Uh, it’s like comparing the best life you could have in Western Europe with the worst life you could have in American suburbs.
It’s no different from comparing an American surgeon earning 400k yearly in Manhattan to a person surviving in Belarus or Albania. Same bias but flipped in opposite direction.
Both comparisons would be unfair.
I am not saying life is worse in the EU than in the US, but there are many better ways to argue that more logically using data.
This is masks off moment for old.reddit. They have already done device fingerprinting, usage analytics, IP address retention, and cookies before, so not asking for email was rather symbolic, token privacy feature anyway. Removing it only confirms what’s already been there for years.
Use redlib, it’s nice. You can disable JavaScript and use it through Tor for complete security and anonymity, subscribe to subreddits, and it also has a lot of themes to customize your experience with.

He is presenting himself as way more significant than he is, either because of complete lack of self-awareness, or preemptive defensiveness against inevitable criticism he can’t handle, or overcompensating for inability to cope they are on the losing side.
Neither has any semblance of EQ, emotional maturity or humility. These aren’t the kinds of people who would rule in a fair, meritocratic system.

That’s unfortunate, yet not a separate issue from animal farming. They are interconnected, and we can’t fix one without fixing the other.
To get to the point where society pressures ruling class to ban airplanes despite best lobbying efforts, we need to shift the Overton window.
Right now, the Overton window is rather conservative, with most people considering any climate action that requires slightest drop in quality of life completely unacceptable.
Every successful radical climate action, including veganism, helps normalize idea of nature preservation over convenience in public consciousness, so movement can eventually take on more entrenched capital protected interests like jets.

Mfers the real deadline was 20 years ago, we already irreversibly fucked up wild bees and many forests, you don’t get to delay it anymore. In fact, be grateful deadline is not “tomorrow or go broke” (as it should be)
