I is confusioned. The OP shows support for Goya Beans, and others responded that they are not going to support Goya because the CEO supports Trump. Some implicated that they are using their right to use their money however they will. The OP thinks buyng Goya will support minorities which implies he is against them. And now we landed in a discussion about covid-19. Link to post Share on other sites

I is confusioned. lemme lay down some knowledge on ya, some brands of beans, use different kinds of beans, some are minimally processed and, beans are very good for you, they carry proteins and vitamins you need in a healthy diet, and a healthy diet makes a strong immune system, a strong immune system helps you fight Covid-19. And, beans will help turn you into the Austrian god, Arnold!!! Or Macho Man Randy Savage, take your pick Link to post Share on other sites
Mostly Peaceful Ryan Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I support Goya simply because the CEO stood up to the cancel culture mob and cancel culture has been annoying for a long time. Everyday I wake up, they talk about a new thing people on twitter are outraged about, I want more people to stand up against those whom are constantly offended. I want everyone to calm down, stop with the virtue signalling, and stop with being offended by every little thing. It is not productive for anything. I am not sure who I will vote for in this election. Link to post Share on other sites

But your "whom" is followed by a verb that it is performing, and thus is the subject and not the object upon which the action is being applied; "those" was your pivot.

A good rule of thumb is that it's okay to use "who" when technically "whom" is correct, because it's the 21st century and language evolves, so at this point only assholes will correct you. ...oh...

SithLord Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 All this bean talk is making me miss America. : ( I have to go to the import food stores if I want beans that aren't red beans (ie sweets) or some others I don't like but have no name for. But going to the import store is expensive. So here's my contribution: Link to post Share on other sites

The flame that burns twice as bright, burns half as long. Kanye's run was just too bright, I guess. Is it so wrong to want a Wakanda future for America? Where the leadership is decided not on intelligences, politics, or democratic vote of the people but instead on a fight to the death by two warriors. I wanted the future for America where our supply of vibranium is used to improve the well being of our people, and possibly a captain America shield. I wanted Elon Musk to really take NASA to new places. We will make these dreams come true in 2024. Link to post Share on other sites
