Economic imbalance is baked into the games.
Taking your own air conditioner and rubbing it in the face of those who can’t afford it, in the olympic village where you’re all supposed to be treated the same, is such a glaring display of economic privilege that i find it bothersome.
I’m always embarrassed by Australia spending a fortune on sport and then congratulating ourselves for winning more medals, especially at the commonwealth games where most of the countries are poor.
They made the news because they remind people who hate them of why they hate them. Not because anyone had a wakeup call. They increased the ambient hate.
You can’t remove individual differences but there ought to be a level playing field at least at the actual competition. Is it acceptable to provide better accommodation to rich countries? White countries? I think at the games everyone should be treated equally.
The athletes who get aircon will also be determined by who comes from a wealthy country. Makes a mockery of the games imo, should disqualify them all for having an unfair advantage.
The chauvinism was already there, that’s why they have more male children.
I want brioche donuts soooo much
Influencers should be called manipulators.
Are you glorifying a teenager burning themselves alive? This is disturbing.
Get mental health treatment.
I was really hoping for some theory of how sociopathy could be contagious. Nothing. I’ts just name-calling.
Listen, it’s a very easy premise: these anti-gay workers and activists believe homosexual thoughts are something everyone struggles with, because they experience similiar thoughts and urges all the time
What is the mental defect that makes people think everyone is like them or everyone is the same?
The mod even stated that the articles weren’t bullshit and please explain how the posting behaviour amounts to bad faith as defined by wikipedia:
Bad faith (Latin: mala fides) is a sustained form of deception which consists of entertaining or pretending to entertain one set of feelings while acting as if influenced by another.[1] It is associated with hypocrisy, breach of contract, affectation, and lip service.[2] It may involve intentional deceit of others, or self-deception.
Ozma was not being deceptive, pretending feelings or paying lip service. He was honest snd consistent, people just didn’t want to hear it.
So people who only post positive articles are also propagandists who should be banned?
I really don’t understand how this is classed as bad faith, which wikipedia describes as:
Bad faith (Latin: mala fides) is a sustained form of deception which consists of entertaining or pretending to entertain one set of feelings while acting as if influenced by another.[1] It is associated with hypocrisy, breach of contract, affectation, and lip service.[2] It may involve intentional deceit of others, or self-deception. >

i guess its mostly to give people who are transitioning to or trying out veganism a direct analog to a food they already are familiar with and feel like they are giving up?
I understand this reasoning, it just doesn’t work for me personally, it has the reverse effect, and they were really over the top about how they put it in solely to make it look like eggs, if they’d said it was to make it look nice i probably wouldn’t have reacted. I love paprika though and i think i would try that.
Making your food look like some other kind of food that you don’t even eat seems very silly to me. I watch a ton of cooking shows and this is the only time i’ve seen a chef do this. By all means make your tofu scramble however you like it, i don’t even see why it would look gross if it wasn’t yellow. It’s not about the colour, it’s about their expressly stated desire for pretense. They repeated several times tbat this was to make it look like eggs. If scrambled tofu is tasty then present that, it could be great with paprika, but if you have to make your food look like something else then i’m inclined to think it can’t stand on it’s own and probably sucks.
I’m curious about what percentage of programmers would give error free answers to these questions in seconds.
Others have even told Akhtar that their companies printed his face on keychains to express their disappointment with employees or on mugs, presumably to prevent them from drinking too much coffee.
Lolwat
I value honesty far more than popularity, i guess that explains why i don’t like the comic lol
I’m anticonsumption in general and temu just seems like the epitome of paying for disposable garbage.
In general i don’t understand why people are buying any nonessential items at all. Everyone is apparently too poor but random crap still sells. I splurged and bought a cheap tablet to use as an ereader this year but only because i can’t justify the expense of buying books and my local library is awful.
