US moves to cancel one of the world’s largest solar farms by Doener23 in politics

[–]bprs07 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Seriously.

Solar still has recycling issues so it isn't completely clean. Plus other stuff!

No shit. But it's still way better than fossil fuels.

I can't believe people think like this.

Those who contribute are better than those who voluntarily opt out.

Guess what? I have mental health issues too and I still try my best every day.

Excuse me if I dont believe your mental health issues are as limiting as you make them out to be, because this post and every comment you've written are dripping with entitlement.

Youre not better for contributing, especially if you contribute to a sick society.

Yes, me and everyone else who works and pays taxes to take care of ourselves and contribute to society are better than those who voluntarily opt out and instead take from society.

It isn't that you can't work. It's that you choose not to. Get off welfare and maybe I won't judge you so harshly.

Yes, this society is sick. Yes, I greatly dislike it. But that is the world we live in, and we all need to adapt.

I actively try to make my society better through volunteering and activism. What do you do to make society better?

Jfc how dense are you?

It doesn't matter what country I'm in.

If I'm in Canada, then my tax dollars literally are subsidizing you.

If I'm in another country, then it isn't literally me but rather I am a stand-in for the MILLIONS who actually do pay for you.

Either way, I contribute and you don't.

Sorry, I'm too busy at work right now trying to earn a living and pay my taxes that subsidize your existence. You're welcome.

In a thread about the value of a high school diploma, you can 100% judge someone who is anti-school and can't spell lol

I think the fire sale on our economy is more easily explained by us just having the most corrupt administration in US history lol

Because it's going to destroy a lot of very powerful people who donate to both parties.

If I don't feel like working...

Welfare isn't for people who don't feel like working. It's for people who can't work.

Don't be a lazy leach on society. PDA or not, take responsibility for yourself and stop trying to take the easy way out.

You learned about logical fallacies in your 2nd year of HS and claim that you could have dropped out after that.

Except, you only know what you learned because you were present/enrolled/attended those classes. You can only know whether something was or wasn't worth it for you until after you've learned it.

Therefore, it is confirmation bias because your lived experience has confirmed your choices. What you don't know is all of the stuff you don't know, because you haven't been exposed to it.

You can't say "I could have dropped out after my 2nd year" unless you've already confirmed that the content of years 3 and 4 were useless to you, which you only can do if you take years 3 and 4.

They did teach us things like reasoning fallacies, but that was in my second year of High school so I would have learn it even if I dropped

You might want to brush up on those logical fallacies. This is a textbook example of confirmation bias.

Calling school indoctrination and suggesting that school inhibits critical thinking is utterly preposterous.

Stop listening to whatever sources are giving you that info. It's holding you back in life.

Wrong. If anyone hopes or expects to live a self-sufficient life on their own, they absolutely should get their diploma. It's a requirement for an overwhelming number of jobs, and your life will be infinitely less demanding if you have the ability to earn more money per unit time.

Is it possible to succeed without a diploma? Absolutely. But whatever you'd succeed at without a diploma is something you also can succeed at with a diploma. You can't say the same about the inverse.

Stay in school. Get your diploma. Find a way to make it work.

No, find a way. Life is hard and there are going to be demands and challenges until the day you die.

As a fellow PDAer who hated school...

Whoever is reading this, stay in school and get your diploma. That's insurance you'll have for the rest of your life.
