Thanks now I'm depressed

I love the article, it involves the highest to the lowest levels and touches on religious hypocrisy, corruption, ass kissing. Basically every defining aspect of the republican way of life plays a role in such a tiny little story.

I mean that's also one of the tickboxes

 

Am I going crazy or has the reddit community got brain damaged. I mean nothing against you if you enjoy this kind of content but top page with 36k upvotes?

This is worse than third party apps dying, this is the actual content turning into Facebook level crap. I'd rather have the_donald at this point, at least it made me chuckle now and then. I'd rather scroll through TikTok if I wanted to see this kind of stuff. Feels like everyone there got lobotomized, and I don't buy that these are all bots upvoting and commenting.

I don't think he's talking about air resistance but about density, which is pretty close to the notion of weight and also affect fall speed. He probably came to this conclusion by looking at how things fall (or not) through water.

So are they just going to tighten them up real well and call it a day? Also are these the same planes they were urging the FAA to let them flight without further inspection?

No wait if whatever I do child murders stay the same then it's not my fault, I'm only responsible for stuff that I have control over, by definition. I'm worried about how much influence I personally have over how many innocent Palestinian kids are murdered.

just to be clear is Biden the kill a little option or the kill a lot one?

Which is kind of true right? I mean aren't German citizens a bit to blame for the holocaust? And in my hypothetical case we'd be even worse since we'd be actively voting to keep the holocaust alive not just being passive observers.

Hey there I'm new here just wanted to share this here in case you haven't heard it before

Question, if I vote for Biden and he wins and keeps supporting genocide, does that make me partly responsible for these kids dying? Don't love the prospect of having dead inocent children's blood on my hands.

These points seem pretty reasonable, wonder what's wrong with them since you mentioned you're not actually a libertarian?

You also mentioned businesses that tend to become monopolies, and more generally, there seem to be types of business that don't really play well in a free market. One non-monopoly example could be antibiotics, since we're all worse off the more they're consumed. Another example is natural resources exploitation: competition won't stop these resources from running out. I know close to nothing about economics but shouldn't it be pretty straightforward to figure out which businesses or which business aspects are the ones that benefit from free market? It seems mostly a technical question.
