Didn’t Columbus pave the way for Europeans to come to America?
@Salacious Swanky Cat i was done with Owen a while ago (even tho he can do good work). I'm fine with anyone having a different opinion but he lets his emotions control his actions/words, and he gets to many things wrong its sad.
Yeah, but that's not important. He may have did a bad thing, and if you do one bad all the good you did is undone
According to the sjws that’s true. Lol
I’ve never really paid much attention to Owen.
Ya, no one has to like everyone, its just difficult that so many i'm following solely agree with one person or another, and not even bothering to think about what is being said.
What do you mean?
I'm in so many youtube videos talking to people about how they are taking away any context in what people are saying (things like what Peterson was trying to get across, even if his idea was faulty), just to dismiss everything said (its normal, but still annoying).
Oh. Ok. So you find it irritating that people take statements out of context and then judge them based on the resulting strawman? Just want to clarify.
Mostly
but again its nothing new.
Yeah. I’m tired of outrage culture. It’s exhausting.
Jordan Peterson walked it back. No harm no foul. All he did was present an idea. Sheesh. I disagree with that point, but I’m not ‘done’ with him. I wonder what positions/comments that blonde was referring to when she said she was done with JP.
Before this Peterson stuff people got so wrongly triggered about, i was merely playing some games, and watching a few compilation videos about sovereign citizens running into police heh.
Really? When did you get sucked into all this? Ie. Red pilled.
I just meant this newest crazy, not how i've been dealing with these groups for a very long time.
Ah. I got red pilled maybe 2-3 years ago. Lol
Wasn’t ever on the left, I just never knew how bad the far left really was until then. I may have been a rhino at that point in time. Lol
I've never been left or right (even tho its not bad to be on a side), i've just thought its better to agree with the best ideas no matter the party/group. I wouldn't even know how long ago i've been fighting unreasonable people..... a few decades. In a effort to learn more about whats happening, 10 or more years i guess.
Interesting.
Authoritarianism is more likely inevitable in environmentalism, if people don't follow what they think is best. They will have to start controlling what people are able to do and not do.
Yeah. I’ve kind of noticed that. I argue with some on an energy news website. They always argue for more government control.
I wish we got more nuclear power, but people are still to worried about it. Even tho from everything i hear its very safe.
Ugh. I argue that a bunch. They spread so much misinformation about nuclear. It kills me.
We probably would be a majority nuclear country if the environmentalists hadn’t gone anti nuclear. No lie.
a lot of them are flipping now, as far as I can tell
Environmentalists? Yeah some, but not the ones I argue with. It’s insane what they say.
Shellenburger is an interesting guy, but he doesn’t necessarily characterize everything correctly.
He had a fairly good chat with Rubin once.
Yeah. I watched it. The environmentalists freaked out when he hosted Alex Epstein too. They think Rubin is just some Koch brother puppet.
he doesn't get money from them.....
its odd they still believe that.
Well, he did a collaboration with an organization that has some Koch funding. However, hosting Alex Epstein and not shouting him down is proof enough that he’s unclean.
I wouldn't really care who he collaborated with myself, as long as the person has good principles and hold to them.
Yeah. The jokers I argue with think the whole world should use 100% renewables. No questions asked. You are anti science if you disagree.
Don’t know what they think about agriculture yet, they could be even worse there.
Its always good to be smart about how we will treat this world. But that doesn't mean hurt the people living on it now, we will always get better at how we deal with renewable (technology wise) but right now, they cost more then they are worth.
Wind and solar are pretty cheap now. They just want to prevent nuclear with regulations. Even if it may be necessary for the future.
Wind and solar is some what cheap (after we pushed so much money in it) but it needs to get way better. They take up to much room and does cause there own environment problems and we aren't very good at storing the energy. It gives us very little of are overall % of energy. which isn't bad but like i said it still needs to get a lot better.
Well, that’s true to an extent, but the issue here is that these environmentalists practically think that supporting nuclear is a rejection of renewables. Apparently, you can’t support both.
which is silly.
