  • Nobody represents the people, but that’s not a new problem nor, in anyway, a new thing in this Trump era

    My biggest fear is that the USA always gets to chose someone who does not represent them at all but at least had the notion that we need a planet to live in

    Trump is a man child and will see the world burn out of petty spite. And us, in the rest of the world, would have to still live with those consequences

    So back to the debate and the choice between Biden and Trump… Sure Biden is a terrible option, like chosing to get cancer… But Trump is like chosing to be gang raped, shot and left for dead in an open sewer and here we are pretending the 2 bad options are somehow the same















  • wtf? by what standard?

    if the climate change inaction (or worse, sabotage) did not convince you, I am certain the COVID behaviour should have

    Humans frequently band together during disaster

    If they are directly affected sure… otherwise people may throw some money (which is usually promptly embezzled) and move on

    humans care for their young and old

    Their own young, sure let’s say that is the common majority. Their own old? a lot more questionable. Other people’s LOL… can’t tell you how many people complain about their taxes feeding other people’s children. But this is not an argument against what I claimed… what I said was basically echoing what Tommy Lee Jones beautifully said in MIB, in a nutshell: a human (as an individual) can be AMAZING, but humans (as a herd) tend to default to he lowest common denominator and that sucks!

    humans don’t typically engage in cannibalism of the weak

    what do you think capitalism is?

    humans rarely fight to the death or even serious injury

    Ok, now you are joking… no matter how old you are, I know with 100% accuracy that you have never lived in a world where, somewhere, there was a military conflict and people were being slaughtered… I know because we have not had such a time since 1816 (and that may just have been an absence of records)
