Hidden costs of Green Transition
"As world transitions away from fossil fuels, patterns of resource extraction and violence are intensifying globally amid skyrocketing demand for the โcritical mineralsโโincluding cobalt, lithium, manganese and copperโessential to renewable energy technologies. In particular, the EV market is generating unprecedented demand for nickel, valued for extending driving range. By 2030, global demand for nickel is projected to triple."

Some people just want to bend the truth or provide half truth, either to argue or to shape their own narrative, down play the reality, and add a sense of doubt in reality and those sharing the facts.
I have no time and no patience for such people. Same type of people who played games during COVID, when everyone around me was dropping like flies, implying it was all a big deal over nothing and that everybody was over exaggerating. ๐

When Mastodon or Bluesky get called an "echo chamber" it is hilarious to me, because yes, that is how this works. We don't have some corporate overlord algorithm dictating everything you see, so you are SUPPOSED to build up your own feed following the topics that specifically interest you and utilizing filters to fine tune them to be perfect for you. Why WOULDN'T you want that?
Okay, the fact that they are having a "No Tyrants" protest in London instead of "No Kings" is fucking hilarious.
No Kings, people. No Kings.

Just went upstairs, Jorge is sacked out in his bed - understandable.
Sean was in the crate?! I am guessing he sniffed out the treats Jorge may have missed. Or is just blocking it from being used on Jorge again.
He also might be a little mad at my brother for allowing me to take away Jorge like that today.

Violent anti-abortion activists -- there's a background there.
Republican billionaires are always in a constant search for issues that will bring allies to their scheme of moneyed bigotry.
Voting rights, civil rights, women's rights, gay rights, LGBTQ rights, seniors rights, immigrant rights.
All issues predicated on "some people matter, those others don't" & "some people deserve to have a life of leisure built on the backs of those who don't matter"

The anti-abortion movement was built on the white supremacist premise that women, especially black women, cannot be permitted to have agency or autonomy.
The economy was to be built on voiceless & choiceless women
