  • I just hit no tip and say thanks! And walk out. It’s not difficult.

    What are they going to do? Make a scene? I pray they would.

    I’m sorry, you tell me what fucking service I’m tipping you for? Do you tip your plumber? Do you tip the attendant at a roller coaster at a theme park? Do you tip front desk attendant at a hotel? No…pray tell, why do you think you need a tip for pouring me two-hour old hot bean water? Did you grind it by hand at my request? Did you personally see to it that I received only the very best beans at ye Starbucks roasteries? No? Then fuck off.










  • I’m not going to say they’re not real or not sentient. But I will absolutely say that they are selfish. They lack the empathy required to understand how things will affect others. They lack the willingness to sacrifice for the greater good. They lack the humility required to understand that they could be wrong, and the critical reasoning required to change their views in the face of new evidence.

    Almost every conservative I’ve ever met is either extremely rich or lives in microcosm. Hell, I’ve got extended family that have never travelled outside of their hometown and anything foreign or different to them is either ridiculed or shunned.

    They want a social hierarchy, and they want their place in it preserved. God forbid people get equitable standing.


  • In conjunction with this, I fully believe that Big Capital are the ones that are absolutely pushing the abortion bans, by proxy of “religion”. Sure, there’s niche groups that support it, but that money is coming from SIGNIFICANTLY RICH people pushing that shit through.

    They want uneducated people. They absolutely want an uneducated labor class as people are cheap.



  • I think that’s sort of the point. Sort of a two pronged approach…

    On one hand…The US Oligarchs are running out of cheap labor. This is literally their solution. Force a ban on abortions and contraceptives and you’ll see a spike of pregnancies, the unwanted children will hinder their unready families from better opportunities, and pretty much force them to work lower paid and hourly positions.

    On the other hand, by forcing more US citizens to have kids, you’ll have cheap labor, allowing you to ban “illegal immigrants”.
