Well yes. But what is their offical excuse?

[–] linkinkampf19@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Per the article, it "exposes you to danger". Piss poor excuse when everything around them is already danger. Basically finding every which way to encroach of any feasible sliver of livelihood. AKA they want them to suffer and preferably die horribly afterward. Which, uh, fucking sucks.

Ah yes water. Such danger. I will be eaten by shark. At least the shark will have a nice meal. If I stay on the ground I will just get hombed.
