I want the world to be a better place

Way, way, WAY too many people are dying in Gaza, but it's not everyone

I'm glad the democrats have found an acceptable pace of genocide for you.

we have to vote for Biden to save democracy

the point of voting is to choose the lesser evil, not have political parties win your vote by championing policies you support

Doesn't seem like much to be saved there

will magically make everyone agree with you suddenly

The true feelings of a liberal - it's better for people to agree with you than being right.

when everything fails and everyone is dying

Everyone is dying in Gaza, that's the whole discussion here. I know libs have memory issues (every next election is the most important ever) but that's pretty poor mate.

do nothing bullshit

advocating for voting

Like 80 percent of Americans don't even live in a competitive state, stop wasting your time cheerleading for a sham democracy

Like facial recognition it can work under pristine test conditions so you can get governments and corporates to spend millions on it

Not very useful in reality I would assume

The policy proposed to be removed is a cap on welfare for more than two children leaving a family with three children roughly £3,455 worse off, and the average family affected by the policy £4,300 worse off.

The budget impact is estimated to be about £3.4 billion a year to bring 500,000 children above the poverty line - or about 0.2 percent of government spending.

I don't agree with the risk that Earth will become Venus, but it is very possible we could hit the hottest temperatures since ~50 million years ago, which were too hot and humid for humans to live in.

Projecting current emissions into the future, Gingerich found that if emissions continue to rise, we could be facing another PETM-like event in fewer than five generations. The total carbon accumulated in the atmosphere could hit the lowest estimate of carbon accumulated during the PETM -- 3,000 gigatons -- in the year 2159. It would hit the maximum estimated emissions -- 7,126 gigatons -- in 2278, based on Gingerich's calculations. Humans have emitted roughly 1,500 gigatons of carbon as of 2016.

Both. Barbarism then socialism, either voluntarily or become socialism is the only system that can reliably sustain humanity.

there is a possibility of Earth even going the way of Venus

Not in the next few hundred million years - fortunately we can make the Earth inhospitable for human life well before the planet cannot sustain any life.
