How is that even possible?

“Churned customers?”

Totally fair and reasonable

Most of us don’t read classics anymore. I always hated Moby Dick; it sucks so bad.

I know what little I know from watching nature documentaries and I think it’s the same with other Americans. Most of us never get to see an actual whale in our lives, let alone eat any.

Here’s the problem: everyone is fundamentally misinterpreting free speech. It doesn’t mean what people think it does: it’s not about stopping government oppression, it’s about enforcing fundamental respect for human beings, which means hate speech is banned regardless – because bigotry and hate speech by its nature censors other human beings, because it creates an environment where people are discredited and shunned by their peers for stupid reasons, denying them their right to be respected and heard. Hate speech isn’t speech, it’s censorship, and needs to be treated as a censoring act and not as speech since it’s not speech, it’s an action done with intent.

When people adopt that definition of free speech, we can go back to having our cake and eating it too and we’ll start to get back on the right path.

Because the proletariat won’t band together, organize and break free from the fascist nightmare we’ve consigned ourselves to.

Huh. I must confess, as a American I know all of jack and shit about whaling and such given we don’t eat whale like that over here. Not even our ruling class eats whale.

…What does whale taste like?

I hope like hell no one actually listens to it

I’m gonna throw this out there: if we’re gonna have freedom of speech, it has to include advocating for the violent overthrow of the government.

The people are supposed to be in control, not the government and if the people have the rhetorical means to take their government down taken away in such a manner, they’re not in control anymore. And we see where that kind of thinking leads us

I’m not asserting anything, I’m asking you a question. I have no skin in this game or underlying point; I’m asking you because you claim you’re from the area and I want to know more. So:

That’s really the only kind of whale you eat? What about the other kinds you hunt, or used to hunt?

What about the other ones?

AI generated pictures suck

Whales are endangered for the most part
