Many of the costs are still there and largely understated: Huge concrete foundations for windmills, toxic chemicals in solar panels that leech into the soil beneath them, etc.

It's a huge cost jump. Wind power is especially expensive. Meanwhile China keeps burning coal and dumping CO2 into the air. Why aren't we sanctioning China until they reign in their massive carbon foot print?
"And for no reason at all..."
A few years ago it was, "It's a private company and they can do what they like" "right of association". When it was "hate speech" everyone was defending the "private company" defense. Now that it's porn people care?
Why are people so eager to shield vaccines from safety testing? If they are safe, then they shouldn't fear having to undergo proper testing.
I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is - adding backdoors into encryption on OS level - "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY - let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals it needs to be stopped, post haste
You're so close. So many crisis we face are manufactured. Immigrants were invited here to use as leverage. Roe vs wade was never codified to keep it as leverage. If politicians solved problems they wouldn't have anything to use to motivate their base.
Robin expressed regret about taking hormones. He needed therapy, not titty skittles.
Libertarianism: Gay couples defending their weed farm with guns.
Be the terror they are afraid of.
Yes, be a good little slave and never rise up to oppose your masters. The government is desperate to catch some domestic terrorists so there are a lot of glowies and they far out number anyone with a spine, but that is because they are legitimately afraid of how effective violence can be.
You missed the point. They opened 20 centers, make a big show about one, that one gets temporarily vacated, but the other 19 new ones are still operating, as well as however many old ones existed before 2025. And you call that a victory?
How are those anti-Ice protests working out? And don't tell me the Alligator Alcatraz was a victory, opening it was a dumb stunt. ICE is still very much operating.
The old man invited the foreigner into the room specifically to do this.
Then the bobbies stop you and fine you for having a knife that you need for your trade job. It's a slippery slope. They won't stop at grabbing guns.
Take a look at the stats on knife crime. It's not bacon eaters doing it.
If you can be told what you can see or read, then it follows that you can be told what to say or think. Defend your constitutionally protected rights, no one else will do it for you
If you don't have any guns, how do you hold the government accountable? It will be like UK where they do whatever they want and the people have no recourse.
That shooting wasn't an isolated incident. This is a concerning trend.
New Stanford study reveals that workers between the ages of 22 and 25 have experienced a 13% relative decline in employment since the launch of ChatGPT in occupations most exposed to AI, which include customer service representatives, accountants, and software developers. We need UBI now, not later
Young adults wear diapers because they love having their ass pounded more than they love the dignity of choosing when to use the restroom. It is a symptom of poor self control worse than obesity. They make it a "kink" to disguise the consequences of their poor self control.
How about we tax the rich from the country which these refugees are fleeing?
Universal basic income is UNIVERSAL. That's a key detail. You can do a pilot that provides unconditional cash to a thousand people, but unless they all live in the same small town of 1,000 people, it's not truly testing UBI. That's where we see the big impacts, like boosted local GDP and less crime.
Guess who is inviting the immigrants here? Employers. I wonder why?
Employers import immigrants to undercut you and disrupt union organization attempts because they speak a different language.
If only we had someone seize power and unilaterally fix everything! I'm sure that would go over great!
It starts with not being able to say the n-word. Before you know it it's illegal to ask what a woman is.
If Putin feels threatened, truly threatened, he can destroy the entire world. Is that worth testing?
If the police tell you that you are under arrest and you disagree with them, do you shoot them and then shoot their backup? Or do you take the arrest and contest it later? There comes a point where resistance becomes suicide. But if you look more into this mass death is the real goal in this war.
Ragebait works.
You won't give up a small bit of land but you will sacrifice 1.7 million young men and risk escalation to WW3.
Who is telling you about this? Who controls those channels of communication? Remember: Even if it's "social media", it's the "algorithm" speaking to you using someone as a mouthpiece. Who controls that algorithm?
So you wish J.K. Rowling gets a chance to assault little girls in an opposite gender restroom?
The vaccine that doesn't stop you from catching it and doesn't stop you from spreading it given to the group least at risk and it needs to be renewed every 9 months. Why should kids be getting this again? This is, at best, a money making scheme.
I hate how egalitarianism has been abandoned in favor of equitarianism.
They may have in the past, but they certainly don't do that anymore. Keep in mind, reddit had a very large sub with a slur in the sub name as late as 2020. No one would argue that Reddit promotes hate speech in 2025.
The fight for free speech was in 2016 when they censored "hate speech". Then again in 2020 when they censored "misinformation". You need to fight for ALL free speech, not only the speech you care about.
You got it wrong. The boats are being sent as punishment for Brexit. The brexiteers wanted less migration.
Monopoly man got rich by importing the immigrants to suppress your wages. It also lets him charge more on your rent. He wins both ways!
They're trying to warn you. Women definitely are prone to having mid-life crises.
This is extremely ableist. By portraying Trump as short and fat you are perpetuating harmful body shaming behaviors.
How is throughput looking? Detention should be temporary.
Did you just assume xir gender?
Academia has completely ruined its reputation over the past two decades. It's turned from rigor into dogma. One of many examples: "Mein Kampf" republished as a feminist paper: www.jns.org/our-struggle... Academia did this to themselves.
Being nice is telling people what they want to hear. Being kind is telling people what they need to hear, even if it's uncomfortable.
History is good! Who owned the slave ships? Who founded Liberia and what was it's goal? Why was the ADL founded? What was the Business Plot? History is very interesting.

From the horse's mouth: www.obama.org/programs/my-... This isn't the whole story, but this is how it starts. Drinking age is technically not set federally, but states lose interstate funding if it isn't so it may as well be federal. There is way more to the story of fed police, but 300 characters.
A massive federal police force is exactly what Obama wanted. Really makes one think.
Protests are a threat. Until people are willing to back up that threat then the protests will continue to be ignored. Southpark said it best in the episode that was BANNED because the message was too powerful. And it wasn't banned because it depicted Mohammad.
Wait until you study evolutionary psychology and why gender roles have been so rigid throughout history.
Teaching young adults that African bushmen culture is equal to European culture doesn't give them marketable skills, but it does convince their bosses that they can be replaced with African bushmen.
The problem gets way worse when you understand the perverse incentives of safety nets that punish people for making wise educated choices.
Welcome to the problem of monetization. What are people supposed to do with education? They can't eat it or use it as a shelter. Most jobs require degrees, not education. There is no money in being educated.
Agenda 2030 is a big deal too.
Yeah, fuck Israel and fuck AIPAC. Free palestine!
Every UK petition is like this
There is a certain group known for having notoriously bad time preference. They may be a significant roadblock to adoption. Just saying.
It's a sound strategy. Paying for convenience is incentivizing companies to build artificial roadblocks. It is a detriment to humanity as a whole.
I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven
Zuckerberg doesn't allow his kids on social media. Really makes one think.
Don't click the discover tab. Even on my art account it's nonstop politics.
This one ain't a mystery. Empires growing decadent and falling has happened many times before. What doesn't help is that the ones calling out the falling empire today are called bigots. Really makes one think.
Monarchy ended because guns made kings mortal. Supervillians don't need superheroes to stop them.
It says nothing about Israel either.
If she says anything other than those words AIPAC will take her out.
"They got what they voted for" is supposed to make us complacent at the loss of rights. Both parties hate us and take turns abusing us but they pretend to oppose each other so we cheer for them like sports teams.
So you're with me to fight for our 1st amendment rights? I'm not talking about hunting rifles but actual armaments. It will make getting the rest of the rights back a lot easier.
Muh freeze peach! /s The first amendment is important. If you support suppressing any speech then those rules will be used to silence you too.
Neat. Now enforce that non-proliferation doctrine on Israel.
What are you waiting for? Someone else to do the job?
It's bigger than that, in the 1930s people were so terrified of random antifa violence that they rushed to the nazis for protection. Antifa contributed to the rise of the nazi regime.
I tried the discover tab here. It's quite gross.
Compared to democrats screaming in fear of colds and asymptomatic spreaders. They hid behind their masks like they were magic talismans. They did everything right, wore masks, got jabbed, got infected anyway.
The user experience of forced movie previews for forgotten junk is not pleasant.
They aren't free. The government is using your tax dollars to pay for them. And because it's not his money the government bureaucrat signing the check doesn't care how much it costs.
This is an age-old recipe. Empower criminals then use the criminality as justification to increase state control. Only opposing the second step is ignoring half of what these tyrants are doing.
If 1 pedo sits down at a bar and no one objects it's now a pedo bar.
Leave Facebook. Leave Instagram. LEAVE ANYTHING META. DO NOT give these guys any more of your data. I am 100% serious.
When the legal system stops functioning, how do you correct it? Hint: It's not pearl clutching.
I'm getting serious Jailbot vibes from this.
Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.
Thank you for making a strong argument for why a 300 character limit is so disastrous.
If the federal government didn't have this power it wouldn't be so dangerous. A smaller government would be a good thing.
Companies love DEI because it they know it helps prevent unionization. oneangrygamer.net/2020/04/leak...
