So your philosophy has the effect of cutting communication between you and about 50% of your countrymen? Doesn’t that make you feel like you’re being used?

Yup, racism. Right out in the open. Upvoted, even.
I can’t believe you would rather let people die than let your house get spray painted. Monster.
but always break down as bad actors and grifters work their way in to cause trouble
This is the reason for having a slow, steady, methodical, skeptical approach to social change.
If your thing gets hijacked every time, eventually you gotta take responsibility for being so easily hijacked.
Yes I would say that about BLM. Justifying this stupid shit with that stupid shit doesn’t sway me. And no, now that I’m pissed off about this library vandalism, that does not in any way make me likely to support Gaza.
How do you not get that there is no mechanism of incentive here?
throwing shit on the Mona Lisa. Are you more aware?
No. I already knew about climate change.
Stonehenge. Are you more aware?
No. I already knew about climate change.
The audience is everyone who doesn’t give a shit about the protests but instead pearl clutches over the covers of books getting some paint on them
I am opposed to spray painting library books. But that does not mean that spray painting library books is a way to recruit my help.
In fact, there is no reason to think it would recruit my help.
I don’t give a shit if a hundred libraries burn to save the lives of even ten children.
There is no mechanism by which burning a library saves children’s lives
No, but they might be able to produce 300x the value.
Add in customer service, sales, and development, and it seems easier to focus on what other groups pay for those skills, which is not what I want.
Why not? Why not value the work based on what others are willing to pay for it?
Why don’t you ask a conservative or a republican?
The galaxy is a bowl of M&Ms. One of every hundred M&Ms is poisoned and will immediately kill you. It’s only a 1% chance you’ll die. Well maybe pike 5% if you eat a handful.
Most of the civilizations might even be moral enough not to destroy us, but all it takes is one.
and I think there are 5 or 6 heads of John the Baptist floating around right now
This man is hallucinating, so take whatever else he’s saying with a grain of salt.
I read a comment once about this: https://lemmy.world/comment/10801312
True. China is making rapid gains in territory and influence on Earth and Luna, and soon plans to expand its operations into the Belt.
Just led me ead my lead bro mmm
I don’t mind profit driven because I’m confident that free markets are good for everybody.
The space race is on. That’s why Starship has been launching so much. Someone at the FAA must have finally realized that if SpaceX doesn’t go ahead at full SpaceX speed, we’re gonna see China take over space.
They’ve got a space station and a rover on the moon. China will easily overtake us in space, has already in a few places.
Fossil fuels aren’t just a culture war. Energy is really important for people, including poor people.
Also the lane must be clear before you switch lanes. It is not necessary for the lane to be clear before you signal.
Your comment is also written from the frame that signaling equals changing lanes.
I turn on my turn signal to request a space to move into the packed lane. I don’t go into the lane until someone has seen the signal and is holding a space for me.
The turn signal is a communication device. That communication would be nearly useless if it were only used when nobody was in the lane you were going to. It’s the people in the lane you’re targeting who are the primary recipients of that message.
Guns? Bombs? Surely you can kill a civilization. Not sure why magic would be required.
