thinking4real··on Los Angeles Bans New Oil Wells, Plans to Close Existing Ones
I mean that’s the thing no one’s going to talk about but it should be priority 1.

We have leaders who see the people suffering, see inflation rising, the dollar shrinking. They see power being a problem worldwide. They see people struggling to stay afloat and classes shifting downward in quality of life.

And they keep amping it up. I get the sense this is the wrong site to say this, but I remember in early 2000s Al gore claiming that double digit percentages of Florida would be underwater now.

If I’m understanding, that’s the basic justification for all these energy sources we have available to simply not be used. But afaik Florida isn’t under the ocean any more than when the documentary came out, but people sure are feeling the effects of global manipulation.

I’m sure I’m going to get downvotes and some very witty responses

thinking4real··on Neuralink faces federal probe, employee backlash over animal tests
Just looked it up and over 23 million animals are killed every single day just in the US.

This is just for land animals. Including seaside brings it somewhere around 150 million a day.

To think that now all of a sudden 1,500 animals over months or years matters is laughable. Anyone criticizing musk needs to either stop and reflect on how their society is causing all this animal murder, or at the very least realize how irrational they look getting worked up over this.

This site is full of wanna be tech entrepreneurs. This crowd, at least when they aren’t in a serious success stage, often is working hard and not understanding why they aren’t winning.

(I’ve been in this stage before)

They see someone like musk, and it threatens their ego. So they attack him every chance they get. They project their own shortcomings and insecurities onto him.

But imagine the hubris of doing this. You can rest assured these are the ones who’ll be stuck in this stage, because they aren’t focused on growing they’re focused on protecting their egos.

And Musk is ego threat number 1.
