  • That’s because it’s an adjective. It’s like saying “I was talking to a black.” It’s icky and devalues people.

    Ever notice how the same people the say “female” don’t also say “male”?

    (Yes, I know female can be a noun, but in those cases, it’s typically in relation to live stock or in science.)

    I don’t mind paying for the service at a reasonable price. The US pricing is out of control.

    But I have a VPN so I don’t pay that much. Sometimes YouTube kicked me off and I use another location.

    But like why? IM TRYING TO PAY YOU, YOUTUBE. The next step is full Adblock and you get nothing.

    Its like they don’t even want my money and would rather I just block the ads for free.





  • Idk Bayer made some hemophilia drugs, realized they were tainted with HIV and Hepatitis after it had started selling.

    They pulled it from the US and Europe but sold the rest in Asia and Latin America.

    They continued producing the medication for something like a year after admitting that it was tainted and when the updated safer version was available, they told distributors to use up the old stock before selling the new version.

    Fuck capitalism.
