Trump and the rest of the red team are loudly and proudly proclaiming that they want to and moving that way in territory they control.

Do you have a suggestion as to what I should do that isn't accelerationism or removing any power I have to influence outcomes by turning to fantasy as a solution?

Well, I voted Biden in 2020, and here we are four years later and I ain't in a camp yet. Kind of seems like that's an inaccurate prediction, and you would be served by considering the chain of reasoning that led you to this pass, to see what improvements might be made in your process to enable better predictions in the future. Not every change is an improvement, but every improvement is a change.

Well, if my options to get dragged to the camps is either right now or in a few election cycles, I'm on the side of it taking longer.

pays a subscription

Subscriptions don't work

Little confused by this one, but yeah. I can't afford subscriptions, and I also can't afford the products and services the ads are for. Ads are just pollution in my consciousness, so why should I reduce my QoL for no benefit to anyone? If a creator says that if you use adblock, don't watch me, I won't. Site blocks adblockers, I don't use it. What else am I supposed to do, when I make less than a living and don't really have better options?

Usenet is where the term "flamewar" got invented, for discussions that were almost entirely heat and almost no light. It's very human, really.

McDonald's annual revenue for 2023 was $25.494B, a 9.97% increase from 2022. McDonald's annual revenue for 2022 was $23.183B, a 0.17% decline from 2021. McDonald's annual revenue for 2021 was $23.223B, a 20.9% increase from 2020.

That's for just one chain. Sure, I'm not saying there's no health food market, but it's a lot smaller. It doesn't sell as well. Which is what I said.

Healthy doesn't sell as well, delicious keeps people buying more and capitalism gonna capital.

Guess I'm a melee mercenary in a ranged weapons world now. Sucks, but at least I get self healing? Also an immunity, come to think of it.

If you aren't already aware, you may have misophonia. You aren't alone or crazy.
