I mean, I agree with you on all this, but I have a very hard time seeing how this is relevant to my comment. The topic was conservative propaganda techniques, not hating conservative voters. I despise them, but hate is too strong a word for me to feel for any person.

The average maga voter isn’t the mind behind the propaganda they parrot.

It’s a classic conservative propaganda technique to name their evil plans the opposite of what they actually mean. If it contains the word “freedom” it’s about tyranny. If it says “protect” it means persecution, and if it says “children” just mentally append “fuck” in front of it.

For some predators, cruelty is the delightful show they get with their dinner.

You can just say you also don’t trust therapists.

It’s fingerprinting your system to gain information about you that way, not through listening in on you in real space.

It’s playing inaudible audio, not recording.

It kinda had to at some point right? DNA didn’t exist until something other than DNA led to it.

I have a Patreon and I promote it sometimes. I post novels and art made by myself and collaborators. Nobody cares. I don’t do endless shameless self promotion, I don’t have a pretty face, I’m not well connected, and I don’t have startup capital to produce the full range of things I’d like to make but can’t because I need a day job and am trying to get a degree.

It’s been soul crushing and every day is a struggle against giving up on it.

Don’t forget capital, but well said.

Currencies are issued by governments, but I agree that capital should be spotlighted as a major part of the problem.

Yes, that would be the ones holding the gun. Predator-minded self-serving people have always been among us, and instead of handling them properly we raise them up and put them in charge over us time and time again. Religion and government, the perennial weapons used by the human enemies of humanity.

Eww, animal abuse.

What kind of people do you think start and flock to religions that offer worldly power and authority? Organized religion isn’t just problematic, it is the smoking gun.

Shoplifting is a felony charge.

Looks very huggable!

A mouse can’t tell us what works"

And neither can a disembodied miniature organ? What a weird headline.

You know, you’re right! The actual study tested dozens of bacterial strains and different sweeteners, and the article cherry picked one tiny fact to vagueify into clickbait. I’ll edit my comment to reflect this.

One specific sweetener, in conjunction with one specific medication, among dozens of tested bacteria and sweetener combinations. This is bad journalism.
