Since you don't dispute anything he said, you have agreed with it. You have said, clearly and unambiguously, that you agree with it, even though you don't like it.

Perhaps a professional in the mental health industry could help you with your self hatred.

On the other hand, IIRC, suicide is legal in Oregon now.

Irrelevant to this case. It's not an issue of science, it's an issue of law.

The basis of the lawsuit is that there was no warning on the label that it might cause cancer. Federal law requires the label to be reviewed and approved by the EPA, which is was. Monsanto can't change it from the approved format. Under federal law, they have no liability for issues with the label. This lawsuit, and thousands of others, are in state courts, which in many cases, are based on liability laws that can only be obeyed by violating federal law.

SCOTUS gets to decide if state law can override federal law (and the odds of the state winning on that, especially with the current justices, are slim).

When mythbusters debunks something, they usually debunk it in a single scenario.

Mythbusters also needed a production assistant to help them spell "scientific method." They weren't scientists, they were entertainers (and damned good ones). They occasionally did some very good work, but not when it came to real science with double blind testing.

With current technology and economic reality, it will take generations to wean the west off of fossil fuels. This conference isn't willing to wait generations, they (claim they) want it now.

Technology will improve, the availability of the various rare earths and other resources necessary to built out the infrastructure will as well, but not quickly (and to even speed it up, we're talking strip mining mountaintops, which these moonbats will also object to).

Indeed. And they won't be any time soon, because the biggest consumers are countries with the highest standards of living, and the single most important factor in standard of living is per capita energy usage. The only way to cut emissions using current technology and economic reality is to cut energy usage, and that's not happening in those countries.

Right, but presumably most of Meta's employees have skill sets that would let them acquire all three at another (less awful) company.

The number of available jobs at less awful companies is probably orders of magnitude lower than the number of employees who would like to leave Meta. Especially considering that the turnover at such companies is most certainly a lot lower.

BBC tends to be unbaised when they report on American news because they don't care about D and R.
 

I don't re recall them ever editing any speeches by Democrats to make it look like they were inciting riots when, in fact, they were doing the exact opposite.

They've admitted their bias. Hallucinate all you want, there's no question whatsoever about it.
