Web 3 was never anything but marketing nonsense. To be fair, that was true for Web 2.0 as well. Web 2.0 was always about rebranding the internet as a profitable thing for high finance to invest in following the 2000 dotcom crash. It had nothing to do with any particular technology, and O'Reilly's manifesto about Web 2.0 was filled with nothing but marketing slogans. After all, he was just a knock-off "Windows ME for Dummies" book publisher who stumbled on a con that San Francisco financiers loved to use. Almost 20 years later the crypto weirdos - who had been at their own con for the majority of the intervening years - thought that making a sequel of O'Reilly's Web 2.0 con would be an excellent idea. It's bullshit all the way down and always has been.
Yeah, and telling people to just pay for a VPN isn't a great answer either - that's just another fucking pay-forever subscription with the price rises of Netflix plus the added jank and nonsense that comes with being a copyright infringement hobbyist.
Maybe I'll just cancel everything and do totally offline ripping of borrowed physical media from the public library, like some kind of pirate hermit.
and the male gaze-haters sicko, that's a good one
I have no idea if that's bullshit or not, but this is definitely turning into a tragic bodycount measuring contest. I'm outta here. 
Yes coal is indeed very bad and needs go away immediately. But I'm not so sure if coal being bad makes radiation cancers from Chernobyl, Fukushima, Three Mile Island, Sellafield, etc etc etc not worth caring about.
I really don't want to play top trumps over which tragic disaster is worse by measuring bodycounts, as this is all way too grim and I think we can agree that the worst case scenarios for all of these things are awful in their own distinct ways. But that number you put for nuclear is difficult to believe. Where did you find it?
Yeah a dam will wreck a valley. But a nuclear station can irradiate a whole region and coal ruins the planet.
Every modern law of economics? 
Tidal, hydroelectric dams, and geothermal should all together be able to cover a pretty significant part of the Earth, shouldn't they?
I’ve heard from multiple old dads who read books about war that Churchill knew about Pearl Harbour in advance and said nothing so that the Americans would enter the war. But I have no idea if that’s true or just silly old stories passed down from dad to dad.
Halloween needs to conduct a defensive first strike on November to put an end to the continuing provocation of Christmas’ aggressive expansion across the calendar.
