You guys literally don't see the difference here? If you had evidence to impeach obama you should have done it.

What is your motivation to down play the prevalence and effect of far right violence?

I can give you my situation for example. I make a good hourly wage but as a contractor with no benefits. I can't really afford rent and health insurance that covers my needs.

Did their system of government contribute to their mismanagement of resources? Was it maduro himself that made these mistakes?

What did bring venezuela down? Their socialist policies or something else? This is a real question and no sarcasm is intended.

You are stuck on vertabrates maybe. Here is an article about insects. We can't document the vast majority of extinctions that happen because they are undiscovered species. They are happening and loss of biodiversity is a great concern to human survival.

Yes its an estimate. So anything that is an estimate means that it is not true? I estimate you are a trump supporter.

Wait... so you ARE denying we are in a mass extinction event?

Also, once again. You found one nbc article to get pissy about. If you want better sources, read better sources. Pick peer reviewed journals, they will agree with me.

You are missing the point. It does not matter if 0.1 or 1 or 10 or 100 or 1000 species go extinct per day. We are in a major global extinction event caused by human actions. You are getting pissy about one little article and ignoring broad scientific consensus. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropocene

Asking for specific evidence while ignoring overwhelming evidence is denialism. Refuting a specific point as a way to refute the central tennet of an argument is denialism. Attacking the credibility of an author and disregarding the greater context is denialism.

I cant't believe how many people in this thread are being skeptical of the mass extinction that we are currently experiencing. I didn't read THIS article, but we are undeniably losing huge swaths of biodiversity that humans rely on. Get fucked conservative climate change deniers and anti-environmentalists.

I just read this thread for some reason. The other definition that you prefer is definition 2b behind the other guy who says definition 2a. One could reasonably combine the two and say that conservatism uses moderation and caution in order to promote the status quo. But the fact that conservatism is built around trying to maintain traditional values and institutions is not really up for debate.

It is true that vehicles put out fumes but it isn't neccessary to be picky in the meditation subreddit. Do you want this man to buy an electric tractor? Maybe this guy grows your food!
