  • So the reason this is controversial is that the Washington post almost always does and when the editors room said, "we want to endorse Harris," Jeff Bezos went, "we don't endorse candidates starting now."

  • What product have you purchased based on advertisment from modern podcasts and youtube channels that have worked out well?
  • I like gamersupps but I'm not a vegan, and don't use it for the health benefits. It's just a cheaper option than a traditional energy drink and there are several good flavors. I think it's a decent product if you're in that market, but I've only had to reach out to customer support to get an item swapped on an order. They can also take a while to ship depending on their stock.

  • Antinatalism Rule
  • I wouldn't. Really all post industrial countries need to do is stop trying to directly insentivize having kids and maybe provide access to free/low cost contraceptives. I think that's a lot easier than having socialism implemented in enough countries for it to matter.

  • Antinatalism Rule
  • Socialism would no doubt increase the planets carrying capacity for humans, but not make it limitless. It is also nowhere near close to being implemented so I am assessing the world that we have, not the one I'd like it to be. Also, even if we did away with capitalism tomorrow we'd probably still need to discuss reasonable population growth and come up with a reasonable estimate for our planet's carrying capacity which could be weighed against quality of life, human happiness, etc as we transition our economy away from late stage capitalism.

  • Antinatalism Rule
  • I'd have to disagree from the angle that, you cannot philoshpy your way out of ecology. If you actually look at a population graph for any species which experiences a massive spike in birthrates, and what comes for them afterwards, you would probably come to a conclusion that the rate at which we've been producing kids is very unsustainable, and while we probably shouldn't tell people not to have kids completely we should probably begin to consider how to transition towards more sustainable population numbers. A given ecosystem can only sustain so much of one species before it begins to break down. Our Eco system is the entire world and it is very much breaking down as we hit record temperatures year after year. There were lights at ends of tunnels during every war as they've always like, ended with a winning side that could rebuild/regrow, and even ecological collapses have been recovered from by humans but we're not going to get to be the humans that recover, and it doesn't look like our kids will be either. So, if we want to have kinda okay lives we should maybe consider minimizing the impact from what is about to happen, and also not bringing children into a world that has pretty much no chance of being better for them than it was for us.
