I don't think so I think I just had tired parents who didn't have time to cook me a separate dinner if I was being fussy

I mean I get it but when I was a kid it was "shut up and eat what's put in front of you"

yeah poor

the colours and layout. If I didn't know it was a Klingon flag I would guess the middle symbol is fascist from context. It's clearly based on the nazi flag

when talking about safety how many people something has killed is useful information

deaths per watt hydroelectric is the worst and nuclear is one of the best

it wasn't even a big saving they were cutting cost on a wall

nuclear is on demand though which is it's great advantage over renewables

it is worth pointing out that the Fukishima plant had it's seawall bellow regulation height and had it's meltdown after seawater flooded the backup generator. This was an easily preventable disaster if they had just followed the law about nuclear safety

The whole drag queen argument where they point to adult shows and imply that the kids shows are therefore inappropriate is like saying thomas the tank engine is innapropriate for children because it's a cartoon and pointing to family guy as evidence cartoons are inappropriate for kids

I agree completely the kind of society that is capable of executing 4 million people is not one I would want to live in. And that's not just because of the sacredness of human life but also because to do so there would need to be institutions set up to perform executions on a mass scale and institutions perpetuate themselves. Eventually we would be executing people just because

Retributive justice doesn't help anyone there is no amount of punishment we can do that will undo what they did we could build a machine to torture them forever and their victims families still would be missing the mothers, fathers, sons and daughters they took

from the bible "Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days Look! The wages you failed to pay the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. "

hear we have a verse where underpaying workers is linked with the displeasure of God. Not only that but the actual profit itself is the source of condemnation and punishment

yeah based on what Jesus did say about wealth, fair treatment of others and community it is reasonable to deduce that He wouldn't have been pro capitalist.

this argument is not so strong though the issue there was that they were doing business in the temple. There are many many verses and themes in Jesus's teaching, the rest of the new testament, and old testament that while capitalism didn't yet exist to criticise very explicitly critique and reject the moral and philosophical basis for capitalism.

And while Socialism didn't exist yet a lot of proto-socialist groups and movements such as the 1381 peasants revolt and diggers (who are arguably the origin of anarchism) had explicit Christian origins so similarities between Christian religious values and Socialist values are no coincidence

Von Braun was not just guilty by association he utilised concentration camp slave labout

The soviets of course just took the research notes and therefore got rockets faster

when education is not liberating the dream of the oppressed is to become the oppressor

kids were just the foot in the door if they cared about kids they would give a shit about school shootings

yeah and it has been 5 years since the comic and there was a research team that did it

yes I'm sure he found it a lot more funny than I did.
