Our biosphere is being sacrificed so that rich people in countries like mine can live in luxury. It is the sufferings of the many which pay for the luxuries of the few.”

Txtittyfag, I'm not sure what's so stupid about stating that exploitation of the planet's resources so that a few can become super rich due to their commodification, is ruining the planet and thus threatening civilization as we know it. Its a fact that the US and NATO are the muscle behind said plutocratc/oligarchs/corporations. Unless you're denying global warming and wars for control of natural resources that the US and NATO nations are engaged in.
Ahahaha. Last week I was hanging out with somebody, who I otherwise like. But somehow North Korea authoritarian’s government got brought up and she had the nerve to come back with the quip “just like life for black people in America”
Me: well good thing black people are able to leave the country then. And the government doesn’t kill family members for escaping.
Which she nodded and then went right back into BLM talking points. Good lord I’m starting to loose patience for woke people. I may need a fruit cup soon (albeit one spiked with the loser leaf)
Warrior, why do you believe that the US population should be limited to right wingers who tote the extreme right of the Republican Party line?
Seriously, what could a 15 year old know about the actual science behind supposed climate change besides what she was indoctrinated with?
She sounds like the perfect youngster for our resident no facts just fling it on the wall and see what sticks disciple rumdummoron to emulate. Maybe he'll tell us she voted for Goldwater. Who knows, they're both emotional impressionable young girls, they may end up being kindred spirits and sharing pics of their favorite Barbie fashions.

Mexico City, has so many people and cars on the streets, that if one is interested in hookers, likely best to find a bar, or you would really have to know that area.

Major advancements in pot smoking and TV watching are typically done by the bottom 1%.
Now, travel to some third world countries and tell me whether wealth causes environmental harm or solves it. I’ll wait.
Also, because we continue to create an underclass, being told that they are defective, pot smoling and TV watching remain real strong. We create our own bottom.
Gates and Buffett are committed to destroying our public schools, with their money. I have already had to work politically to counter them.
People like Gates and Buffett profit, but most of the key inventions are always made by others, mostly those getting nothing more than a pay check.
Technological advances can be good. But we have to use that good to benefit everyone, because it always destroys jobs, and deskills jobs. And this corrective has to come from the public sector. We could be living in a paradise, in fact we are racing to become a third world country ourselves.

Now true, much of this press for industrial advancement has been to make better ways of killing people. as he calls it, killingry.
But then in peace time there are developments in livingry.
This is the real wealth, not dollars, but life support, the things we need to live on Space Ship Earth.
We already produce enough. And you have to choose, do you want to make Dollars, or do you want to make Sense?
We spoil everything because we demand that everyone prove that they can 'earn a living'.
