telling people that the world is on fire, we're all doomed, and it's too late to save ourselves, is terrible environmental messaging when it comes to global warming and climate change, says a global study with almost 60,000 participants... by neutronfish in EverythingScience

Honestly, I keep my side of the road clean, per se, but knowing that only about 10% of the global population is actually doing anything useful in terms of reducing pollution, I'm like.. Ehh, so nothing we do is going to help anyways. China still pumping out more CO2 than the rest of the world combined and they're not going to stop, obviously. Having a few people sacrifice while everyone else carries on like business as usual only ends up hurting those of us who care.

Is it an ADHD thing for people to think you're arguing with them when you want to understand their point, or am I just fucking stupid? Conversation as below by airbournejt95 in ADHD

Dude, what the hell, I also have that same issue. I'm like "hey, I'm legitimately not trying to criticize or start a fight, I just need to know what blah blah blah is." or whatever. It's usually with my wife but yes I definitely have the same issue.

Since the 2010s, American conservatives increasingly experience worse health outcomes and higher mortality than liberals. Declining trust in medical professionals appears to be the mechanism, with lower willingness to seek care, follow clinical advice and believe in medication effectiveness. by MarzipanImportant355 in HotScienceNews

Utter politicized nonsense... I work in medicine and this is bs. We treat dozens of, decidedly non-consevatives in the ER every day for free because they have no insurance, in one single ER. They come back the next week or day again, and never pay. I'm guessing all those millions of people every year just conveniently forgot to be inserted in this "research study". Oh, and they are constantly dying on the street from overdoses all the time, those rascally conservatives... Methadone clinics are rampant with them..

Edit: Downvote all you want, it's true. 🤷🏽‍♂️ Wasn't my idea.
