I don't really understand this stance... I mean, yes I get what you are saying and that is exceedingly shitty you have to choose between bad and worse; but is there really "no difference"?
I mean, if you have to choose between leaving your loving family vs having your loving family killed... is it really the "same" choice?
— actual quote of GP
I am not saying it makes no difference. I am saying how could she think it is a win for them. This is literally going to your gf and telling her that you fucked a girl raw, nutted inside of her, don't intend to stop but hey you didn't get her pregnant. Like yeah, the last part matters but wtf are you proud for? Shame on you. And how could you possibly think that your girlfriend ignores everything else, just because you didn't get the woman pregnant?
If you think this is the same as "no difference", you are mistaken. I would vote for bad over worse, it makes a difference. But don't be proud of it. Don't post it as a win. Be ashamed. Do better. And at least, intend to stop.
Where does it say it's a "win" for Dems?... that is all in your head... it simply shows less carbon emissions, that's it, that's all
Again, you are fighting demons in your head bud... I never even insinuated to be proud or celebrating... and honestly, neither did Hillary (as bad as she totally is) in her Xhitter message... simply implied Trump would be worse
If the “target” matters in a real way, then this graph shows a situation of no difference.
This graph is made to show the difference. It isn't the difference we want but it is still a difference.
And it is an actual difference... not the "make the difference, recycle that plastic container that will end up in the same landfill but we are pretending it's helping"
Of course it matters, climate change and global warming are not binary... It's not like if we go past x it's game over and the Earth will stop spinning, it's more like if we past x we can now expect shittier and shittier conditions and outcomes
Therefore, if we pass x by a bit, it'll be shitty but we may make it.... If we pass x by a mile and keep going, then all hope is lost
My friend and I have you locked in a basement. We both have decided your skin will be flayed off. I'm meek, so I'll be using a foot file, whereas my friend is crazier: he's going to be using a belt sander.
It's understandable that you don't want to get flayed whatsoever, but our basement is soundproofed. As mentioned, I'm meek, so my friend will take over the task if you scream after someone to save you.
Either way, you're going to suffer and eventually die, but wouldn't you rather take the chance that something else happens before the deeper parts of your dermis is reached? But nah, the choice is the same because the end result is the same?
