So? "Housecleaning" isn't part of USCYBERCOM, obviously, it belongs to several arms of the (military) IC and is even partly sourced out to private contractors. Obviously, it's not …

You might want to actually read the article, then you would see how your descriptions don't actually apply. Part of the shitty work conditions (that remarkably persist despite incr…

Yet you fail completely at rationally arguing your "thoughts".

The US intelligence community engaging in murdering suspected "weak links" in order to "send a message", "clean the house" etc. is a regularly recurring phenomenon. The fiction, th…

You supplant your lack of knowledge in statistics with unfounded assumptions and overt bias. The relevant metric here is number of deaths per size of the specified group and per ti…

Probably, more importantly: it's a lie.

That's gross disinformation and patently untrue.

It's a systemic issue, not due to one man. What gets overlooked here is the US IC itself being a probable cause: the habit of "housecleaning" by killing individuals suspected to be…

You're right about that, but that's a corner too much to turn for most people.

? That's total nonsense. Positions of power attract people who want to use that power for their own gain. They abuse it regularly, whether it's politics, enterprises or even charit…

The public narrative around conspiracy theories is baffling for sure: what rational basis is there for assuming them wrong? Often none. Incentive and ability are what should be loo…

That propaganda trick isn't "one guy repeats stuff a thousand times" and works on a substantial subset of the population. Human society isn't restricted to "focusing on one thing o…

You're conceptually wrong about "the theory" and factually about the majority of fires. The fundamental connection increase of CO2 => increase in mean temperature => increase in fr…

You're very wrong. The propaganda practice of incessant repetition being effective even in face of blatantly obvious contradicting facts is well established. The reason climate cat…

Well, actually, you're exemplifying mine. Being trapped in an Overton window selected for you by those invested in upholding the status quo is what leads to your emotional stress. …

There is no dichotomy between preparing for the inevitable and preventing the preventable. Painting the actions of people on the other side of the planet as "out of anybody's contr…

What is indicative of escalating climate catastrophe is indeed the intensity and frequency of those firestorms, not any lack of precedent for a cloud shape. But the really salient …

A rational approach to existential threats is indeed good advice, but to surrender in the face of complexity is not. The human induced climate catastrophe is due to a systemic fail…

The human induced climate catastrophe has reached unprecedented levels because of humanity's continued failure to correctly integrate that reality into their decisions and the resu…

People in the climate movement are rarely professional PR folks. Weaponizing their personal faults against the objective subject matter they talk about is disingenuous anyway? You …

It maybe would, if people were to read it in the first place. But they don't: they go to the comments here first and try to get the gist of reactions, in order to save themselves t…

Only, while such work is necessary it's also insufficient . You point at the actual problem yourself: political obstruction and funding going to the opposite. The relevant issues h…
