The report this article is based on is actually called “On Thin Ice: Disproportionate Responses to Climate Change Protesters in Democratic Countries”

The title of the article is a bit misleading including the term “rich countries”, especially as that term is not used once in the article.

In my mind measuring the level of democracy is harder than the wealth of a nation.

I’m proud of Southampton! Only 10 shitheads, and hundreds of anti-racists. Good showing everyone

How common is it to have a laptop with 2 batteries?

Again, thank you!

I dunno, seems pretty seems pretty complex to me. I’m sure the democratically elected bigwigs in charge know a thing or two about running industries properly. There must be some other reason that countries with underdeveloped solar industries are falling behind…if only we could figure it out!

After dipping my toes into Mastodon I had naively assumed that I understood it well enough. After reading this article it is clear that I was barely even scratching the surface.

Thanks for the article!
