In his mind, protesting him is equivalent to protesting the USA. He IS the country, don't ya know?

I won't be carrying any kind of flag. I only have two hands, and my sign will occupy them. And I won't be buying a new outfit for the protest, either, because I'm poor.

Deliberately shooting a female Australian reporter with a rubber bullet didn't give good optics, either.

The sad thing is, if we had started taking measures to mitigate this when we were first aware of the problem, radical steps would not have been necessary. Now, we are in a crisis, and still we have deniers. And Abundance creeps.

I'm sorry, but your pipedream of taking radical action immediately is just that. We knew what was coming a half century ago.... crickets.

The damage that has already been inflicted is horrifying!! We are generations inside the Anthropocene extinction event, and it is accelerating. Climate change is an undeniable fact, and is accelerating, demonstrably and empirically.

It's sad how we've developed extremists on both ends.
We have the the fossil fuel powered 'don't worry, be happy' Abundance morons, and on the other end the hopeless doomers.
This polarization is not helpful. I'm not hopeless, but I do lean to that side of the spectrum. We are in desperate trouble.

I wish people would begin to correctly prefix the names of agencies that DJT has corrupted with "the Trump", as in "the Trump NSF" and "the Trump NIH". These formerly essential parts of our life, which have been perverted, should not be referred to as if nothing had happened to them.

The time to begin appropriately taxing the uber wealthy was 50 years ago. Four decades ago, the catastrophic populist President Reagan took us to the opposite, illogical, trickle-down philosophy that the morally bankrupt Republican party still clings to today. The uber-wealthy didn't build the city.

I'm continually puzzled that deep-sea methane hydrates aren't discussed more. Has the threat been overblown? Has the risk of massive releases of methane been exaggerated? Or is it that the possibility is so far down the road that more immediate threats are paramount?

Which is why a distributed protest, like NO KINGS, is essential. They will not be able to shut it down because they cannot be present in every city on June 14th.

Have you taken a look at the ICE thugs?

I wish The Onion would correct that headline.

Hmmm. Maybe this is news. Seems more like a confirmation to me.

It's so sad that people must pay a fee to consume so much that is relevant today.

If you're not a victim, hit the streets this Saturday, June 14th, for the NO KINGS protest, wherever you are.

It's an atrocity, but it fits perfectly with an authoritarian regime. The Dumbing Down of America was initiated 40 years ago, and has been spectacularly successful.
This is merely a culmination of a generational plan.
The goal is to keep the masses ignorant and controllable.

I'm not a science communicator, but Grammarly tells me that every dang day. It's a hard habit to break when you don't want to seem the agitator. But, environmentalists NEED to be agitators. They need to speak loudly! The opposition certainly does.

It's a sad commentary on contemporary culture that you'd have to take a normal video and translate that to a rediculous 9:16 video (blanking 70% of a screen) because smartphone users are to friggin' lazy to turn their phones 90°.

Well yeah! I am a supporter of both NPR and PBS, but you're late to the party, folks. This has been obvious for a long time.

The vast majority of humanity's problems root in the fact that there are too many humans alive today. Abundance is BS.
We are consuming our life support system.

I'm 100% behind letting Muck and Trump be the first to Mars on a one-way trip.
comment in response to
post
Let's hope you're targeting Mars specifically, and not space exploration in general. Our efforts in space are inherent to our species of explorers. And, has had profound benefits to everyday, earthbound humans.

I know practically zilch about Star Wars. But in the Star Trek universe, money is obsolete.

Sadly, the video cannot be viewed by me because I rejected optional cookies. That's ridiculous.
What part of the word optional do you not understand?

The concept of American Exceptionalism has ALWAYS been a crock of dog doo.

For those of us who don't have a cell phone glued to our faces; the original video was not in the idiotic 9:16 format.
