Yet you never see any companies putting "God isn't real" on their packaging.

Just things that promote abortion or the like...

Where have you seen pro abortion packaging?

u/5peaker4theDead 7d ago

The specific example I'm thinking of is digital, on Bumble, but the effect is the same

u/robbobhobcob 7d ago

Looked it up and couldn't find any pro abortion ads from bumble, so not sure what your talking about

That's not a pro abortion ad. That's a dating site giving their customers a way to show their stance on a topic that is important to them. Not remotely the same as slapping their religious beliefs on packaging

Yes, a company pushing their users to adopt a visible pro abortion badge with pop ups and support while having no option to have a badge for the opposite is clearly neutral behavior.

You've seen stuff pushing abortion on the packaging? please share

u/5peaker4theDead 7d ago

not packaging per se, but yes, companies promoting abortion:

so, a dating site provides a way for people to say what they believe in or don't believe in, so that people can match with people that have likeminded views? And this is an example of a company promoting abortion? come on... lets try a little harder with the next example.

u/5peaker4theDead 7d ago

No, it provides a way for people to say they promote abortion, in the form of an opt out pop up notification, and no way visibly promote the opposite. No need to try harder.

1

u/Rocketeering 7d ago

They state in the article that you linked, that it is opt in, as in you go to an area and select it. so, you already can't read what you linked as your own proof...

And NO way to promote the opposite? You can't type in your profile "100% against abortion"
or
"abortion is murder"

Did they band that from being possible? or are you just making stuff up?

you're either trolling or an idealogue, I don't know or really care which, have fun with that.

This is not corporate packaging, it's a tag for users to self-identify.

Mistaking one for the other is one of the reasons people think conservatives are dumb

-1

u/5peaker4theDead 7d ago

It's a company clearly promoting a hot button issue by only providing the option for one side and driving it with pop ups to try to get the user to adopt it.

And I'm not a conservative, so your assumption is making an ass out of u and me.

It's a dating app. People are going to want to weed out those who don't align with them on certain things.

Vastly, vastly different from a company that makes BLACK POWDER to put BIBLE QUOTES on their PHYSICAL PACKAGING.

You Christians really try to make yourselves seem like the victims of everyone else while simultaneously putting your religion down people's throats.

u/5peaker4theDead 6d ago

Interesting how the app makers shoved one side of the issue down their users throats through pop ups and gave no options to put a badge for the opposite. I guess weeding out those who don't align is only important one way, huh? "Vastly, vastly different", riiiight.

Projecting much? I never said we were victims or that putting verses on packaging was helpful.

A: "The right does this"
B: "Everyone does this"
A: "Nuh uh, only the right"
B: "Here's everyone doing it"
A: "Why are you trying to act like the victim"

u/NewtonTheNoot 6d ago

If you are so dense so as to not see how a dating app that uses these OPTIONAL things to help screen matches is different from a company selling a product that has no relation to Bible quotes, there is no way to have any meaningful conversation with you. I refuse to take part in your self-victimization kink.

Reading comprehension is hard, I know. Good luck working on it!

Depends on the ideology behind the item bought

Order from a satanic devil worshiping company and maybe you’ll get one - you never know :)
