That’s true until it isn’t.

The way you change that is election reform. Not thoughts and prayers and spoiler votes when one of the 2 big parties is running a wannabe-dictator.

Think, if fools in Florida didn't vote 3rd party in 2000 you'd never have bush or the war in iraq, and we might have given a shit about global warming.

Did you just scoff at the idea of competition improving a market?

USA strikers should take notes

This may be unpopular but the marraige model was never good for women in the west, and Im glad we are free of it.

We were expected to be live-in bang-maid-mothers. Women were lobotomized during the 'golden 1950s' that some (often conservative men) worship.

I think I am starting to prefer a model where I live together in groups with friends/ family for protection and support.

yeah its been 'fun' talking about this on Lemmy and Reddit at the same time.

On reddit, I'm an anti-semite. On lemmy, I'm a racist zionist.

In reality I understand the paradox of tolerance extends to fundamentalist abrahamic religions, which are all intolerant themselves, and therefore should not be tolerated.

When do you start the timeline though? The Palestine / Israel conflict has been going for 100 years right? Are you comfy saying Israel is the original aggressor?

Full disclosure: I dislike all fundamentalist religious societies. I don't believe in holy land, and I think people on both sides are reaping what they've sown by insisting they are gods chosen people. So I'm not defending Israel, but I'm not defending Palestine (and especially Hamas) either.

Everyone choosing a side between Palestine and Israel, but I'm going to take the mega unpopular stance of fuck both these people. Fuck the fundamentalist followers of Abraham, no matter what branch.

They would visit great violence on you in the name of their god if they had the chance. They are murderously self-righteous.

Just imagine the outrage and slandering of entire demographics that would be going on if there were a gay couple instead, or if this was something that happened at a drag show.

Just something to think about when you see your 'christian' republican relatives play this down

A lot of disposal vapes CAN be charged, they just can't be refilled!

It's always whatever it takes to help the old. The usa was made for and will die by the hands of 'the greatest generation' aka the greediest generation

All drug prices should be heavily regulated and capped, not just the ones old people need.

 

This opinion is based on reading people's thoughts on the internet and remembering what I was taught in my own time in school (where they essentially stumbled into teaching that humans were some kind of 'peak' of the evolutionary process)

I think people have waaaaayyyy too much faith in human intelligence and it's leading to the destruction of the world.

1- People keep thinking a scientist or a 'rich entrepreneur' is going to come up with some magic bullet to save the world, if we taught more about how other animals have tools, language, larger and older and more complex brain structures than us - People might realize it's similar to believing that dolphin will arise from the sea with some idea to stop climate change

2- we keep participating in these systems that have been created under the assumption that we are 'making progress'. I would argue that the minority of human invention represents real progress.

3- It leads to undervaluing the earth and taking it for granted. We worship ourselves as gods (literally). Almost everything you have wasn't invented by humans. It was the result of billions of years of selective design. Yet we teach as if things we harvest from nature were 'invented' by humans. In reality, we often have no way to produce or even of conceive of these things without a natural example.

Hey all, I’d like to grow some garlic at home in containers.

Problem is I live near Phoenix, Arizona USA so it’s quite hot outside most of the year.

Anyone have experience want to share some tips? I noticed some garlic bulbs starting to sprout in my fridge and thought I might be able to start some indoors from that.


I dont know how to crosspost, but I made the same post here

if others come looking for advice and find this post, might be answers there too

I wish everyone would embrace this view so we could start talking implementation details instead of the endless ideological warfare. These capitalists and communists might as well just make a fucking church out of it already, so much dogma.

I kind of agree, but it's also shitty he's involved with the PGA/Saudis now
