In other words, a subjective opinion is being asked that anyone can disagree with and similar to "cancel culture", we're just going to pretend this does not exist.
Niels Ryberg Finsen was awarded the Nobel Prize..."in recognition of his contribution to the treatment of diseases, especially lupus vulgaris, with concentrated light radiation, whereby he has opened a new avenue for medical science."
Even under the most generous reading of Trump's statements, how in the world would it be remotely possible to "inject disinfectant" in any way?
His speculation, particularly in an area where he has no expertise (but of course he still thinks he knows what he's talking about), is wildly dangerous; but of course, he can't shut up and let experts talk.
Worth noting, he never said the exact words "inject disinfectant", but did allude to putting disinfectant chemicals and methods inside the body. Still dumb, but be careful quoting those words like that, Trump supporters will (possibly rightly) jump down your throat for that, and promptly discard anything you might say
Often times people will upvote the topic / headline as something interesting or noteworthy or because the discussion in the comments is interesting. I’m sure a double digit percentage of people are not even clicking over to TFA, and then another double digit percentage click and then bounce back to the comments (after hitting the paywall) for the discussion and may still upvote.
You can't get much weaker and softer than this right here. I'm just trying to imagine the PTSD you must experience when faced with billboards on the highway or when you attend a sporting/musical event and see BoA plastered around the venue.
Also, it's not "unsolicited" when you made the choice to turn on the radio and turn up the volume. If you don't like the ads, turn the radio off.

I'm pretty sure everyone is happy with everything, when they define their own terms.

GP isn't getting PTSD, but ads here are like mosquitos. A few here and there you won't notice, but once there's lots of them buzzing around and biting, the quality of life goes down very quick.
As for unsolicited - they are. They are a malicious third party injecting itself where it isn't welcome. Also, be it TV or radio, ads weren't supposed to be there. This is where the infectious nature of advertising shows. They came and took over these media, and dragged their quality down.
I've always had a problem with this, who thought it was a good idea to allow large colourful structures literally designed to capture the attention of people operating heavy machinery next to places where they are travelling at high speeds?
ESRB is not a legal regulation and has zero authority. It is merely a privately held company that holds the copyrights to their system of rating video games.
Don't accuse others of lying when even a modicum of good faith points to them simply holding opinions different from yours.
In this case, they are also right. At least under the assumption of taxation linear to property value.
Thats because richer people tend to spend less (as a %) of their income on housing. I hope that's intuitively obvious: making minimum wage, you're likely to spend 40% or 50% of income on rent. At the other extreme, the Bill Gates of the world spend about a Pentium III rounding error of their income.
It's the same with every other consumption taxes. Often, the first $100,000 in value or so are free. That helps a little, but only for the balance between the poor and the middle class. It's almost impossible to adequately tax the super-rich within this framework.
