Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

"Stop moaning, I'm going to stitch up that wound...that I caused by stabbing you repeatedly.
THANK ME, THEN! TELL ME HOW GLORIOUS AND NICE I AM!!"
That's exactly what that is, bringing them $20 flowers after forcibly pimping them out for $200.
Nope, they'll still be $200. Suppliers would be idiots to lower prices, it's free normalized margin now and insurance in case Trump puts the tariff back again.
I agree with your assessment of what will happen with prices.
I should clarify that I meant he forcibly extracted a value from his victims that's at least an order of magnitude greater than anything he's offered in return, making it a symbolic gesture at best, and too little, too late.
Sad part is its effective. People will be so happy that you were there to take care of them, they will forget you were the one that hurt them in the first place.
People who abuse others that way are actually evil.
Well… part of the wound, at least… now you can have guava again.
Well it's not wage growth proportional to GDP growth, but I do like guava--probably not more than housing, medicine, education and civil rights, but we can't have everything, now can we?
