Do you think that’s a typical experience for the average American

Okay. How many senators have you gotten coffee with?

Yeah I know, it’s actually the same one I use on my CNC machine. The OP just said PlayStation as kind of a general purpose term

Okay. How do we influence those state representatives to pass that legislation?

[–] Minotaur@lemm.ee 5 points 7 months ago (11 children)

Okay, well you just added several steps right there, and you’re still missing some.

Who increases fuel taxes and subsidies? How do we as a civilization get that done?

Well, those are two very different things. One is essentially for politicians and basically amounts to “just get Congress to do better” (a whole lot easier said than done) and one is an act that essentially has to be championed by a person or organization and then implemented by a masse of people. Greta has called for boycotts before, so under this definition she’s good under your boat.

I’ve read other comments of yours, and many of them are reasonable (more reasonable than the average user at least) and not worthy of downvotes. But your solutions seem to be missing a few steps between “be where we are now” and “just get everyone to drive a hybrid”.

Yes, you, the guy who loves cops and wants more cops and supports everything god king Biden does is definitely a good progressive, and definitely not just a fascist wearing blue.

Genuinely curious: what does a “serious person” do to change minds here?

Brother I don’t want to be mean but are you like genuinely schizophrenic or something because I genuinely cannot comprehend anything you’ve tried to say this whole time.

I’m a progressive leftist.

Just as a fun fact, it’s actually quite common for industrial machinery and the like to be controlled with a gaming controller. Like, a hundred things wrong with the submarine trip - but the PlayStation controller is genuinely one of the more legitimate aspects.

They’re simply made well, easy to use, and typically extremely durable and long lasting.
