They literally are the far right

That’s not at all what that means, nor does it make any sense.

I’ll come back to this in 4 weeks. See you then 😉

The parts of the economy that would be heavily impacted by oil prices

Literally all of it. https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/06/oilpricesinflation.asp

are already in the gutter.

You’re not wrong. Does not refute my claim though.

Two things that have also failed to manifest, in large part thanks to the prolific state spending following COVID.

We’re still only 3 days into this war. And yet this is already manifesting right now in real life as we debate it on the internet. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/live/stock-market-today-dow-sp-500-nasdaq-sink-while-oil-prices-jump-as-iran-attacks-jolt-markets-235000934.html

Trump’s very obviously not going to do that.

Yes, agreed, this is very obvious. Because Trump does not have control over the interest rates.

oil skyrocketing in price and the economy and stock market taking a huge hit could cause the investments required to prop up the bubble to run out of steam

Software would ask the OS for the age range of the user (under 13, 13-15, 16-17, 18+). The software would implement content filters based on these age ranges.

The OS is only responsible for requiring the user to set an age and providing the age range to software.

Yes you have.

So this is basically just misinformation. There is no age or identity verification as part of this bill, the age is self-reported by the user and you could select any age you want. The bill requires the operating system to have users select an age when creating an account. The intention is that parents will select their child’s age when setting up their child’s accounts on phones and computers, to age-gate them from accessing certain software or websites.

Regardless, I don’t support this feature being mandatory, because it limits parents’ choices. Parents should be able to choose to disable this feature entirely or allow their children to use an OS that does not include this feature, if that is what they feel is appropriate for their child.

That’s why I always run my text through an LLM for refinement before posting it. 😉

Then why won’t you say that artificial insemination IS rape?

Because it is not true.

regardless of how much you try to derail the conversation.

Actually, I’m the only one who has stayed on topic and avoided strawman arguments here.

I advocated for broadening the scope of what we call rape to more than just humans. It’s anthropocentric to think that only humans can be raped.

I’ve never contested this. We agree on this point. Continuing to argue it is a strawman.

No, I never make personal attacks or ad hominem. The fact that you’ve stooped to this level shows that your argument has failed and you cannot use logic or reasoning to back it up.

What does it say that you’ve downvoted the message “Personal attacks are not welcome here”. I think everyone should support that message.

I have won this argument for a 2nd time because you have no other response besides “no u”

In the meantime, us vegans will keep convincing people successfully that…

Honestly, this reads as you trying to reconvince yourself. Just repeat the mantra to yourself, and the cognitive dissonance that I brought to light will go away?

any animal can be raped

True

cows who are artificially inseminated

Is not rape and you already admitted it is not equivalent to rape. Consider if you would look an actual rape victim in the face and talk to them about artificial insemination of cows as if it were rape and comparable to the real suffering they went through. I bet you wouldn’t.

That is my understanding but I am not an expert.

when the really fallacy is your inability to understand nuance and context

That’s truly ironic. Again, no self awareness at all? Nuance and context is what I have highlighted for you. If you understood nuance and context, then you would understand that things happening in a different context to different subjects are actually nuanced and different. Instead your flawed world view requires all of this to be viewed as black and white and the same, when it is not.

“Comparison doesn’t mean perfect equation.”

this you?

You admitted that artificial insemination of livestock is not equivalent to rape. So yes, I did come out on top, as this was the original point that we were debating. If there is something else you’d like to still debate, you can make another point. But my point has been resolved.
