War on drugs. War on terror. War on crime.

At least in the book the government has an explanation for it. “War is peace” because the local population is much more nationalistic and supportive of the incumbent government when fighting a war. Critics of the government can be declared traitors and enemy sympathizers and locked up without trial. People are also more accepting of rationing and lowering the standard of living in order to support the war effort. The war doesn’t even need to be real. The government can just make up a war and get all the benefits that come from it.

Come on Ben! I just want to have a debate on gun control!

The US has something like 18 million military vets. There are a lot of people who have received professional training to hit a mid-range target.

Shooting Charlie Kirk? Celebration!
Posting of photo of the shooting? Too far!

Some places take forklift certification seriously, some don’t. There’s no way to get a driver’s licence without going through some government run program, whereas companies provide forklift certification to their employees. My work just gives it to everyone. I got mine day 1 and had never driven a forklift before. My friend works at a Walmart warehouse and had to take like 20 hours of courses and driver training before getting his.

Alright, I got an eighth. How do I trade it for music?

I was hearing Russian Hardbase

Still waiting for any kind of counter argument. Becoming a vegetarian is something anyone can do immediately and cuts their ties to an industry that is making climate change worse. Not driving a car or only using sustainable energy sources are great but not everyone can immediately switch away from these things.

Kurzgesagt has a video where they present a lot of research data on the topic if anyone is interested in sources to back up claims. I like the video because it’s prefaced by saying the hardest part of the topic is getting people to not be offended at the idea of becoming a vegetarian, or even just eating less meat. It’s difficult enough to get people to change their diets when it’s causing a direct negative effect on their own health, let alone some abstract negative effect on the planet. I understand. Nobody wants to change their diet, but it’s something people are capable of doing, and with so many benefits that come with it, I encourage people to at least give it a thought.

That’s true. Using your vehicle less is good. Not using one at all is even better. The same logic applies to eating meat. Less meat is good. No meat is even better. Your argument is the exact same argument for not eating meat. You cannot believe one is true without necessarily believing the other to be as well.

I feel like if I said “vaccines are safe and effective” you could respond with the same image and people would clap because that’s how conversations about important issues go today. No counter argument. Just “I have depicted you as the sad soyjack”.

Other than voting for politicians that put climate change as their top issue, not eating meat is another effective method that literally anyone can do without affecting their life. Things like buying an electric car or not using natural gas to heat your home might not be options available to everyone. We can all live normal fulfilling lives without meat. You’ll probably also save a decent amount on groceries, so that’s a bonus!

That’s 99% of saints. If someone prays to a random dead person to pull a favour with God and cure someone, and that someone does get cured, the person they prayed to can become a saint. Half as Interesting has a video on how it works.

No. Blindness is also a spectrum but not everyone is blind. There is a range of normal vision and someone is only blind if they fall outside of that range. However, two people who are deemed blind can have varying degrees of blindness and need varying degrees of assistance.

I thought it meant p-word. As in “wet ass p-word”

All your reviews are belong to us. You have no chance to positive. Make your time.

That’s literally what he’s doing. Ironically, his wife is a professional artist. She does digital art for a AAA game studio.

My friend quit his job and has been making indie games since 2015. It’s been 20 10 years and he’s made like $40,000 total in the time with all his games combined. His wife pays all the bills. Every time he releases a new game he tells everyone this is the one that’ll make him a million bucks. He points to games like Hollowknight, Stardew Valley, Undertale etc as proof.
