traffic.

Well, they’re the ones that know which pizza shops have pedophile sex dungeons hidden underneath. So, I guess they’re fighting themselves. (As I typed that out, it occurred to me how true is a statement it was…😝)

Your couldn’t throw us a bone by including a link? 😉

That’s okay, I got you covered.

And that’s actually not relevant, but thanks.

What, wait, no; yes, it’s falling apart. Why would you want to prevent that? I don’t want it fixed; I just wanna help others survive while it crumbles to dust around us.

If you don’t let this society die, how will we build the new one??
