Except, airwaves are pretty much dead as a delivery format. And the writing was clearly on the wall back then (its one of the reasons they got rid of analog broadcasting years before that). It's through cable, and internet/cell, which is privately owned and invalidated the complete reasoning behind his argument.

Reply to When everyone is woke, the ones who are actually woke are the ones who aren't woke. by raydditor
Woke is just a word bigots use to avoid the obvious truth though.
The truth being that compassion is what we want, and we're called Woke for it, but bigots don't like to claim they have no compassion, so they need a new word, which is why they went with Woke.

I remember in 6th form college in 94 being told not to use the DOS command line that I was used to and to use the default Win 3.1 instead

Because even if you like the way you look you can enhance features that you want to in order to fit certain moods or styles you like. In other words, it can be a form of self expression just as much as clothes. Don't get me wrong, there are people who use it because they feel ugly, but there is also much more to it than that.

No, it's cool only on the internet, I guarantee as a young goth (or like we get called in the scene baby bat) that you get bullied a lot even today, but the problem might be that I'm in italy or if you don't get bullied you are a fetish for others and get sexually harassed

I dont believe they need to provide solutions. I believe that they need to be funded without specific interest groups manipulating the message

Reply to comment by JA_LT99 in The gray areas in your morals are one of the main defining characteristics of you. by mcshadypants
agreed, but i think op’s point was that where two different people would decide to stop something or to intervene is a defining characteristic that separates them

Reply to Dad Dash- an app where you get delivery from the hardware store, auto parts store, and also have service where they will come teach you how to tie a tie or whatever. Like Uber but not that. by [deleted]
I'd use it. Finding what I need in Harbor freight tools is always a pain, and there's not enough employees walking the isles.

Reply to comment by MinFootspace in A woman can lose a limb and not be able to grow it back. But she can then get pregnant, and her body can grow the limbs she lost, for someone else. by exultantunderwear68
Yeah it blew my mind when I learned that the placenta is not the mother's, but the fetus's!
