I wouldn’t say I’m pro or against it. It’s quite expensive and politically controversial so I doubt building more of it will help us decarbonize. But I don’t support closing any plants that are currently running either, at least until we’ve fully decarbonized electricity production.
I’m unsure how this relates to anarchism though. Other than, if communities have control over what gets built near them I think it will be even more difficult to build more of them than it is now.
Seeing ICE fascists getting fucked and losing out on their bonus is funny to me. Maybe it wasn’t clear but I was specifically talking about that part.
Kinda hilarious if it wasn’t for the innocent victims of their violence.
As far as I can tell there is actually a big surge right now. They just stopped making idiotic trolly social media posts about it, and people are bored of it so the media is reporting on it less.
In my area (Northern California) this is by far the highest level of ICE activity we’ve seen so far.
Let’s all try to bring more attention to this. We need more people protesting, monitoring/filming ICE, basically creating as much attention and friction as possible.
In most areas, there are activists organizing to track ICE activity so I highly recommend volunteering with them. In my area NorCal Resist is the most prominent organization doing this work but if you’re elsewhere I am sure you could find a similar group with a web search.
LMAO I can’t believe they’re allowing those comments, that’s awesome. I guess they don’t know they can censor people on their videos.
Very cool. Evaporative cooling is neat in that it’s low-tech but it is often a bit climatologically awkward. It works great in dry climates, but then where do you get the water? And in humid climates you have the water supply but the cooling effect is greatly diminished. Still, there are certainly some places in the sweet spot where this may make sense
I imagine it would work great where I am in inland California but we couldn’t run it off or rainwater because we don’t get rain from ~ May - November. Still, in years with adequate water supply it’s a cool device.
Agreeing with communism = peak liberalism. Makes perfect sense.
I mean no (developed, non-indigenous) society has successfully implemented communism. I don’t think that should be a controversial statement. So is it that wild to say you don’t know how to implement it, even as a communist? The only reason it would seem that way is if you’ve taken the writings of communist thinkers not as theoretical proposals but as scripture that cannot be incorrect.
Keeps going to voicemail. Weird.
There’s nothing to check. Everyone knows the US isn’t a signatory to the ICC. What possible justification could there be to even look into?
Plus from my recollection he was pretty adamant about out. It wasn’t like “I doubt it’s possible but I’m going to turn over every legal stone just in case.” It was something he campaigned on doing.
I mean you’d have to be extremely stupid to think it’s legal to just arrest people without any domestic legal justification. Did he really not know?
Maybe they’re actually trying to boost it because they think it will create a civil war among democrats? The same way dems boosted Trump over previous conservatives.
Sort of. Lemonade stands are more hobby activities than a business run for profit though. Other than being illegal, a gang is just an ordinary business from an economic perspective.
I mean a lot of men (or other people attracted to femme bodies) like big boobs. Others don’t. It’s just personal preference. I wouldn’t say it’s purely a media thing.
Are gangs not capitalist enterprises?
Lol I wouldn’t know. Being awake at 6 isn’t something I’ve ever done voluntarily, let alone going for a run at that hour.
I mean it kinda is but the reality is people aren’t going to go backwards. However, that doesn’t mean we need to make the problem dramatically worse. I seriously doubt we’ll all be traveling this way but if we are it’s because we decided to value our convenience over the lives of the young and the poor.
Then they should study that directly rather than how to better waste huge amounts of fuel making the lives of the rich more convenient at the expense of everyone else’s survival.
More efficient than standard air travel? I seriously doubt that’s possible but I guess it would be less bad then.
The left is a broad collection of semi-related ideologies. I’m certainly not opposed to cooperating when we have a common goal but our politics are simply too different to form a single unified party or anything like that.
