  • To some degree, fission also, though it has a few other problems like safety and security concerns around nuclear materials, locations of fuels and whether they are in friendly nations, other things the fuels can be used for and all the politics that goes with that, etc.

    But we need more than just energy. At some point, regardless of our energy, we are going to destroy Earth’s ecosystems using up other resources, using this energy to mine unsustainably, etc. More energy just means we kill ourselves faster. We should not be looking for more or cleaner energy with which to kill ourselves with, we should be looking to continuity of our species and that requires living sustainably within the bounds of our environment.


  • I did for like two minutes, maybe I didn’t find the thing you’re talking about. It doesn’t matter, the fact that bad shit has happened under or even due to Biden doesn’t mean Trump isn’t far more dangerous. It’s a matter of degree (like would you rather be shot in the head or kicked in the nuts, they’re both bad, not equivalent), there is no option for president that is without major concern.

    I’m a trans (and Mexican) person, my choice is this:

    –> Keep in mind, they both support genocide in Palestine, they both will disappear people at protests, climate change will be fixed under neither of them

    Trump: Has made it clear retribution is a major theme of his next presidency should he win. His base hates me with a fiery passion and would put me in an oven without a second of thought needed. If Trump wins, the likelihood that I can retain the right to housing and employment to support myself, and not get disappeared for being who I am is virtually nil.

    Biden: Has maintained and even expanded rights for LGBT people. If Biden wins, there is no direct threat to my job, housing, or life. If Biden wins, I can continue taking care of my kitties, be there for my family, work to help others, I can’t help anyone or be there for anyone if I’m forced into prostitution to survive, dead, incarcerated.
