Awesome, this means that the exploitation of the 3rd world will stop, right? Right?
Well shit. I'm gonna recommit to making a million dollars by lunch tomorrow. Fuck all that'll do, but why not.
Did they fly with their private jets there too, so they can make new important promises that they will DEFINITELY fulfill?
As long as conservatives exist, they will continue to do the bidding of their coporate overlords, making climate goals completely impossible to achieve.
If you aren't fighting conservatism, you aren't fighting climate change.
Capitalism. You mean capitalism. Biden is still subsidizing oil and endorsing the construction of new wells. Voting blue won't save you.
Biden is a neo-liberal. Neo-liberals are conservatives. They are better dressed and more intelligent, but they are conservatives by all international measures.
We need progressives in the Democrat party. People are starting to see that, but it appears it's a bit late for that now. I honestly do not see a peaceful solution to the conservative infestation.
Trivial pursuit crew is getting serious this year.
500 billion a year is still less then the us military budget.
War is still more important then collective survival.
That means they expect civilization to last until 2030. Whats the over under on that?
If you leave it to the last minute it will only take a minute
This is like me trying to stop smoking.
I make a plan for the week, get to Thursday and I'm right back on it, telling myself that NEXT week will be the week.
Bla bla bla
...but THIS TIME it will work!
They mean save certain kinds of people
We are so fucked.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
