Its so incredibly obvious that Putin supports everything that will weaken USA/EU/NATO-“The West” in the long run, economically, politically, you name it. Everything that will disassemble these systems, make them more vulnerable to corruption, reduces the trust people have in them. How the hell do these ultra-“patriotic” right wingers not see this while Putin is so clear and outspoken about it?
My comment was more on the original post. You can’t just switch the content of a point because another one is made in a similar way and say it’s basically the same. Guess i got cautious with all the “Climate change activists are like a religious cult” arguments. Just because two groups are advocating strongly for something doesn’t mean one of cant have good arguments and the other one isnt full of shit. That being said, I agree that not willing to compromise to a certain degree or aim for intermediate goals is stupid and not productive.
“People who say murder is bad are exactly the same as people saying being gay is bad because both say something is bad.” You are very smart.
Oh and also don’t give a fuck about those millenials who started to play along and kicking down as soon as they got their share of what little is left of the cake. Fuck those pathetic little class traitors.
Millennial here. You are completely right. You were born in a world and a system where you are constantly told everything is all right if you just work and consume and yet everything is falling apart and we are destroying our world and ourselves doing so while the “rewards” seem to be further away and feel more shallow than ever. It does not make sense and it’s perfectly understandable to get apathetic over it. I only wish you would get more angry about it and less indifferent, but at the same I see that there is already way too much anger in the world and people are already constantly screaming at each other. Also, we didn’t do enough either and failed to bring much substantial change. Gen Z ist right in the way they feel. You are not lazy or unambiguous or “lacking drive” or whatever. And it’s also not the internet or smartphones or games or anime or whatever. It’s a society headed to its doom by living a lie that’s rotten to the core and the carrot you are supposed to chase starts to smell foul.
Never thought about that, but I guess you could easily create circular reasoning with two or more publications citing each other?
And the longest reach comes from… random mutation?
