Lol...
Do you link British Petroleum's website when people talk about how bad climate change is?
... No, but I'd sure trust them to describe oil drilling to me.
Christ, Lemmy sucks ass
Kid or troll. Hopefully kid. Has to be. There are so many imbeciles on this site it's hard to tell sometimes though
Amen. Some of the shit I see here...
So leave?
I'm actively trying to find a non-Reddit content aggregator, then I'm getting the hell away from this freak show.
I've been saying it for months now. This shithole is just reddit 2.0 now and there's a reason I deleted my account over there years ago.
My label for that user is, "regularly confidently incorrect".
There are a few power users like them around here and it can be fun to watch them argue with folks. Perhaps they just enjoy the act of arguing? They might just be malicious, but I prefer to imagine that most people are trying their best to engage in good faith more often than not.
Like I said, it’s made of the same dipshits as Reddit.
You are free to fuck right off
Buddy, the second I find a better content aggregator that isn't Reddit I'm out.
Don't you think the people selling it would want to sell it at the higher medical grade price than to fucking Dollar Tree one bottle at time? Given the choice they would provide it for medical use.
It's not about total revenue, it's profit margin...
If medical grade sells for $1k/unit, and balloon sells for $10/unit, but it costs $1k/unit to refine...
They're gonna want to sell it for balloons.
Because while it's essentially a finate resource, on a capitalist timescale there's a lot.
They're fine fucking over the people 500 years from now, because they get rich now.
Which is why I keep using the example of the fossil fuel industry.
Capitalists care about their own capital, not future society generations from now.
Can't we sensationalise the same way they would..
Capitalists care about their own capital, not their children.
