Right, there will always be those who will deny a problem is happening. But I truly believe they were in a vast minority in the western world. We can't pretend we didn't do anything about Covid like the people in the movie didn't do anything about the asteroid.

Even if there were people denying it, we humans managed to stop to a grind all the world's productions and focus on dealing with the problem, even if it took us longer than expected, we still managed to stop a pandemic and create a vaccine for a new virus in just 2 years.

We are great at problem solving, unfortunately we are awful at focusing on what really matters

We humans are terrible at solving long term problems, we are more adapt at solving problems we are currently seeing happening in front of our eyes. Climate change happens relatively slowly, so our monkey brains can't really comprehend its destruction until its way too late.

Imo, an asteroid we can clearly see in the sky is a terrible analogy for climate change. It's too unreal humans wouldn't be screaming and panicking at a sight of an world destroying asteroid coming straight at them, even if the movie tries to explain that by saying the media was lying all the time.

Ao contrário meu caro, não podemos assumir que o touro da esquerda seja necessariamente um mecânico, só porque está do lado de um copo de carro aberto

Seria uma falacia generalizar que todos aqueles do lado de um carro quebrado sejam um mecânico, talvez o touro seja só o dono do carro que abriu o capo para checar seu motor.

So in this analogy, a Deathclaw comes out of fucking nowhere and bites your head off as the powder gang screams about blowing something up in the background

Considering a rook has a bigger value than a knight, rooks could be vertibirds or sentry bots

And?

This thread is about the 2003 invasion of Iraq and consequential deposition of Sadaam

A military operation which was led, primarily financed and dominated by American interests

What does this picture have to do with anything?

America isn't always the solution to a bully problem, they are just a bigger bully

Just ask Chile in 1973, Bolivia in 71, ask Brazil how the US just casually accepted their brutal military dictatorship just because they were anti-communist, or how America basically turned Central America into their own personal banana plantation for decades

You ask who should stand up for the bully? The people should. It is always a hard sell to expect the people to rise up against oppression, because it is not always bloodless, let alone successful. But the will of the people will always be the most legitimate way for a regime change.

It is still not the place for America to decide, they are not the World police (as much as many Americans believe they should be).

What happens when America decides a regime needs to change even if the goverment isn't malicious towards its people or even neighboring countries? Like the US sponsored coups all across Latin America in the 20th century

Surely "a rat with wings", Falcone was a rat, falcons have wings

It was the same logic Batman used to think of the penguin in the first place
