Ah yes, I too remember when the BBC openly advocated rape and lynching.

Lol, what do you disagree about? Is a 1.5°C rise apocalyptic?

I think a mix of religion and being brought up with old-school morality. I’m a conservative who has no problems with homosexuals, in fact HIV/AIDS is one of the causes I really get behind because the history of it fascinates me (currently reading And The Band Played On, it’s great).

Whenever I see homophobia or erroneous beliefs about them I try and correct them when I can.

Are these Tory terrorists in the room with us now?

Lmao, yeh it sounds exactly like what I thought it would be. Attracts a certain type of person and politics.

I would say just generalizing capitalism as ‘bad’ is also not in good faith. It is not without issues, and letting it be completely unrestrained would probably be disastrous. But no other economic system has lifted more people out of abject poverty or driven technological innovation as hard. There are benefits.

Bruh, I don’t believe in late stage capitalism either but we are definitely living in capitalist economies in most of the world.

Capitalism isn’t just laissez-faire, completely free market type stuff. It’s a spectrum.

Lmao you are literally the ‘but that’s not real socialism/communism’ meme right now 🤣

This comment will not go down well here, this site leans left pretty heavily and it’s easy to upset them lol

Not emitting is not that easy. We are in a transition period at the moment. Electric vehicles are here but we don’t have all the infrastructure needed to support them. Let alone the fact that battery tech is not developing as fast as we need it to.

Right now liquid fuels still have the advantage of greater energy density. If we could move to hydrogen fuels that would be cool, and we could repurpose existing petroleum facilities.

But who knows which way the tech is going to go. The only sure thing is that we are in for a wild ride one way or the other.

Lol

Lol yeh there’s still some wrinkles to be ironed out, I was accidentally posting loads of times because Jerboa told me my comment didn’t go through when really it did.

Lol you are delusional of you think reddit encouraged or tolerated right-wing speech. I was permabanned for opinions that aren’t even that extreme; those further to the right than me were constantly getting banned and coming back under new names and meme subs as the admins attempted to quash them.

You make it sound as if you were on the beaches at Normandy lmao chill out, you aren’t a fucking soldier against fascism.

Agreed, most of the content I see is whining about either reddit or Twitter, it’s boring af

At least it means I fuck around less at work

Going through post history is what pisses on reddit do, damn that site sucks and this one is only OK so far

Wtf for real? Fucking tankies are already trying to take over this place.

Oh God I hope so ha ha

As a conservative myself, I can say for certain the mods in that sub suck. They are exactly what they rail against, pisses me off so much.

Geez, was it really that long ago? Crazy

Lmao I’ve been permabanned so many times, reddit really has gone to shit the last few years…if you dare have an opinion that goes against the majority you’re in for a bad time. Fuck reddit.
