Instant subscribe from me. Lemmy desparately needs more of this type of content.
Pretend everything is fine so there’s no moral obligation to improve what is wrong with the world.
There are serious problems with this planet and you pulling the wool over your eyes does not make those problems go away.
Which inaccurate doomer myths? Because every time I hear this, it's "well, I'm sure that'll be ni-aaaaaaand it's climate denialism"
It’s certainly a nice idea for a community, but there’s already content in there that can be used to spread/reinforce climate change denial.
For example, this chart showing the decline of air pollution deaths: reddthat.com/post/16771065. That’s exactly the kind of thing that right wingers point to and scream “See? Fewer people are dying, the planet is fine!” Again, the intent is admirable, but this kind of content is ripe for repackaging as anti-climate propaganda. It’s going to do more harm than good if you collect it all in one place like this.
I tried opening this post in a web browser, & it tried downloading a binary onto my system??
When I tried reloading the page, instead of blank-page with some kind of underhanded downloading, it showed the post…
Not cool, but I’ve no idea who, or what, caused whatever it is that hit my browser, when I tried getting it to open this post.
Be optimistic and try running it! What’s the worst that could happen?
Nice to see another community on Reddthat
I’m looking forward to Trump’s state funeral.
He can still be impeached after leaving office. I look forward to his body being disposed of in ignominity.
Great idea, subbed
