I don’t think there’s a reasonable way out of this hole, but I’d rather be in a world with more forest, so I’ll keep suggesting that.

Very true. A forest is definitely preferable

Trees are pretty good at carbon capture :)

I listened to a podcast a couple of months ago that was about some international agreement that got rid of a bunch of pollution that was going to make this year MUCH warmer.
I’ll find it if anyone’s interested.

Exactly. All we can do is try to improve.

Southern Ontario checking in. We did that too. ‘Gyped’ and ‘indian giver’ were also things.
Although, I had an indigenous friend one summer who quickly became popular because he was very funny. He used to use slurs against all of the white kids all of the time. It was the most effective anti racist tactic I’ve ever witnessed. None of us were comfortable using a lot of the slurs that were baked into our culture, unless it was with our friend and a smile.

(Assuming you’re American)

Lots of Americans seem to think that state media is a bad thing. Lot’s of countries get it right. Especially after it’s first been implemented.
I’d often rather have a government (obviously not Russia, China, or in my case Canada) over some oligarch controlling it. Murdoch hasn’t exactly been doing good things wherever he goes

Guy got 87%.
You can’t get 87% of people to agree on pizza toppings for the night

The guys unhinged. He puts Matt groening orbiting the center of some great conspiracy while at the same time his main point is correct.

I’ve seen people fall down these rabbit holes and have them trigger something that drives them away from sanity. It’s sad af

Did he just Reichstag an actual attack?

Thanks. That was a solid reference that was way over my head

Targeting civilians

Why the instant hostility? This isn’t reddit. Calm down

There’s been reports of Odessa being attacked with some type of long range explosive.
If you’ve been paying attention to the fronts, those usually indicate that Russia is putting boots on the ground soon.
Russia needs to close Ukrainian access to the sea. They’re losing too many ships to the sea drones. They need to take Odessa to win.
It would be the biggest escalation in this war since the second invasion of 22.

This could have turned into such an easy win.
If they’d let compassion drive their actions, hamas would have lost lots of support

The Israeli operatives have been out in full swing lately.
Evidence that some rape happened is a lot different from a mass scale rape attack.

‘Real genocide’…
Wow.

The value in reddit is the user base. It’s multiple times bigger than your examples.
In most conversations you’ll still see people using it for niche communities. It’s almost too big to fail

The vast majority of companies arent profitable with their IPO. This is a relatively recent phenomenon.
The total IPO/year has tanked too.
All I’m getting at is that overall trends no longer apply as business and how stocks are approached has changed a lot

I’m pretty opinionated, and some of them aren’t popular. I’m fairly certain I get a few accounts down voting everything I put out there.
Good news, is that I see evidence from other instances, but not a lot on my home.
