Then they need to speak the fuck up about it instead of stuffing their fingers in their ears and pretending everything is all honky dory.

What if this was like an abusive relationship where you want to believe so badly all their lies and excuses, and all their attempts to explain why it’s not what it looks like.

Because it is exactly like that. I’ve been on the receiving end of an abusive relationship - the similarities here are astounding.

Unilever has owned B&J’s for quite some time now.

I just looked it up, Unilever bought them in April of 2000. That’s over 25 years ago. Part of that merger was an agreement that B&J’s could still be vocal about things, and it looks like Unilever has tried to go back on that several times. Something I also just found, Unilever is apparently spinning off the ice cream brands… I guess we will see what happens next.

Yes. Yes they do.

At least NCIS people had the decency to admit it was intentional

a common ammo manufacturer’s mark

Wait wait, what? So did the alleged shooter actually carve anything into the casings, or was it just the factory markings that fox is trying to spin?

Even if he does walk free, they’re going to drag it out as long as they can to make his life hell. Just like they’re doing with Luigi.

and then someone uses science to say “there was paper over here; must be where the note went!”

Ah yes, Bones science

Ah, the Joseph Smith defense.

Pundits made an entire career out of pure speculation. I hate watching, listening to, even reading that kind of shit - topic be damned. But especially with topics that genuinely interest me. It’s just pointless fluff.

They’re no better than youtube channels that post videos about cars…that are completely AI generated. One dude in an automotive discord that I’m in almost fell for one.

Upvoting for honesty.

This is literal toddler-level finger pointing.

This is toddler shit. Fucking clowns.

I would straight up start busting windows out of any vehicle with trump stickers. But I have a family who needs fed and housed, so I don’t.

Yet.

Wow, what fragile egos.

Someone keyed my minivan over the weekend, probably because of some pro-trans/science stickers. Luckily the paint is not a concern of mine (it had rattle-canned sections when I bought it, I knew what I was getting), but still. I pointed it out to my wife, she just quipped “and they call us snowflakes 😂”. God I love that woman.

All of this shit makes me want to play dirty now. Preach hate, get hate; and all that.

Frankly, I’m disgusted with the state of this country and a large chunk of the people within. Media companies are owned by fucking billionaires and just parrot whatever distractions are convenient for the moment with absolutely zero oversight (thank Reagan for going after the Fairness Doctrine, that fucking twat).

And the biggest problem? It works. It works really well. Only when a foreign news article makes it stateside does the gravity of the situation really present itself, but naturally it’s dismissed as “propaganda” by these right wing fuckwits.

I run install teams from Japan on occasion. I wouldn’t blame them for not wanting to return either.

the retribution that South Korea will provide will be delicious to watch.

American here. I agree wholeheartedly.

I hate to say it, but I think your conversational partner might be right.
