I engage politics, environmental issues and pseudoscience on twitter. I don't take BS for an answer| occasional kitty pictures | Atheist/anti-theist

I want to stress I am not here on twitter to insult anyone for their beliefs. I want to have rational, open and respectful debates with anyone from #FlatEarth #creationism, fundamentalist #Christianity and far right and left #politics.
Please be respectful and open minded as well

I’ve talked about this concern for awhile.

When he leaves office, he’s going to be even more of a national security threat. Cable news won’t be able to resist booking him, and he’ll be spilling all of our secrets for the world to see.

It’s not about Meatloaf.
It’s not about me.
It’s not about what some people call me.
It’s not about left or right.

It’s all about scientific facts.
And that we’re not aware of the situation.
Unless we start to focus everything on this, our targets will soon be out of reach.

Der Berliner Senat hat die "Klimanotlage" beschlossen. Damit ist Berlin das erste Bundesland, das die existenzielle Krise offiziell anerkennt.

Die neun der zehn heißesten Jahre seit Beginn der Aufzeichnungen in Deutschland? Alle nach 2000.

2018 war mit einer Jahresdurchschnittstemperatur von 10,5 °C das heißeste Jahr. 1940 mit 6,6 °C das kälteste.

@MrxFFM Diplomatie abbrechen bringt uns auch nicht weiter...
Es könnte das ganze sogar verschlimmern.
Da wäre ich vorsichtig

@OCpatriot123 @janelleybelley2 @The3006Batt Anthropogenic! I have spelled it wrong. My bad!

[Things and Stuff @Rants4Science]

@AidanCarr20 Also, thank you for this debate! It's rare to have these kinds of talks on the internet, so thank you! I'm glad we found common ground and stayed respectful. Kudos! :)

[Things and Stuff @Rants4Science]

@AidanCarr20 Yup!
I would expand that to that we are animals. We just as much part if nature as they are. What makes us different is our (somewhat) unique ability to shape nature to suit us which is what allowed us to set us apart a bit from most animals we see today

@AidanCarr20 What needs to be taught is that gender differences in terms of ability to learn and think, and function as a valuable member of society is entirely arbitrary. And even hormones do very little for the differences that are there.
In the end, what needs to be taught is equality

[Things and Stuff @Rants4Science]

@AidanCarr20 Either way. Who she is doesn't matter in the end.
Women aren't short sighted, and they don't need to learn how to not be short sighted. It implies than men don't have to learn that.
In the end all people can learn the same things regardless of gender.-

@OCpatriot123 @janelleybelley2 @The3006Batt I do try to understand. And I would say for some part I do, tho it's admittedly hard. But that's all the kore reason to reach out to people are discuss opinions.
In my opinion and experience, that has only really allowed me to grow as a person.
I try to keep an open mind

[Things and Stuff @Rants4Science]

@OCpatriot123 @janelleybelley2 @The3006Batt Yes, I've been surrounded eith music (and science) all my life. My parents are both PhD chemists and my mom plays piano fantastically.
I do get that my social bubble limits what I can understand. But I hope you see that this discussion is my way to broaden my horizon

[Things and Stuff @Rants4Science]

@AidanCarr20 I have a great mother who is outgoing, intelligent, and a phd chemist.
Nit talking from a point of authority, that's not what I'm trying. But from personal experience I have met many women that are absolutely capable, if not even better suited for more "masculine" jobs

[Things and Stuff @Rants4Science]

@AidanCarr20 I for one, 21 year old female, do love my fair bit of confrontation. I'm politically active. Not to the point of having a significant role (I'm in university) but politics, criticizing it and science have been my fields of interest ever since I could think
