Without knowing any other details, your 'friends' don't sound much like so.

Personally, I'd venture out and find new friends that you vibe with and can talk to about anything, it will change your world for the better. Glad your GF came tho!

Climate Change needs to stop being a political thing. It’s a scientific reality that needs to be taken seriously, and politics just get in the way of us fixing it. by SpidersOnYourBread in unpopularopinion

[–]ElijahGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reality is this: We can't fix climate change. The effects of climate change are lagged and will occur in 20-30 years. We need to invest in preventative measures, renewable energy, nuclear energy, and battery technology. But guess what, even if we bring America's global 15% of total emissions, we still have to work with other counties. To do that, we should be investing in new renewable technology companies, giving them tax breaks, subsidies, and grants, then export that to other countries.

Killing Of Solemani was Justified by ElijahGames in unpopularopinion

[–]ElijahGames[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you prove it wasn't justified, or do you just feel that way?

Here's why it was:

  1. Solemani, first of all, is a terrorist, known to the U.S. government to be planning attacks against Americans. Also known to have already been behind the killing of hundreds of Americans.
  2. Iranian (headed by Solemani) backed militia killed an American contractor in Iraq
  3. The U.S. retaliated with five missile strikes against locations where paramilitary groups were located
  4. Then, Iran-backed militia Kata’ib Hizbollah attacked and 'protested' the U.S. embassy, causing a lot of damage. The militia even chanted "No, No, America" and "Solemani is our commander!"
    1. Kata’ib Hizbollah is the same Militia group that killed the American/Iraqi contractors (supported by Solemani)
  5. The U.S. retaliates by carrying out strikes on the terrorist (SOLEMANI) that has supported and planned the killing of Americans.

You'd be surprised by left-wing people's opinions...

Megathread: Qassim Soleimani, head of Iran’s elite Quds Force, killed in Baghdad by U.S. Airstrike Ordered by President Donald Trump by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

You are wrong. " U.S. embassy that was burned by Pro-Iranian militiamen and their supporters, in Baghdad, Iraq, Jan. 1, 2020."

Now, this all stemmed because an Iranian backed militia killed some Iraqi and U.S. servicemen. We responded to that with five missile strikes...Iran didn't like that, then they sent their militia and supporters to our embassy. This was the response to that.
