And oranges are orange
It doesn’t matter what the totals are when people are talking about one or the other for a single use.
Less people commute to work on private jets than buses, are you gonna say jets are fine and buses are the issue?
Because that’s where your logic ends up
This is like saying a giant truck is the same as a civic for a 2 hr commute …
AI people always want to ignore the environmental damage as well…
Like all that electricity and water are just super abundant things humans have plenty of.
Everytime some idiot asks AI instead of googling it themselves the planet gets a little more fucked
which are literally synonyms in the context.
From my first reply:
Indigenous is more correct because that involves the land changing someone, not just something coming from there.
You might not be aware of every pedantic difference, I didn’t assume anyone would, that’s why I explicitly stated it
Feel free to Google and check my work, but this isn’t an argument someone can win, words have meaning.
They don’t call themselves that, they call themselves by their individual tribe names…
They’re not one bulk people.
You know the only continent humans are native to is Africa, right?
Indigenous is more correct because that involves the land changing someone, not just something coming from there.
I was referencing the first sentence.
I think you’re talking about the second
“at average” is waaaaay to vauge and can mean so many different things…
Something that large I’m assuming you’re using something like comparing 50 year old men to 50 year old women. Where some women that have spent a decade or two out of the workforce raising children. Or even something that ignores industry/position.
If corporations could pay 15% less to a woman than a man with the same experience and qualifications…
They’d only hire women.
People think 2,000 years is a long time, but evolutionary that was like, last Tuesday.
We’re not built for modern society.
Humans didn’t evolve for everyone to have the sleep schedule, because that would have been an incredibly dangerous arrangement for the vast majority of our existence.
We stay up late when young, “normal” in middle aged, and asleep at 4pm but awake when the teens are just going to bed when elderly
Obviously there’s variation, but almost no one keeps the same schedule their whole lives.
Just spreading the gospel
Yeah, he’s kind of an American icon, but I don’t think he’s big worldwide
Here’s a quick interview and not just a joke:
You may have heard of his show:
Baby Billy’s Bible Bonkers:
People constantly told OP that, but they just won’t stop making posts about it
They could just make media that people actually enjoy with that advertising budget…
Like, you get that’s an option, right? I don’t think anyone wants their creative visions to be used to sell beer to college kids with burping frogs.
We don’t all have to like the same 10 movies a year the big studios decide we have to like either.
Those resources could be spread around to more people making a much higher quantity of media that doesn’t have to try to appeal to everyone.
Prioritizing profits over everything doesn’t lead to a better life except for a very very small percentage of us, so why do we all go along with it?
We can literally just stop putting profits over everything and 99.99% of our lives would improve immediately
Advertising doesn’t have to exist.
Like, we could just pass laws restricting or outright banning certain kinds.
I think people just forget that we can tell corporations they can’t do whatever the fuck they want.
Literally nothing is stopping you from buying color towels and using your own system…
Money is most important when voters dislike both candidates.
It doesn’t not take a billion dollars to run a presidential campaign, I’d argue 90% of that is a complete waste.
It’s very cheap to run a winning campaign for a charismatic candidate with popular policy positions.
It is very very expensive to get Dem voters to vote for some one significantly more conservative than they are.
This ain’t new and it ain’t unique to America:
The President in particular is very much a figurehead — he wields no real power whatsoever. He is apparently chosen by the government, but the qualities he is required to display are not those of leadership but those of finely judged outrage. For this reason the President is always a controversial choice, always an infuriating but fascinating character. His job is not to wield power but to draw attention away from it. On those criteria Zaphod Beeblebrox is one of the most successful Presidents the Galaxy has ever had — he has already spent two of his ten presidential years in prison for fraud.
The difference is some of us have been talking about it for decades…
Some just figured it out in the last year, but are often beligerently resist to the people who saw it way before them, and completely refuse to believe there may be other things they haven’t noticed yet.
If people think any of what is happening right now is new or unique, they need to spend a lot more time reading (actual books too) and less time typing.
Varies wildly.
Some people are in unions, others “at will” employment.
This is something to ask coworkers and hopefully a union rep.
