Energy is volatile, there's only so much that can be done. Not every single fire is one that can be prevented beyond just not getting in the car in the first place (i.e. giving people a reasonable alternative via well maintained and affordable public transport.)
it is profitable for big chemical companies and whatever lobby makes the lawnmowers and weed whackers for everyone to have these big lawns that need to be maintained via mowing and pesticides. There are breeds other than bluegrass that don't grow that tall, chiefly buffalo grass, with deeper roots that make it generally more healthy, less patchy, less susceptible to weeds, etc.
It is convenient for the ruling class that we have to do all this maintenance individually, leaving us less time (and wealth) to organize and build community/alternative modes of governance. Divide and conquer and all that.
OK I lied here's a 3rd:
Western society is pretty much defined by our need to control nature/the world around us in outright denial of any consequences that might arise from doing so.
The third if you notice the comment you replied to is positive and implying Biden supports genocide
The only thing you've proven is that it is controversial enough for just as many people to upvote as have downvoted, your viewer just only shows the net result. Try viewing these in the browser for a more accurate assessment.
Trump doesn't support them because he got his ego bruised when they wouldn't give him dirt on Biden and his "perfect phone call" got leaked to the press. Before this phone call, Trump did support them, which is why he even had aid to withhold as an extortion mechanism. Also, Trump wants Putin to be his buddy. Also, this is the same deal Biden put up months ago (with Ukraine having lost ground in the war since then), Trump is just far less cordial about it.
The US is always two-faced about its foreign policy, which is to pretend to be an ally for as long as it takes to get smaller nations into predatory deals at their weakest and forcing them to give up the very resources they would need to pay us back. This is what it looks like to be a vassal state for the US, which seems to be what Zelensky wanted from the jump if we look at the facts of the situation. As the saying goes; live by the sword, die by the sword.
Unfortunately the war has come far enough that to not accept this deal is to subject Ukranians to even more death and destruction at Russian hands. It's the only way out for Ukrainian sovereignty. Zelensky knows it. Trump knows it. Putin knows it.
And when pushed on it, the Democrats backed off instead of defending them. This should have won them the election by your logic, but it didn't. Could it be your logic is flawed?
The system is not broken, it is working as intended. Telling you it's broken is so they can dangle "fixing it" in front of your face like a carrot on a stick, but it will never ever happen for as long as capitalists are allowed to run our world and make decisions for us.
You want "ways to counter that propaganda and lead people to understand their empowerment", the answer is and always has been class consciousness and historical materialism. It starts with you. Pick up a fucking book and seek it out. Cause I'm not seeing any ideas from you either and whether we like it or not, we are all in this together.
To achieve that level of wealth and maintain that kind of position, you must be willing to exploit people. It is a system that self-selects for the worst kinds of people that care about personal enrichment above everything else. It doesn't really matter how they treat people to their face.
If anything, trying to paint this as just "bad owners" is the more race essentialist version of this argument. That argument attempts to place blame on people who own them over the dogs themselves, who likely happen to skew towards lower income folks which implies a race skew as well. But, a "bad owner" would do a lot less harm with a Lab or even a Chihuahua than they would with a pit bull.
It's not just bite strength or temperament, it's that these dogs are intentionally bred to go for the kill when their fight instinct is triggered. Nobody sets out to be a bad owner, or believes they are one, and other breeds don't kill when they bite regardless of who their owner is. Eliminating "bad owners" isn't really a problem that can be solved to reduce dog bite statistics, at least without specific regards to breed, because it is specifically this breed with those "bad owners" that is the issue.
The switch cartridges have a bitterant added to them since they're small enough to be a choking hazard. It's not the smell of the construction material they're talking about.
You make less than $2.13 an hour, the federal minimum tipped wage?
