Almost a troll-like insistence on lack of nuance to an extremely complex situation

I believe black people’s lives matter. I hold that view so strongly that I’m willing to shout it in the streets. Does that make part of a political extremist movement?

That’s quite the false equivalence you’ve made there

I’ll take both please

Pretty sure Whole Foods had shitty conservative executives back then too didn’t they?

Right? Name one thing, anywhere in humanity, that somebody isn’t profiting from

Even accounting for how car-centric US cities are, I agree with that commenter. Yeah it may be hard to get downtown from outlying neighborhoods without a car, but sidewalks have ramps and building have access. Hell, the parking lots have designated parking spaces. Not true at all in most European cities

Edit: I guess it’s worth a little more nuance than just limping all European cities in the same category. The wealthier northern cities have definitely caught up a bit (though they all still have buildings that are completely inaccessible). The real problems are the southern cities like Rome, Madrid, Athens, Lisbon etc.

New one for the growing list of climate funds!

Does it really need to push the idea that a new conflict is coming though? The US military moves people around with unclear (public) reasons often.

They also make windows tickers that say “in case of emergency we have xyz pets”. Good to stick one next to the front door.

Statistical modeling.

And yes, I am miffed about the use of the word “exponential” in this post’s title.

It’s a stretch to say that because they invest in a company, that they “produce” the greenhouse gases that that company emits.

Yeah, they could invest elsewhere but it’s just disingenuous to say they’re responsible for all those carbon emissions.

I’m gonna get lambasted for this, but I don’t see the issue.

If the restaurant paid them more in wages, the customer would pay for that too in the form of higher on-menu prices. That’s just how paying for goods and services works.

Unless this is some mega-restaurant where the owners are making so much money that they could take a pay cut and meaningfully increase everyone’s wages?
