New Study Finds Eating Eggs May Not Increase Cholesterol Levels
  • Seems like many dieticians still promote diets based purely on the lipid hypothesis, so I support your position in theory, in practice it doesn't always seem quite that simple.

  • People don't become rich by being ethical. Not blaming you for not being aware, but everyone needs to realize that trusting rich people is a bad idea.

    U.S. signs off on more bombs, warplanes for Israel
  • I'm not one to defend Genocide Joe, but don't think for a minute that someone else (or even Joe himself) couldn't be worse. Our policy could be way worse. I haven't yet decided whether I can stomach voting for Biden in the absence of a meaningful alternative, but I won't pretend that there aren't more hellish roads to tread here.

    Why do they say "there's no true Left in the US"?
  • First off, Democrats are not leftists - this is literally capitalism in action, and supporting a moderate right wing party over an extremist right wing party makes sense for many businesses. Second, those claims all come from an entirely biased source - the Media Research Center is a partisan organization with an axe to grind. Actual studies by researchers don't show the same bias.

    All you're doing here is exposing how propagandized you are.

    Also, if Democrats were anywhere remotely close to being marxists, I would actually support them. Anyone claiming that Democrats are leftist marxists doesn't legitimately understand any of the words they are using.

    Why do they say "there's no true Left in the US"?
  • A gesture is meaningless. Advocacy is action and is intended to generate meaningful change. A corporation does everything for money. The only actual advocacy a corporation like Google is doing is to benefit its bottom line. Y'all look at giant corporate entities who provide some meaningless lip service to a marginalized community and think that means they are on the side of the left? That's some truly delusional pea-brained shit right there. If you'd quit getting your panties in a wad about this dumb-ass culture war crap, you'd realize that class solidarity is the only meaningful way any of us can actually change society for the better, but all the right wing chucklefucks are too busy trying to punish some group or another for some trumped up crusade created by rich dudes to keep y'all busy. Pea-brained shit.

    Why do they say "there's no true Left in the US"?
  • Nothing Google does or supports is actually a leftist anything. You're making the same mistake all Americans make - buying into the propaganda that left/right is about social permissiveness. It's actually an economic spectrum, and every meaningful company or organization is either far right, or extreme right.

  • California, New York and DC are the only places with laws that explicitly cite firing for political opinion. There are no federal laws protecting people from employers who want to fire someone for that. You'd have to make a case that you were ACTUALLY fired for being part of a protected class.
