Are you really surprised, considering how much our education system gets hijacked by right-wing legislation?

I'm uncomfortable with Meta being involved

Not surprising in the least. I was part of an Amazon product review program, but I stopped participating after seeing multiple posts for pet treats that contained ingredients that are harmful to dogs. Reporting the listings was a nightmare, and they were never taken down.

Fuck you, Amazon.

If the idea of consulting a list and calling ahead to a restaurant is too hefty of a concept for you to hold onto, then yes I can see why there's going to be a disconnect. Let's just go our separate ways, and I feel confident that eventually you'll get there.

hasn’t at least had a McDonald’s shake or something

What they've done in the past is irrelevant. If they choose to forgo Nestle products from this day forward, then it is possible.

Are you legally mandated to go shop at the grocery store? No?

I never argued that one was legally mandated to shop at a grocery store. Whether one shops at a grocery store or not, one can consult a list and therefore not buy Nestle products. This is quite simple.

Then why would you posit that response?

Just as an example of how it is possible not to buy certain products, regardless of how ubiquitous they are.

Oh sorry I didn't realize we are legally mandated to eat out at places that use Nestle products, my bad.

The statement that it's impossible is entirely wrong.

This whole thread is weird. I think it's hilarious how people are arguing with you, saying it's impossible and then linking sites that list every brand owned by Nestlé. You'd think it would occur to them that if one is able to consult a list, that makes it possible to avoid Nestlé products, since one can merely consult the list.

I think there are some synapses not firing here 😅

I'd gladly live in one of those apartments in the first picture if it meant that everyone could have a home

Funny how the people who want to harm the oil companies are "terrorists," but the people literally destroying the earth are not

Exactly. People who fat shame don't actually want people to improve -- they just want a target for their hate. I see no reason to disparage the people in the picture, nor to think they won't properly care for their dog.

I don't think fat shaming should be allowed here.

"I'm not anti-homeless, I just [anti-homeless horseshit]"

Is this a novelty account? lmao

A. This leads to politeness fetishists and tone policing. If someone says something offensive like "we should remove LGBT+ books from schools," I'd rather shoot myself than speak nicely to that person.

B. This has not been my experience with my fellow Americans at all. I even saw a mod from lemmy.world post mod-flaired horseshit in their politics community about how "The US is not a racist country." Fuck that.
