It's funny that you don't think this is just the kind of people that end up working for far left extremist outlets.. authoritarians who want the people to be slaves
AHHHHHHHH! That may be one of the UGLIEST creatures I’ve ever seen in my entire life! Good thing he’s a fag, they’re not picky at all so I guess he’s getting laid 🤮🤮
Definitely the later. Its a mind so weak and frail, it can't handle the burden of choice and this phenomenon is way more common than not in humans.
Eric Fromm, a communist, wrote about this long ago in a book called "Escape from freedom". Where is analysis of freedom as a psychological disorder led him to believe that these people simply cannot exist in a world of choice.
That choice does and will ultimately drive you insane because most people cannot live with the burden of their own choices.
These people USED to be christian and just say " welp I guess thats gods plan" and go about their day but now they've turned atheist and that's why Fromm concluded that they'll eventually require some kind of entity to load their terrible decisions on to.
Whether that be a new God, republicans, government, etc...
They cannot live with weight of their own actions and these people aren't going anywhere anytime soon.
The "less choice" argument is right out of the commie playbook. Remember Bernie making the same argument for deodorant and sneakers a few short years ago?
They are communist pussies. I don't believe it is PTSD from overload, then it is that communism creates a fear of making the wrong choice. They'd rather have someone tell them which one to buy. Society is too materialistic, even with groceries. I bet the most sought after item to loot is still Nike sneakers.
Leftists also think the choice they make for themselves is the best choice for everybody. Thus, there is no need for choices because they have the best one.
Look at what they did with covid. It's a perfect example.
Cause they are 'educated' so obviously theirs is the correct choice. And if only everyone could be as educated as they are they'd also see that it is the correct choice. And couldn't imagine why anyone would want anything else.
Yeah; they are afraid of buying the wrong orange juice. Which one again was it that was associated with the right? Which one was it that donated to killing babies? If I buy the wrong one, the comrades will take my house and i'll have to go live with them!
It fits into the paradigm of "everything good, comes from within and everything bad comes from outside". If they feel bad about something they did, it's because someone either made them do it, or someone's making them feel bad. Just like the fatties.
Omg Will DEFINITELY try it! I usually make my pork chops with kmeli suneli which I highly recommend (perfect with lobio, also a Republic of Georgia 🇬🇪 recipe) you can order the spice online or get it from a Russian market). They are delicious but I’m definitely gonna try pretzel pork chops, thank you for the suggestion!
No I’m not but I love Georgian food! I make it all the time. I also love Armenian food, I make it a lot too! My husband is going to make a little outdoor oven so I can make lavash, I am always so disappointed with store bought lavash! I make keshkeg a lot (with chicken unless I can get the right lamb), pomegranate chicken, and when my Russian market has it, I buy and eat so much basterma it’s has to be a sin lol. They also have the best khachapuri there (yes I know that’s Georgian and I love to make mchadi and eat churchkela when they have the good kind at the Russian market). I also like more typical stuff like hummus and leblebi, I have yet to eat something from the Caucasus I didn’t love. I’m actually about to go in there and bust out my Armenian cookbook to figure out what I should make with some bulgur I have to cook.
My mom had a friend who was married to an Armenian man, she made the best Armenian food for me because she was always so happy to be able to cook it. I guess that’s how I developed a taste for it.
When I was a kid my dad knew an Armenian lady and he told her I loved to read, so she bought me “The Road from Home”by Veron Duhmejian (spelling is probably off) about the Armenian genocide, broke my heart to read what your ancestors went through. I’ve always been fascinated with Armenia ever since. First Christian country in the world, with an amazingly beautiful landscape and such a rich history. Oh and of course I closely follow the Artsakh situation, pulling for Armenia of course. Terrible things going on there, I hope Putin continues to protect the Armenians as best he can because apparently the USA doesn’t care.
Can I ask where in Armenia you’re from? When did you come to the USA? Are you in Glendale CA? Lol. Much respect to the Armenians there for fighting Antifa. But I expected no less from y’all! Do you speak Armenian? It’s the coolest looking language.
Oh man my dad would love you haha. I'm actually born here. I am from southern California. Not Glendale. But not far away from Glendale. My dad grew up in the Serbian neighborhood in east LA. There were Armenians there too. And this was back in the 1950s before any Armenians started moving to glendale. That's the more recent wave of immigrants. And I unfortunately don't speak Armenian but I can understand it somewhat. I can't translate very well but I can understand what the conversation is about for sure.
Haha I bet I would love your dad too! It’s so funny, I love watching the show “Mannix” on MeTV, I looked up Mike Connors and he’s Armenian too. Krikor Ohanian was his real name. So now I always call him by his real name. And I didn’t know the Glendale Armenians were more recent arrivals, or that there was a Serbian neighborhood out there too. I also make a lot of Serbian food lol. I bet your dad voted for George Deukmejian for governor back in the 90’s, supposedly he was a great governor, I think Krikor Ohanian was a big supporter of his.
Wheat is sprayed with it so cereal is supposedly concentrated with residue of roundup. I try and avoid wheat other than my home made bread and biscuits.
If you're literally so paralyzed by "choice" that you leave the store without anything, you are suffering from a mental illness that is destroying the quality of your life.
Instead of getting help.. this dipshit decided to crow about it. Which makes sense, this entire article is about fashion anyways, and he wears his illness like a badge of honor.
This article may be stupid, but pay attention - if you start seeing this sort of opinion showing up frequently, you are probably witnessing a social engineering campaign.
I've never suffered from this problem because I don't recognize 90% of the products in grocery stores as food.
Remove everything with canola oil, corn syrup, artificial flavorings, "edible" plastics, anything that's fluorescent orange colored, all of the out of season Frankenstein fruit and vegetables, all of the low quality and hormone saturated meats... and what remains is milk, rice and dried beans.
Damn, Atlantic Writer defeated by a shelf of orange juice. Went specifically to the store for orange juice, couldn't decide, and left empty handed with his tail between his legs, head sunk down and his testicles eviscerated.
Analysis paralysis comes from lack of leadership skills. Even if it’s only leadership skills for leading yourself through life. Not making a decision is a decision.
I can't deny that 99.99% of all choices on the store shelf are identical and most product choice is basically asking which package design you prefer, but it's not for this guy to say.
What the fuck kind of weak-willed, simple-minded moron can't make a decision on what groceries to buy? If the stupid fuckwit is being truthful, he may as well get a lobotomy for all the use he makes of his brain.
Of course, he's not being truthful, he's trying to normalize living in a commie hellscape where you have no choice about anything, not even what juice to buy. GET FUCKED COMMIES!
It's easy to narrow choice if one can critically think - and the left is mostly devoid of this capability.
I'll take fresh squeezed. I'll take without pulp. I'll take from Florida. I'll take a quart. I'll look at brand. I'll look at date. I'll evaluate price. If all is equal, I'll try one now and another next time.
Try to give a woman a choice between several things where all of the choices are essentially equal. The majority of them cannot make a decision on their own.
Yup. Pick a few criteria* and take the cheapest that matches. Absolutely not complicated.
If ever it comes down to a shortlist (rarely) I just set a ten second timer in my head and just grab whichever's closest if I haven't decided by then. If there's a shortlist, there's no difference worth worrying about.
(*To be clear, the criteria can be "This one's more expensive but I like it" or "This store's store brands are usually not good")
If you struggle to choose an orange juice, the problem is with you, not the selection. Being decisive isn't something that just becomes impossible when there are many options.
"REEEE! I CANT HANDLE CHOICES AND INDEPENDENT THOUGHT!!!!"
Yeah... life can be a challenge sometimes. Often, when standing before the selection of canned goods and having trouble deciding, I think back to how the storming of Normandy was and realize that our generation has the same level of fights as the last.
Leftists like to be spoon fed by corporations, they want to have their choices removed, the sheep mind doesnt like to think for itself. This is how it goes, this is why they accept communism, they want to be controlled. They give up their freedom and choice for the easy peace of being a slave.
And corporations are abusing this mentality, why is it so hard to find products without sugar, added sugar. Everything is filled with corn syrup and artificial crap.
We truly are in clown world. I want more choices damn it!
these people...
seriously, it must be tough trying to come up with a new take on things! and not just any take, but a hot take. something that really contradicts established culture. because... you know... whatever was done in the past is wrong. because... it was done by old white men.
i wonder if this person took into account the need for variety because of certain peoples ailments and tragedies they faced. or maybe the "journey" someone went through to find the right orange juice that met their needs! me personally, i like my orange juice made with soy juice because its gluten, and peanut free.
We just got an Aldi here and we love it! Actually went there yesterday in fact! So much cheaper than most other stores although you can’t get everything there, it definitely helps our money stretch and in this economy that’s a definite bonus especially because we have five kids.
It's not really a commie take to dislike arbitrary waste, but there must be some dude out there who loves that we have 400 identical varieties of maple syrup to choose from, so we'll just keep doing it.
Exactly. I don’t buy corn syrup. I’m trying to get my kids to switch to cane syrup, it’s significantly cheaper lol. But no corn syrup “maple syrup” in MY house, dammit!
her editors tell her to push owning nothing and being happy
The REAL QUESTION is... Is the Atlantic writer suffering the affects of unfiltered drinking water or..... Is her stupidity purely genetic?
It's worse. It's a man. Too much soy, apparently.
Christ alive!
He also describes himself as "flaming."
We should narrow his choices at the Bath House or on Grindr then.
Might slow the spread of the Monkey Pox.
It's funny that you don't think this is just the kind of people that end up working for far left extremist outlets.. authoritarians who want the people to be slaves
kek.
He's the kind of guy who can eat a polish sausage and yodel at the same time.
AHHHHHHHH! That may be one of the UGLIEST creatures I’ve ever seen in my entire life! Good thing he’s a fag, they’re not picky at all so I guess he’s getting laid 🤮🤮
He has never been tasked with shopping before this trip. His OJ always just magically appeared in the fridge without his deep analysis of the options.
Imagine the PTSD when he has to choose his wife's boyfriend.
He describes himself as flaming gay of course.
Definitely the later. Its a mind so weak and frail, it can't handle the burden of choice and this phenomenon is way more common than not in humans.

So the question is... Wtf do we do with them?
Make psychology mandatory, educate people on how being week minded faggots makes you miserable.... it's not much but it's all i got.
This obviously comes after we burn the education system to the ground and un-commify it ..
Freedom of choice
Is what you got
Freedom from choice
Is what you want

Sounds like Bernie the commie talking about deoderant
Well, if the WEF members are “donating” millions to these poisonous rags, they’re not just going to jump, but also ask, “how high?”
IIRC, the Atlantic is owned by Steve Job's widow.
I know. And Bill Gates, a prominent WEF member, “donates” millions to get pieces like this written.
"Too much choice"
A single surviving WEF-controlled producer .. for each product or endeavor .. intensifies.
The "less choice" argument is right out of the commie playbook. Remember Bernie making the same argument for deodorant and sneakers a few short years ago?
Worse yet, the author of this article is a guy. With kids.
Lol, holy fuck people are becoming giant pussies, "oh noes i have to make a choice".
They are communist pussies. I don't believe it is PTSD from overload, then it is that communism creates a fear of making the wrong choice. They'd rather have someone tell them which one to buy. Society is too materialistic, even with groceries. I bet the most sought after item to loot is still Nike sneakers.
Leftists also think the choice they make for themselves is the best choice for everybody. Thus, there is no need for choices because they have the best one.

Yeah; they are afraid of buying the wrong orange juice. Which one again was it that was associated with the right? Which one was it that donated to killing babies? If I buy the wrong one, the comrades will take my house and i'll have to go live with them!

Don't be fooled. It's the Atlantic.
They are pushing for fewer choices for us so that we happily accept their oligarchy. Fuck these people.
and it's fucking orange juice. It's not a car. It's not whether or not to marry your wife/husband. It's orange juice.
You make the wrong choice you just buy a different kind the next time. How else are you even supposed to know what you like?
Just buy what your Mom bought. You will like it.
giant pussies and giant authoritarians
they can't make decisions so we must all go without the option of having choices
Why can't The State wake me up in the morning and brush my teeth? Such a chore, taking care of myself...
I'll take things a socialist says for $400 Alex
"People need less choice, not more!"
lol.. "Hey Adam, I think you need fewer names, not more. You're just Adam Petty now."
Adam "Flaming" petty
I know, Communism will solve that !
"There is no other option. Face the wall."
That's how I feel about 9001 genders. How do I pick the right one? Limit the options to two.
The cereal aisle 😂 it's really the Particle Dessert aisle.
I buy two cereals: Generic frosted mini wheats and generic rice krispies (an excellent substitue for Panko, btw!)
the good info is always in the comments
thank you!
Cornflakes and potato chips crushed make a delicious chicken coating
Pretzel coated pork chops, chef’s kiss.
That sounds good
Omg Will DEFINITELY try it! I usually make my pork chops with kmeli suneli which I highly recommend (perfect with lobio, also a Republic of Georgia 🇬🇪 recipe) you can order the spice online or get it from a Russian market). They are delicious but I’m definitely gonna try pretzel pork chops, thank you for the suggestion!

We made potato chip crusted chicken a few weeks ago, my kids are still asking me to make it again! It’s really delicious! Definitely recommend!
Oh you mother fucker. I forgot how much I love frosted mini wheats! Well, guess I'm eating some roundup!
My kids love them too but I don’t buy cereal any longer lol because of roundup.
What's the deal with cereal and roundup?
Wheat is sprayed with it so cereal is supposedly concentrated with residue of roundup. I try and avoid wheat other than my home made bread and biscuits.
Thanks. One more thing to be concerned about haha
It really never ends! Everything is trying to kill us.
Yeah I haven't had it in many years, butt fuck it. I need to eat them now!
Sugar tastes good.
Dude get organic cereals, so much pesticide and gmo bullshit in the regular stuff.
You are right, but I like Post Raisin Bran, not Kelloggs. Walmart doesn't carry Post. We only have Walmart close by and I have to have it delivered.
Gluten free wheat Chex is also pretty damned good for breading.
The market decides how many OJ brands is too many, commie
It's mental illness.
If you're literally so paralyzed by "choice" that you leave the store without anything, you are suffering from a mental illness that is destroying the quality of your life.
Instead of getting help.. this dipshit decided to crow about it. Which makes sense, this entire article is about fashion anyways, and he wears his illness like a badge of honor.
This article may be stupid, but pay attention - if you start seeing this sort of opinion showing up frequently, you are probably witnessing a social engineering campaign.
Exactly what I was thinking. Like TED talks where people like Bill Gates warn you about something that will actually start happening in a year or two.
If you see more of this type of article, you will know a problem is coming.
I've never suffered from this problem because I don't recognize 90% of the products in grocery stores as food.
Remove everything with canola oil, corn syrup, artificial flavorings, "edible" plastics, anything that's fluorescent orange colored, all of the out of season Frankenstein fruit and vegetables, all of the low quality and hormone saturated meats... and what remains is milk, rice and dried beans.
Squash, Carrots, Snap Beans, Butt Roast, Peas, Corn, Cauliflower, Red Wine, Celery, Onion, Garlic Cloves, Green Chilis.
And that's just my lunch :D
EDIT, To Clarify, I'm in Texas, they're all in season :D
Anything organic for me, that whittles it right down to 1 choice lol
Frozen fruits and vegetables are the healthiest. Then meat and fish.
It's TDS. If the juice were any color but orange they would have bought it.
Damn, Atlantic Writer defeated by a shelf of orange juice. Went specifically to the store for orange juice, couldn't decide, and left empty handed with his tail between his legs, head sunk down and his testicles eviscerated.
He never had testicles lol.
Analysis paralysis comes from lack of leadership skills. Even if it’s only leadership skills for leading yourself through life. Not making a decision is a decision.
Now do the salad dressing aisle. lol.
That's one I enjoy spending time in.
I can't deny that 99.99% of all choices on the store shelf are identical and most product choice is basically asking which package design you prefer, but it's not for this guy to say.
I tried that once, it was unremarkable as vodka goes. Everybody always buys it once and keeps the bottle, a buddy of mine made his into an oil lamp.
You'd think then thst LGBTQAPFDSOML+ would be too many choices too
This is a common thing about consumer behavior
It’s why Costco typically carries 1-2 brands of an item and why iPhones only had 1 model for a decade
What the fuck kind of weak-willed, simple-minded moron can't make a decision on what groceries to buy? If the stupid fuckwit is being truthful, he may as well get a lobotomy for all the use he makes of his brain.
Of course, he's not being truthful, he's trying to normalize living in a commie hellscape where you have no choice about anything, not even what juice to buy. GET FUCKED COMMIES!

Try to give a woman a choice between several things where all of the choices are essentially equal. The majority of them cannot make a decision on their own.
It's nearly 100% impossible for a leftist.
Yup. Pick a few criteria* and take the cheapest that matches. Absolutely not complicated.
If ever it comes down to a shortlist (rarely) I just set a ten second timer in my head and just grab whichever's closest if I haven't decided by then. If there's a shortlist, there's no difference worth worrying about.

If you struggle to choose an orange juice, the problem is with you, not the selection. Being decisive isn't something that just becomes impossible when there are many options.
She stared at the orange juice for hours because it said "concentrate"...
“You only need one source of news, us.”
How about less choice in libtard news outlets?
Choice is a good thing. Indecisive people are the ones who can't figure out what they can be happy with and move on.
"What I want is exactly what everyone else needs"
Most retarded philosophy ever.
"REEEE! I CANT HANDLE CHOICES AND INDEPENDENT THOUGHT!!!!"
Yeah... life can be a challenge sometimes. Often, when standing before the selection of canned goods and having trouble deciding, I think back to how the storming of Normandy was and realize that our generation has the same level of fights as the last.
"I don't need a MAN to tell me how to live my life! I'm a strong independent woman!"
Five minutes later
"Help daddy government! I can't make a decision on orange juice!"
You think these dimwits know what Normandy is? They probably think it's a historical troon that USA assaulted.
I mean... it's like a shopping mall store right? Black Friday rush? Storming into Normandy for those awesome sales or something? /s
Two choices. Rich peoples choice, and poor people's choice.... (If it's in stock)...
Dirty commie bastards....
Bernie Sanders gets a commie boner
Leftists like to be spoon fed by corporations, they want to have their choices removed, the sheep mind doesnt like to think for itself. This is how it goes, this is why they accept communism, they want to be controlled. They give up their freedom and choice for the easy peace of being a slave.
And corporations are abusing this mentality, why is it so hard to find products without sugar, added sugar. Everything is filled with corn syrup and artificial crap.
We truly are in clown world. I want more choices damn it!
Next: "people need fewer news sources, choice paralysis"... 🤬
these people... seriously, it must be tough trying to come up with a new take on things! and not just any take, but a hot take. something that really contradicts established culture. because... you know... whatever was done in the past is wrong. because... it was done by old white men.
i wonder if this person took into account the need for variety because of certain peoples ailments and tragedies they faced. or maybe the "journey" someone went through to find the right orange juice that met their needs! me personally, i like my orange juice made with soy juice because its gluten, and peanut free.
LMAO it's called Aldi's, and it's from a part of the world that didn't have many blix ppl until recently.
The name of the store is actually Aldi. The brothers that own Aldi North and South in Germany own Trader Joe’s and Aldi, respectively, in the USA.
We just got an Aldi here and we love it! Actually went there yesterday in fact! So much cheaper than most other stores although you can’t get everything there, it definitely helps our money stretch and in this economy that’s a definite bonus especially because we have five kids.
The rodent class who push this agenda know exactly what they are doing.
No commie, but it is overwhelming going shopping for simple shit.
It's not really a commie take to dislike arbitrary waste, but there must be some dude out there who loves that we have 400 identical varieties of maple syrup to choose from, so we'll just keep doing it.
It's all owned by the same five companies anyway.
Artificially maple-flavored corn syrup, you mean? I’ve rarely seen more than 1 option for actual maple syrup in a given store.
Exactly. I don’t buy corn syrup. I’m trying to get my kids to switch to cane syrup, it’s significantly cheaper lol. But no corn syrup “maple syrup” in MY house, dammit!
You make an infuriating point, but that's apparently what the market wants? I rarely understand this "the market".
Aunt Jemima did nothing wrong!
