Transhumanists would rather fill the world with these nightmarish abominations than accept the fact that their morality is fundamentally flawed.
There is NOTHING morally wrong with slaughtering animals. Livestock can be raised and slaughtered 100% humanely. They can live happy, healthy lives, and have painless, stress-free deaths. I know this for a fact, as that's how we do it on our farm.
In nature, prey animals depend on predators to keep their numbers in check, and prevent them from destroying their own environment and, thus, themselves through overpopulation. In ethical animal husbandry, humans have simply taken on the role of a supremely benevolent apex predator that grants their "prey" lives and deaths that are far, FAR better than those their wild counterparts get to experience.
Thus, converting wilderness to farms already results in a HUGE decrease of animal suffering, and on truly ethical farms, animals don't suffer at all.
Hence, I believe pushing for cruelty-free farming is a much better and healthier strategy than trying to spawn horrific, brainless flesh robots in an effort to solve a non-existent moral problem.
Not sure why people can’t comprehend how student loan/debt should be treated as a scandal.
Most of us were TOLD at school…. When we were CHILDREN, you’ll get a loan which will have minimal impact on you, don’t worry about it too much, just apply on UCAS and hope for the best.
No one told us about the increase of crippling interest, how it will affect your ability to buy a house and your general take home income, with little hope of paying it off…..
No one thought …. Let’s ensure these financial products are fully understood by these bunch of KIDS who have never even had a credit card or an overdraft in life.
How can people understand misselling for car loans, Accident claims, loans sharks, but not this??
Rachel Reeves should be very careful arguing only graduates should pay for their degrees
Would be a lot of cold pensioners without our generation’s taxes. I don’t make much use of the nuclear deterrent either
Education is a public good, not a commodity
Left: Rachel Reeves, "It is not right that people who don't go to university are having to bear all the costs for others to do so"
Right: Oli Dugmore, "If Reeves wants to make the argument that you shouldn't be paying for things that you don't use, there will be a lot of pensioners who don't get a pension"
Victoria Derbyshire, "I don't if Rachel Reeves is watching, you've just punched through the television"
Oli Dugmore, "People we want in our society.. I'd be very open to select courses, whether its engineers, doctors, nurses, no fess, go qualify, we want you in our country"
Victoria Derbyshire, "Who's going to pay for that?"
Oli Dugmore, "Central government"
Victoria Derbyshire, "Tax payers?"
Oli Dugmore, "Yeah, absolutely"
Victoria Derbyshire, "So people on low incomes are paying for some people to have free university education?"
Oli Dugmore, "Education is a public good, not a commodity"

£20 billion is the cost of cancelling all student loans
£10 billion is the annual cost of abolishing tuition fees
£90 billion is the lost tax revenue because of Brexit
#RejoinEU cancel student debt, make education free again because it is, as Oli Dugmore said, a public good
I find this stuff so strange. Yes, rain patterns have changed. Climate change is real. But we also haven’t built a major reservoir for 30 years whilst our population has grown significantly in that time. Most of the climate lobby also hate water companies because they’re private and extract profits without investing and dumping sewage. And yet they don’t blame the same water companies or the NIMBYs for a lack of reservoirs meaning we don’t actually have any water for humans without depleting it further for nature. It’s just total degrowth. We can just build stuff.
amazes me how many ppl actually loved coding… llms made me realize i didn’t really care for coding, i liked inventing solutions to my problems and code was just means to an end
The UK is about to legalise partial birth abortion for any reason at all, up to birth.
Partial birth abortion involves delivering the baby halfway through the birth canal - and while it is half-in, half-out, sliding forceps into the baby's skull and sucking its brains out.
