Turns out that different people like different drinks. And that's perfectly fine.

Taste is subjective! There can't be bad taste, there can only be stuff you don't like.

So don't be an asshat and look down on other people for what they like.

Of course? Did anyone expect something else? And frankly they would be extremely stupid if they did anything they didn't check with their lawyer first.

And LMG would be stupid to say or release anything else on that topic! This is potential lawsuit country, they will walk very carefully and I would be surpised if they didn't check every public communication with their lawyer first.

I'm not shitting on you, but "we have ducks" has to be the funniest justification why the relationship isn't abusive I've seen yet.

Unfortunately climate change really doesn't care about fairness. It just reacts to external inputs and then affects everyone, regardless of how much or little they have contributed to it.

If what you said was true at the time you don’t look silly at all, because people don’t follow companies they decide they are done with.

That's only true if you actually state it as such. It's really easy to clarify such a statement with "Back when I last checked ..." or "Years ago it was ..."

I’m not saying to blindly trust the judiciary, but that not trusting the judiciary is an inherent failure in society.

Who's not trusting the judiciary? I for example do think they did their due diligence in not punishing someone they couldn't prove beyond reasonable doubt that he did the crime he's accused. That simply can mean that there weren't enough evidence to proof his guilt. And I think many who still don't believe his innocence see it similar. With cases about sexual assault this is very often the case simply because of the isolated nature of such a potential crime. It often comes down statement against statement with very little evidence to back either side. And since our justice system rightfully rather errs on the side of the accused, that means that many such crimes will never be proven in court!

That's the prize we pay for making sure as few people get falsely imprisoned/punished as possible. The knowledge that there are people out there who committed all kinds of crimes but they will walk free because we couldn't prove their guilt.

But of course that doesn't mean we people simply have to ignore that fact and treat everyone as innocent until they are judged before a court. So in this case, I find it very suspicious that there are so many independent accusation and I look at the case of Netflix which have won the case of their dismissal of him because his actions on set. To me that's enough to no longer want want to watch a movie of him and that's perfectly fine since I'm not a judge trying to decide if serious legal punishment should be forced upon him but rather a random dude on this planet who can't do shit against him beside not watch a movie of him.

Or we accept that our justice system can't be perfect and accept that there won't be any legal ramification against Spacey. Sexual assault charges always are hard to prove if you don't get physical prove right after the crime. That's even more so when the crime happened years ago. The fact we have to accept is that quite a lot of guilty people will walk free from such a crime.

But that doesn't mean we all now have to believe he's innocent and it certainly doesn't mean we all have to ignore that and be forced to watch further movies with him.

Some people are objectively harmful to democratic countries and the principles they are built upon or even the world itself. If death is the only thing that can remove them from a position of power where they can futher harm the country and the people in it, I have absolutely no problem with seeing them on the way there. Good ridance!

If I ever get as vile as these people and negatively impact thousands if not millions of people then feel free to cheer my death.

If you intent to make general statements about them, it would be good to do so, yes. Else you could look silly if your statement is outdated.

In this case I think it's mostly to get people to use the App regularely and so expose more people to the store.
