1 year agoWhile companies are bad, that doesn’t automatically make things a company produces bad even if the company is trying to price-gouge or otherwise make the most profit out of it. You can oppose the latter while not pushing bullshit about the former.
In this regard, I’m referring to things that people generally try to push anti-science views on and use “company bad” as their purposefully bad argument to conflate the two things.
So, medicine and pharmaceuticals are not bad, even if the companies are bad.
Same goes with vaccines, obviously.
Biotech crops are not bad (and people really need to learn about how all crop cultivars have patents, including heirloom and organic cultivars).
I find myself today unable to upvote or boost anything without immediately being sent to that maintenance page.
Edit: Oh, also, I just realized that I myself can’t see upvotes on any thread and every thread also lists as having “0 comments”. I have to click into the comment section to find that there are indeed comments.
That also applies to my own posted threads, which I am not receiving any notifications about for comments posted. So I probably won’t even see your or anyone else’s reply to this comment.
