Like what? Do you think the current leadership listens to reason?
Not /s, literally
Billionaires have a selection bias
You can do that with like, 10 million usd or even less (1% yearly interest means 100k usd a year), and still have money left over to donate
Musk has about 30 000x that
Like, for example, if a person perfectly fit into nazi Germany… well…?
This is why it’s dangerous to not always be seeking the truth, no matter how uncomfortable it is
It’s going to come back to bite you sooner or later
Are you willing to take that risk?
Because I wouldn’t
Though, hell, it’d already be too late for me, as I’m trans. Thankfully I don’t live in the US
“it’s never going to happen” until it happens
How many “it’s incredibly unlikely the republicans do this” are we past now? Because it sure as hell is a ton
Mutual support like that is what’s going to make the world a better place, keep it up, it’s just what the world needs right now

I literally struggle to be mean to a bunch of pixels, just because they mimick a living creature. It’s also interesting because often it promotes a sort of dissonance, “I know this isn’t real… and yet I cannot help but feel what they feel… Even though they feel nothing”
I remember that video when it was new, and how very uncritical veritasium was
Disappointing
Honestly I’m surprised anyone would even want to sleep with a trumper. Like, what’s the appeal? It’s not like they treat women (or anyone, really) well
I am aware it’s difficult, but my point was that you aren’t powerless
Considering just how massive China is, they probably have the best shot at a truly independent “internal world” economy
