But all conventional wisdom holds that new cars are a waste of money because you're paying an extra 20% for the pleasure of driving it off the lot once and then it's just a used car.

As someone who as accidently eaten glitter don't do this. It only makes you like your dumb when you vomit it back up.

Go with the dealer model, it's got that 20% discount but extremely low mileage.

It humanizes the people getting shot and dehumanizes the people shooting. You can see the faces of the victims and how terrified they are. They're also lit while the shooters are faceless monsters shooting from the dark. It's a deliberate decision meant to make you sympathize with the victims and hate the attackers.

It's far worse than the original, because in this case it looks like some 4 foot tall guys armed with sticks fighting a giant.

Yeah, the original is considered one of the best paintings ever made for a drat good reason. That is...not as good.

Articulate your needs. I'm here to listen.
Sports leagues have salary caps, profit sharing, and a draft order that favors poor-performing teams. I don't know why people use them as a metaphor for capitalism.

US sports are the most non-free market sports I know of.

Football teams can buy other team's star players just to put them on the bench.

It's kind of funny, because it's obvious that even otherwise reasonable stuff like "critique of the public school system" and "distrust of the government and big pharma" are going to be crazy bullshit rather than the things that those institutions legitimately deserve criticism for.

'Public schools' in Britain are schools that are even more elite than private schools, and were only called public schools because the only alternatives when they were founded in the 15th century were personal/family tutors and church institutions. They were the first schools open to anyone (who could pay).

British people criticizing the public school system either have had too much exposure to US conservatives or are leftists criticizing the fact that a vastly disproportionate number of high up government types attended these elite schools as children, the UK equivalent would be the state school system.

Pissing outside, something that definitely didn't happen under capitalism before public housing projects and the welfare state.

I know there's way more to dispute about that stupid rear end statement, but royals had loving garderobes. Like, they specifically engineered the castles that were both the greatest display of and the very seat of their power so that they wouldn't have to piss outdoors.

Hell, there's at least one documented instance of an assassin taking advantage of that to kill a noble by hiding under the garderobe that connected to the royal bedroom with a spear.
