borderline illiterateness
I'm sorry. But I have to. I'm sure you're a very smart person, and you speak well, and that this is likely just a tiny little oversight in an otherwise fine and literate mind.
But the irony of not knowing that it's actually "illiteracy" and not "illiterateness" is just a little too funny not to at least poke a bit of fun at.
Ummmm.....I'm going to have to go with "Because he's an idiot."
That's why industry people keep yelling about it, even though some very large scale attempts at it were already failures.
They'll keep pushing the scam for the same reason we all have to use paper straws; misdirection.
Opinions such as this simply don't understand that "oil and gas" isn't just "fuel".
There isn't any component of modern life that wasn't created with at least some level of a petroleum based product.
That "electric car" we rave about? Its tires are rubber. Its moving parts are lubricated. Its wires are sheathed and grounded by plastic. Its faux leather or nylon interior is petroleum based. Same thing if you ride a bike.
If we go into your house, Anything you own that has any amount of rubber, or plastic, or half a thousand other materials is petroleum based.
Getting rid of oil isn't nearly as simple nor as quick a process as opinions like this seem to want.
Yes, oil needs to be phased out. But it's a hell of a lot more complicated than hippies think.
You are either vastly underestimating the number of species on the planet, or vastly overestimating human domestication practices.
It's probably easier to list the things that aren't more popular than Ron DeSantis:
The basic idea of the moderated debate comes from Roberts Rules (I believe). Person 1 has 2 minutes to make his point. Person two has a minute to rebut. Person one than has another minute to respond to the rebuttal. Etc... Etc.... That comes straight from parliamentary procedure, which follows Roberts Rules.
In parliamentary procedure, its moderated by the speaker of the house, but in one on one debates its just a moderator.
Debates are, at their core, very very structured. Something Trump and co. don't handle well.
Thanks to trump, they think "debate" is just a fancy word for "argument". They're too dumb to even know what Robert's Rules of Order are, let alone ever actually read them or understand how they apply in an actual debate. They just think that mockery and aggressiveness count as "debate strategies" thinking that winning an argument is about making the other person piss down their leg.
They literally can't handle it when the other person doesn't actually cower before their insanity.
Jinkies!....I wonder what it could be...What a mystery, Scoob!
That's my strategy as well. I just don't know how many of us there are that are that committed vs the people who are "temporarily irate" and then go back with their next purchase because its "easier".
They quite literally tried to claim that they invented the rectangle with rounded corners....
