I fucking knew that shit was a color revolution. God dammit

Thats the thing though, those rich fucks usually run the IRS or practically own the people who do

Idk how thats what you got from this post. I don’t believe billionaires paying their taxes will solve all of our problems of thats what you are getting at

Its fucked up that it is normalized to kick your kid out in the west, no one deserves to go through this and I cannot imagine being that heartless

It takes massive organization

Yes I know, I meant that there could be a dedicated team for this. Yk, people paid by the state to tend to the gardens. If it was a serious problem you could also just use less productive strains of these plants. You could also just compost the excess. Greater endeavors have succeeded and you cant say food production and beauty is not worthwhile. I’m not suggesting we just put a bunch of fruit trees everywhere and expect the public to autonomously maintain them lol.

Goddammit you got my hopes up

I am not under the illusion that Harris is just imperfect. I think she is horrible and at best marginally less terrible than Trump

Do you genuinely see Harris as good?

You would just have people tend to the gardens no?

Short hair bisexual women and their tall long haired skinny boyfriends is also a trend I have noticed

I was gonna make a joke like “I hope she’s ok” but I worried it might be taken the wrong way. Glad I wasn’t the only one to think this

Yeah that’s fair

Well you see, the neighbors on the right were a people without a land and once their neighbor leaves they will have found a land without a people

This was not the intention. I just thought it was a funny image

You mean other than the abuse of animals for human pleasure?

I don’t think cloning as a process is morally wrong but I don’t know all that much about it. I’m more concerned with the reasons we clone animals than with the process of cloning

Does this not count as a meme?

They actually never buried their statues. The ones you see in the dirt were the ones that broke during transportation and never made it to the coast to be placed on a pedestal.

The theory that cutting down trees caused ecological collapse is a myth spread by colonizers. The people of Rapa Nui were thriving and the large trees had likely been gone for centuries due to rat infestations brought by the islanders. You’d think this would collapse their ecology but the Rapa Nui people were ingenuitive. Upon noticing the increased erosion and saltiness in their soil from the sea spray they began planting walled gardens and using a technique called rock mulching that actually improved the soil quality. We actually find that the ruins they left behind are still doing their job to improve the soil with even 3 times as many minerals inside the ruins as opposed to outside them.

When the first europeans stumpled upon this island they originally thought it was a desert from a distance but upon arriving found it to be a bustling land of plenty. There was plenty of food and activity. The skeletons we have found actually showed a more nutritious diet than europeans at the time. I should also address the myth of civil war. There is no evidence of this. There are many obsidian knives but they are often found near gardens. There are no fortresses or watch towers or walls like on Rapa Iti which did experience a period of severe warfare. Its likely these people never saw battle. They even had dangerous competitive traditions that may have pacified the more warlike men’s desire for glory.

Its actually suggested by the evidence that their population never did collapse before european arrival. After the dutch arrived in the 1700s disease spread quickly and devastated their population. When the spanish arrive some 48 years later and spread a new batch of disease their population had only just barely recovered. 4 years later there were only a few hundred left and all their statues had been toppled by them. I think their faith in the protection of their ancestors was shattered at this point. They began to great foreigners with weapons

Fair point, I can see how this does not add to the conversation. Sometimes I forget I am not legitimately supposed to answer with a negative.
