Custoslibera,

These are the types of political memes I like to see.

Custoslibera,

Thanks mum.

Custoslibera,

I suppose but given the current world climate you seppos are spreading yourselves a little thin IMO.

Custoslibera,

This message brought to you by Raytheon.

Custoslibera,

Well I mean they shoot them on middle eastern basketball courts.

Custoslibera,

I was more suggesting that America inserts itself into other countries conflicts sometimes with benevolent intentions, other times not so much.

Either way America never seems to see a war it doesn’t like.

Custoslibera,

Whoa whoa whoa, let’s not get all political on the Marxist Leninist meme community.

Custoslibera,

My dude. The capitalists are not the people who made those devices. Workers made those things.

Custoslibera,

I’d recommend posting a tangentially political meme at some point on Lemmy.

The amount of people who will come out of the woodwork to tell you ‘don’t post this’ and ‘don’t make things political’ will really be eye opening.

People don’t want to address systemic issues and think not talking about them is a viable solution.

Custoslibera,

Then the capitalist should only be entitled to recuperate their initial investment + whatever personal effort they put in.

How can it be the capitalist captures profit many years after those first two occurred?

Custoslibera,

Honestly if this meme passes for controversial then the world has gotten a whole lot more lame.

Custoslibera,

A large proportion of Lemmy are not pro-capitalist, yes.

Custoslibera,

And with a partner who is undoubtedly attracted to you no less!

Look at you go.

Custoslibera,

I disagree strongly about the US not being suitable for public transport.

There are large cities that could introduce effective metro services and that would be a vast improvement.

Rural areas can remain ICE/BEV.

Custoslibera,

The fact that the implementation of public transport is poor is not a criticism of public transport.

Custoslibera,

No I don’t.

In that context private transport meant cars.

Custoslibera,

It really depends on the new model of car you choose to replace your outgoing one.

This was the website that I have been thinking of:

You can see some electric cars are far worse than a hybrid as an example.

Custoslibera,

I found this analysis quite interesting:

www.carboncounter.com/#!/explore

Custoslibera,

Which ones?

Custoslibera,

It’s to be expected I suppose.

Too many people think upgrading their car to electric is ‘doing their part’ but when they are replacing a vehicle less than 5 years old with an electric car they also intend to replace within 5 years, they haven’t helped anything.

Also people don’t want to feel like the action they took is actually unhelpful.

They like greenwashing and want to feel good about their choices. Applying critical analysis to a complex problem like climate change is hard compared to buying a Tesla.

Custoslibera,

The bicycle is one of humans greatest achievements.

Custoslibera,

Oh I’m reasonably confident if we got rid of cars that’d be a good thing for the climate.

If there was plentiful mass transit the need for electric cars is reduced greatly.

Cars are terrible forms of mass transport and societies need to deprioritise them in city planning.

The idea that we can just keep doing what we’re doing and replace all ICEs with BEVs and it’ll solve climate change is not really the full story.

Now if you’ll excuse me I’ll go back to my mouth breathing.
