  Lead was out of gas for new cars starting in the '70s. It wasn’t actually banned in the US until 1996 (1990 in Canada). There were leaded and unleaded pumps all through the '80s.

  Socialism so far has an absolutely terrible track record with environmental protection. Unless you’re just talking about being able to directly force societal change in general, in which case you’re arguing for eco-flavoured despotism.

  Socialism doesn’t even promise environmental protection, rather being focused on worker rights and minimizing inequality.

  If the earth isn’t flat, how can there be flat-earthers?

  Race can be pseudo-scientific bullshit, and still have a bunch of racists around. The idea of race is, at its core, a racist idea.

  A1 has a direct drive extruder. It does function as kind of a hybrid thing with the AMS though. Use of the AMS with TPU isn’t recommended, but there are a couple of harder TPU filaments that supposedly work.
