Even a broken clock can be right twice a day...
Can't believe I'm saying this about Mitchty boy, but it's the best compliment he will ever get from me.
We are boned and Earth is going to ice-age us, eventually. After raising the sea level and flooding many inhabitated areas, turning arable land into desert while our weather system takes a dive.
Winter hasn't even properly set in where I live, and it's basically November. It's still 13c outside...
US police remind me of the school bully who used to hurt everyone they could, only to run crying foul if anyone ever fought back.
Exactly this. I am no fan of Google, but it's the devil I know.
It's quite the opposite of what they want, It would probably mentally break them to see actual space and planets being a globe or they would just say "LOL NICE DIGITAL WINDOWS, THIS SHIT AINT REAL!!!!1111ONEONEONE".
It's a big problem in this day and age. People arguing ferociously against things that have already been proven. For some reason...
I'd trust a Huawei phone less than I would a Google phone. Much less.
From where I sit, it's literally mostly about dirt, rocks and oil.
This is just a continuation of the crusades from the medieval period. Let's also not forget just how strategically important Israel's location is to the Western countries as it's their springboard into the middle east.
There are a lot of different factors and nuance and play, but essentially it's over religion and "holy lands".
Can we not do some global crowd funding to send anti-vaxxers and flat earthers into space, preferably a one way trip?
Asking for my sanity.
He's a budget Blair. I'm surprised he hasn't purged all of the left leaning Labour members yet, I thought he had completed that a while back.
Social media. I use some begrudgingly and most others I avoid like the plague.
We could, but we won't. Have you seen who's currently in charge of our country? Even if Starmer gets into power, no ceasefire will be called for.
Our country has a vested interest and lots of money invested in Israel, same as the US.
Meanwhile Reddit is the Israel propaganda machine, so I guess swings and roundabouts?
Definitely one way of trying to . One question though, who's going to pay for all that?
The mental health services are not going to be free and the gun owners certainly won't be cool with paying it. The government definitely won't pay for it...See, this is why I say I have no faith that the problem won't be solved any time soon, if ever.
Too many hard and expensive choices to make that will prove massively unpopular with large parts of either side of the argument.
Gun ownership is a touchy issue to the US population in general. shrugs
Ease of access to firearms is a massive part of the problem, but saying that I will be downvoted even more. Add in the fact there are people having mental issues and breakdowns more than ever, and you can see why mass shootings are increasing.
Simply put, it's not an issue that is going to be solved any time soon, if ever. It is a highly politicized issue, which you can tell by the ferocity of the responses I got to my flippant original comment.
Gotta make them batteries!
I'm no gun expert or psychologist, but I am fairly certain mentally stable people don't go round shooting up public places.
Fighting to the death over dirt and rocks, basically.
We should be reaching for the stars right about now, but here we are dying for dirt, rocks and oil...
As the honorable President biden said "It's just the price of war".
War unfortunately brings death to innocent civilians in droves. We are still such a barbaric race :\
