It's literally one of the fundamental differences between like republican voters and likely democratic voters in the US. Democratic voters don't change their opinions based on who is doing the thing, Republicans will always agree when their leaders do the thing and disagree when democrats do it.

Semantics about, "oh it could exist", are not worth discussing except in bad faith.

Are you actually this dumb? Or are you an LLM purposely trained to have a backwards training set?

Wish I could still be this delusional. Ignorance really is bliss.

I previously voted republican and was raised in the fox news soup. Its cult worship behavior that forces them to worship their leader. Its a big part of why it's hard to move away from voting republican, they are all afraid of being cut out of the in group for disagreeing. None of that shit exists on the left, which is why they always argue about the basics.

They are bloated for no reason is my problem with them. I have an older chevy 3/4 ton for hauling our camper, boat, and the shit for renovating our fixer upper. The capability of a modern 3/4 ton is like 50% more at most, yet it's like 3 feet taller for no reason. I can still haul 3k+ lbs and tow 12k, but I can still see over the hood with very little issue.

A modern half ton is bigger than my 2001 3/4 ton truck. The bloat is real.

We do. They were printed from a print service that ships them to you. We do physical albums because I find it easier to hand to visitors than handing them my phone or trying to curate albums I can share digitally. Also don't have to manage who has access to my digital albums.

Alfred Hugenburg energy. Literal nazi shit.

Prefacing with, I want an e-bike.

As someone who commuted for a decade on a non e-bike. I'm legitimately wondering how we integrate them into existing infrastructure in the US. 50cc is the limit for gas engines before you need a motorcycle license, which at the high end is ~5HP. I'm seeing e-bikes with way more than 5HP being used on sidewalks. I don't have an answer to the problem but it scares me to have such easy access to basically motorcycles that are classified as bicycles. I spent 2 decades sweating and learning to ride fast, now an inexperienced idiot can do 20+ mph when they have no business going that fast.

I weirdly don't hate the warcraft movie. It sucks in some ways but it does a good job feeling like it's in the warcraft universe.

I'm a system integrator, and though I don't do it right now, I'd consider myself an expert in dairy. I could see someone specializing in chocolate similarly.

The reason people don't know about these jobs is because they aren't advertised very well. My MS in mechanical engineering barely touched on it and I sort of fell into it on accident by knowing someone in the industry.

Edit: thinking about it for a moment, I actually did some work for a European chocolate producer about a decade ago

It's such a hard topic to discuss because everyone has varying exposure to how much ground empathy can gain. After living it, I can say that they are more lost than most people think.

So start treating them the way they will treat you. Personally I'll leave someone to die if they have a Trump sticker/flag/hat/etc, because they would do the same to me.

I'm ex republican. Higher education and having my life ripped apart by our state's AG fixed me... barely. Compassion won't fix these people. They fucking suck to their core and would rather die than change their opinions. I don't have a good solution. Platforming the stupid in our country is a large part of the problem.
