I think the best example is the PlayStation 2 being discontinued in 2013, as well the PlayStation 1 in 2006

So no explanation for the glib comment, just insults. Thought so. I have lots of hobbies, we're not friends, and I don't need the trolling - blocking you now bye.

Sorry bud, but you just can't fly in hot with a dickish reply to someone else's comment and expect them to extend you any grace. Especially when you're not even actually replying to the actual comment but your gross misreading of it.

Since apparently I'm blocked. For any body else who might stumble upon this one. Lovable's assertion that any comparison between chattle slavery and prison slavery somehow diminishes the suffering and plight of the former is a real head scratcher. Especially since the prison industrial complex in the United States was built to be an institutional replacement for the systems of oppression that were banned by the 13th amendment.

Edit: chattel for cattle, auto correct strikes again.
