Then you learn that the "something" they want to do is the exact opposite direction of what solving the problem would look like. It takes 2 seconds of critical thought to realize I'd much rather stick with the "milquetoast centrists" than ever consider voting for regressive conservatives.

People always point to the worst of the worst to justify the death penalty, but it's not about them. It's about us. I just picture people who support the death penalty the same as medieval peasants cheering on the gruesome torture and execution of a criminal like its some kind of entertainment. People need to do more introspection about what part of their personality they are feeding when they give in to the desire for vengeance. That's not even taking into account that no justice system is perfect.
But... but it was the house that passed it... the house is currently run by republicans...
I mean it is an accurate description of it, so that might be a connection... but if you know the actual history of the term then please share
I don't know why, but I never made the connection of this pose to the term "reared-up" (meaning ready to go/launch) until recently.
I don't know much about investing, but i wonder if it would it be a good time to short those companies?
I remember a documentary about a famous northwest passage expedition that was never seen again. One of the inuit people they talked to during an investigation claimed they found a boat, and in the captain's quarters they found a body in the bed with a big smile on its face. That would be absolutely terrifying, but apparently that's what naturally happens to corpses when their lips and gums receed.
That's a much taller order than you make it sound. It'd probably be easier to figure out fusion.
Fusion is the first step to a post scarcity world. All the new technology, products, agriculture methods, ect. that would be made possible with abundant, clean energy would completely transform the world. I doubt solar and wind could ever provide enough to make those advances.
Seems like that would make it easier to counterfeit. How do they keep up to date with which designes are valid?

Some issues really don't straight up exist. Outrage TV will always come up with something to stir people up. Other issues are pretty complicated without any promising solutions, so it may just seem like they're being ignored. Conservatives will focus on those and claim to have the answer, but then their answer is something like "to eradicate poverty we need to put poor people in jail".
