  • Bullets used to kill UnitedHealthcare CEO had words written on them, law enforcement official says

  • Yeah and then you won’t be able to pay for housing built by other working class people and food grown by other working class people. Wait that’s weird. I can’t seem to find the billionaires in that equation. It’s almost like the needs of working class people could be met by… other working class people.

  • I was not aware media outlets were talking about how amazing and hardworking billionaires are. No. Do you have some examples?

    Oh come on. If you really are in the room with billionaires at charitable events you know the press is often invited to write puff pieces about how generous they are.

    Are you saying that wealthy people should not use their money to build hospitals or help dying kids?

    I’m saying we shouldn’t let people undemocratically decide whether or not working class people build hospitals and treat dying kids. By advocating that billionaires hold that power you are literally siding against democracy. But hey I guess all those super yachts just need to be built. For the good of society right?

  • Where in your answer did you say. “Cuba has the most doctors per capita”? Because all I see is you trying to weasel your way out of answering directly. I mean like do you even understand how absurd you sound trying to relativize Cuba with Monaco?

  • That’s what your buddies want you to believe top maintain the class war.

    What class war? All I see is a one sided massacre. This murder doesn’t event register on the scale of horror working class people are forced to endure daily.

    Speak with the people who run it and fund the operation.

    What makes you think I haven’t? I know you’re right when you say they aren’t just in for the PR. Billionaires love getting their egos stroked publicly at fundraisers, ribbon cuttings, or other “charity” events. These are such nauseating displays of narcissistic behavior. I’m sorry you’re too wrapped up in their emotional sob stories to have any reasonable perspective when you’re in the room with these people.

  • How can possible think billionaires are better stewards of the power bestowed upon them by their immense wealth than a democratic society entrusted with that same power would be?

  • It’s not me who’s out of touch it’s all you plebs! Don’t you understand the divine right of CEOs?!

  • It generates value.

    It’s true! Value just springs forth into this world from the ether. It’s basically alchemy. No other more rational expiation for it.

    What if I plan to create more products and need the extra revenue to invest in the new business opportunity?

    What if I need my peasants to each give me a bit more grain this season because the plague killed half of them? What if I also need to feed my knights so I can conquer new territories? Why should those lousy peasants have a say in any of that?

  • No one is telling the good stories about good billionaires.

    Omg this right here is so funny. You must be blind. Media outlets talk non stop about how amazing, smart, caring, and hardworking billionaires supposedly are.

    Those who build hospitals, contribute to fighting childhood cancer, who support public schools and build homes for the homeless.

    Oh right so do the billionaires actually pour the concrete? Do they administer the chemo to the kids with cancer? Do they put together assignments for students? Do they hammer the nails to frame the house they’re supposedly building? Because as I see it if all they’re doing is signing check then they really haven’t done anything for anyone. It’s just our fucked up society means all the people that actually do good in the world need the sign of from a billionaire. If you don’t have their approval but you still want to work for the benefit of all, tough luck. Rent is still due at the end of the month.

  • Charitable organizations are basically PR for billionaires. You’re just foolish enough not to realize that.

  • Do you have any idea how an economy actually works? Money doesn’t build buildings. It doesn’t treat sick patients. It doesn’t conduct medical research. People and their labor do all of that.

  • So many words and yet you didn’t answer the question.

  • Biden allows Ukraine to use US arms to strike inside Russia

  • There was plenty of organic separatism in much of Eastern Ukraine after Maidan. The support they received from Russia doesn't invalidate that fact.

  • Honey

  • Personally I’m not sure the gate keeping you’re observing is all that much of an issue. I think it’s useful to remember many vegans are also public advocates for veganism. It’s important to them that people generally know what they mean when they advocate for veganism.

    However, the definition of all words are always in flux. It’s not uncommon to see people call themselves vegan when a more apt description of their lifestyle would be plant based, flexitarian, vegetarian, etc. As such, I think edge cases like your friend take on an outsized importance that goes beyond the morality of your friend eating honey.

    Basically, the goal may not be the social exclusion of your friend which is what I think is usually the problematic aspect of gatekeeping.

  • CBT is useful as a way of addressing all sorts of issues someone might be dealing with. It's very common for therapists today to incorporate aspects of CBT into their practice regardless of the client. It's not just something used to treat severe mental illness.

  • What, specifically, do I need CBT for?

    Ask yourself, are you happy arguing with some something this deep into a comment thread? Are you really getting anything out of it? Because if the answer is no but you find yourself still engaging, it's probably worth talking to a therapist about.

  • CBT helps plenty of people live happier and healthier lives. You don't actually need to be diagnosed with any mental illness to find it useful.

  • I actually recommend going to someone who specializes in CBT and not psychoanalysis. That said if the latter is all that's available to you it's generally better than nothing.

  • I think it's generally good practice to go see a therapist every once in awhile if you can afford it and even if you feel fine. I'm not trying to diagnose you and therapists don't really do that either. But yes, seeing the way you've interacted with me and others I think is enough for me to give you that advice.
