@SenSanders How many private jets do you fly on in a year?
I’ll give up my AC when you give up air travel and donate your salary to the EU for their quest to solve climate change.
Communism is the ultimate expression of man's arrogance, a laboratory experiment that can only survive and sustain itself within that very laboratory.
LONG LIVE FREEDOM, DAMN IT...!!!
@sdkassis Air conditioning uses the same machines as heat pumps. Are you against them?
Are you against heating in winter?
Suggesting people should suffer needlessly is cruel and stupid. Technology is there to improve people's lives. There's no virtue in being miserable
I agree we need to ditch net zero. The target is meaningless as it measures territorial production emissions. We're meeting it through deindustrialisation which actually increases global emissions
But there is no green economy to speak of in the UK and the little there is requires subsidies to exist
We need an Energy Ministry to oversee the huge challenges in maintaining cheap, reliable energy supplies
No slogans, no ideology, just an old fashioned ministry taking care of energy like we used to have before departmental names started being political labels
No one wants new sparkly ideas, they just want the stuff which used to work to work. Babies safely delivered, trains that run on time, streets that are clean, pubs that can afford to stay open & homes that people can afford to live in.
GrapheneOS opposes authoritarianism. It's a core part of why we're building privacy technology as part of a non-profit open source project. We're opposed to it regardless of whether it comes from left, center or right. The flood of people lying about what we believe and have said won't change this.
Our beliefs are not defined by what people who use GrapheneOS or donate to it believe. We decide what's acceptable within our community and we do a lot of moderation. We don't police what's done fully outside it. We clearly won't only have users, donors and supporters with beliefs aligned with ours.
We don't usually allow much political discussion in our community unless it's directly related to GrapheneOS. Today has been a very good demonstration of why that's the case. Many people are unable to tolerate even a minor disagreement on semantics without being absolutely enraged over it.
@GBNEWS@EssexPR Talk to china , the US and India then we can have a conversation about our contribution and what impact it will have if these countries also contribute
