Yes, but what a strange headline. Many people in general don’t know what it is, or what the impact is. And obviously education about environmental damage can slightly impact purchasing habits.
So … What did we learn from this article? I have no idea.
That’s a risk of reading the news in general. For many people, it’s helpful to log in less frequently. Remember, people write about things important to them, and that includes bad situations, of which there were and will always be tons of.
If the streaming services are opaque, don’t watch anything on them! DVDs from the library, or YouTube or whatever, those are transparent. Not to praise YT, because it has other issues.
No no no. You can just post and hope that it complies with the rules that you didn’t read, and then if someone takes it down, you have the choice to either complain or cope.
Twenty plus years we could have shared pop culture. If it was on the radio or popular cable TV, maybe many people saw it. But now there’s too much information, period. Everyone specializes. If you expect people to know their memes, you’re pressuring them to consume the same media they do. Not cool.
So, float the meme, why not. But expect it to flop. Be happily surprised when it doesn’t.
Clinical narcissism is rare, and if you know of anyone who has it, you won’t ask the questions you asked because it’s simply a different issue.
So maybe you think that narcissism is equivalent to bring selfish, using a more casual definition of the term. If so, I think again you’re mistaken. There is some overlap, but they certainly aren’t equivalent.
Oh dear, you’ve already forgotten about Fukushima, and it was only 13 years ago. It was a safe power plant, until it wasn’t, and then the city was destroyed.
Oh well, nobody could have predicted it. (Except for all of those people who did predict it. But let’s not worry about them. Let’s just forget about the whole event.)
I notice how you didn’t write what country you’re from. That suggests a lack of confidence, that you are expecting people to call you out on it.
But I could be wrong. I’ve been long before. What country?
Oh this is getting interesting. Now you’re telling me there’s some massive Iranian propaganda machine that’s getting all around the globe, and somehow it’s magically stronger than the U.S. propaganda machine. If that’s true, can we just fire all of the top brass in the Pentagon because they’re basically incompetent?
If what you’re saying is accurate, but seems like people ought to lose their jobs.
No. It’s not “just rioting”. Try that again without the value judgment.
We see this type of hidden judgement on a regular basis. The key words are “just” and “only”. It’s an annoyingly effective rhetorical device, because the statement looks like an objective description of things when it’s not.
It’s clear that Israel has bigger guns. Why would you even mention that? The question here is morality, not munitions.
By the way, how many of the dead actually wished for all Jews to die? Of course most of them didn’t. Of course most of them just wanted to live their lives in peace. Sigh.
My friend, you can define words however you like, but the numbers of dead bodies won’t change because of it.
What mistake did you make? That’s definitely relevant, since the definition of “mistake” is playing a major role.
The racists and xenophobes will never accept you. There’s no fixing some people’s brains. The good thing is, especially as you get older and able to do various kinds of work, you don’t have to associate with those kinds of jerks very often. It’s your community, it’s your country, and they don’t get to be the gatekeepers of who counts as local, no matter how hard they try.
“So I guess this is where I tell you what I learned - my conclusion, right? Well, my conclusion is: Hate is baggage. Life’s too short to be pissed off all the time. It’s just not worth it.” ― American History X
“I am not altogether on anybody’s side, because nobody is altogether on my side, if you understand me: nobody cares for the woods as I care for them, not even Elves nowadays.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers
Liberals are not leftists. You can choose your own definitions, but I would say that many so-called liberals are actually pro-capitalist anti-worker centrists. And the center is not so far from the center-right. So many liberals don’t hate conservatives. On the other hand, many conservatives bundle liberals and leftists together, because complexity is so irritating, making it easy to hate the entire group (even though it’s actually at least two groups).
And quite obviously, many liberals and leftists hate some conservatives. You aren’t alone. That being said, hate is an emotion, and however you feel is totally fine because it’s your life. At the same time, hate itself is not constructive. Many people read and write about politics online because we want to learn about or change our world. If the content you’re creating doesn’t help with either of those goals, some people are going to ignore or down vote it.
Anyway, your community is surely out there, if you keep looking.
That depends who in the government you’re asking about. Every branch has their own motivation. For example, the military likes conflict happening elsewhere. Politicians want to be reelected. Racists like it when Arabs and Jews kill each other. And so on.
(Of course that’s a vast simplification, but you gotta at least say who you are talking about to get a meaningful answer.)
If you’re paying for SMS then it’s only because there are enough people like you. Sending email is free, or using Facebook or Instagram messaging, those are also free. If companies are charging for SMS it’s because they know that people like you are locked in.
And I’m not blaming you, because it’s hard when you have to change how you communicate, especially when a lot of the people around you are set in their ways.
Yeah, YT is down and on its way out. Because of course it is. They could have fixed comments years ago, but instead they made it worse with secretive shadow bans.
The easiest way to tell is to post the comment and then try to edit it. You’ll get an error if it’s already banned.
Try a Gilette razor with a battery in it that vibrates. Keep the electric razors far away. They’re too risky.
