Actually being progressive to get women’s attention and tell them about how lucky they are that he’s not like these other closed minded men can certainly be used to control a woman. I highly recommend reading “Why does he do that? Inside the mind of angry and controlling men” by Lundy Bancroft.

I had to admit that I had been controlling of my wife for years and didn’t even realize I was doing it. Sometimes I try to cling to my old ideas and dismiss this stuff but I really can’t.

No one who eats chicken nuggets is doing it for the nutritional value.

It may, but that’s actually a sign of violence against women.

I thought that was only with frogs.

It feels to me like. bio fuels will do little more than drive up the cost of food and destroy more rain-forests so food can be grown there rather than in North America.

edit: This is just a feeling, I have no data to back it up, only that was what I observed in my small part of the world when many states in the Midwestern U.S. started subsidizing corn for ethanol like 20 years ago.

I used to own a Chevy Volt. Never having to stop at the gas station on the way to work was the best part of it. Thankfully it did have the gasoline back up though, otherwise I would never be able to visit my family as they all live hundreds of miles from where I do, thousands to get to my in-laws. (And no, flying to my in-laws isn’t really an option because its a three hour drive from the nearest airport to their house).

Clearly not all of them. Trump for instance. https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/legendary-economist-says-trumps-tariffs-could-replay-devastating-history

they want to keep THEIR guns, but you shouldn’t have a gun. If you aren’t the right kind of American the second amendment doesn’t apply to you. Remember the first gun law the U.S. ever had was one to keep freed slaves from owning one.

no, it bothered me when I first saw it. Took me a week to get over it before I could post it here.

LOL

My internet connection would sure improve if they got rid of HD.

You’d put a lot of people out of work.

No something I randomly saw on the internet

Grammar & punctuation fascist I see

I remember when we bought our first Windows PC in 1995 (We had had Tandy 1000 & a Commodore 64 before then) the sales guy told us, if you upgrade to the 1GB hard drive you’ll never fill it up in 20 years.

You can never convince me that wireless is better than a hardwired connection.

It’s their parents fault for not using GNU/Linux
