Progressive Reforms Remain Popular

it's so funny to me that conservatives think the reason university students become more liberal is because of the actual course material and not like. the fact that universities in the US introduce are oftentimes the first place Americans are introduced to a walkable environment with affordable health care, with community spaces for any affiliation under the sun where they give you free resources and cheap food. with included public transit and opportunities for training in your field of choice. and you realize that for how much you're spending on tuition/taxes, yeah, you do deserve these things, it would be insane not to have those. and then you graduate and go back to having to buy a car to drive 20 minutes to the grocery store.

It's genuinely terrifying to me how many people (especially U.S Americans) fully believe that if you don't work you deserve to be homeless. You deserve to die.

They will look you dead in the eyes and tell you that yes, they believe you have to earn the right to live. You have to be considered useful enough to be deserving of basic human rights.

The propaganda and brainwashing runs deep and it is killing people.

ISRAEL HAVE STARTED BOMBING RAFAH! THE PLACE THEY INSISTED WAS A SAFE REFUGE FOR THE PEOPLE OF GAZA! ALL EYES ON RAFAH!

This right here ^

I hate how acknowledging unfairness in the world is seen as "childish". Maybe children are right. I don't think you should be proud of the fact that you've become complacent with the state of your miserable existence and took on this loser "it is what it is" mentality. Things can be better.

one small ad screen consumes more energy than 3 average british homes annualy, (and there are rougly 30.000 in Britain alone) and online advertising uses up to 50x more of the CPU power than an actual website. also for an ad campaign to get just one purchase it has to show the ad 1 MILLION times. just imagine how much energy is needed for a company to get normal amounts of sales..

DESTROY. ADS. (before they destroy us)

they use soo much energy, like uncomprehensible amounts of energy, yet the amount of ads continually rises, and soon we need more energy to power vehicles and shit? ADS ARE UNSUSTAINABLE. fuck ads.

wikipedia no longer being anywhere near the top of search results when looking up anything feels eviscerating

The cruelty of racist white men.
