True. But it’s similar to cigarette smoking and tobacco companies. Sure, one perspective puts most of the responsibility on the consumer — no one is f...

Fossil fuel companies have caused roughly 28 trillion dollars in damages from 1991 to 2020. In terms of consequences— the next 20 years will cause muc...

So make it easier to come. Then people wouldn’t be “illegal.”
April 25, 2025 at 02:23
What’s funny about all this immigration talk is that everyone assumes there’s a problem. There isn’t. We should be letting even more people in. The en...

Fingers crossed.
April 22, 2025 at 03:14
All this is true— provided you swallow right-wing propaganda whole. In that Alternative Reality, all of this makes perfect sense.

So another climate thread degenerated into a argument about whether idiots should be allowed to spam and derail discussion. I still applaud your effor...

:up: Cruises are so awful for the environment, it’s insane.

When you’re a climate denier, data and evidence don’t matter. Better to go with one’s feelings.
April 05, 2025 at 22:53
Things that come to mind: 1. Focus on local issues: one’s workplace and town/city. Run for something, petition, vote, etc. Public utilities are a good...

Good point. I think the Trump thread move is great. I’d like to see something similar with climate change. But I’ve argued that already in “New Thread...

The Trump/Musk backed judge in Wisconsin lost. First real test of voter sentiment.
April 02, 2025 at 02:40
Who knew the world is now ending because of…vandalism of cars. I thought it was wokeness or Hunter’s laptop or something. Glad to stay up on the lates...

It’s a great move and I applaud it. :clap:
March 30, 2025 at 21:55
The waste! The fraud! The abuse! Oh my! Oh wait— it’s just more exaggerated, delusional bullshit. How shocking.
March 29, 2025 at 14:42
Changed. :up:
March 29, 2025 at 14:39
There goes the Donald Trump thread.

Yeah yeah yeah…Red Team does the same shit, if not worse, and we don’t care because Red Team Good. There’s not even an attempt to cover the dogmatism....

Trump and his loser nominees will inevitability screw up even more— only with the environment, the economy, foreign policy, healthcare, education, tax...

:lol: This is great. I can’t even see what you’re responding to, but I love it all the same.
March 22, 2025 at 20:05
I think this is fair. Compare how Obama was treated in conservative media — he held a coffee while saluting! He wore a tan suit! He asked for dijon mu...
March 22, 2025 at 19:48
Oh it’s definitely not business as usual. But I think we all know we’re well beyond that. From my perspective, the Republicans put this train in motio...
March 22, 2025 at 19:35
It’ll always appear as downplaying. Take a look at January 6th. What’s that, exactly? I myself don’t think it’s what the democrats make it out to be —...
March 22, 2025 at 16:47
Exactly. It’s just hilarious to watch. The spineless, principle-less, fact-free partisans are such fantastic hypocrites it’s quite incredible. January...
March 22, 2025 at 16:40
Two guys that shrug at January 6th and defend a genocide walk into a bar…
March 22, 2025 at 05:10
Yeah, that’d be funny or biting, if not for the fact that you’re too stupid to realize that was a joke. But keep trying.
March 21, 2025 at 21:31
My wish is that all the people that wished they never existed would be granted their wish. Just so I could stop hearing about it.
March 21, 2025 at 20:46
Oh a few cars set on fire. Poor billionaire, boo woo. Anyone remember the attack on the Capitol? “No one died! It’s just some property damage.” Anyone...
March 21, 2025 at 20:42
“Domestic terrorism.” When they do it, it’s terrorism. When we literally storm the Capitol because our cult leader told us the election was stolen, it...
March 21, 2025 at 19:24
On this site anyway. But check Twitter — it’s very common. Hence so many Tweet reposts; he spawns from there.
March 21, 2025 at 19:22
Excellent!
March 21, 2025 at 15:48
Please don’t encourage self-reflection. It’s not like this is a philosophy forum… Anyway — Please let him just continue. It almost always guarantees a...

Reality, brought to you by Twitter. Spreading those realities, one tweet at a time. Gives great joy to your average mental patient too.
March 21, 2025 at 01:39
People! We’re living in a new Renaissance! Brought about by the casino-bankrupting reality TV star! It’s REALITY! Why are you all laughing?
March 21, 2025 at 01:06
“Rubbing your faces in reality!” (“Reality” = the stupid Tweets I happen to like today.) Hey, whatever brings one joy. I get to have the joy of laughi...
March 21, 2025 at 01:04
Imagine coming to an internet philosophy forum to promote propaganda that everyone laughs at, day after day.
March 20, 2025 at 18:57
Projection. It’s fairly obvious you’re mentally ill, given that you’ve held some kind of a grudge for literally years (even after being ignored for th...
March 20, 2025 at 16:33
I really don’t think that’s in him. He doesn’t do complexity or nuance.
March 20, 2025 at 03:21
Only to disingenuous, sanctimonious internet twits. I agree it’s a waste of time — and childish — to lower myself to your level. Can’t help myself. Pr...
March 20, 2025 at 03:11
So ignoring court orders, threatening to impeach judges they disagree with, deporting green card holders because they don’t like what they say— you kn...
March 19, 2025 at 03:14
You were talking about democrats. Many would. As always, if the pretense is right, they’ll go right along. Probably not with Trump in office though. G...
March 15, 2025 at 18:27
46 is more than 33. But glad to see the popularity of genocide slipping downward a bit.
March 15, 2025 at 17:09
40% supported a war against Iraq. So why not?
March 15, 2025 at 17:07
Well yes. Maybe the Chinese forget about Taiwan too. Who knows?
March 15, 2025 at 17:06
They would likely support a war against Iran, many of them. They’ve already thrown in their support for genocide. We call that “sane” behavior now.
March 15, 2025 at 17:04
And who said anything about political parties?
March 15, 2025 at 17:02
:lol: Ukraine has been losing for literally years now. If you call annexing territory “losing on points,” that’s an interesting spin indeed. Russia wi...
March 15, 2025 at 16:54
Who said anything about Democrats? And no, they’ve been far from consistent. 40% voting for the resolution in 2002 is hardly what it would receive now...
