Hydrox was the original chocolate sandwich cookie. Oreo had better advertising.

We need a world war 3 pronto.

War is absolute hell.

But it seems that absence of war creates even worse hell. Man needs struggle, real problems. In absence of real problems, phony problems like 'systemic racism' and 'gender dysphoria' will be invented.

Luxury and decadence have rotted Western culture to the core.

It's not luxury and decadence. If it were, the poor wouldn't be suffering so much and our prison population wouldn't be so high.

It's the luxury and decadence of our aristocracy deciding that they will maintain power with paternalism and resentment mongering.

What is a crime for a poor man, is business as usual for the corrupt elites, like Hunter Biden the crackhead.

It's the luxury and decadence of our aristocracy deciding that they will maintain power with paternalism and resentment mongering.

I see only phony paternalism, not any that is actually dedicated to the wellbeing of the targets.

The parent defines well being. Hence why the state must never act as a family.

I do agree that war is hell. It causes untold death and destruction. However, western civilization has reached a stage where the absence of real problems has led to people inventing problems that cause more damage than anything.

Virtually all brand name foods are owned by the same company. https://www.businessinsider.com/10-companies-control-the-food-industry-2016-9 Combine this with bilderberg group and other major investors and you have basically one group that dictates terms to all food producers.

Respect? Trannies literally want to ruin the lives of people who misgender them, and I don't mean people like me who do it on purpose with the intent to annoy, they want the same outcome for people who do it by accident, with no ill intent. Where's the respect for those fools? In reality the only way we can truly respect the mental ill, is by fixing their illness, not placating it. That's true respect.

No, they want to ruin people who correctly gender them. They demand that you misgender them by calling a man a woman.

I'm not going to play along with their invented, inverted lingo.

And always remember brothers, if we win the war, the majority will never be truly on our side, they will do it out of convince and even fear like they do now. 90% of people will believe whatever is valuable to them at said time; the ideologically principled will always be a tiny minority.

I'm fond of Hydrox, myself. It has a crispier cookie, unlike Oreo that turns into powder the moment you chew it.

Pronouns were meant to function as useful shorthand and abbreviations for people speaking about other people who are currently absent. Pronouns were not meant to function as ideological affirmations or ego validation for narcissistic weirdos.

If someone demands I use a pronoun other than he or she, I will simply use his or her full name. If that is deemed to be some sort of microaggression, I will then refuse to talk about him or her at all.

Beyond that, put the gun to my fucking head and get it over with.

Why do pronouns matter? Respect!

Good to know! See, the problem is, anyone who demands I refer to him or her in some special way in third person just isn't respectable. I wouldn't piss on these people if they were on fire, so I'm not going to bother using their super special pronouns either.

Real shit tho. If people “misgender” you. It’s your fault for being trash at your transition. You either don’t know how to properly put make up on, do your hair, dress appropriately, or aren’t taking the correct hormones. I’ve met some transgender people that made me question my sexuality because they were more feminine than some women I knew.

So if you’re out here looking like gadamn Hulk Hogan with a wig on and some K Mart make up expecting me to call you “Ma’am” you can off.

They are such a big fan of Oreo (TM) cookies that they are the weight of several people. They also need several seats on a plane.

We felt the plural pronoun was appropriate.

It's gotten quite easy: if it's one of the mega corp brands (like Mondelez in this case) avoid them. Overpriced and usually unhealthy junk anyway.

Another key that I use is this, and I hope my American friends won't mind: I prefer European brands over UK/American ones, and Eastern European/non-Western brands over Western European ones.

The reason is that it becomes progressively less likely that they are infected by the woke mindvirus. Have you ever heard of Samsung having a diversity initiative? It's such a large company so perhaps there is some American branch directed by SJWs doing that, but certainly not from the company center.

There aren't many European brands left. They've all been bought by the same mega corps: Milka, Toblerone, Alpengold, Knorr, Lipton, etc It's all just Mondelez, Unilever, Nestle these days.

I used to watch food mystery box unpacking videos with stuff from all around the world. Even brands from Eastern Europe or the middle east belong to them these days.

Edit: I stick with generic super market brands for the most part. They're much cheaper and tend to avoid these retarded marketing campaigns.

That is sad to hear. Then we need better laws to break up these mega-corps. Far too much advocacy for mega-corps by conservatives has focused on "efficiency" while completely ignoring the effect that such concentrations of capital goods, power and market control have on consumer choice, freedom and democracy.

Of course, our chances of getting such a thing passed in corporate/billionaire controlled politics are approximately... none.

The left used to be against these mega corps pretty heavily because they do all kinds of shady shit. Then the corps got wise, pandered to the left's ideology and bamm: instant liberal approval! All is forgiven and forgotten.

The shallowness of their supposed principles was demonstrated when they were suddenly OK with Nike's child slavery when it pandered to black collective Munchhausen. Pay a crooked, half-black millionaire more undeserved money and they are suddenly totally fine with enslaving (non-white) kids.

It is sad to see what has become of these people. They are ideological drones, completely weaponized by corrupt elites. Pathetic. As Tim Pool says: they should now be called Rage For The Machine.

Well ... what effect has it had? Right now is still the most prosperous time to be alive for anybody in the west who chooses to participate in it by developing skills and working. When I was a kid a few decades ago there were like two brand choices for everything on grocery shelves. Just because a few mega corporations now own all of those brands doesn't really matter when there are a dozen other alternatives from local and boutique brands as well.

I'm no fan of the idea of consolidation into mega corporations, but honestly, has it actually been that bad?

Man cannot live on bread alone.

I'd rather be somewhat poorer but have freedom and autonomy, than to be controlled by giant corporation and receive a slave's stipend in return.

I hear what you mean, but there is a major issue when these corporations are too big to fail, that they are basically autonomous from their consumers, and therefore able to push their own agendas - subverting democracy and our freedom. Why is it, for example, that Gillette pushes the most absurd nonsense imaginable? Because it's too big.

Although the fact that Harry's also pushes the same thing seems to argue against that. But IIRC, we got Harry's to remove their nonsense, but not Gillette. We have more influence over smaller companies than we do over these corporate behemoths.

I'm no fan of the idea of consolidation into mega corporations, but honestly, has it actually been that bad?

Economically, it was probably more efficient, but many things are so much more important than efficiency. I think we are prosperous enough to be able to sacrifice a small part of our well-being in exchange for not being domineered over by these corporate tyrants.

How do you figure this is a response to me?

I can go to any sporting goods second hand store and walk out with a great set of gear for any outdoors activity that I want for a few hundred bucks and then kayak/rock climb/hike/whatever to my heat's content.

I can go to a Lowe's or Home Depot and get a pretty capable set of tools for woodworking for less than $500 and build a deck or remodel a house or whatever I want.

I can hop on Amazon and grab Arduino-compatible microcontrollers and sensors and motors and actuators and LEDs and whatever I can imagine for $100, download the software for free, and build any experiments I can think of.

If there's something you want to do at a hobbyist level, you an do it. It's cheap, it's accessible, it's easy. Just fucking do it. Mega corporations aren't stopping you. You don't have to live on bread alone ... though I do understand that you're not from the US so maybe whatever shit hole country you live in doesn't have these options.

Why is it, for example, that Gillette pushes the most absurd nonsense imaginable?

Yeah, it's annoying. But I don't think it's a function of Gillette and P&G being "too big to fail." Plenty of small businesses in my area are also happily flying the progressive colors, and were doing so long before the big corporations latched onto it.

I think we are prosperous enough to be able to sacrifice a small part of our well-being in exchange for not being domineered over by these corporate tyrants.

So do it? Go buy your shit from one of the smaller, slightly more expensive boutique outlets that I mentioned in my post.

Our corporatists are the ones sending shit over, so it's always woke. You can't get shit like Black Rifle Coffee in the UK, I suspect.

Our niche private sector anti-woke industries are rising slowly but surely. I can still go to farmer's markets, local businesses, and small businesses, and get non-woke products.
