That was the traditional meaning of the word, yes. However it has been horribly misused to push headlines and in the legal arena it has been used to push for harder penalties on what would be considered traditional weapons.
It’s a pet peve of mine because it dilutes the word, but home made preasure cooker bombs have been called WMDs in the US and people seem OK with it.
I have to say I am really disappointed with this hand holding form of moderation, treating me as a child that can’t make up my own mind on a product. I was able to find that cat food sold through a reputable pet store and now I can’t remember the name because you’ve deleted it. You’ve decided your opinion trumps my research and that’s not how an open forum for discussion should be.
I know you think that animals are going to be harmed and you’re trying to do the right thing, but it’s simply overplaying your role and blocking discussion. Imagine going into a BDSM community and telling the people there that what they’re doing is harmful and they need to see a psychiatrist. Maybe you could be right? But it’s not your call.
You should be stopping hateful speach, bullying, and trying to keep illegal content off the server. Sluthing links and deleting posts because they don’t match your opinion is simply not the role of a mod. I don’t mean to be rude or insult you personally, but these kinds of actions matter and really make me reconsider if this is a community I want to be a part of if it is run this way.
This is actually a very good comparison because restaurants use this argument all the time, except for wages:
“I can’t make money running my restaurant if I have to pay a living wage to my servers, so you should pay them with tips. How else can we stay open?”
These business that can’t operate profitably like any other business should fail.
I’ve been vegan for a little over five years now and I take the same multivitamin I used to take, plus a B12 supplement.
Now I happen to have JUST bought a new bottle from Costco the other day and looking at my receipt it was… $14 for 360 tablets (a year’s supply). So over the last five years Big Kirkland has sucked a hefty $70 out of me for being so gullible.
If only I didn’t have this wool over my eyes! Your conspiracy theory has to be the worst I’ve ever heard.
