Nah, I understand my place in the world and nobody suits me fine, I was just trying to be cordial. I must say, you are quite proficient in ad hominem. I even forget the original discussion, was it taxes? In any case, given your predilection for underming lack of discussion with petty insults, might I suggest you take a look at a website called Reddit? I think you’d fit in there.
That’s all well and good, still a nobody though. Cheers.
That’s a valid point. I got a buddy with a political science degree, so technically learned in this subject, and that guy is fuckin clueless.
From one nobody to another, cheers to the weightless.
Yes, that’s all I took away from what you said.
Which is also ridiculous, we should listen to those who know more.
I’m not saying we don’t listen to people, or upend all social contracts. I merely suggest we gravitate to the learned and educated for their informed opinions, not whoever this pop sensation is.
I disagree, “person tells singer they should stick to singing” seems pretty middle of the road as far as takes go.
At least you agree our opinions should carry the same weight.
You missed the point, no one should care. Celebrity worship is rampant and goes too far. Her being famous enough that her approach to politics being newsworthy is a problem. The relationship between entertainer and entertainee should cease when the last track on the album ends. Her being popular doesn’t qualify her to speak on these subjects. It’s the same hole that Trump crawled out of.
I fail to see a reason why I should give a single fuck about what this person thinks about any subject, including music. Get back in the recording booth, and make your little songs. Your opinions are irrelevant.

If anything, one should absolutely take care of mundane tasks with downtime between productive tasks. If their workflow allows for short breaks, it doesn’t make a difference to the employer if nothing is done or an unrelated task is done.
They pay people to complete tasks for their corporation. They don’t own the worker’s bodies or minds due to the virtue of providing a paycheck.
This concept of whole ownership of people really is baked into US social consciousness.

Those in power will never allow those without to simply vote their way out of the traps. Whoever gets voted in later this year will simply be another head of the same monster.
However, the first commenter has merit. We’re stuck in this awful system and need to do our best to set ourselves up for success.
Unfortunately, luck plays such a huge part. Sacrifice and save and struggle to put away even a small amount, and one drunk driver can drain your account. No fault of your own, and now you’re on the brink of homelessness.
The answer is in no way at the ballot box.
Since mods removed my comment but failed to elaborate why, I’m going to repost it.
Brings to mind the dichotomy of the Russian and Israeli invasions. Ivans blow up a school, and it’s a warcrime. Schlomos blow up a school, and it’s due to their inherent right to self defense.
The comment may not be entirely related to the article directly, but why have a world news community if not for discussing world events?
Didn’t they decline to endorse any presidential candidate?
Interesting how this poll comes out at the same time as all these articles saying how the Teamsters Union has broken years of precident by not officially endorsing a presidential candidate.

Ah, I see your confusion. Advocating for the dismissal of her opinion on grounds of her profession is not a slight on her character. I’m sure she’s a very nice girl and a talented musician.
You see, ad hominem is an attack on someone’s character to distract from the lack of merit in one’s argument. I never slighted her as a person, ergo no ad hominem.
Now if I said she was stupid or ugly or talentless, therefore no one should listen to her, that would constitute an attack on her.
I hope this clears things up.
