It’s significantly different in America. I think doordash has different payment structures in Europe bcos of laws whereas, in most of America, drivers are paid next to nothing. It’s like tipping culture with American service workers, except way worse.

So like, inflated prices (set by the restaurant and optional, but often done to make up for doordash’s cut) + delivery fee (pocketed by doordash of course!) + ridiculous tip bcos now I gotta pay this driver’s livable wage.

Door dash really is an unsustainable business. It’s probably gonna tank in the next 5 years, I’d bet.

Not all religious people use abusive child rearing techniques and punitive social controls.

Even if you were more specific to say “all organized religion”, but even that would be purely speculative on your part, because it is literally impossible for you to know.

Definitively, your “all of them” statement is wrong. Evidence? My own upbringing where I was allowed to leave the church with basically no resistance.

Otherwise I agree with you. But don’t go tying weak speculation with strong arguments- you’re making your argument, and mine by extension, look less true.

From my perspective, organized religion predisposes people to being easily brainwashed.

Someone that is a decent person BECAUSE of their invisible friend in the sky will also do and permit evil things if they are convinced that it pleases invisible sky friend.

I’d honestly rather people that “need” religion to “be good” just be bad. Then we can weed them out easier.

Not really. We all still recognize that a police officer murdering someone is fundamentally bad.

Just because people are glad that a violent, brainwashed magat died bleeding in the street doesn’t mean they think it’s okay that the system allowed for it.

Are you familiar with “even a broken clock is right once a day”?

Lol.

You have a fundamental misunderstanding.

The philosophy behind ACAB is that the American police system and its proponents abuse the system and work to keep each other from facing consequences. “Good cops” may enter the force, but they don’t last long, because those who don’t play along and look the other way eventually get ousted, whereas those they tattled on get rehired at a different station.

The idea isn’t that literally all cops ever will always be bastards. It’s that (under the current system) all cops are bastards.

Did you just stop reading after the first sentence?

Yeah bro, because hating Trump means I want to gargle Biden’s balls. You’re a waste of time.

But, for the sake of others reading this:

Trump said that if hostages weren’t released, there would be hell to pay in the middle-east. In other words, he applied pressure to HAMAS- but not, you know, the genociders.

Additionally, if you click on the source noting Trump’s incoming envoy’s vague “involvement”, you will note that he had no direct involvement in the negotiations. 🤔

Edit: I take it back, tentatively. There was a second reference in the following sentence that elaborated on the Trump admin’s involvement. Interesting. Okay. So it seems that they did pressure Israel to agree to a ceasefire.

We’ll see how long that lasts, considering the last ceasefire lasted 6 days and all.

Acting like Trump is easing up the genocide is fucking delusional.

“Trump is the reason for the ceasefire!!”

Are you intellectually dishonest or just stupid? The ceasefire that has been being planned for months, with literally 0 involvement from Trump, because he literally had 0 authority until like a week ago? Holy fuck.
