@Dave @TagMeInSkipIGotThis , I'm wondering about the legality of that as well plus I would tell them that I boycott them because of it.
As for surcharges, imho they're a blatant rip off, any business surely has all their costs already calculated into the price of their wares.

@BalpeenHammer @Dave , and definitely less than the 800 billion/yr of the US who use it to support...
@BalpeenHammer , as for genocide headlines... so many it's heart breaking - I generally get news from sources that are balanced and factual - in part because disinformation, lies and falsehoods can be precursors to a lot of inhumane behaviour, including murder and imho have no place in good reporting.
@BalpeenHammer , and we want people to be free, that doesn't mean we want them to murder each other, or commit genocide for that matter !
@BalpeenHammer @Dave , not intimidate but without checks and balances it sounds like a recipe for disaster.
We generally do want a press we can trust and not one that spreads falsehoods/lies.
@Viper_NZ @Ilovethebomb , thinking about it: Shouldn't the country responsible for its sinking pay for the cleanup?
Or like with capitalism, are profits privatized and costs socialized?
Ie is the damage done by war faring countries forgotten and is there no accountability?
@stellargmite @MightyCuriosity , that's the cool thing about Mastodon, most pics have an alt txt, not just for visually impaired users but to add clarity and info.

@BalpeenHammer @quoll , not the ones that I know.
I think the bigger problem already might be that the 'pied Pipers' of industry make to many offers that can't be refused (otherwise how can people that not that long ago gave one opinion now claim the opposite,
I mean, are they nut jobs pretending to be normal or just haven't they got enough backbone to stand against orders from the top, or the money is too good - both I guess).
