'carbon footprint'

I feel like if people try their best to think before they buy its all I can expect. I hate Amazon and yet I still order from them from time to time for things I need but cant carry here.

Yeah or even just the "big pharma is bad so you should consider Not Taking Medication" takes

bruh. like yes I know that I am funding big evil companies but like ... Not living isnt really an option ? We have to work with what is given and vote with our wallets when we can but I would never try to take quality of life away from somebody just because they need stuff from big corps smh.

And it's not like buying things from anywhere else is much better.

Walmart, Target, etc all destroy local businesses and abuse the hell out of workers and sell the same cheap plastic shit.

I try to do farmers market for groceries and just buy less in general.

I can see now why anything with “intelligence” in the name might feel threatening to you

MIT study just found that using ChatGPT absolutely wrecks your brain, complete with MRIs of the brains of groups who wrote essays themselves, with only access to a Google search engine, and with access to ChatGPT.

Obviously you don’t understand anything since intelligence is a stat that’s only useful to Wizards and Artificers (and a few subclasses ig)

I am neither, I am a warlock with my patron as the pretty pink monster can.

Not the same but I’m reminded of that zine author who said trans people should go off HRT to not support imperialist pharma companies or some shit like that

evelynfaye05.bsky.social•3 days ago

p sure that's what she's referencing

we need to melt the diabetics, for communism :)

burning off a diabetic person’s blood as fuel instead of all that icky coal and gas

The whole concept of "Big Pharma" is a meme anyways. It's a valid antipsych argument that, like all other such arguments, got sent thru a game of telephone until it was unhinged. It's also the basis for the narrative of trans HRT being "pushed" by some unspecified boogeyman
