CEO fell off a cliff with his Segway and died

A strawman

Why is Chase spending money to piss off customers on Xitter?

The problem is the tone of the message. Chase isn’t giving solid financial advice, here. They’re creating a strawman of “bad with money”

People know that. They’re broke, not dumb

They’re covering for systemic political issues by blaming it on the individual, essentially covering for poverty wages and other problems related to income distribution. I don’t know why they do this, either. But that’s why this rubs many people the wrong way.

People don’t get into trouble because of avocado toast but depressed wages, soaring house prices, medical costs, etcetera. What the hell are people supposed to do if the minimum spending to survive is already too much for their meager income?

Stalling tactic from day 1. “We are doing humanitarian aid, look!” 🙄

At the time, it wasn’t this widely regarded as a power grab by conservative politicians in the Supreme Court. Not saying it wasn’t, but it was not seen as such. It was nowhere near as brazen as what we’re seeing today. Confidence was still quite high at the time or at least it returned quickly.

Absolutely. I never cared for his political stuff. Get that shit out of here. Just geek out on historic stuff, but please no more misogynist social darwinist garbage…

What are the actual questions?

Accepted isn’t the right word. I think consumers “voting with their feet” just isn’t that relevant when it comes to these issues. This model of thinking works when it’s about the product offering. Bad product? Too expensive? Demand dwindles.

But the issue doesn’t directly impact the product offering, consumers won’t “vote with their feet” in significant numbers. Worker exploitation? People will still buy cheaper clothes. Oil money dictatorships? Cheap luxury airlines. Privacy invasion? But all my friends are on there. I could go on.

The self-correcting market model is flawed. For these issues, strong government intervention is needed. It’s possible that a competitor comes along and they’re able to capture the market, but that will only happen with a superior product offering. But not because of different TOS or whatever people don’t consider part of what they’re buying.

Not sure, I heard they’re actually orcs

All of Israel is stolen land. They’re stealing even more as we speak.

To answer your question: They will and they have outright killed thousands, tens of thousands of Palestinians. They destroyed schools, hospital, cemeteries, media offices, homes. They are not letting in food in the country, causing a goddamn famine. Everybody has seen it. Everybody knows it’s happening.

You can sod right off if you want a specific number of summary executions before it ‘counts’ as a genocide. Absolutely abhorrent behavior. I’m blocking your ass right now. Bye.

“their country”

🤔

Now you’re at genocide denial. I’m done. Fuck that

And then the occupation continues. How does that solve anything? There will be another resistance group, of course. Israel already was a pain in the ass for Palestinians before October 7th. They don’t see going back to that situation as meaningful progress.

Nothing about your stance is pragmatic. It doesn’t even make logical sense. It’s cowardice to give in and the rest of the world can go back to ignoring suffering of the Palestinians. Israel is genociding Palestinians and you’re here blaming Hamas??

What about national and international pressure on the Netanyahu government?

lol All you’ve done is defend Israel here

“it’s simple, Hamas just has to surrender” is not a peace plan

I don’t believe their words. Stop fighting

Edit: I see OP supports Israel. After all that’s become clear about their genocide.

Because sticking up for Palestine while constantly getting smeared as a terrorist sympathizer and an antisemite… is taking the easy road?
