There was an article in cars magazine saying that cyclists were especially polluting. In teir study (in europe), the hypothetical cyclist was only eating Argentine beef lol. So no I do not swallow it.
The Constitution was not damaged, according to the National Archives Museum, which said that the powder was found to be a combination of pigment and cornstarch.
Liberals were in power between 2009 and 2017. The fact that the line didn’t budge is the proof that you guys really don’t give a shit outside of election time.
I wish we could ban political astroturfing ugh
EDIT: this is a serious problem, seriously. Anybody knows an instance that is not infected by american libs?
Isn’t twitter american? I just don’t care about the US that much, I’m looking for a social media platform where people are not assumed to be from there and where half of the news aren’t from there.
And if possible free of libs and partisan politics in general, it would be great. Any pointer?
In the political cosmology of something that calls itself the “Democratic Party,” it is now a widespread belief that support is owed from below rather than earned from above. Instead of building popular coalitions by seeking to represent the hopes, dreams, and interests of a democratic majority, a posture of absolute,...
It’s not divisive to state what is obvious to anybody with a tiny bit of political knowledge. Liberals are only the left in the US because the center there is the right. In normal countries, liberals are not the left. Sorry to break your bubble.
“What about the disabled / elderies / social anxiety” must be the most bad-faith argument lmao. My friend got disabled because of cars. Most car drivers are not disabled, are they? Exemption for handicapped people already exists.
We had a perfectly fine system to download videos without the need for polluting data-centers but capitalism took it from us. Remember gnutella (shareaza). Remember the pirate bay.
What they are advocating for (“Energy efficiency, human efficiency, financial efficiency”) sounds liberal to me. The Lean movement was something along the line of taylorism to squeeze more money out of the worker.
Seriously I am all for decreasing consumption in data-centers. Now we all had this guy who takes planes and take his cars everyday and produce more plastic than a family of four being like “curious, you’re on your computer, did you know that pollutes too?”. Sounds like deflation to me.
Several hundred protesters briefly broke into a plant owned by chemicals group Arkema near Lyon in southeastern France on Saturday to protest against alleged pollution from the site and eight people were arrested, local authorities said on Saturday.
“I’ve been [in] helicopters in the West, in the Southwest and Northwest, flown over more land burned to the ground, all the vegetation gone, than the entire state of Maryland,” Biden told his audience, partly referring to the wildfires now raging in Texas. “The idea there’s no such thing as climate change, I love that,...
Joe Biden is the president of the most polluting country (per capita) on the planet excluding little island. I do not care about his feeling about climate change.

Have you notice how the general opinion is that people getting hit by cars somehow deserved it? My best friend was hit by a text-and-drive kindof woman. He was an athlete and now he can’t walk more than a few hundred meters.
Why would they be? You entirely missed the point of the meme lol there is no one solution. Sure it would be great to have cheap electric vehicle for some usage. It should not be the default and especially not a requirement. How hard is it to understand?
Also the pre-emptive strike doesn’t help to express sympathy towards your idea.
