To the point that the official energy production dropped 10% year over year recently (because people install their own, independent solar panels).

This was mentioned by author Bill McKibben in a podcast episode of Why is this happening?

And who is to blame for that?

Of course it is the anti-science, anti-public health republicans.

So you want to appear to be very rational, right? And you want people to believe that you argue in good faith, right?

Well, are you able to form a sound and formally valid argument that contains the phrase "no one has changed the measles vaccine requirement in 2025" and a corresponding conclusion?

Has RFK, jr actually spewed out TONS of misinformation and antivaxx propaganda? Yes, he did(1).

If you do not see any problem with the current administration I can only see three possible reasons, either you

• are extremely ignorant
• do not care because you (incorrectly) think it does not affect you (negatively)
• are chearing on because you think they are hurting the right people

Which is it?

Facebook and genocide: On the importance of new evidence for Meta’s contributions to violence against Rohingya in Myanmar

Abstract
For the broad public increasingly critical of technology companies, the Rohingya genocide in Myanmar
has come to illustrate the evils of Facebook and its parent company, Meta. At the same time, the
Myanmar case has become an influential template for understanding the dangers of social media, past,
present, and future, as well as developing solutions. Yet this template is strikingly narrow: it has been
limited to content that negatively characterizes the victim group, such as through hate speech and
misinformation. As a result, most extant analysis has excluded other processes that scholarship on
genocide has also shown to be significant: practices aimed at constructing not the victims of genocide
but those who are supposed to support it. This paper therefore analyzes some of these practices as
they involved Facebook in Myanmar, offering new interpretations of publicly available evidence and
drawing on observations from work in Myanmar during 2012-15. It then concludes by discussing the
relevance of these initial findings for ongoing efforts to pursue restitution and accountability and
proposes concrete questions that could be taken up in these efforts as well as by scholars and
practitioners.

Why the hell do you think companies have any rights other than what politicians allow them to do?

And when pressed to define what "woke" actually means, they universally fail to come up with a definition. Even an "author" having written a book about it fails to be able to define woke.

Speaking of dinosaurs with tiny hands.

Prices of solar panels has fallen orders of magnitude since the 80s and 90s to the point that now solar is now in some cases the cheapest energy source. In a recent podcast episode (2025-08-26) of Why is this happening? the guest (an author of a book related to solar panels) mentioned that in Pakistan the official electricity production had dropped like 10-15% over a year, not because of lesser energy consumption but because people rather had bought and installed their own, independent solar panels.

When commenting "study proves X", how often do you fail to include references to said study?

• always
• often
• sometimes
• seldom
• never

Your comment was enlightening, but not in the way you intended I guess. So you only feel empathy towards people that you place in you in-group and are indifferent to people in your out-group.

Now, there are definitely limits on how many people anyone is able to personally relate to, so everyone has some kind of "out-group". However you have an unlimited supply of potential empathy and there is no reason to limit it to only your in-group.

Woke is a contemporary dogwhistle used by bigots to attempt to hide their hate. When pressed on how to define "woke", they all fail to give any meaningful definition. Example, an "expert" having written a book with a chapter about wokeness fails to define woke when asked about it in an interview.

So what about you dbialac, are you able to give a meaningful definition of "woke"? Despite me asking, I would appreciate even more if you spend some time on improving your life by looking into the links below rather than jumping right on writing an answer.

Life After Hate: Helping people exit a life of hate

What you wrote reminded me of Barnett Newman painting Who’s afraid of red, yellow, and blue which definitely is not my style, and younger me would most likely written off as more or less nonsense, but watching the video Who’s afraid of modern art: Vandalism, video games, and fascism I learned that the colours used are actually hard to reproduce and requite some skill I was unaware of.

Still not my style, but I can now appreciate that other people might have it as their.

Thank you for providing an explanation.
