I'm going to bet that it doesn't happen on a big scale.

It's fair. When Microsoft's hardware requirements provides competitors with an opportunity to attract users that don't care to upgrade hardware to suit Microsoft, those competitors should take advantage.
I can't go a day without a clear reminder of why Trump is president. You don't allow that.
Your fault, fuckwit.
What if each piece of meat was taken unwillingly from a curious, gentle intelligence that you could beneft more by learning from, than by killing and eating it?
Whatever curious, gently intelligent meat I might forego will be eaten by some other curious and gentle intelligence. My cat is the most curious and gentle thing walking the Earth, and he butchers about 3 curious and gentle chipmunks or rabbits a week, that I can prove. Republicans didn't make him that way. Capitalism didn't do it either. There is no sky daddy, so we can't blame that. The universe you inhabit did it. He's right to be how he is and so am I.
So fuck off.
I didn't listen. Now my igloo is collapsing and sliding into the Antarctic ocean! If only I had stopped eating meat...
The head of police is now threatening extradition and jail time to U.S. citizens for online posts allegedly egging on the violence from afar.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Mark Rowley: "We will throw the full force of the law at people and whether you’re in this country committing crimes on the streets or committing crimes from further afield online we will come after you."
It is "unacceptable for foreign officials to issue or threaten arrest warrants on U.S. citizens or U.S. residents for social media posts on American platforms while physically present on U.S. soil" and "for foreign officials to demand that American tech platforms adopt global content moderation policies or engage in censorship activity that reaches beyond their authority and into the United States.
I feel like I'm in some kind of matrix world lately. Like things are "real." A US secretary of state saying things that are obviously correct, have been in desperate need of saying for neigh on 20+ years now, and actually acting on their words on behalf of US citizens?
What timeline is this?
Ding Ding Ding!
The correct answer.

1. How can we say this without addressing income inequality?
There is literally nothing you can imagine that would actually do more to correct income inequality in the US than decoupling from China and other bottom dollar manufacturing hubs.
An artifact of euphemistic language. As opposed to euphemisation: the employment of euphemisms. That's how I'd define it, anyhow.
Actually creating euphemisms? You have me there. There is "bowdlerization," but I don't feel that quite captures what you likely mean.
Going after activists, that's comforting. So he's hurting the right people, right?
Yep.
"I am your vengeance."
member?
Thing is, he is avenging. There is a great deal to be vengeful about. And that's your fault. You hurt a lot of people for a long time, and now we are here.
Also, it's not going to get better, for you or I. That's not how this works.
Yes.
And then I thought about it, and researched it. Pretty good neologism, I think. I'm the first to use it, as far as I can tell. I've concluded that it's apt and pithy, and I'm astonished that it's never appeared before.
Academic euphemory for: The shit we peddle doesn't mean anything to anyone.
and wish we let at least the settled people stay
That's exactly what is happening.
Has your preferred news feeds been telling you Trump is rounding up illegals by the boat load? He isn't. They're going after criminals and activists, mostly.
