It doesn't even have to benefit the minority to inconvenience the majority.

For example, two tenths of fuck-all people used the medication Sudafed to extract pseudoephedrine to make meth, but the rest of the world, me included, were required to provide id to buy the stuff from behind the pharmacy counter.

Same deal for paracetamol. Apparently a few Darwin candidates overdosed and now we can't buy bulk packs, or any above 16 tablets per box at the supermarket.

[–] real_squids@sopuli.xyz 19 points 1 month ago (3 children)

There should be like a global PSA on how painful dying from paracetamol really is

[–] watson387@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

It is also shown to cause slight cognitive decline.

[–] vk6flab@lemmy.radio 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

For normal use, or for consuming more than 4 grams a day?

[–] real_squids@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 month ago
[–] BagOfHeavyStones@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

Not a problem in the forest. The parrots eat the all.

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

cough medicine

So, fuck it just give them precursor straight and they wont have to extract it from cough medicine and make the supply lines all weird.

APAP/tylenol/paracetamol (the worst abbreviation)

But paracetamol has a really tiny gap between effective dose and dangerous dose. That one is reasonable. Meth (given lab quality) might genuinely be a safer drug. And what's it for? Pain?

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 28 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Just be the benefiting minority.

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago (4 children)

I didn't realize it was just that simple

[–] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

You clearly didn't use the small loan from your father very effectively. For shame.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 month ago

Just be rich. Geez.

[–] baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 month ago

life is like a gacha pull. you just need to reincarnate and try harder, maybe you get the coveted SSR birth.

[–] Bluefalcon@discuss.tchncs.de 16 points 1 month ago

A lot of ppl have this mindset. They will fuck over everyone to get an inch closer to their 100 mile goal.

[–] TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Or believe really hard that one day, with enough hard work and gumption, you can be one.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But the minority is shrinking and it's increasingly difficult to maintain a clear conscience while also benefiting from the bald exploitation of others.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

maintain a clear conscience

hahaha

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Yes yes, no ethical consumption under capitalism and all that, but I mean if you're really rich, it's harder to use the excuse that you you're just a pawn stuck in the game.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 7 points 1 month ago

The joke is they don't need excuses. They simply don't give a fuck. Conscience? They are psychopaths. I mean, it's not really a joke. Just a sarcastic way of saying it.

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No its pretty easy:

They're all ngmi's, only i actually have interiority (i don't but i like tge aesthetics of saying i do)

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don't understand your comment. What is a ngmi? It looks like an acronym for "not gonna make it"

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Yep, bay area nazis suck, but they're all, like, absolutely consumed by fear of their own death, so it's gonna be so fun when the revolution gets to them.

Not that i have any personal grudges.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago

Nazis. I hate these guys.

[–] imTIREDnhungryboss@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

it's almost like if we all wouldn't sell each other out and stood up for fellow human beings, not the wealthy, it seems like we could do something about it what IDK but something?

No, sorry; the living not envying the dead us communism.

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What do have against minorities?!?!?

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Being a billionaire is not an immutable trait ¯\(ツ)

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

There are several ways to destroy a billionaire. The easiest should be to just make them a millionaire.

Unfortunately, they've made that increasingly difficult, so that might not be the easiest way anymore.

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The easiest way involves a sharp edge at a high velocity

[–] watson387@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago

Or a blunt object with a sufficient amount of force.

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I’ve hear they can only stop being billionaires by being eaten.

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world -3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

the meme doesn’t say “billionaires”

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

What other minority is making the majority suffer?

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip -1 points 1 month ago

Farm workers. Pregnant women. Drag queens at the library?

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world -2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If you ask a racist, their top answer won’t be billionaires. They’re wrong, but they’d read this meme differently.

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Counterpoint: who gives a fuck about what racists think

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

yes, that was my joke

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No, but I guess that’s my lefty bias lol.

The only minority worth discriminating against though.

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Yeah I hate minorities

  • The 1%
  • Cops
  • Landlords
  • Fascists
[–] ipitco@lemmybefree.net 2 points 1 month ago

Like people smoking in public?

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago

First time?

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works -3 points 1 month ago

Damn, seeing people suffer feels as good to you as a smoke when you really need one?
