It’s that easy…

It’s worse. They’re not even apologizing for their actions but the “confusion and angst”.

It’s kind of like saying “we’re sorry you feel that way” and are somehow misunderstanding what they’re trying to do. They might as well have said, sorry dumbasses but it’s going to happen regardless. Perhaps in some watered down form, perhaps not this/next year, but it will happen.

Since most governments are filled with people who have way more money than they can spend in a lifetime probably never.

I will never understand why people who live in poverty or barely get by look at some rich CEO/billionaire whatever moneybags person go “yeah this person will probably understand my hardships and make it right, let’s make him governor or president”.

A lot of politicians are completely out of touch and as long as they’re doing well everyone must be doing well (or they simply don’t care).

I agree too. The fact is that our planet is simply fucked if we keep this ever urge for growth. It’s not sustainable and the cracks are clearly showing.

People don’t want to hear it but we should have a max 1 child limit per couple for at least some years or encourage people not to have children at all. Then when we’ve reached a healthy sustainable population have a 2 children max limit.

Less people = less consumption= less pollution.

As someone who lives in a country that actually has this system. No. It’s a shitty system. It results in old shitty cars that pollute like insanity. Some cars are more economical and safer than some badly built cars with less safety features and those safer cars are actually punished with this system.

You are literally better off buying an old banger that is falling apart and a road hazard than a new car because of our stupid tax system. And the people who drive SUVs here are usually rich and don’t care about higher road tax.

A platform is as good as it’s users. I left Reddit because it turned into a shithole. I’ll do the same with Lemmy if that happens.

I actually like the multiple smaller communities here, it’s part of the charm. If you think an instance is becoming too big just go to another one.

You can’t really do that on Reddit since everyone is on the same big instance.

Also leaving Reddit is the best thing for my mental health I’ve done in a while

Why does the packaging need plastic though? It’s absurd to me that coffe cups and stuff have to be degradable and made out of wood/carton (which is a good thing). And yet for a product where it shouldn’t matter “hey let’s use as much plastic as we can for this packaging”.

I’ve been keeping SD cards in a drawer unprotected for years and I have yet to see one break.

The record and movie industry must be paying out of their asses to have this shit taught in schools.

Let’s teach our kids the importance of making billionaires richer and not actual important stuff like checking facts or making a well informed decision when voting.

Absolute dystopian bullshit.

And this isn’t something he considered in advance?

Our government is busy to make people pay for owning solar panels. So yeah profit is always more important and literally no government or company gives a shit about the environment.

I’m pretty sure people will start removing their solar panels here soon since no one wants to pay more for doing good.

At this point I feel like Google wants to Intentionally kill off YouTube so they don’t have to bear the cost anymore. Just another one for the Google graveyard.
