What does your comment have to do with ecology? Just because China plants trees (news flash, so does the US) doesn't erase the fact they are far and away the biggest emitter of carbon emissions and have high levels of pollution.

Glad they are trying to do good things though.

It doesn't even come close to China. So if we're a nightmarish monster, I would hate to think what that makes China.
Explains the left too. Everything is seen through the lens of racism, sexism, etc. because leftists are themselves consumed by such things.
That’s just anthropomorphizing the universe, which cannot learn or think and therefore cannot impute meaning. It is simply your opinion that something has meaning on an individual level. It may to you, but it’s purely subjective.
Who defines what “better” is? You’re a collection of atoms put together by a meaningless evolutionary process. In that sense, “better” is purely your preference not some objective truth. And in this case, some people prefer to kill and eat animals.

And those that exaggerate all its deficiencies are upset they weren’t in on the cryptocurrencies. Wonder what comes next…
Re:The future of privacy rights in a post-Roe world on Wednesday June 29, 2022 @01:30PM (#31923225)
Roe vs Wade upended precedent before it, so precedent alone is a bad argument. The majority ruling specifically rebutted what it thought were nonsensical arguments in the Roe decision for tying the right to privacy to some inherent right in the constitution. Neither right should be viewed as constitutional and even if the right to privacy were, tying abortion to it is a fantastical leap of logic.
