Jesus, that is a gross way to inject advertising into turn-by-turn navigation.

Edit/update from 9to5google so this post does not spread what is apparently inaccurate information: https://9to5google.com/2024/07/08/google-maps-pop-up-quick-detour-ad/

I agree. It is quite sad that you think you can order people around.

Not as sad as your bigotry against trans people, but still sad.

You're getting sadder by the minute.

And yet I've never said anything bigoted like suggesting that trans women aren't women.

And of course, it's interesting that you call me a troll when you say things like:

Fascism is a socialist movement. Always was.

Or:

Plastic is better for the environment than everything else.

https://lemmy.world/comment/10956668

Or what about:

Vegans should stop existing. The reasoning is simple: humans are part of nature and rely on other animals one way or another. But this reliance is always non consented. Thus vegan existence is animal abuse.

All within the past week, including your transphobic comment.

Of course, these are comments of yours which have not been deleted.

Your arguing skills are through the roof!

And then there's all the communities you, the non-troll, have been banned from:

Hostility, misinformation, bigotry... I don't think I'm the one who has an arguing and trolling issue. I wonder how long it will take you to be banned from this community?

[–] Aux@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Go on!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

No, please, you go on. You're the one who's likely to get banned from this community any time now because of whatever bigoted or hostile thing you happen to say to someone.

It wouldn't even be the first time you were banned from here:

[–] Aux@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Don't stop!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sure. You seem to be the expert on these matters: Are trans women women? Are Jews human?

[–] Aux@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Go on!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You didn’t answer my questions.

[–] Aux@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Please continue.
