My experience is completely different. People that shout during the meetings are usually the same people that don't listen to other people enough to understand the problem and continue to promote their idea of "corrections" no matter the facts.
What's wrong with this community?
You wouldn't consider gender discrimination against women a bad thing?
Why don't you apply the same logic to the parent's comment, and consider it a good thing that he has to work harder to get the job he wants? Probably the extra fight will teach him to appreciate the job even more. Or something.
Some people seem to be really mad about some other people voicing their opinion.
"Fake it til you make it" works because most prejudices are kept alive because of conformation bias and herd mentality.
I'm not really sure which right, but probably no.
> How about things that other societies have abolished already, like the death penalty or the world's biggest incarceration rate (predominantly on blacks)?
Yes, let's play oppression olympics.
This is not actually true. Marriage is a very very old concept.
I really don't see anything to be mad about.
That's not how it works. Cigarette tax doesn't go directly to the healthcare budget. At least in most countries.
> Smoking is a luxury.
And a very strong addiction.
I'm just guessing here but it might be more expensive to make smaller batches with different models the to just make one.
