Great response. Thanks for keeping things cool and professional, and respecting actually democratic values. I'm glad to see we had a great mod.

It must be really hard living in a black and white world, huh?

You think someone on here would lie or exaggerate for clicks?

This is true only if you look at the news and look at it from an anthropocentric point of view. Humans being horrible for the environment doesn't mean we can actually erase all life on Earth, it means we can change it enough that it will no longer support US, but life continues at its own rhythm, we are oarr of that rhythm, not separate from it.

Same with things like aggression. Aggression is the base behavior for carnivorous animals, but it is not for humans. One of the ways I'm which we mark the age of humanity is by looking at the oldest remains of a human which a healed leg fracture, a human that could could not contribute to their band and only could have survived with the help of other humans, compassion for unrelated others is a himan-only trait.

Are agent's Smith's words true? Yes, but incomplete, he is taking a few humans to characterize us all, but there is more to humanity than its animal behavior. This is what the movies are about.

I mean, I genuinely think that all we need is a *How to unionize for dummies" like a video or guide. I'm pretty clever, pretty Marxist and I still found myself overwhelmed when I wanted to start the process in my last job. Calling a local Local didn't help much either.

Sounds like a "not my problem" kind of problem & I don't see why I should care.

How much of every 1$ spent on HP merchandise makes it to to Rowling's pocket? Because there is a big difference between being a patron at a business and consuming a narrative product. Further, do you think it's the billionaire that you're affecting with your choice? Or the thousands of employees that will be laid off in a heartbeat before said billionaire loses a single dime?
