No...all these leftists are complaining that conservatives have taken their rights away.....and I'm trying to figure out what rights have been lost.

Threads on this article have mentioned lost rights....

Your Fox talking points are easily disputed with raw data.

I don't need. "Talking points" from anyone to know from personal experience that my health care costs skyrocketed starting from ACA times.....my bank statements show that...

All my friends I talk with...saw their costs rise too.

Or, hear me out, we fire 80% of our workforce, degrade quality, and make the remaining 20% work 10 hours a day.
ha ha, only serious

Can you name a single Democratic politician who has called for a similar action of name and shame and fire?

Maxine Waters....a treasure trove of "fun" speeches and statements of the like...

Exactly what rights have been taken away....?

ACA enabled access to medical care if you needed it. I may oversimplify a number of things but that's how I see it.

ACA did succeed in making medical care MUCH more expensive for everyone....so, hey, success there!!

Let us not make light of the fact that the fucking Vice President just today has said "no unity" and basically siccing people against their perceived enemies to get people fired. The VP has sanctioned cancel culture.

Hello Pot....Kettle....Kettle....Pot.

And with this....it isn't the govt supports sing speech , it is repercussions in the private sector ....which the liberals cheered in the past recent years.

And this time around, the govt isn't forcing social media to cancel people or deplatform them either...the Dems were caught red handed doing that.

They're happy you won't come back anyway....even though the reality is that you probably will. Or small scale boycotts in general.

Tell that to Bud Light....

I mean if they're calling by phone, they won't get me...I do not answer any phone calls I do not recognize (ie on my contacts list).

I figure if it is important enough, they'll leave me a voicemail.

And even if they get through, with phone or email, I don't answer questions to unsolicited contacts from people, as that I have NO idea who they really are or what they want.

I assume most every call or email is a scam unless they prove otherwise.

I kinda figured anyone today with much common sense or even slight sense of privacy and personal security pretty much did the same.

I've instructed my aging parents to do the same thing....too many old people getting swindled.

Yup. They ARE the bots. And the only scalpers anymore. All others have been frozen out of the market.

It's okay if you live in an area where tips are decent, or if you are an attractive young woman/twink, but generally speaking having to rely on tips to earn a decent amount is discriminatory and works greatly in the employer's favour.

I worked in smallish cities in the southeast of the US...so, no major tipping capitals....and I"m an average looking guy I guess....

I found that a sense of humors and being outgoing and friendly did more than anything for tips...

Hell, there were a couple of times I dropped a whole large tray of food....everything..gone....and well, I just made a joke and everyone laughed...etc.

I ended up making a HUGE tip on that one....

I did well as well as my co-workers...and there was nothing discriminatory about it.

I lug my laptop to work 3 days a week, and use 2 of its ports (dock, portable display).

I don't know what type of laptop you use, or how heavy it is, but I have a piece of advice for you that fits no matter what your laptop is like: if your laptop came with a case, don't ever use it. That's because the type of case you get when you buy one looks exactly like what it is, and they're all thief magnets. Get something that looks like a brief case, or even better, a backpack. Nobody's going to consider a backpack worth stealing, even if it's hanging from your hand and if you live or work in an area with lots of thieves, this simple trick can save you lots of time and money replacing things you need to do your job.

In my day, to plug in a mouse: We took the box apart, installed a proprietary bus card, and then tried to figure out non-conflicting spots for the I/O and IRQ jumpers. Then we typed a bunch of gibberish into AUTOEXEC.BAT. And we liked it!

There is no difference between gravity and acceleration.

I'm not a physicist, and I don't know if a physicist would agree with you completely. I do know, however, that any effect that you can create with acceleration you can also create with gravity, and vice versa.

Don't see too many cars on walking paths and sidewalks. The number of e-bikes on walking paths and sidewalks has skyrocketed. It's almost as if someone decided being a pedestrian is a sinful activity, and that every walkway must now be infested with morons on wheels.

Then let me get started on mobility scooters.
