First it was: "The job market is hot."

Now it is: "Okay, the job market isn't actually hot, but you're secure in your current job."

Soon I'm sure it'll be: "Another once-in-a-lifetime economic event has occurred and no one is safe."

It could be argued that Israel is free to unleash their campaign of genocide because the people in Israel do not experience the horrors themselves. There is no pressure to reach an agreement. Bringing the hostages back has been the only rallying cry by Israelis, but other than that, actually ending the genocide doesn't have much support.

It's similar to how so many consumer goods are produced through the use of slavery. That distance and lack of visibility mean there is little pressure from consumers to stop those practices.

Really? I've been an adult for quite a while and I always look forward to lunch (all meals, actually). Plenty of quick, simple, and appealing meals to make.

There are essentially infinite choices for entertainment these days. Hypothetically, even if they somehow stopped 100% of piracy, I still wouldn't pay for their overpriced slop.
