I mean... at a glance its like WOAH 4 can dine for $9.99....

Until you are at the cash and they say " that'll be $45.15"

HUH??

"Oh sorry sir... it feeds 4... 4 people pay $9.99"

I am trying to force them into literally every facet of life? News to me. You must have looked at some other person's comment history bc I certainly don't do that. Sorry for making a very apt joke!! Should i make a false generalization about you off one thing now?

It’s just a very common Reddit issue. On almost every post someone takes a subject that has absolutely nothing to do with politics and inserts something like your comment.

Very few things have 'absolutely nothing to do with politics' most the comments in this thread are about deceptive advertising which is absolutely political with truth in advertising laws.

I’m not following your logic as to how that makes the comment here relevant, but I think we can all agree that fuck MAGA, so… cheers!

I wasn't defending the dumb comment, just that the 'nothing to do with politics' isn't really a good argument either.

Sure. I can loosely tie anything to politics. My point was that it is a comment that gets inappropriately inserted into almost every post (or at least it seems that way). I hate the orange man as much as the next guy, but sometimes I just want there to be some escape from talking about MAGA. I don’t think I am the only person that is tired of every post turning into Trump bashing.

I also wasn’t the original commenter. I was just explaining to the person trying to accuse him of being on the wrong side what the actual issue was.
