  That would be a surprisingly realistic bump in the middle where molten granite spiked upwards, but I don’t think nukes have quite that much power. Don’t get me wrong, they could end life on earth, but they won’t have the same or more localized impact than the meteor did.

  I think the name schemes were themed around fantasy fiction because that is what the AI produces and therefor its outputs need to be vetted properly.

  Well, I think Israel are horrible villains here, but I also think Iran might be a lot better off without the theocratic regime and with disarmed warfare capabilities. In a more ideal world, Iran would de-escelate and make amiccable relations with the west to avoid any future conflicts. In the world we actually live in, Israel is probably hankering for a hunk of that pie and will expand their borders.

  I would love to upvote something so fascinating as a sudden change or extreme rarity in ecology, but unfortunately I cannot in good conscience because doing so also promotes animal gore fetishists that exist in unfortunate numbers on general forums, youtube, etc.

  This post isn’t very region specific but I assume you’re talking about the USA.

  Steps:

  1. Vote DNC, Promote DNC, Volunteer DNC

  2. DNC ammends constitution to reverse the Citizens United Decision, removing money from politics.

  3. DNC ensures fair districting and proportional representation

  4. People now have the power to enact real meaningful change

  Simultaneously:

  1. Promote FairVote, educate people door to door and on the streets, buy ad space if you can

  2. Protect local broadcast infrastructure and donate to forums where people discuss these issues to keep them running

  3. Utilize Artwork to get people’s attention on these issues.

  The USA went into Afghanistan in 2001, NATO operations officially started in 2003, as per the articles you just linked.

  NATO Allies went into Afghanistan in 2001. From August 2003, NATO led the UN-mandated International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), which aimed to create the conditions whereby the Afghan government could exercise its authority throughout the country and build the capacity of the Afghan national security forces, including in the fight against international terrorism. ISAF was completed in December 2014 when the Afghan National Defence and Security Forces assumed full responsibility for security across their country.

  Article 5 was not invoked on Afghanistan, Article 5 was invoked over a year possibly 2 years prior after 9/11 which was not perpetrated by Afghanistan.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: Non-violent protests are 2x likely to succeed and no non-violent movement that has involved more than 3.5% of the country population has ever failed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So you’re saying NATO was mobilized without Article 5 even though NATO members voluntarily enterred Afghanistan? You seem to not understand what NATO is, it is a mutual defense pact that forces its members to participate in a war when one member is attacked, and that has never happened.

  You have challenged the assertion that protests in any way affect the outcome of elections or what choices politicians make.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: Non-violent protests are 2x likely to succeed and no non-violent movement that has involved more than 3.5% of the country population has ever failed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes but neither Iraq or Afghanistan were responsible for those attacks so NATO has never been mobilized. The US invasion of Iraq, as you already stated before, was not agreed upon by several NATO members including France.

  NATO Mission Iraq (NMI) is currently lead by France.
