Wealth owners: billionaires should be degraded to millionaires, starting from the industrial revolution. and voila!

in Canada they are still allowed to drive those 2004 Peterbilt trucks that run with no emissions controls (no dpf, no euro 7 emission standands: just plain, NOx rich, diesel exhaust gases straight to the atmosphere). If anything, it would help to boycott canadian products.

Maybe i am wrong then. Also probably funded by imperialists. Politicians are pointless and will never fight corporate owners for the people. The middle man need to be cut and power should be controlled by the people directly. Retirees were already erased long time ago.

Shocking reality sometimes. Personally i got disappointed when i tried to look for engagement in the wrong places, sometimes you need to ‘feel’ the people out and see if your interests fit them or not, or you can try to find a middleground between you and them, maybe this sound too ‘incel’ from me but sometimes internet is the best place to find like-minded people, all while keeping real life in mind. As proven above, i keep using an unpopular app among lemmies, but i dont really take the sentiment to heart: i try to pick the jewel from the garbage, and then share it with my favourite people, i get confirmation, then i profit! i even use trash apps like tiktok and Zuccapp but luckely i could hide behind a DNS if i dont want to be tracked, then i freeze those apps when i am done. The internet now is more addictive than ever, i hope no one get caught into it much. So you are handling this as it should ^^

meh, i doubt so. The french has this Zemmour dude that keep bringing this up all the time, i hope they see through it too. For immigrants, France is just a transit zone.

Lemmy has good quality content but also not as addictive as other platforms. Also the audience is maybe more mature, techy and less artsy. You should still keep posting though, your posts will be recognized years later in the future. Luckely the internet doesn’t forget.

i am using connect, and running the same word filter too lol was afraid this post wouldn’t reach enough people 😭 First 30 upvotes make me feel like a superstar thou 🤣

italians (and the japanese) can see through the bs all along

Also an article with the same spirit as the post: Congress may let jet owners like Elon Musk block flight info

politicians only role is to be against the person in charge, even just out of spite to look like they are aware of the shortcomings of said governing body; they just like to stir things up in order to stay relevant, while in fact they dont really add any value to society. Just another middleman between imperialists and the bottom 80%.

Yea i know: in a former post, american ‘lemmies’ ? argued that 100k$/year salary puts you in the top 10% of american society, and apparently 75k$ earners are just homeless people, hence the 80%…

decentralize governance, fediverse style. Senate my ass.

yea, above comment is very confusing…americans and their egocentrism …

americans ship goods from the west to the east cost through the panama canal ? you serious ?

US bound, from … China for instance ? want to run an elecrtified train from China to the US ?

it can’t be more efficient than this: airlines and coal have ruined the canal for everyone. maritime and rail shipping are very efficient.

back then climate change (cc) wasn’t too obvious: but now we got wildfires, melting icebergs, venise going underwater (which is nice in fact): awareness can spread much quicker now with the advent of internet. people realize the damage when they see immediate consequences, when most of the time it could be late at that point …

buying useless stuff, price gouging, consumerist practices like planned obscolecense and just accumulating needless wealth all happen on the expense of climate. future decades will dictate how much people are allowed to live on this earth and hopefully how much wealth is one allowed to accumulate in a lifetime. so far we need to abolish the united states, third world has emission extent next to none, europe being europe, and china with its growth, is at least proactive toward climate (maybe should it work on human rights more maybe ? i dont know) , and even after an afterthought, living in a very hot/cold place is in fact very energy intensive: take for instance the middle east where every household is equipped with AC’s running 24/7: living in such climate is just ineffcient ( i would wager living between the northern and southern 30° parallels is a waste of energy ) also is living in canada and scandinavia beyond 60°N: so ideally living in between the 30 and 60° parallels is more efficient, and now you have to adjuste population growth accordingly, and all this is leading to communism since it implies living space sharing. accepting immigrants should be the norm, but at a predetermined rate. also billionaires shouldnt exist: all that accumulated wealth going into waste that could reflect the amount of emissions generated by the person withholding it.

on the consumer level, a certain ecological could be followed: like avoiding owning an iphone, an android that lasts for 7-10 years should be fine, a car for 25 years, have the credit of bringing one child per marriage, maximum 2 children from 2 marriages. The rest is government level: ensuring public transportation, producing renewable energy, avoiding useless student debt, buildling insulation…also it helps if politicians dont take lobby money and did actual work to benefit society, and also fend off corporate greed. a single person shouldn’t be accountable for all the pollution

sure, since its not a single person planet: everyone should have a say on someone’s behaviour toward the climate

Mr Ramsey here talkin!

i see, time for food calorie stamps i guess …
