For one month of each year, traffic should have to go in reverse

As in backwards

the world is overpopulated and everyone who wants to have children should require a license to do so (and it should cost a lot - like, a mid-tier job's annual salary).

Cats are shit ass animals

Long distance vacations are irresponsible and selfish. We don't have the resources left to be wasting it on frivolous activities.

American conservatives have never been correct in opposing a liberal or progressive proposal.

Nobody should be allowed to own land. You can build a building and that building is yours because you built it but you can't make land and the only reason you own it is because someone in the past used violence to take it.

Tears of the Kingdom is overrated as hell. It's a decent game, but people act like it's the second coming of Christ or something.

There is no moral consumption under capitalism. A lot of people think they agree with that. But simultaneously also seem to realize that they aren't going to change the status quo. So they don't try. It's actually that there's no morale consumption under capitalism but I have to do what I have to do to survive so here we are.

The rich will fight with all they have to keep their investments secure and rent/prices for common people soaring. They will not relent till the bubble bursts, if it ever will. But pop society has tried to "fight" them for centuries, not realizing it is a futile battle and that social class hierarchy is not something humanity can live without.

So instead of fighting those monsters, society needs to assume their inhumanity as natural and try to work around it, instead of bickering about it. The government should take steps to make socially positive initiatives more lucrative for investment and allow gradual reshaping of their portfolios over time from overvalued things like real estate and pop media to better things like green tech and accessible healthcare.

People are judged more on their behavior than their gender identity or race.

"This" comments (on Reddit and Lemmy) are not a bad thing. An upvote is supposed to promote valuable content, not necessarily stuff you agree with. A "this" shows agreement. These are different things, and hunting down the "this" promotes the "upvote to agree, downvote to disagree" mentality.

(For example I said "this" to one comment on this thread, which was an unpopular opinion I agreed with. I upvoted plenty of other opinions I found interesting (and actually unpopular) while not necessarily agreeing with them.)

Suicide is the most efficient way to solve all your problems. But I don't agree with people who commit suicide by jumping off a building or hanging themselves, I think they should do it in a painless way so they can feel peace in the last moments of their lives.

Not everyone should be allowed to have children. Why? Because i believe my parents shouldn't have had children. But here i am anyway ;-)
