Ok. I’m curious now though. Do you choose to suffer unnecessarily as a joke on yourself? Is there a reason you choose to suffer when you don’t have to?

Like I can’t relate to your choice at all here and am very curious.

Ultimately it’s your life yah.

But I can’t help but think that adult humans don’t need to do penance and suffer for a year just because they made such a small mistake. It’s like a 12th century religious act.

I believe that adult humans can just learn not to do something without religious style self imposed suffering. If I burn my hand on the stove I don’t need to keep the wound in pain for a year in order to remember not to burn my hand again.

This all being said I am a humanist materialist. If people come from a spiritual background where self imposed suffering helps the soul I can see why they would do such a thing.

Hey. I’m going to ask why? Like if you are extremely tight financially I get it. But why make yourself suffer every day if it’s not needed? It’s going to be annoying and a slight negative to your day every day.

I am a bit skeptical this actually happened. The infographic is from a known Russian interests troll and just gives a “trust me bro” source.

I could be proven wrong though.

If I was teaching a media literacy class I would include this infographic as a good example of something that looks like it might have a source but actually does not.

You say most of the word should be DC I till you realize that you need a 3cm thick cable to move 2000w 30m. DC is really bad outside of low or ultra high power transmission.

Idk. Like all the usb ports were capped at like 5v 1a with shorted data lines. I always used my own charger just because it would take 6 hours to charge my phone using the built in usb plug.

Back in the days of windows xp and Alcohol 120% it didn’t. I remember having like 12 virtual disk drives each with an independent iso just to avoid swapping disks.

And that stuff is terrible. But I think it’s caused by systematic racism. (aka what we should actually worry about)

Like the comic empathizes the wrong thing. It reduces valid concerns with police to the level of sovereign citizens.

I don’t think so. I mean cops can be jerks but they’re really not dumb enough to just risk their jobs for $40 USD out of someone’s wallet. Let alone build a culture out of this.

Civil forfeiture of greater than $1000 USD where that stuff gets documented and people have the prove the “innocence” of that money on the other had is another issue.

Cops stopping people for cash just feels like a childish characterization. There are enough real problems with police to address (ie systematic racism and nepotism) no need to work with characterizations.

Are you saying this ironically? Everyone I don’t like should be banned and should die? This seems really authoritarian to me.

If I was driving dangerously it would only be just that I be punished proportionately. Same goes for everyone in every country.

If you call that boot licking so be it.

The same place it says it’s for civil forfeiture. This being said the police officer does have a ticket in hand which implies some sort of safety violation.

This comic could be taking place in China. The same scene could play out. Nothing specific to injustice in the USA here.
