we’re going to watch civilization fall while these fuckwits claim nothing is wrong and cough the atmosphere cough isn’t a problem as we all melt
Then let’s stop trying to gain their acknowledgement or assent and pass laws to fix the problem they’ll have to follow regardless of how they feel.
Over half our elected representatives think just like them. Can’t pass laws as long as they’re in power. So we need to vote them out first.
Same energy as Tom Morello.
I love that people are surprised that a man who prominently wrote “ARM THE HOMELESS” on a guitar he uses on stage is leftist as fuck. Like, I don’t know what you expected dude.
Arming everyone doesn’t sound leftist as fuck, then again, it’s ridiculous for something like political ideology to be represented by a one dimension
It doesn’t take a degree to surmise that pumping our environment full of noxious gas is a bad idea.
Would leave your car running in the garage with the door closed? Earth = Big garage with lots of cars. That should be easy enough for anyone to understand
You would think. Ugh. It makes complete sense to me, but these big picture things are kinda lost on many. There is a lot of angry, and confused people in my part of the world. In the end, I can’t blame them, as they’re apart of a larger system with the same mentality, and many have never been given a chance to see outside their own survival within that system. I can try though, and hope. Part of me feels the climate deniers are just that. In denial… about their own place in the world, but do feel these consequences in their bones. Some are just outright selfish and really don’t care.
Blurring the names is a rule on both reddit and lemmy to avoid doxxing. It’s not my rule, it’s the rule of the lemmy.world instance and lemmy, which everyone must abide by. It isn’t specifically stated in the lemmy rules whether you need to censor the names of public figures, so I’ve just been censoring the usernames and handles of the general public. Should the rules of the instance and lemmy change, the rules of this community will be adjusted accordingly.
Secondly, there’s nothing in lemmy’s, the instance, or the community rules that says posts must be recent. At the moment my main goal is for people other than me to post content; there are 29 posts here and 28 of them are mine. As long as it meets the posting guidelines and doesn’t break any rules, I don’t care where you got it or how old it is.
Thirdly, I have sticked a post to the top of this community asking for moderators, feedback and input on how this community is run. That is the proper place to leave your feedback, but I would prefer something more helpful than “it’s dumb”. This would be the perfect opportunity for you to post your own content as an example of what you’d like to see here. Volunteer your time to help moderate this community, or make a suggestion on how old recent posts should be in the sticked thread, for other subscribers to weigh in. Or contribute in literally any other way than just being critical, because I’m just one person trying my best.
Idk maybe she should get a PhD in every scientific field that she gets curious about /s
How many PhDs do the people saying “listen to actual science” have you reckon?
