This content occurs in the Bible, should it also be banned from sale?

What about old plays that contain similar content?

What about art that contains it?

The point is that visa and mastercard should not be policing it, if is legal to own you should be allowed to buy it.

Our court systems are setup to require "beyond reasonable doubt" but sexual assault cases struggle to meet that threshold anytime there is even a little bit of grey area, then they also struggle on the defendants side when it comes to reputational loss.

America is a joke.

The rest of the world is actively rejecting your bullshit, and you are going to be worse off for it.

An outgoing president needing to pardon his family pre-emptively because the incoming president is threatening them is well along the path to fascism.

Good job electing Trump you fucking morons. I hope that the consequences of your own actions hurt you more than they hurt the rest of the world.

Just to be clear, they had not actually started harvesting anything.

The nurses and doctors noticed as he was wheeled into the operating room and called it off, a bunch of them ended up in therapy over the situation.

Someone fucked up by declaring him brain dead clearly. He does however have significant brain damage from the drug overdose that initiated the whole situation.

This kind of bullshit needs a law to be honest.

Politicians should need direct approval before using copyright music in campaigns.

Just pointing out that Musk is an immigrant.

Born in South Africa, immigrated to Canada to avoid military service, then used Canadian citizenship to apply for and obtain US citizenship.

"no proof of an illicit deal"

The money IS the proof of the illicit deal, they gave him money when there was no legal or reasonable reason to give him money.

"We wanted to just give away money" isn't a legal reason for anyone who isn't recording for a you tube channel at this point.

Fun fact, costed is a word but has a slightly different meaning than the way you have used it.

Costed means to get the details on the cost of something complex. Like "I costed the three projects and the last one is cheapest"

You tried to use it as the past tense of cost, but the past tense of cost is also just cost.

The one thing even Americans who have health insurance don't realize about single payer healthcare systems, is that we don't worry about it.

We don't consider it when switching jobs, we don't think about it when we're sick, we don't worry about medical bills.... we just go to the doctor/hospital, and worry about getting better or dealing with the work implications of taking time off.

The weight for that piece simply doesn't rest on our shoulders or minds at all.

You've been tricked and brainwashed you into thinking what you have is normal, and it's disturbing how many of you think it's a reasonable way to continue.
