  • Same. I’ve had several refunds. No request to return. Just full money back.

    I don’t think people recognize how often a purchase made to Amazon or some similar seller platform is actually coming straight from China; always with a 2x or more mark up.

    I’ve taken to always searching on ali to see if I can get the same thing for 1/10 the price. They don’t try to hide the shipping information like Amazon does. Where as Amazon won’t report anything until it’s in country and passed customs.

    How interesting that god in their infinite wisdom would fail to account for the design flaw. Or maybe they were lazy and just didn’t care how these beings would appear to us.

    Can an infinite being be lazy or fail to account for a design flaw? Seems less than infinitely wise to me.

    And if it’s just a test, why is this infinitely wise being running quality assurance on his creation. Shouldn’t all that infinite wisdom have precluded the need for testing?

    You seriously believe this? This isn’t a great documentary, it peddles conspiracies theories without attempting to prove any of its claims.

    The channel this is posted on is clearly of one opinion and is pushing an agenda.

    They are brought to a detention center, for a week, longer if they are showing signs of cult behavior. The video tries really hard to show this to be horrible and makes zero attempts to balance this in anyway. To me this sounds like a deprogramming center but to a tankie it is primed to accept its sinister and therefore will accept it without thinking.

    This video actually proves that not everyone can be deprogrammed. Near the end the one of the North Korean’s literally says North Korea is awesome and not a dictatorship because it says so in the constitution. Also, the lack of protesters during the famine are proof that every one believed in the leadership so much that there was no need to protest.

    That’s cult mentality. There are people who believe everything they hear and lack critical thinking skills. You might be one of them, but I am not.

    To a critical observer this only serves to show how subversive propaganda is and how it can permanently break some people’s minds.

    The fact that that exists, shows we have freedoms. Show me the anti-north Korean propaganda that North Koreans can freely access.

    That’s an unsupported assertion.

    Replacing animals with plants is definitely a reduction is diversity. We clone plants. Farmers are not going to replace their dairy farm with a butterfly garden.

    Anyway, this will be my last post on this thread.

    These downvotes are a clear indication that it’s not something this audience wants to discuss.

    I find this to be a common theme with vegans, they are only interested in discussing the benefits and refuse to consider any downsides. But that’s an entirely different topic.
