  • As an American I never really liked the holiday, (I agree patriotism sucks) but I wouldn’t say it’s that it really feels creepy other than the few people who really go over the top with it. Most people just use it as an excuse to barbeque and watch / light off fireworks (which I’m just personally not into)

    Now for some real North Korea shit, look up videos of the “pledge of allegiance“ in schools. I was always the only one not doing it, but it wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized how fucked up it is. Creepy as hell.



  • Not in a relationship, but hypothetically yes, absolutely. I’d try go exert as much power as I could to make sure their rule is benevolent and try to convince them to create strong institutions that would become democratic after our deaths.

    Now if my dictator gf started committing atrocities, I’d leave ASAP if I could do so safely. But I don’t think I would ever be dating the sort of person who would use that sort of power for evil.










  • I agree with your general message (The best substitute is no substitute), but “highly processed” is a really misleading term. Vegan meat substitutes are still fairly healthy compared to actual meat. The reason most ‘processed food’ is bad for you is because it’s nutritionally poor, and has high salt, sugar, preservatives, artificial dyes, etc.

    As a side note: while vegan cheese is not very good, I think oat milk is significantly better than cow’s milk.
