I guess I just assumed most people have one of those window breaking tools that cost like 5 dollars.

Yes, it does. I didn't write "this will feel like literal hell", I wrote "this feels [...]", as in I am currently experiencing said feeling.

It uses my likeness. This might lead people to believe, consciously or not, that I endorse the message, that's the point of the technology.

It doesn't matter if I or my likeness has convinced someone of a view in a practical sense, so does it matter morally?

The problem lies in how laymen interpret the phrase "intelligence". I fully understand and agree with your argument in respect to the technical definition and usage, but laymen will not care enough to understand that, and they're creating dangerous situations because of it.

Even ultras wouldn't call themselves "as left as they come".

Y'know, in my darkest moments, I've taken solace in the fact that suicide would also mean I wouldn't have to partake in capitalism anymore.

This feels like literal hell. Not even suicide will let you escape.

Societies today are extremely large, which means it doesn't matter if a majority does something or not, if a per mille does it's a massive, society-defining problem.

I feel like these people are incredibly disingenuous. If I'm in a hot car and want to make an exaggerated example out of what I think is bad design, I act like these people. If I'm in a hot car, stuck and panicking, I'm thinking about how much a window costs for about half a minute, and then I break a window.

For some reason they also ask how many you need.

I've done that once, and honestly wrote I needed four screws. A few days later I got an envelope with like, 20 screws. I get it, but still found it a bit funny.

... What? I have Ikea furniture that's lasted 10+ years, through 5+ moves including disassembly and reassembly every time. Nothing took more than 20 minutes to assemble, and I definitely believe this furniture can outlive me.

Oh wow, I just looked up Lemmygrad and was shocked and dissapointed at the results, seeing the Exploding Heads results changed that dissapointment to complete disgust.
