Investigation into Canada’s New Brunswick brain syndrome is being blocked by the province, whose claims that the syndrome is various existing diseases have been debunked by federal experts, who suggest that the provincial government controlled by its forestry industry is blocking the investigation to retain tourism and industry.

    Surely they had to put some thought into it

    Holy shit, mindless doesn’t mean “no thought.” lmao

    A bit of research at the very least

    Irony. You know what is the least amount of research one can do? Look up a word in the dictionary.

    But that being said, why even attempt to pedantically defend attacking America when we aren’t even discussing America at all?

      Holy shit, mindless doesn’t mean “no thought.”

      It does though.

      a: marked by a lack of mind or consciousness

      a mindless sleep

      b(1): marked by or displaying no use of the powers of the intellect

      mindless violence

      (2): requiring little attention or thought

      especially: not intellectually challenging or stimulating

      mindless work

      a mindless movie

        So you thought I meant asleep and couldn’t figure out from context that I meant “requiring little attention or thought especially : not intellectually challenging or stimulating”?

        Wow, just wow.

          If you could read, you’d note I provided the full definitions according to Meriam Webster. Two different definitions (a) and (b) are listed, with b(1) being exactly what you think “mindless” doesn’t mean.

            The only way to read what you submitted and think that the original statement that “it means no thought” makes sense is if you are picking the one about being asleep or unconscious. Which means someone can’t read things in context while hilariously shitting on people for no being able to read.
