  • The “I’m 18/21” button on websites has been around since I was a kid in the 90s, used to have to input the “actual” date too so I was born 01/01/1970 according to a lot of now defunct porn sites lol. Also still in use on tobacco, vape, alcohol, and gun websites as well.

    But yeah as I am am example of, lying is always possible lol. I guess this passport or the ID thing in some states is supposed to hinder that, but torrent sites throw a wrench into any censorship efforts and they’re already illegal, they won’t play ball with the ID bullshit, ever.



  • Some homeowners inherited it from a parent that paid for it, should they be killed? And if you go back far enough, someone did “discover” that land (read: killed or displaced Native Americans), so it’s the same as your british problem just actually closer to “great great grandpa fought for it” than the brits fighting the french or whatever the hell, which would probably be greatX6 by now.

    Where does the comic say anything about a tax? It doesn’t. You can assume that’s what it means all you want but your assumptions are no more valid than mine due to lack of context. Frankly I’d say my assumptions are more valid than yours because I’m just going off the source while you’re bringing outside things the source doesn’t actually say.


  • Where in the comic does it say “noble?”

    estate /ĭ-stāt′/ noun

    Estate:

    1. A landed property, usually of considerable size.

    2. One’s property, both real and personal, vested and contingent, especially as disposed of in a will.

    3. The nature and extent of an owner’s rights with respect to land or other property.

    Where do the above definitions specify “british” or “landlord” or “noble” or “feudalism?” Nowhere. It says “the house and land the house occupies, typically large.” All that other shit may be assumed by you, but being that it isn’t stated in the comic my assumptions are just as valid as yours.

    It’s a bad comic and should have been made better to clarify its point, as it stands it’s simply advocating violence for having a property, any property, not just landlords.
