Some of society's problems that concern you?

Government has decided to ban all vape products because of kids using them. Good job fucktards of both wings you have all together decided that ex smokers to go back to cancer sticks. Not all will go back but majority will I feel.

Chrissst, what the hell? The US must be on a major imperialist bent again lately. First there was that flimsy attempt at justifying war over a drone shootdown (which was rightly lambasted), but they just straight up assassinated someone equivalent to the Secretary of Defense.

This won't lead to war, but it's one hell of an escalation. I wish I didn't live in the empire.

Little to no surprise from one of the most hostile nations on earth >_>

I'd be very surprised if the tobacco industry didn't have a hand in this. Why do you think other drugs are still illegal?

 Seeing how the tobacco company owns majority of vape products I doubt. It's over parents and people out of touch that wanted the ban. Why do kids ruin everything >:0

I really hope enough people get angry about it. Then again, after how the fascists sold the War on Terror™, I doubt it. >_<'

That recent shootdown of a Ukrainian jetliner in Iran seems... rather suspect, if we're being honest. Airliners, sadly, can go down for a multitude of different reasons, often related to cost-cutting measures, maintenance negligence, or even pure pilot incompetence. I doubt the Iranian military would accidentally down an aircraft proceeding in a straight line from their own airport, but we'll see.

It's unfortunately very likely that it was shot down. Airliners don't just disappear from radar mid-flight. Everyone is quick to blame Iran, but for that specifically I don't know of any evidence for, though it is somewhat likely.

Twitter's probably ruined me, but I feel like I'm being pulled into this animosity that's building up between supporters of candidates. It feels far too easy and it's unsettling.

Yeah, I always feel super burnt out after an election season

Ahh, yeah. Just like how Trump's gonna BUILD THE WALL, and MAKE MEXICO PAY FOR IT!

Cripes. Sometimes I wonder if we really have gotten dumber as a species. It's like the average conservative exists in this fantasyland where everything their country does is right, and every immigrant, petty criminal, or poor person is the literal scum of the earth.

I can't believe the extent to which shortages are crippling the logistics infrastructure of our country... I wanted to order a Chromax kit for the NH-D15, and while I would've enjoyed next-day delivery just a week ago, I've now got to wait a whole week since everyone's in a panic to hoard crap. You know, we joked about Venezuelans not being able to buy toilet paper, but in an actual socialist country (not Venezuela) this wouldn't happen. -_-

Now there's talk of another global recession, all because of a virus with less than a quarter of a million cases. Cripes.

Wow~ Get a load of this one trying to inflate her post count!

You've been quite clearly spoiled by next-day delivery ^_^'

Though in general, I think that the more socialist countries have done a better job of containing the virus, but then again so have Japan and SK, so maybe it isn't all that?

The UK's approach has been really quite bizarre though. Such as telling people to not go out to pubs, restaurants, etc., but without forcing the shutdown of public places, causing them to lose money.
