  • Idk if it’s really helpful to the convo but As someone who quit smoking less than a year ago after 10+ years I wanna say raising the price won’t help people not smoke. The amount of money I threw at my smokes was just someothing I always budgeted in and it just kinda fucks over poor people who are gonna smoke no matter what. I don’t think this full ban is really gonna do much for already existing smokers. Of course if the cost of selling cigarettes was more than the profit we could get somewhere but at the end of the day every industry would benefit from ditching profit based economics. Thats why I’m a leftist I guess





  • I mean, While trying not to be a Reddit atheist here, if there is a Christian god there’s no way they aren’t a fascist god. Lmao. Look at the state of the world! It’s the classic “either God is not omnipotent or is malevolent”. With a god that allows this kind of untold suffering, possibly even creates it according to these Christians on earth, why would you even need Satan ? Would Satan also not be a good angel for, you know, dealing with every single bad person that’s ever existed for all of eternity? Idk I went to church way too much growing up

    As someone who loves smokin me some weed is there any info i could read on ussr relationship with growing/using cannabis? I know China doesn’t really take too kindly to it, which sucks, I hate that any country will let you get drunk off your ass and choke down cigarettes but will criminalize weed. Not shame to China I’m a #1 Stan in just curious, I’d be curious to know more about weed & China too


  • I’m not crazy brushed up on my fallout lore but I know that the general timeline is the exact same as the real world but the fallout universe splits when (in real life) the microchip was invented, instead of that (in the fallout universe) they focused on atomic nuclear energy instead of making computers smaller. I think it’s generally the same even after as far as presidents go, there are mentions of Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, etc. but it might be similar to the Elvis case in universe where there’s not much information left on these people so it’s hard to learn about and the average person in the wasteland probably barley understands what a president is

    Walmart has cheap shit. I hate going to Walmart but I like buying cheap shit to feed myself with. Yes it’s low quality, and yes I actually kinda hate going in there. It’s too fucking big, corporate sanitized all white floors and roof, I hate that stupid fucking Walmart radio station they have, I could go on all day. I would love if Walmart as a corporation fell today. In fact I hope it does. I hope they all do one by one slowly and miraculously so we (the people) can pick up the pieces and use the resources and networks they have to feed people and stop relying on imperialism abroad altogether. Is that a good enough answer or are u just gonna whine more and call someone a tankie?
