Ha, yeah I’m on board with your second point, man.

Hey, I totally agree with you.

The concept behind these apps is fine, even helpful. I’ve used these types of apps when I’ve been unwell and couldn’t get to the shops. I’m not forgetting people who are disabled. I don’t own a car.

I agree, an app that provided a similar service that took care of its employees would be fine. An app that provided a similar service without jacking the prices up massively and pushing junk food would be great.

I know and agree with you that the poor treatment and underpayment of workers is a problem.

Yes, of course your alternative app would be worth supporting.

We do not seem to be in any disagreement here.

No.

Are you familiar with the clip of that person saying like, “Well Mr Trump, if you deport all the Mexicans, who will clean your toilets?”

I’m only asking cos this feels like the same situation. I think you’re pointing at a wider problem which is legit, but the way you’re expressing it is really hamfisted.

The kind that only lower class minorities work? /s in case it wasn’t obvious

While I think these apps are exploitative on both sides (exploiting laziness/convenience and exploiting workers), I think implying that people who use delivery services are racist, classist, or both, is a very “internet” thing to do.

Perhaps it would be healthy if OP went outside for Christmas. A little walk in the real world, as opposed to Lemmy or Twitter or Bluesky, might help rebalance things.

Hey dude go back on your meds

The WWE??? I’ve been mostly out of the loop on these two little psychos for like five years or so honestly. Wow, that’s wild.

They both do boxing? I thought Logan did crypto instead of the physical stuff

Jesus, he fought Mayweather?

It’ll be the same story as the Tyson fight. No big KO, Paul wins on decision, Joshua gets a big payout. Guess this is Joshua getting one last monster payday before getting out with his brain intact.

Don’t pay to watch rigged fights. The world has been rewarding the Paul dynasty with money and attention for bad behaviour for over a decade now. It’s a sorry state of affairs.

That was kind of my point, too: if you’re drinking 3-4litres of water a day as a minimum, and then adding at least another 400ml+ of soda at the smallest size? Mad!

Well at least they save money on shoes!

Even the smallest size is over 400ml? How are Americans not constantly dying for a piss and feeling bloated as hell?

No idea what a tritactic is, you’re speaking waaaay above my IQ there I’m afraid 😂 I’m also not in this community through anything other than /all; the stories are boring 🤷‍♂️

Yeah, most people are decent and not spiteful or cruel. Shame that a few bad apples spoil the bunch, innit. See you on the other side 🫡

Yeah really cleared it up there bud 👍

Oh hey you edited your comment to say waaaay more, lemme give it a read

Okay, yeah it’s for sure smug partisan reporting. There is, however, some catharsis to be found in acknowledging that the people who shot holes in the hull of the boat we’re all in are also drowning. It’s arguably petty, it’s not taking the high road, but it can be satisfying.

It sounds like your complaint is basically with this entire community. Did you come here from /all, by any chance?

I don’t agree that an outlet reporting on people being hurt by their poor voting decisions (i.e. voting for an American Republican party that is openly far right and is absolutely miles from sanity out of spite and the desire to hurt others) is what’s holding back the entire US democratic party

Yeah they voted for trump

I don’t even understand this comment. Have you had a bump on the noggin recently?

Yeah, actually. If only trump voters hadn’t spitefully tried to hurt anyone who they view as “other”, they might not have ended up here. Tough shit. Better start tugging on those bootstraps.

And I get in my car and drive just a meter or so, so I’m only microdosing a DUI too which is basically not a crime
