The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

I really don’t think “soft on crime” and “religion that consigns you to eternal fire for eating shellfish and mixing fabrics” go together, but what do I know?

Money.

The answer to any “Why is company X fucking everyone?” is always because it makes some asshole somewhere an obscene amount of profit.

Depends. Only 7 US states still recognize common law, and some have hefty length of cohabitation requirements.

The corporation continues as a separate legal entity. The business assets and liabilities belong to the corporation itself, not its owner. His shares would be passed to his next of kin or, if he didn’t have one, would become property of the state and most likely auctioned off.

Cultural Marxism conspiracy theory

Cultural Marxism is a far-right antisemitic conspiracy theory that misrepresents Western Marxism (especially the Frankfurt School) as being responsible for modern progressive movements, identity politics, and political correctness.

Assumedly, since it was a red shirt that proclaimed the wearer was a Cultural Marxist, that it was poking fun. Proclaiming “I am responsible for progressivism!” in effect.

“Economies go up and down, it doesn’t matter.”

Is probably the least politically and economically conscious thing you could have said.

Are you paying attention AT ALL to what’s currently going on in the world? Or do you just not give a shit?

Leaving out the fact that America’s economy is in freefall and it’s currently experiencing a fascist collapse is…a choice.

I’m so glad that I immediately go for the “Do Not Recommend Channel” whenever I see him on YouTube. I genuinely think it’s made a positive difference in my blood pressure / stress levels.

What’s more important? Your sister or whether or not she practices Islam?

You can absolutely take the fundamentalist route on this, but 99% likelihood it won’t work and she’ll disappear from your life forever. People who’ve already made the decision to leave their faith almost never respond positively to threats of damnation to make them return.

Do you have non-Muslim friends? If so, you might need to examine your feelings and opinions about why it’s okay for them to not be Muslim, but not your sister.

Bottom line is every human being makes their own decisions about what to believe. Your sister has made her decision. You can support that or not, depending on what you’re comfortable with, but you can’t just decide to change her decision for her. Life doesn’t work that way.

I personally have never lived somewhere where I don’t lock the doors, even if I’m home. It just makes me feel safer.

Conversely, my dad, who lives about 15 minutes from me, has never locked the front door of the house in the 45 years I’ve been alive. When he goes away somewhere, he leaves the garage door unlocked so neighbors can borrow tools and the kids in the neighborhood can grab a ball if they need one. Nothing has ever gone missing.

If you want to continue having a relationship with your sister, let her make her own choices.

Nothing says “I need to never speak to my family again.” like some good old religious oppression.

A burger company has no vested interest in making a partisan burger making program because the way a program makes burgers can’t force people into categories where a political outcome is more likely

A company writing a districting program for an easily bribed government has a vested interest in writing a program which will then divide people into groups who are likely to vote in a government who will then be amenable to writing regulations beneficial to the company, creating a self-fulfilling bribery circlejerk.

Which you would very well know if you weren’t a troll arguing in bad faith.

This is the last reply you’re going to get out of me, since your comments on ICE have made any further engagement with you a moot point.

I don’t interact with bootlickers.

How would a company’s ethics and business strategy affect the software they write for the customer holding all the money and writing the regulations?

Are you literally incapable of critical thought?

That is NOT what you said, you backpedalling little weasel.

You said long lines at airports are hurting Americans more than ICE. There is nothing you can say now to fix it.

Copy and paste, copy and paste! If I yell loud enough, facts won’t penetrate!

Copying your reply from another comment just shows how little you can actually refute anything.

How do you plan to offset the rampant corruption endemic in the companies that would be writing your miracle program, quiz kid?

The same tech companies that have a vested interest in bribing the current government, both financially and with favorable incentives?

The same tech companies whose existence as a profit earning entity rests in having the sitting leadership favor them with lenient regulations and lax antitrust rulings?

Wow. Tell me you actually haven’t given this any logical thought without telling me.

The agency murdering and disappearing Americans into concentration camps isn’t hurting people as much as LONG. LINES.

…

Holy shit. You definitely win the “Morally Bankrupt Person on the Internet” award for today.
