What is the most infuriating "is not a big deal" you have ever heard?

I also feel particularly passionate about this, as felt totally dismissed by nearly every adult in my life as a kid. That shit feels so defeating and isolating. it can seriously fuck you up.

This. Sexual abuse goes ignored because of this attitude in parents

I dislike US rule because it self-imposes itself over the entire world, trying to insert its media in every facet of everyone's life, its military in impoverished countries, effectively forcing them to stay poor and "not a threat to US democracy" under the guise of rescue, etc.. One state's terrorist is a people's freedom fighter. I looked back at 9/11 for example, the event they're still sensitive about. The US, through oppression and infestation, turned men into the 'terrorists' that became Al Qaeda.

I buy the games that deserve it, when i can afford it.
Over 900 games on steam, not garbage either.
Piracy has its place, but voting with the wallet is important too.

Eating meat. It contributes 15-20% of the entire planets greenhouse gasses alone. And people do it just for pleasure. It's mindboggling.

Capitalism isn't a big deal. As though giving a select few billions won't corrupt the nation around them over time.

Legalize cannibalism

A force like ice is necessary though. Unregulated immigration does result in issues in the receiving country;that only works when 2 countries are economically similar. It's their use that's indictive of faciam rather than their existence imo

Absolutely and lets add that some children only disclose once to a trusted adult who might not always pay attention.
It breaks my heart. -
It is. Sending you an internet Hug. You matter and should have had someone who listened to you back then.

The comment is about the case google won for collection and selling data of individuals and the ramifications of that case. This is the primary underlying issue in the present.
The right to own and sell a part of a personβtheir digital self is ultimately a forfeiture of autonomous citizenship. It is also an implied forfeiture of freedom of information which is the third pillar of democracy. Allowing the ownership over a part of a citizen is giving up citizenship. This is why you do not own anything, and everything is a subscription, and enshitification; it is all due to this one core issue of your right to own all of yourself free from slavery including the sale and exploitation of a part of your person. This is a master link, the precedent that lead to where we are at. "The ads based internet" is about the sale and collection of your personal data with the intent to exploit you. That is a violation of a fundamental human right. This was never about banner ads. It is about placing people in information bubbles and spheres of influence. It is about stupid consumers and corporate overlords extracting taxes for every move a peasant makes. Such is the true power of controlling information. Like your internet search results are not deterministic. It does not matter where you search. There are only 2 web crawlers that are relevant in the present world; Google/Microsoft. All others indirectly query these two. They can fingerprint and track nearly everyone in real time. You are being targeted for more than just ads. This is the death of democracy because a citizen must be autonomous and well informed in any democracy and this is not possible when you can be manipulated through bowdlerization and targeted misinformation or overload.

Oh hey, I appreciate the info! Seems I misremembered. I actually attempted to double check before posting but kept getting wildly different numbers from different sources.

What consenting adults do in the privacy of their own home is not the matter of the state!
