Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Yep. I'm not worried about the downvotes. Head in sand is right.

Lots of people here act like young, disenfranchised idealists who act like every comment is a litmus test if anyone shakes the narrative. "Oh you didn't say the right phrase, you aren't mad enough!" No, I'm addressing another part of the situation, not reading a loyalty list.

Yes it would be better to revolutionize our production methods, heavily shift to public transit, use green energy production, get lobbyists out of government.

But that all takes time. In the meantime, recognize you are the consumer, that you're consumption has impacts, and that all that shit was made for you to use is an important step on living a greener life.
