Easy to say when you aren’t facing the threat of bias intimidation or hate crime by recently emboldened bigots, things that actually happen unlike the caravan paranoia.

Look at the stats, fentanyl has always been rarely prescribed and even more rarely prescribed compared to other opioids. The fentanyl crisis is a crisis of economics: there is less profit to be made in creating, smuggling and selling other opioids compared to fentanyl.

If you want to be accurate, doctors prescribed non-fentanyl opioids in situations where they weren’t needed, often illegally, when those prescriptions ran out, that caused a heroin crisis. That heroin crisis became a fentanyl crisis when drug dealers stopped selling heroin in favor of the cheaper and much stronger fentanyl.

Doctors aren’t prescribing, nor are they they source of, illicit fentanyl. The ease of synthesis means that clandestine labs can make a shit ton of the stuff, it’s that simple.

Because a global pandemic broke your sensor supply chain and you still want to sell cars with FSD anyway, so cameras-only it is!

This isn’t sufficient. I’ve been running DNS adblocking for a decade, advertisers have wised up to it and can easily sidestep it.

Doctors aren’t prescribing cocaine for the hell of it, though. Same thing with puberty blockers. Think we can trust doctors’ judgment when it comes to the drugs they prescribe.

These days IPP Print Everywhere support makes driverless printing easy

Insurance can still payout and people can still be made whole for property that’s deemed uninhabitable. You do not have to “continue to rebuild in Florida”, but you can make sure people’s lives aren’t completely ruined as a result of natural disasters.

Humor is a powerful rhetorical weapon. I wouldn’t discount it.

Because it’s easy to pull a trigger to permanently silence people who might become a slight inconvenience at most.

Yeah, is the UN trying to escalate the conflict by being attacked, blown up and chemical weapon’d by Israel?

I bet that damn UN is going to get away with it too!

That’s because price points exist. People will only pay so much for fast food.

Turns out wage increases don’t affect prices, just like the research has shown.

In the 2000’s, religious people would blame hurricanes on things like gay marriage.

This is a dumb argument and it’s still wrong. Likeness is protected by copyright laws. See Midler v. Ford.

What do you think

Agree with your premise, but supply chains for all food are horrendous. Leafy greens are the food that are most likely to give someone food poisoning, although the diseases are usually animal waste-borne.

He doesn’t like it.

There’s a reason he took the coward’s way out. Would have been much better to have held him accountable until the day he dies.

USWDS is new and is a response to exactly that problem. You’d be blaming people who have nothing to do with the status quo who were hired to fix the problems you’ve experienced.
