I wonder how much micro plastics blue whales get. Those are still around, right? They didn't go out shortly after Bowie and I missed it?

Cloks posted:generations are a capitalist construct designed to encourage people to seek enemies who aren't the upper classes No they are just arbitrary buckets humans thought up like literally every categorization. This is kinda reflective of that GMO argument. Capitalism inherently seeks to subvert everything man creates to its own ends, but that doesn't make it the creator.

My only regret is that I'll probably die before witnessing the full extent of how bad, dumb, and dystopian things get.

I remember a time when it was valued in that subforum to actually dissect why certain things were actually good or bad instead of banning all mention.

Rime posted:It's extremely good poo poo, to the point where it's actually mind boggling that it was published at all. "What if we broke stuff, maybe we should break this stuff" isn't actually a violent message and Capitalists don't have full control of info yet. I love it. Wanna give it to a bunch of children for Christmas to troll their parents.

LionArcher posted:I thought about writing a response because basically the threads justification for never saying anything about the concept of something illegal is starting to feel like thought policing, and then realized Id just get probed too. It's reminding me of a post Commiegir once made about the democractics. It started from 'well republicans are bad' and in a series of completely logical arguments ended with something very much like "I guess to do the most good we have to ban all criticism of democrats". It never was made a direct rule, but the thought process that ends with "we can't talk about how bad things will get and the insufficiency of any action in the allowed list because then someone might think about crimes" seems to be where a lot of posters in the thread want things to go.

Cold on a Cob posted:i don't judge people for having kids because i pretty much don't give a gently caress about any personal choices now and our population boom is an unsurprising result of us getting all hosed up on fossil fuels. the drive to reproduce is strong, unless you're like me and just lack that gene or something. i do get mad when people judge me for not having kids though, i've had loving strangers tell me "you'll regret it" when they found out. Same, same, same. I'm ready to just jump on board with a Keurig or other convenient poo poo I was avoiding out of not wanting to waste because why would I deprive myself at this point.

You are not responsible for any part of your carbon footprint including the part that is your children's footprint because you are not responsible for the structure of society today. It's a bad argument against having children because it buys into their framing. The unimaginable suffering on the other hand...

If they're going to permaban him for lifetime achievement racism they need to just do it instead of letting random nerds buy back his account (I think Jeff said someone gifted him his last re-up) and then banning him again for innocuous posts.

It's a complicated interaction because none of this happens all at once. There will be some sort of a city that thinks it's keeping civilization still going but things will break and not be replaceable and in time it too shall fall into ruin. It's not really very material whether this is before or after the last pollinator.

I've been thinking some of this through myself and your writing has helped a ton. emTme3 posted:each group split would have a new chance to use energy differently - but if they did, their neighbors would overshoot and eat them anyways. if you can't see this pattern happening over and over again in the 20c, then turn your monitor on. This part is very much where I have been focusing my attention. It's a game with hidden conditions, including a bunch of "no one wins" and we can't reveal them without playing and then losing.
