What does his affair have to do with selling GPUs to China? (Genuine question, I’m out of the loop.)

I’m sure employers would like literal slaves too but that’s not much of an argument is it

I think youre just looking at too much porn online. Go to a city like Vancouver where like 30% of the population is wasain and you’ll see people use the term descriptively all the time and it’s not a slur.

Why do you assume that he would intentionally sabatoge his company in the most embarrassing way possible?

Interesting context thanks

Canadians also simply won’t do the jobs these people will for any amount of money.

That’s a bit of a stretch (no teenagers want to work in fast food?) Maybe not for the same wages but that’s the point. Temporary foreign workers suppress natural wage growth

High cost of living where fresh produce and takeaway coffee becomes unaffordable for most or we have temporary workers.

Part the reason we have a high cost of living is because wage growth has been suppressed by policies like these. See the above point

what’s ricin and how does it relate to castor oil?

Petroleum sounds worse than plastic lol (I know it’s probably fine)

Well I hope you’re right and people move offline

If the liberals lose the next election it will be because of this issue

I’m sure industrial strength goo would not flake if you designed it for that purpose but I’m not sure if the pack of gum I bought for a few dollars in a vending machine would be of the same quality

I have a hard time believing that chewing a piece of plastic for thirty minutes would not cause you to ingest microplastics.

My students are in grade eight and can barely read Dr. Seuss. It’s not a “kids these days” things it’s a crisis

Another commenter on here was recommending chewing on soft wood. Of course you’d want to make sure it’s not treated first. Tree branches from certain trees would be more what they are talking about.

Yes, I don’t disagree, but one of the main reasons why plastics are bad for you is that they don’t break down, but natural materials seem to break down just fine generally speaking

What wee brushes are you talking about?

What’s pitch?

If you’re out hiking and forage for spruce/pine resin directly from the source: it’s still plastic.

There’s such a thing as naturally occurring plastic? I’m sure that’s not as bad for you though, right?

As far as an alternative goes for minty breath: nothing stops you from cutting out the middleman and chewing on mint leaves directly.

That’s an interesting idea.

Gatekeeping only helps keep the big tech oligarchs strong. If we want to lessen big techs influence we will need to be more welcoming here.

Now that’s a hot take
