I’m not sure you can even vocalize what you’re trying to say here.

The facts are just not in your favour.

https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/07/24/key-facts-about-americans-and-guns/

Key excerpt:

45% of Republicans and GOP-leaning independents say they personally own a gun, compared with 20% of Democrats and Democratic leaners.

You’ll find that all available information says similar.

Republicans have a much higher percentage of gun ownership than democrats.

It’s not just that they own more guns per individual. They have more individuals with guns.

You aren’t disagreeing honestly. You’re disagreeing as if you can’t see my arguments. I wish lemmy as a platform had a “mute replies to this comment” so I could stop seeing the replies on this thread specifically. No one is arguing in good faith, they’re all, like you, masturbating to the idea of feeling superior to people rather than acknowledging the disrespect to the customers.

By having the sign there, a certain percentage of stinky people are going to know they aren’t welcome and leave without having to be told.

That percentage is precisely 0.

People aren’t going in thinking they’re stink, and the ones who were before, won’t stop after.

For those who ignore it, the employees of the store and other customers now all have a posted policy they can point to when they ask them to leave. Opposed to not having the sign and it being left open to argument.

It wouldn’t be left open to argument regardless.

All this does is insult their customer base. That’s literally it. It serves no practical or functional purpose.

Any time I see signs generally insulting a customer base like this, you’ve lost me as a customer. Not just specifically this sign, but any sign in general talking down to customers.

I can’t believe the number of people who support this.

You was speaking in countr terms as was the your before it.

Even still, its like, there is no “we only support the non fascists” from a foreign perspective when it comes to tourism unfortunately.

I mean there is a little bit when it comes to trade, like trading with blue states, but like, its all very intertwined to where youll be funding the fascist regime.

Keeping their slaves miserable.

This is not an exaggeration btw, the US constitution specifically allows the government to use prisoners as slaves, and they often take them up on this offer.

For your oats, do you not add a bit of salt, some sugar and or some condensed sweetened milk?

But also, toast and some spread of any kind is pretty efficient. Like peanut butter with the amounts you can get can be pretty cheap.

It truly is the way too many enthusiasts on any topic think.

Like they can’t fathom the idea that other people are focused on other things despite this being 100% the reason humans were able to create what we have.

If humans all focused on the exact same things, we’d have a very narrow scope and much less innovation.

It’s why its so hard to find good advice.

You go to a cooking subreddit, and they’d have you thinking that unless you knew every artisinal craftsman shop in your area (your local butcher, your local baker etc etc), you must not know food, and that you need 400 dollar pans to get utility out of your cookware when literally just a common stainless steel set would do you just fine, and even if you had to replace it 20 times, it still wouldnt be the cost of the more expensive one.

People live in their own bubbles and expect that everyone else not only could but should meet them where they are in their bubble, rather than realizing that guess what, food is just to eat for most people, not some passion they want to dedicate multiple hours a day to.

This makes no sense. You could kick them out the same regardless of the sign. The sign only serves the purpose I’m mentioning and I’ve not seen an argument otherwise.

Leveling up and progressing are thing that give a sense of accomplishment.

Indeed. They are built to trigger your reward system rather than having you feel that naturally from the gameplay.

I absolutely think those are included and utterly hate grinding.

But you can’t tell me that making a build on a game like DND or building a world you like on Minecraft are “dark patterns”

Where are you getting that from there?

At this point your comment is tantamount to trolling, because there is no way you don’t understand my message.

You’re ignoring usecase, and the fact that even according to your facts, they’re super popular.

Yeah nah bud. You’re arresting people trying to leave your country, tourists are getting roughed up, and violence from the government is increasing.

I think your tourism deserves to decrease and you deserve to sleep in the bed you’ve made.

They said need.

They clearly arent interested in it for fun.

Specifically. You can’t afford anything but the most crystal clear case of self defence.

Thats a nice lie that left/center leaning people keep telling themselves.

The reality is that republicans by far have a higher percentage of gun owners.

If there were a fight that started today, there would be a sweep.

Then you have to remember that every force of violence in the US, LEOs, all branches of military, all support trump.

Too few, too little, too late.

I hope not, but I think a lot of them are still living with the fear of yesteryear that has not updated with the times and the threat of their neighbors having it in for them, and not being as worried about the legal repercussions.

The noose keeps tightening.

Google also has been trying to argue that modifying client side javascript is equivalent to hacking.

Modifying code running on your own fucking machine, in your own fucking browser.

It is nowhere near 1500.

More like 800.

For a nice PC that will last you a while 1100 (for like a 9600 + 9060XT)

PCMR people do not call other PCMR people peasants.

You must have given up not years, but decades ago.
