Their prison system marred by persistent human-rights violations, our prison system with constitutionally enshrined slavery - wait, I don’t think I did it right

Lmao, your first comment under this account and it’s vote apologia for the great genocider. Like everyone else will explain more better, both sides will take your rights away, and they’ll have a great time doing it.

Yeah, be quiet you whiners, it can always get worse.

They should just leave them in Japanese then

I’m reminded of the slowly boiling frog analogy.

this isn’t a competition of ideas, it’s a competition of engagement.

Boy if that don’t succinctly describe the democrats.

That was my worst nightmare, I'm glad all you lost was a shoe.

I watched videos of deadly escalator incidents as a kid on the internet and I won’t go anywhere near them both then and now as I’ve done more research on them as an adult. That kid is right to be anxious about these in my opinion.

They typically don’t have any sort of automatic cutoff because the way they operate is a fixed speed at variable loads. So if a foreign object gets sucked into the machinery it will pass that foreign object through without a hiccup. The guards in place to prevent the intrusion of foreign objects are inadequate and the addition of a manual emergency cutoff is not adequate either.

The foam type of shoes, like crocs or those foam soled Nike’s for example, are very easy to get caught in the machinery when, for instance, you try and “polish” your shoes against the brushes on the side. Typically children wear those shoes, typically children don’t have the foresight to think that’s a bad idea, and the data shows that typically it’s children involved in fatal escalator incidents. It’s a bad design, ban escalators, turn them all into stairs.

These problems get worse when escalators are not properly maintained, and it’s expensive to maintain escalators properly. They will only get more unsafe with time as the metaphorical copper continues getting ripped out of the walls of our economy and maintenance budgets collapse.

And unless you’re a vegan who votes in every election and doesn’t own a car, you’re probably not so innocent either. My pity is reserved for the children and animals who will inherit this poisoned world — the only creatures who are genuinely blameless.

Purity Politics? What a poisoned world view.

If Biden drone strikes Clarence Thomas as an official act to save OSHA and protect lives I still won’t vote for him, but that’s a good start.
