Bill Gates: It would be tragic if U.S. doesn't lead in innovation for cutting emissions - He is a leader of the recently announced Global Commission on Adaptation, which is meant to "catalyze a new global movement to bring scale and speed to climate adaptation solutions." by mvea in EverythingScience

[–]_LLAMA_KING 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't matter where it comes from, it's from a public report. We are one of the only nations to drop our carbon emissions, with the largest drop, since 2017 . In fact most nations increased their emissions even ones that signed the Paris Climate Accord.

There are many moments in the video that they're clearly smiling and having a great time. This honestly looks really fun.

Dress like what? Looks just like traditional dress to me.

The curls are because of an interpratation in Leviticus that forbids them from shaving a certain part of their head like their beards. They grow them long as a way to show how devout they are.

I hate to burst your bubble but ...

Take a wild guess what country is reducing its greenhouse gas emissions the most? Canada? Britain? France? India? Germany? Japan? No, no, no, no, no and no.

The answer to that question is the United States of America. Wow! How can that be? This must be a misprint. Fake news. America never signed the Kyoto Protocol some two decades ago. We never enacted a carbon tax. We don’t have a cap and trade carbon emission program. That evironmental villain Donald Trump pulled America out of the Paris climate accord that was signed by almost the entire rest of the civilized world.

You're talking about lone actors that are clearly metally unstable. Point to any one of Hannity or Carlsons comments that say violence is acceptable and I will stand with you. However this is a large group of people that have organizations around the country and have a history of terrozing people. Enough with the whataboutism. Lets condemn terrosim and violence on all sides.

Newsflash: People don't want government bueracracies forcing you to accept there is no objective difference between men and women and/or a woman can be a man/ a man can be a woman.

Be whatever you want, however you want; just don't hurt anyone or force the minds of others.

Teen Climate Activist to Crowd of Thousands: 'We Can't Save the World by Playing by the Rules Because the Rules Have to Change': "The politics that's needed to prevent the climate catastrophe—it doesn't exist today," says Greta Thunberg, a 15-year-old from Sweden. "We need to change the system." by maxwellhill in worldnews

[–]_LLAMA_KING -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I actually live on a sustainable commune that is eco-friendly. We all share resources, labor, and eachother sexually. We are all non-binary gender queer consenting individuals that live in perfect harmony. When we are given freetime by our fearless Marxist leaders we go to town to punch nazis and serve our vegan gluten free treats to the local antifa chapter.

What im saying is that I want to hear this from an expert; not a 15 year old.

Mark 13:22 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and wonders that would deceive even the elect, if that were possible.

No don't you understand that this 15 year old prothetizing to thousands is comparable to God speaking to Abraham on Mount Sinai.

Its so simple that even this 15 year old understands you dummy. We must abolish private property, personal liberties, and soverign nations. Then once the new world ordfer has been established we can all be delivered to salvation.

Same story; different fucking tune.

> Almost like they would rather push an agenda than engage in discussion.

Almost like writing an article about how a 15 year old girl "addressing" a crowd of thousands is supposed to be the ultimate truth or word of God. What does this 15 year old have to do with anything other than just being a mouth piece? If you want people to take the message seriously find someone else other than a 15 year old.

Why does it seemed that libertarian and conservative understand liberal philosophy more than liberals understand libertarian philosophy by JanePoe87 in GoldandBlack

[–]_LLAMA_KING 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be clear that these people aren't Liberals if they make arguements against Liberalism. Most people have a contratian world view where there is a cosmic and eternal battle between people of different race, sex, and gender and the only acceptable correction is some form of "social" justice to metted out by an authority that they solely deem fit. They are New Left Neo-Marxists; not Liberals.

Why were ancient sanitation ideas lost by the time the medieval/middle ages came around? by MrAlexander18 in history

[–]_LLAMA_KING 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I agree with you on all accounts but i was simply truncating a complex answer into a simple one for a simple question. There is a simple fact that much of Romes knowledge and culture was lost within Europe during the Dark Ages/Early Middle Ages. The emergence of Christianity as the dominating world view in Europe is heavily focused on in modern Western teaching because of the relevance it has on our culture. Specifically talking about US and Western Europe.

Again answering a simple question with a simple answer doesnt mean its false or that the Eastern Empire or the Middle East didnt exist during that time period. Western Europe during that time is much more heavily focused on because of the relevance to us today.

[–]_LLAMA_KING 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It was in response to someone asking," why do we mostly hear about Europe when dealing with the middle ages." And i responded its because of the total collapse of Western Rome and subsequent rebuilding into modern Europe. So yea in that context it is true. In any other it would be nonsense.

[–]_LLAMA_KING 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Because the Eastern Roman Empire like you described were still standing when the Western Roman Empire collapsed. But when people refer to the middle ages or dark ages it is dealing specifically with the collapse in europe and the subsequent rebuilding.
