  For those who worry about this and other services like this, privacy.com is the solution.

  You basically create virtual credit cards with an amount limit. At any point you can cancel the credit card and not worry about all the hoops you need to cancel.

  This is why I’m in favor of public transit. So many people should not be on the road. This goes for the granny under the speed limit drivers and the insane road ragers.

  Yeah porn is definitely just “information flow”, there’s nothing beyond it and it can’t affect minor individuals. Really? That’s not disingenuous? So online gambling shouldn’t be age restricted? There’s no “physical” aspect to it.

  Oh let’s not forget, it certainly doesn’t objectify women.

  Its certainly the parents responsibility to make sure those kids dont drink. And if they do, there should be repercussions just like we have the same expectations with Gun use.

  People are not gonna agree with me but, it makes sense to have age verification just like you have to verify your age for tobacco or alcohol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the manosphere on the rise? UN Women sounds the alarm over online misogyny⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots of feminists want to blame every problem on men. That backfired and now a lot of men are doing the same.

  Loneliness and being disconnected from the community doesn’t help either.

  Special weapon won’t save them in a long war with Iran. Which is why they want US involvement

  Reddit was already compromised. For those that were there, there was incident that showed that most of the top posts made are made by a handful accounts on several subbreddits. Keep an eye for things like this, in fact you should be suspicious of .world and their actions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Your right about that, it is a fair thing to point out. However, I will mention that the democratic party has a hostile past to 3rd parties where they would do things like suing them to get them off ballots.

  Here is one example for reference: apnews.com/…/2022-midterm-elections-lawsuits-voti…

  This is democrats and Republicans not wanting people to vote for their candidate of choice because they have to constantly play the game of the lesser of two evils

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘My Property Tax Went From $15K to a Life-Altering $91K a Year’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I see your point for general taxes, but if the federal and state government are already taking your income and many other things how come they’re also taking so much in property tax? Many other countries seem to be able to protect you and give you what you need without property tax.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘My Property Tax Went From $15K to a Life-Altering $91K a Year’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yearly property taxes never made sense to me. So you supposedly bought and own something, except if you don’t pay the government then they can just take it away.
