Water quality, from the James River to the Hudson to the Cheasapeake Bay has made large strides in the last 30 years. The mid to upper east coast has made huge strides to clean up their waterways, and you really can't compare how they were in the 90s to how they are now.

All the millennial parents I know are freaking out about Charter Schools being a drain on our public school system. Admittedly a pool of two is too small for charting any broad trends.

The amount we on the left bend over backwards to say "well I would never cheer for Disney/please don't misunderstand I hate Disney/gently caress Disney" is quite frankly tiring. They aren't doing anything wrong here, I feel no compunction to make me throttle my support for them as they smother President DeSantis in his crib.

Mellow Seas posted:No need for the “a bunch of nameless people were wrong with a position I’m just making up that they had ”. Boycotts ended apartheid; nobody believed they can never seriously believes they can never work. The boycott didn't work, the company immediately fired the people involved and threw transgender people under the bus because they agreed with the protesters. There were plenty of libs ready to buy up all the crappy beer they could in support but AB pissed off both sides, one by accident and the other on purpose.

GlyphGryph posted:This is pretty much perfectly in line with PETA's openly stated ideology as I'm familiar with it, so I've never really understood this criticism. They aren't and never have been opposed to the death of animals, but rather to their exploitation for human purposes. "PETA kills their animals instead of returning them to captivity and the possibility of what they see as continued ongoing harm" is what I would expect. This is from a few pages ago, but I do not understand what you are trying to say. I lived in Norfolk Va for a time, and PETA ran animal shelters that people reasonably believed they should take kittens to so they could find forever homes and they were just murdered. I have no idea why you think people making sure people know that PETA kills animals is actually a self own on those pointing it out.

As another poster said, even if it was her original wish when she was 100% competent, it is now elder abuse.

FLIPADELPHIA posted:No one arguing about trans people in sports can be persuaded by a sports / science argument. This is a deeply moral issue and there's no zinger fact you can drop that will change their moral compass. I'd argue that even having the debate is harmful to discourse because few if any people on the fascist side here are discussing it in good faith. Very true, especially since the female swimmer that they used to kick all this off is not the ultimate athlete they try to paint her as. This was never about facts or harms.
