I mean, you can also dehydrate them. There’s loads of ways to preserve bananas.

How do you think you got bananas before oil?

Things that arent local and are produced with unfair labor must go up in price when those systemic issues are resolved.

If it costs you $30 to buy a banana delivered by fossil fuels and $1 to buy a banana that was delivered by sail boat, which would you buy?

Black people are more likely to die (due to systemic racism), so AI says: save the white person.

We saw this a lot at the height of the pandemic, which is why many nurses argued that the best triage method was random selection.

As always the problem isn’t inherently that AI exists. The problem is that humans trust its output and use that to make decisions (and the laws still allow them to do it in many jurisdictions).

That’s fine. It encourages everyone to stop carbon

The point of the carbon tax is to stop carbon.

This is how you get worse racism in hospitals

On December 11, 2008, ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson said that a carbon tax is preferable to a cap-and-trade program which “inevitably introduces unnecessary cost and complexity”. A carbon tax is “a more direct, more transparent and more effective approach”. Tillerson added that he hoped that the revenues from a carbon tax would be used to lower other taxes so as to be revenue neutral.[13]

Wtf, how is this possible? If your carbon tax doesn’t convince your biggest polluters to divest from fossil fuels, you’re doing it wrong.

The whole point is that it is not revenue neutral

Wait, when did you guys get a carbon tax? And how?

Glad to hear they’re supporting the side that’s been invaded and had land stolen from them in Europe.

Now please send long-range rockets to Palestine. Palestine has a right to defend itself.

But social movements? They stay. I WANT my local, provincial, and federal governments to show support for marginalized groups. That includes our LGBTQ, indigenous, disabled, visible minorities, etc.

This is how you end up with thin blue line flags and other dog whistle neo Nazi flags hanging at the court house.

Because, many will argue, the white male is now a minority thats being oppressed…

BC passed a law explicitly making it legal to sleep in a tent in Vancouver like 10 years ago

Yes.

Compared to your neighbor?

This is what happens when you do ethical business in a global, capitalist economy. Its not a bad thing.

commercial entities

Here in India, our police barracades have the names of banks on them. Its advertising revenue, but to me it looks like “the police are brought to you by…”

But, really, economic capture means its the same thing

Why would there be no toilets?!?

Thats why I’m saying that if they provided it, I’d buy it. Because its impossible to find a privacy friendly car. There’s a market for it.

Which one?
