Unfortunately, Russia targets those.

Part of the equation here is the transparency. It's good that they are transparent and I do think they listen. Part of the interesting side to watch is the interaction with the community.

I don't think it was badly written for the time but it's definitely been gamed to the point where pickup trucks need to be part of emissions standards instead of exempt.

In the conversation on which successful country to emulate. I think the point is that one doesn't exist that's been successful. It's a societal filter.

I said no objectively incorrect things. You made the claim. Nope prove it.

So, you are saying we should emulate the United States? Are you following this conversation?

Climate denialists claim that climate action is a red herring for socialist changes. You literally are doing that.

At no point did I defend them. That's a strawman.

Insults mean you have run out of actual argument. Sorry about your reading comprehension. That must make it hard for you.

Yep, that's how they got elected. You're doing a great job describing exactly how they came to power. I'm not an apologist, you are an enabler.

Well, I'm sure your unpopular revolution will force through all the changes our society needs. Just like they did in Germany in the 1930s.

We'll, changes won't work on your system if they don't get implemented either. If your system is a catch-all for forcing through unpopular changes, don't expect to see much success. We have implemented comprehensive environmental changes in the past but it takes time and ground work.

So we all burn while you try to change the system instead of focusing on the problem at hand. Great and thanks.

It's not idealism. If you have a better solution that is not radical by design, go ahead. I was literally not specific intentionally. Go ahead, what instrument within the current system would work that are not regulations?

Those are some great definitions but that doesn't change the fact that literally anyone can find someone that disagrees with these positions. Forcing them on people will not get the reaction you want. That right there throws out any thought of regulatory capture being the sole thing at play. It can hardly be considered a plutocracy when a good portion of the populous agrees with it.

Even if that is the complete reality, very few people agree with you and antidemocratic actions will result in a massive backlash.

The more you attempt to shift to revolution, the more you counteract real meaningful change. There are market solutions to this problem and it's called government regulation.

Successful revolution and war will not help global warming. Failure will result in a massive social shift against these ends.

It is important for context to understand that this should only apply to unlimited data plans. Conceptually it is because there is limited spectrum available to consumers overall which limits bandwidth. Financially, they should not do this to anyone who is paying per gigabyte for their data plan. It's your data that you paid for. That has not stopped them from trying. If it is unlimited, it simply stops abusers from running an entire household off of spectrum that everyone has to share.

As per usual, the truth is lost in the nuance.

Under my current plan I get unlimited data and 10GB free tethering.

I definitely notice when I am not wearing pants.

In a society with capitalism at its core, externalities exist. That's a fact that everyone agrees with. Nonprofits help mitigate those gaps. Calling all nonprofits scams is misguided at best. I think OP is looking for something more specific. What nonprofits?

Like literally anything else in the office, ask the question and respect people's limits. It can add to a workplace culture but not enough to overcome making someone uncomfortable. My dog is hypoallergenic so it occasionally gets special visitation privileges.

This is exacerbated the longer your vehicle is. It is impossible to turn wide enough with my pickup truck to park forward because the front end swings too much. The more efficient car I take on normal commuting doesn't have this issue.
