I think he was hit with some kind of grenade the police fired. There seems to be a huge hole in the center. How is he not paralyzed??

It’s hard to get the counter message out there loudly enough to be heard over the din of propaganda.

Perhaps if we put a green hat on and start pursuing the message more vigorously.

Being passive and legal will get us all killed.

It’s going to be REALLY wild seeing these same fucks starting bitching and whining about being gunned down in the streets. They start a hot civil war and act all tough and shit, but watch who pisses themselves first.

FAFO I guess

Not disagreeing necessarily, but it feels really bad to voluntarily sacrifice human lives so that we can build good will with the public.

It’s a matter of perspective and who would die if such and such happened vs this other thing.

As the old saying goes, the ends justify the means, right?

To be honest, I’d be perfectly willing to die on much smaller, less impactful hills. Some days I feel like dying in a valley, far away from anything, but then I see some real bullshit going on and get mightily pissed off.

What I’m saying is, dying isn’t the worst thing you can do in life.

“in this video essay I will describe the pervasive conditions in our current society and their roots…”

Visiting China is pretty safe, easy and affordable (after the flight). Not a great government but that is mostly a pain in the ass for the citizens.

I’ll be honest, Iran doesn’t seem to target military assets all that much. Or at least, the air defence is much better around those areas. Which isn’t crazy.

I remember seeing this almost a decade ago now I swear.

While the attack and deaths are sad and should not be celebrated, what should be celebrated is the crushing of the fantasy that Israel will not face any consequences for behaving like demons. I hope every Israeli is unable to sleep due to that realization. Perhaps something would change.

Cry harder.

That’s what has been infuriating me about any news coverage of any protest anywhere. They treat property with the moral equivalence of newborns. They treat property with more compassion than the common people.

What you have just told me is that you have not done any serious research into the actual effects of climate degradation. Whether or not you had a personal experience of there being lots of insects, it is a fact that their populations are in freefall. Fertility in many clades of life is dropping off as well due to excess heat (yes that’s a thing).

Agriculture will collapse regardless of this as our soil fertility plummets as well. There are always more fertilizers, that drain into the ocean and cause algal blooms that create dead zones where there is no oxygen. Happens more and more.

Idk why you are so confident that it will not dramatically affect you.

Which country will have an election that he will run in?

Where are all of the insects and small animals in those forests? In many places around the world the populations of these creatures have decreased by 75% over the last 50 years. That grass you went out to touch is an invasive species that we have cultivated so widely that it is eradicating the breeding grounds of insects.

I know that you think your personal experience is more telling than decades of research and data by scientists but nature is not ‘persisting’ in the way you claim. It is slowly dying.

I’m one of those doomers. Looking at the science, at the data and the new findings that come out every year, it’s not even really debatable that all of civilization will collapse within the next century.

Genuinely. That’s where we’re at.

1.5C is dead. 2C is dead. 3C is on its last legs and we are on track for 8-10C avg temp rise globally. The oceans will be practically dead acidic wastes by then, the insect populations will collapse and anything that needs pollinated will follow suit.

I am all for dying in the streets defending what we have from fascists and preventing them from making the last few decades we have exponentially worse, but I think it’s wrong to claim that we can have a good future.

We can perhaps save a few million more people by the end of the century so that the total human population will be maybe near a billion.

That’s the best I can offer. Mass starvation and death. Sorry
