  • This is an Appeal to Futility fallacy, which can render any argument immobile. "Why vote, it doesn't matter anyway". "Why help the needy, my contribution won't fix the problem". "Why continue living, we're just gonna die anyway".

    If everyone thinks along your lines, society and the world basically just falls to bits. If the world suddenly adopted my view, climate change is basically solved, the risk of zoonotic diseases (COVID, bird flu, swine flu etc) basically stops, the risk of treatment resistant antibiotics hugely drops, conscious feeling creatures aren't tortured and killed for pleasure.

    The worst Monsanto vegies are absolutely more ethical than the best meat, for the planet, for your health and for the animal.

  • I (a vegan) got banned from there for finding the love of cows cloying. I said we shouldn't have to pretend cows are cute to convince others not to kill and eat them.

    It really isn't a place for even back and forth amongst friends, "no conversation - only agreement"

  • Damn the dairy industry is the worst for the world too. Wouldn't you say your morals are pretty flimsy if you'll give up on em to avoid looking cringey?

  • You'll never see it coming

  • You know how when you get put under for anaesthesia, and you don't notice the time you were gone? It's like a cut in the tape of life.

    What if death is like that, and BAM your consciousness re-emerges billions of years in the future the moment you die.

    But your consciousness is alone. And in pitch black nothingness. Forever.

  • I got into the wrong career lol

  • I hope my daughter gets to look up to women established in STEM fields.

    Seems like a busted world where there's more money in sex work than academia.

  • President Biden: My Legacy Is "I Kept My Word," "When I Said I Was Going To Do Something, I Did"

    Jump

  • This is such a milquetoast retort.

    You have such a misunderstanding of government if you think federal funding allocation is not fundamental change, it's a core function of government. Funding semiconductor production to reduce dependence on Taiwan has such far reaching consequences.

    Durr, unless ALL medications can be free, it's a worthless bill!

    Another complete misunderstanding of government powers, of course it had to be with bipartisan medications, do you not think the house and senate wouldn't filibuster over broad sweeping healthcare changes?

    What would you have preferred Biden do in Ukraine?

    And a strong economy directly tied to the Build Back Better Act gets a "no" from you. Good one.

    I could go through each of your shithouse Biden demands, but as soon as I saw a federal wage increase I knew you had no grasp on the role of federal government. Why should the minimum wage in Utah be the same as California?

    Jump

  • True, the CHIPS act, infrastructure bill, inflation reduction act, the largest investment into climate change in US history, allowing Medicare negotiation for the first time in history and persistent support of Ukraine against fledgling populace support, and an economy that's the envy of the world, all amount to nothing huh.

    God damn, what did you want?

  • Man, imagine if magats cared one inch when trump pardoned the straight up crooks Roger Stone et al. Imagine their reaction when he pardons everyone involved in the failed insurrection.

    Do you think magats find us more decent and respectable when democrats "tsk tsk"?

    Let Biden pardon his son, who gives a shit. It's not like Trump is gonna go "well maybe I won't be a dictator now" if Biden doesn't.

  • You need a VPN for everything when it comes to pirating.

  • Very few cartoons are broadcast live, it's a terrible strain on the animator's wrists.

  • My dad has this long running bit, that if I needed his help on something, he needed to go to the shop to get a "round tuit". I remember asking what store he had to go to, and how much it cost, and being annoyed at how he hadn't gotten a round tuit yet.

    He must have thought I was really committed to the bit.

  • Joe Biden issues 'full and unconditional' pardon for son

    Jump

  • One's a literal inssurectionist who pardoned all of his criminal cronies, who's only defense against his attempts to steal the election was "I need criminal immunity".

    Biden pardons his own son who absolutely wouldn't have been targeted were he not a Biden. Trump pardoned Charles Kushner, Jared's father.

    They are absolutely unequivocal.

  • Leak: Valve is making a Steam Controller 2 and a ‘Roy’ for its Deckard

  • "You were a racist site!"

    The absolute lack of subtlety on this meme, my god. The point blank spelling out of the authors opinion, the complete absence of a joke, and that exclamation mark. My word.

    Lemmy, how bad for an individual can consuming cannabis be?

    Jump

  • I thought the theory that it affected childhood brains was based on the damage it cause to frontal lobe development? And the notion that it was up to age 21 was based on that erroneous "The frontal cortex is developed at 25 years old" study, that actually just stopped looking at patients older than 25?

  • What is a genetic modification that would cause a massive chain reaction to possibly horrific effects?

    Jump

  • Opposite monkey paw situation, as cows are no longer farmed due to the poison risk, global emissions are massively reduced. And the huge amounts of land dedicated to feeding cows is returned to forestry, further reducing emissions.

    The poisonous cows solve climate change long before the vegans can.

  • Sweden abolishes tax on plastic bags despite warnings usage could rise

    Jump

  • Here in Melbourne Australia, plastic bags are illegal. Same with plastic cutlery, plastic cups, straws etc, and Ive not heard any significant whinging.

    Any country that hasn't done it yet needs an authoritarian left wing government to storm in and force their gormless populace to grow up and take responsibility.
