Right, or that back then they just didn’t care if you drank the battery because there wasn’t a hugely well-developed culture of lawsuits like we have now. Those fuckers in 1914-1950 were definitely down for a battery party, no doubt. The ones that made it now think that everyone had common sense because only the ones that did made it through.

Trump is a symptom of a disease that Reagan was the harbinger of. Without Reagan and all that followed after him, you do not get a Trump presidency.

Sure Reagan’s an asshole. But do we really think the corporations wouldn’t have figured this out regardless?
