I wasn’t referring to any form of physical work, I mean specifically within capitalism. Be it Amazon or otherwise.

All labour is exploitation.

Yep. And I’d argue it’s an almost ethical responsibility for those aware of all this to preserve a media archive via piracy. Sort of like those monks that would repeatedly copy old scrolls before they would degrade or whatever.

And it was always clearly stated as such. It’s absurd that anyone was upset by this. I have yet to find a single user on here who did not properly understand what it was for, or at least none willing admit to being that dumb.

Eventually people will say that about the current options lol.

There should be no default percent options at all. None.

‘complete transaction’ or ‘add optional tip’.

Would be cool if they said fuck you to the EU.

People kept worrying about Canada breaking a UN rule but Canada said fuck it and did it anyway.

Did this actually happen to you? I’ve been to, and even smoked weed in (discreetly), Germany many times as a tourist without issue. It was just annoying that it was technically illegal…but no one ever attempted to drug test me or ask me about drug use at all.

Is this real legalization like in Canada, or fake legalization like most other places?

If a tourist can’t buy it from a store, fly to a different city/state domestically with it, and then smoke it at a designated airport smoking area outside the terminal… I struggle to see that as full ‘legalization’.

If you are prohibited from doing all those things, it just seems like a different version of prohibition. Step in the right direction though, sure.

I think it works well in Switzerland.

Isn’t that the goal? To bring negative attention to those not paying them adequately?

Edit: ohhh, headline left out the negative opinions impacting teachers too which is mentioned in the article.

This whole thread started because someone mentioned the idea of taxing vehicles over 5000lbs, which a normal gas f150 is not. So this hypothetical tax probably wouldn’t apply to your work truck.

And yeah, I also was poking fun at the people giving you shit because they are accidentally showing implied support for combustion engines.

And I’m having a giggle in general about how often people don’t read the article or get sidetracked from what is actually even being talked about.

The entire article is about an EV truck specifically.

So not a 7000lb+ EV then?

I think some of them were at that music festival…

Thanks, I was finally able to make my colourblind brain see it.

Is this one of those things that colourblind people see right through? Because I just see a lady sitting in her vehicle with legs a similar colour to the seat. What am I missing here?

I also prefer the actual legalization of all drugs. Decriminalization is barely better than prohibition with inconsistent purity and implicit support of organized crime.

Edit: Oh sorry, I misread. I’m curious as to why you support decriminalization but not legalization. Also, aren’t many forms of opiates already legal when sourced correctly? Like for medical applications and stuff?

The only drug specifically mentioned in the article is cannabis lol. As such, no not Portuguese, but I am from somewhere much more progressive than Portugal when it comes to cannabis regulations. Can a random tourist even go buy a joint legally from a store in Portugal yet? If any adult can’t go buy it from a store legally without any further justification, then it isn’t actually legal.

But they had already discovered it. They both used opium and traded opium well before the British flooded them with it. “it was a normal item of use and trade for centuries before the 1840 war”

The way Korea vilifies recreational drug use is completely absurd and likely led to this.

I love traveling in Korea (and Japan), but have a hard time convincing myself to go back to a place with such fundamentally unethical policies in place.
