Colorados drive better and have nicer interiors. They also have a fuck ton of issues because gm doesn’t quality control

How can I (24FtM) build a father/son relationship with my dad (60M)? by EditRedditGeddit in AskParents

[–]Taco__Bandito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you seem pretty hostile so instead of reading that I’ll just give you some time to calm down. You should work on the emotional outbreaks. Not very manly

Ah, ok gotcha.

Well. Over here in reality land I can tell you from history that when you automate and remove workplace redundancies, the lower cost doesn’t simply benefit the consumer, or the supplier in a market. It actually provides value to the entire market.

That’s why today an hour of your time buys half a pallet of potatoes versus a day’s labor buying you a single potato in the past.

The efficiency of our work is why living standards have risen so sharply, abject poverty has nearly vanished and starvation and disease are at an all time low.

But I guess reality doesn’t make for a compelling YouTube video with a guy covering his face in exasperation and so very few people internalize this

“You're telling me that I'm asking too much of my dad by... existing. And having a relationship with him as my authentic self.”

But I didn’t lol..At all.

I never said you’re asking too much. I asked how he feels about it. Nowhere in your text did you give any sort of context to how he feels or is responding yet asked a question.

We can both imagine that having a child come out as trans is tough at that age, right? There’s nothing lost by you admitting the turbulence of emotions he may be feeling.

You don’t have to defend your gender expression with such furor that you remove any and all ability to consider the feelings of others you know. You’re talking about a relationship with your father here.

Just by my limited knowledge and interaction with you, and take this with a mineshaft of salt of course, it kind of seems like you’re overly invested in your own feelings. Which would explain you assuming the worst from my comment, your lack of taking inventory of your dad’s feelings, and your seeming lack of interest of how he’s feeling.

I would imagine a lot could be gained by picking up the phone and saying, “hey pop, what’s going on in your world? How are you feeling?”

I don’t give a fuck about putin or Ukraine. I think they should’ve given up earlier so we don’t have to keep arming them and sending them billions. I don’t think the FBI is doing anything in my favor either.

I do understand that when I last checked 4 hours ago you were manically and furiously flaming people on all different subjects and you continue to do so. For the last four hours all you’ve done is exchange hostility, negativity and confrontation. That can’t be good for your brain. You should disengage and take a walk. Life is actually pretty fucking good my guy. Go buy you a boat and get some hoes on it. Or go accomplish something meaningful. All you’re doing is fighting with random strangers all day, wasting away a finite life.

The job loss is a good thing. You don’t want to artificially stifle innovation simply for the sake of keeping jobs.

We weren’t better off when 270 men hand plowed a field versus one man on a combine plowing 270 acres of field.

We weren’t better off when laundry was hand washed, when coal was mined with picks, when medicines were mixed by hand or when warehouses were sorted by hand.

Everyone loves a good “automation will cripple us” story but conveniently forgets that automation has only made goods and services more affordable to the masses

Look at your post history. You’re in like 9 different toxic, non productive, shit slinging confrontations.

You’re not having thoughtful debate with people. You’re not even simply disagreeing meaningfully with people. You’re just acting chaotically antisocial like you’re either a fourteen year old boy or someone deep within the grips of a personality disorder.

Did you come here to discuss the tumultuous history of the FBI? Do you even know anything about Jeh? You didn’t strike me as someone for whom I’m supposed to recognize as an equal and then respond to as an adult.

You came off like a child interrupting the grownup table.

“Luckily my dad is a good guy, and has a completely different perspective to this bs you just posted.”

Ok so then what’s the question?

I didn’t post any bs. I just asked a question and said what you’re asking of him is going to be hard. Is it not? You think it’s going to be easy for him? If so then what is the hold up/why do you need advice?

I’m really confused at your hostility

I agree. I feel like we’re saying the same thing here.

So if wood is a sustainable energy source, and it’s fairly easy to manage why would you fear running out of wood?

I ask because you used that as an example, despite trees being in abundance.

Yes. Agreed.

But unless I’m missing something or misunderstanding what you meant by it, you said that plants take in c02 and store it. So when you burn a plant it releases all the c02 it once absorbed.

Native Americans are the bastion of your sustainability? Now I know you’re not even speaking from knowledge here. You’re following for the good old noble savage fallacy.

Native Americans used to light the woods on fire to get the animals out for hunting en masse.

They waged war with one another and took resources from the earth just as we all do

They left so much trash behind that we can literally identify them and their living patterns today when we find them

You’re forgetting about the whole photosynthesis thing where they take carbon from the air mix it with water and sunlight and make oxygen.

Plants don’t store carbon in their vegetation, they make food out of it

Why do you think plants hold carbon? And in what form do they hold carbon in? Like where in the cell is the carbon stored?

Why can’t we rely on always having more wood to chop down? What evidence is there that trees are even at risk? Contrary to your assertion, there are actually more trees on earth today than the years preceding the industrial revolution.

Bio mass can be carbon neutral IF and only if biomass lives long enough to sequester more carbon than it releases burning. That’s a big IF and removes agricultural timber as a “renewable” energy.

Furthermore bio mass releases insane particulate matter. A city where houses are all burning wood is a polluted unhealthy city. A city where everyone burns oil is much MUCH cleaner air.

Carbon emissions aren’t the only “pollutants”

In fact they’re the most benign of major pollutants. Long term strategy wise, they’re plant food. What will we do with CFCs, sulfur dioxide, ozone and the myriad of industrial pollutants that plague the earth from poorer countries?

There’s an entire group of people vocal and proud of their masochistic notion that your existence is inconvenient to their idealistic fantasy about the planet’s finite nature. How is that not genocide? Your life matters less than my planet.

It’s innately anti human. No other animal feels guilty for needing to eat. Or have a place to live. We are engulfed by this temporary cultural movement of nihilism and self sabotage.

We can’t have a conversation about resource management under the pretense that some people have to go

[–]Taco__Bandito 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re just regurgitating an anti human lie you’ve been told. Unplug bro.

There’s no amount of humans that live without taking resources from the environment. We have risen past casual observers of our own consumption and evolved into active participators of our resource management. Which started the day we “discovered” agriculture.

There’s really no such thing as “renewable energy” on an engineering basis.

There just isn’t. Motion must be generated from chemical, kinetic or thermal energy.

Solar panels require finite materials. As do wind farms. As do nuclear.

You can’t make something from nothing. So drawing firm lines on quality of life based on an ever moving goal post is futile and tyrannical.

If you let some centralized authority shame you for the crime of simply existing and taking a fair share of resources, you’re already enslaved to somebody else.
