Everyone has manipulated. I'd imagine all here do and might not even know it.
Do you own any household cleaning products? Like bathroom cleaner or WD-40 or Hairspray or Makeup?
Well, since you do, you paid the companies when you purchased your product, your makeup, your bathroom cleaner, whatever. The companies set aside a portion of the product price for Legal fees.
By purchasing your products, you have, paid teams of lawyers at those companies...To argue, to manipulate juries and others, against the effects these products have on the environment, or animals, or personal injuries stemming from use of your products.
So you are manipulating people in courtrooms, by proxy, but still, by your purchase of these products.
Didn't know you were so immoral did you?
Relax. The content in this site on context to be expected, is Typology. The ONLY context which is amicably expected in the general sense. Keep to that and people will be more willing and share. Then you can learn from others and grow. Happy.
