- Comment on Killing every screwworm would be the best thing humanity ever did | Kevin Esvelt 2 weeks ago:
I don’t get it. Screw worms devouring animals alive is extremely painful, so we should eradicate them? The process of any animal eating another is basically always excruciating and fucked up.
- Comment on For my fellow Americans, when is enough enough? 2 weeks ago:
We should give people tax breaks if they vote.

What’s the name of the story?
- Comment on What is your pet peeve in 2024? 2 weeks ago:
People putting out buckets of candy for Halloween instead of handing it out at the door. No more social interaction or tradition. Just grab free candy and go.
- Comment on Hypothetical: Can a person "citizen's arrest" themself? And if so, how (and why) would that even work? 3 weeks ago:
If you citizens arrested yourself then the criminal would also be holding the arrester hostage.
- Comment on Has "Self-Driving" devolved? 4 weeks ago:
Probably, because it’s simpler. Driving on a highway is way less complex of a task than driving in cities.

Obama won before and he was part black. Why would that be a problem now?

Prioritize buying things with no Internet connection.
- Comment on Ok so coffee is made from coffee beans. And beans are *also* made from beans. Why is nobody making, like, black bean coffee? 2 months ago:
So if it’s not a bean, what is it? It’s not the fruit, so is it the seed?
- Comment on Why 🤷♂️ do users 👨💻 dislike 👎 the use ✅ of emojis 😀 on Lemmy 🐭? 2 months ago:
One thing I really hate is when people use that clap emoji between every word to try to solidify what they’re saying.
Doing that, or saying “full stop”, etc. doesn’t make me trust what you’re saying more. Explain why what you’re saying is correct. Use logic and sources.
- Comment on What kind of laptop should I get? 2 months ago:
I have both models and they’re fantastic. Perfect for second hand, too, since you can modularly upgrade and maintain them.
- Comment on Why not serve fried chicken on Juneteenth? How is it different from serving corned beef on St. Patrick’s day? 4 months ago:
IDK, the National Museum of African American History serves fried chicken every day, so they don’t think there’s anything wrong with it.
- Comment on What would happen if everyone moved there money from traditional private banks to credit unions/ coop banks 5 months ago:
IDK why people are interpreting your question about the mechanics of everyone switching at the same time. It sounds to me like you’re asking more about the bigger picture problems it would solve with society, not whether the sudden change would be able to be handled by the banks. Is that what you’re looking for?
- Comment on The current state of auto insurance: shit that belongs on a shady Kickstarter from 2013 5 months ago:
This should 100% be illegal.
- Comment on What do you do with Nazi memorabilia? 5 months ago:
It wasn’t clear to me from the post that it isn’t genuine. I interpreted the post to mean that it wasn’t famous in some way, just a standard issue dagger, but that it wasn’t a reproduction.

Can you give a concrete example so we can understand?
- Comment on Doug Ford suggests immigrants behind Jewish school shooting 5 months ago:
I couldn’t find much info doing a search - was the shooter not an immigrant and he is wrongly implying he was? Was it a different motive than what he implied?
From his wording in this clip it just sounded like he was saying “Canada is a peaceful place, so if you’re going to move here then don’t bring violence and problems from your country with you”, which seems reasonable to me. I didn’t see him say anything like “all immigrants are dangerous”.

- Comment on Should I permanently leave Israel? 5 months ago:
In the grand scheme of things, not paying taxes is also a pretty miniscule thing. The US funding for Israel is pretty big though. If the needed more weapons that your tax dollars would have paid for, I’d guess the tax dollars you paid in the US would go to the same place. I guess the alternative is to live in not-US and not-Israel. But either way, I think the US would just fork up more money anyway.
But the main point I’m making is, bad people will find a way to do bad things. The best way to eliminate bad people is to change their minds.

Ultimately a society is composed of many individuals. We all play a small part in its change.
