Disruptive protests especially when you don't already have widespread support are dumb. The George Floyd protests only worked because there was widespread outcry throughout America. The people were already united on the same issue, and there was widespread agreement that immediate and radical change was necessary. Little to nobody gives enough of a shit about climate change at the moment to actually do anything about it, so protests only end up pushing away people that might be on your side.

The move should be to first garner massive and widespread support before being disruptive. It's like attempting a socialist revolution with a tiny army. You lose!

Protest all you want. I'm not getting late to work because of you. I also care about the climate, but holding up traffic isn't going to get me on your side

You for got Sanders

I'd use Nietzsche's quote, "God is dead" to explain why we don't need religion and how Nietzsche used it to explain why we need to look for other sources of morality and ethics, but I'm too lazy to type rn.

Regardless of whether the US decides to uphold climate policies or not, the world is fucked. Climate change efforts must be global. The US has no bearing on it.

Bro's still going 💀

Floppy disks💀

Based?

Fair enough

Guess that explains why Trump is back

Hmm interesting context i didn't know about. It would seem to me, however, that this is only a reflection of the direction the party leaders are taking the party towards and not actual sentiments of party members. The democrats are a huge contradiction basically.

How come i get results though?

The way i see it, the global center-left refers to political ideologies and parties that advocate for a moderate form of social democracy or progressive policies while still operating within a capitalist framework.

In America, center-left describes individuals or movements that align with progressive or liberal values which includes things like support for social welfare, promoting civil liberties and backing environmental initiatives.

Although I'm not American, this is how i usually see them being portrayed in the media, so i could be glossing over some things.

It's just too unbelievable that he would (or anyone for that matter) would unironically do a Nazi salute

There are also left wing fanatics aka...

This take i agree with. I still have reservations on what Musk really was intending to do there. There's a slight variation in the way Musk did it and the way the Nazis used to do it, but it still demands an apology regardless of the facts.

Yeah i think I'd still rather plead ignorance and naivety on this one

You never outlined why you think the US is untrustworthy. I am however saying that regardless of the facts, China is just as untrustworthy if not more so.
