Funny because the guardian insisted for years that carbon capture is our only hope, meanwhile China was the only country cutting emissions despite manufacturing everything anyone on earth demanded

That’s what the article is about. It also goes into biomass energy land use and the unknown effectiveness of grinding up rocks + laying them on farmland

Great thing to say for redditors who have zero original thoughts and cannot contribute to any topic in depth

I think their point is that this stupid internet meme based off of a random tech writer - akin to Cory Doctorow’s “enshittification” - is not even backed up by its own citation

Wikipedia is such a shithole…

I’ll get you a book or video next IOU but here’s a CPI(M) outlet I neglect to check due to its lack of RSS feed https://peoplesdemocracy.in/

No Canadian should be delusional enough to think their country’s forestry is even cutting carbon emissions. There’s a problem with first world energy use here

You are writing fanfiction based off of propaganda NATO is recycling from the Cold War. Literal Asiatic hordes.

Are you ready to make this interesting? Because I know who I am betting on

Oh so we’re admitting the US and its allies are directly at war with Russia now, are we? Tut tut you shouldn’t talk down on plucky little Ukraine fending for itself like that.

Anyways, let’s all calm down and focus on making the entirety of the Baltics uninhabitable with antipersonnel mines 🥰

“What if I framed geopolitics as a schoolyard quarrel”

Very original dude. Ever heard of Operation Cyclone?

This kind of offbeat FOSS social media stuff can’t replace the major social media monopolies anyways, it serves a different purpose. People just need a backup and evasion from the US finance-tech-military cartel. If you try and put the screws on people who came to you looking for a better option, they’ll just flee. Nothing that can be done about the propaganda and advertising though & I reckon it is a bigger issue than the petty harassment and powermodding, which is mostly just deranged roleplaying

USA is the only country that can enact unilateral sanctions on others. It controls the world’s financial system since it absorbed the colonial empires as a result of WWII (I am heavily bowlderizing and abridging this watch the dang videos they’re long sorry)

I think that if the lemmy.world people want to wall themselves off and take over their digital fiefdom it will make people take the artificial public opinion less seriously, the way most older lemmy users outgrew reddit. It seems like something they do to reassure themselves. Then again, this network & Mastodon etc are well-known to intelligence contractors. If they had no presence posting + voting here they wouldn’t be doing their jobs.

It’s crazy how much people will just speculate about information that is practically in front of their face. I was entertaining it too! They’re too concerned with proving they had the right intuition and being egoistic to teach each other anything

I’m not Muslim either, but I am sincere when I return your salaam :)

Was raised secular protestant, I didn’t even get interested in the history of religion until the past couple years led me to delve into monetary history. Now I feel like I’ve been missing out on all the driving forces of ancient history and getting treated to glorified trivia

You’re already welcome to repost anything of mine and I’m interested to learn about that community as well, so thanks for mentioning it

Bunch of barf on the screen is what this is. Everyone can take a look at the deepening inequality and privatization of the healthcare system in the Disunited Kkkingdom and see they’re headed the way of Kkklanada.
