Yeah, I figured as much. See, with a topic like that I can totally get on board with the libs. That's such an outrageous waste of good food that other people don't have. Still, I'm sure that's occured to people before so there's probably a litany of reasons why it's just not practical to somehow repurpose all that food so they just flush it down the shitter.

Somebody once told me grocerie stores will throw away food and cover in bleach or something so that the homeless don't dig through their dumpsters. That seems so criminal I have a hard time believing it's actually true.

Progressives hating those with wealth out of some supposed concern for the poor never makes sense to me. If poor people are no longer poor, and are able to start a business that ends up being successful, they are now an evil rich person. Exactly how much money do you have to make to transition from noble poor to evil rich guy? There's no consistency to who or what they claim to oppose. Elon Musk is doing more for humanity than an entire generation combined and all Elizabeth Warren can do is bitch about how much money he has. Like maybe if anyone earned it, he did? It's just pure envy and jealousy masquerading as concern for the poor.

Ya my cousin who used to work at a Village Inn told me they were instructed to pour paint over the food before they threw it out to discourage dumpster diving

And my favorite part of my job when I used to work at Sports Authority as an 18 year old was when I was instructed to throw out old models of various things we could no longer sell (didn’t even have a SKU# in the computer anymore). My manager would tell me “be sure to break it all first”. So I would be getting paid to tomahawk throw equipment into the back wall outside as hard as I could. It was then that I learned how high you need to heave a bowling ball in the air to get it to break, and what they look like on the inside (kind of like concrete if I remember right)

Nowadays I think a lot of restaurants and grocers have deals with food banks to donate old food. But not sure, havent talked to anyone in the food biz about it for a while

And yeah, personal wealth is a problem only when it’s not the champagne socialists like Hasan Piker, who came under some heat for buying a multi-million dollar home in LA despite being a socialist. He said that’s just what homes in LA cost. He doesn’t have to live in LA, and he doesn’t have to live way beyond a comfortable living, he chooses to just like all the greedy capitalists he hates. Maybe he does donate to the less fortunate but I highly doubt it

Haha oh guaranteed he doesn't. Hasan sucks. Even if he does, it would be the only good thing he's ever done. Dude used to be a male model and has all the intellect you'd expect of one. Total ignoramus with a smug, self-assured sense of moral superiority as he acts completely awful in his day to day life, like most annoying progressives do. Yeah I don't like him.

If I was starving, I’d be willing to eat just about anything. And I eat all the time, which is why I warn hiking buddies that if we get lost in the woods…after about 3 or so hours we’re going to need to start having some difficult conservations. Mostly me asking ok who here is feeling the most tired and sick and close to death

I could tots eat a person if I had to. You start at the butt, that’s where all the meat is. I saw the movie Alive, I know how it’s done

Jibartik 01-09-2022 09:49 PM

these people are not starving, they dont want to use the 3 sea shells (take the vax)

Fine for “social costs” and keeping legal fees down, not fine for the families watching their loved ones slowly kill themselves in front of them

You didnt read it, at all. The whole thing is right there. You cant treat someone for drug addiction while they are in prison. You cant even treat someone unless they want to be treated. Thats the point, drug use went down. Addicts got treatment because they didnt have to fear authorities. Less people die because they can go get their shit tested, too. Then get themselves tested. You dont see the good in it because you were told not to. I understand, the propaganda is strong. Americas approach to the "war" on its own people i mean "drugs" cant be wrong. We need tanks in the streets for these dope dealers! lol
