Hijab is a stupid relic of a bygone era (Ancient Rome and Mesopotamia) & was also adopted by some Muslim countries.

I’d guess the body image issues & mental health kinda play second fiddle to the fact that in a lot of Muslim countries you can legally beat the shit out of your wife and then rape and impregnate her…

Just as long as that stays in Afghanistan and isn’t imported to the developed world we’re all good lol.

Literally don’t care, it’s not our problem to be the world police. Where is my free healthcare/college/6mo of parental leave?

Oh wait, we gave a bunch of weapons to Ukraine so they could fight Putin when they were stupid enough to give up their nukes in the 90s with the Russian bear on their doorstep. Some weapons makers also made a lot of money, but you don’t hear democrats talking about that (I’m looking at you Maria Cantwell lol).

We’ve basically been gaslit into believing this is a moral imperative to support giving $$$ to Ukraine and many other countries. This is illogical it should be America First!

And no executives went to prison for the breach. We do not have justice in this country, but also realize this is not going to change.

You are brainwashed by the Military-Industrial-Congressional complex into thinking that the USA has some sort of moral imperative to be the world police, were the only duty of the government is to serve the people which it is currenly not doing and instead serving the interests of the elite and corporations.

I don't care about Ukraine/Tiwan/Vietnam, and the government should not either, it aint our problem. We can literally nuke Russia or China or DPRK if they try to invade or nuke us.

We should put troops on the border to defend it, but that would also deprive USA agribusiness of cheap labor [illegals] or noncitizens whatever the Biden speach police wants you to call them these days.

What we need to care about is income inequality, healthcare, and that most people are either overweight or obese. This is the real national security threat that noone can talk about.

Making systemic interventions into healthcare to prevent chronic illnes from overweight + obesity would give a ROI that is....insane. But we don't want to do that and instead give money to arms manufacturers to then give them to Ukraine, which is stupid.

We literally have people who are overdosing from drugs in the street, and the gov does not care about them. Instead it ostensibly cares about people on the other side of the world to boost some geopolitical agenda.

What we need to do is get rid of income taxes and git rid of the military.

"It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliance with any portion of the foreign world": it was George Washington's Farewell Address to us. The inaugural pledge of Thomas Jefferson was no less clear: "Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations-entangling alliances with none."

Taxes buy stealth bombers, M1 tanks, drones to bomb people that the United States does not like, and also the overthrow of many different governments https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_involvement_in_r....

Taxes also pay rich politicans like Rick Scott to defraud medicare.

Taxes pay for different political parties to push their agendas both left and right.

This is government not by the consent of the governed, the governemnt does not represent me at all, but I pay my taxes becuse men with guns will ultimately come and put me in jail by force if I do not.

One person's bloat is another Microsoft PM KPI target.

This is great, if M$ is going to still be a defacto monopoly in the business world we need an OS that does what you tell it to, and nothing more.

With shipping times going out into the weeks range, IMO it is time to just cut out the middleman and order directly from wish or aliexress.

That is an interesting idea for product reviews, if you could have people up/downvote and that would be an alternative to Amazon reviews.
