We caused, indirectly or even directly, many of the causes that people are trying flee from in their home countries in Latin america.

The vast majority of them are trying to flee gang violence.

It really does read like an ad, which is amusingly ironic since linux mint is free.

I think it depends, farsighted? Probably not.

Nearsighted looking at things hopelessly out of focus and not trying to look, perhaps.

I'm very nearsighted amd taking my glasses seems to make them relax, since nothing will be close enough to make them focus.

Somebody that's farsighted might strain their eyes to focus without their glasses.

I'm not ignorant of rural life, I've lived in rural areas, suburbs, and visiting cities a lot.

There are a lot of reasons why american cities suck, high crime, decrepit buildings, not unique to cities either.

Enjoy your life, and be safe. Try not to put others in danger.

I don't know why I care so much, but someone in my area died in a car accident a few months ago. I didn't know her, but i was very close at the time it happened.

A drunk driver hit them and everyone blames them alone, and yeah its their fault. But the road leading up to it is too easy to go fast leading into a shopping center. I don't want to live a culture that just accepts car deaths. I want the county and government to fix unsafe roads. And I'd like something to be done to stop the arms race between cars on the road, in the end your not that much safer, while people outside the car die in greater numbers.

I'm sorry that the area you live in has decided that transportation can carry a serious risk of death. Roads can be desinged in a safer manner, even when people are drunk.

Transit options are workable even in rural areas when designed correctly.

Well I bike to work, so take that how you will.

Personally I'd rather advacote for safer roads for everyone, and transit options that doesn't turn into an arms race, like buses, trains and biking where possible.

Also get hit by a semi, tell me how you win that arms race.

I hate it cause its lethal, wasteful, and stupid.

A good bet is alternative media, things like kurzgesagt, verisitium or other science outreach programs.

The other thing is education, engage with his education, and teach him yourself to think critically.

And I hate to say it to say it, but religion conditions kids to brainwashing. Even if not extremists.

Feel comfortable pointing out flaws in Christianity and question them with him.

And lastly, try not to be argumentitive. You need to carefully tease him out of these beliefs, not destroy them.

That would feel like you are attacking him and will probably be counterproductive.

I'd rather they build sustainable transit systems, but I'd take cheap evs over nothing.
