Don’t you need to get the bullet out before patching them up? I don’t remember ever seeing a movie where it’s implied that digging the bullet out is sufficient, only that it’s a necessary step.

No we’re not

Oh the pride and joy I will experience when I finally get to be champion in the “Pretty shit” skill level running competition! Especially if I manage to defeat my handicapped neighbor, that prick keeps boasting about how he’s been training hard every day for the past 10 years! I’m not sure you understand what competitive sports are about …

He obviously meant to say how do you measure that it’s exactly 1m, even when still in a straight line. Exactly being the key word here.

We could be recycling everything but we’re not, and we’re not going to anytime soon, this would be far more complex than feeding everyone. I’m not advocating for anything, please don’t try to put words in my mouth. We’d have less trouble if there happened to be less of us, that’s it. I never said we should forcibly reduce our population, that’s ridiculous. I’m just tired of seeing this same senseless argument that everything is fine with the population because we could potentially feed everyone.

Just because it’s going to plateau and decrease, doesn’t necessarily mean that we aren’t already above where we should ideally be. Being potentially able to feed everyone is not the only criteria. We are overconsuming and this is in proportion to the world population. Even though it’s not evenly spread and everyone doesn’t consume the same, at the end of the day the least people there are the least we consume.
