It’s nice to see them exchanging gifts despite the gift ban. Fire must be more symbolic than practical.

Someone should do the world a favor while he’s over there.

Actually it is. If there wasn’t religion, none of this would be happening. I’m sorry that you’re religious and you take offense to this, but that doesn’t change anything.

How did I miss the point that all religions are fucked up? Tell me the point.

Religion killing people? What?! Never.

I have to believe that is low.

Bet, 30 days and it’s corrupt.

Are you telling me to kill myself or other people?

Oh I think you despise quite a few people. Especially people downstream.

Killing all humans is better.

solar arrays make great habitats once the plants and animals figure it out.

Once they learn to adapt to humanity. Nice. 🤡

I hate all humans equally, sweetie.

Is the public furious?

Yes I see them destroying a mountain, and I agree that is better than fossil fuels.

So let’s talk about how this dam is going to destroy entire ecosystems for hundreds or thousands of miles.

This is how demand works. If the population of an area want a Starbucks, they get a Starbucks. I’ve lived in many areas that were cool until they became “cool,” if you catch my meaning. Prices went up and I had to leave. It’s tempting to blame the people who came in and were willing to spend money. But while trying to find the root cause of the problem, they quickly become… Not the problem.

I’d say few people go into a new area and think, gosh I want to make this different. They went there because they wanted to be there. If a Starbucks pops up, they aren’t exactly upset, but they probably could live without it.

The problem is the people who own these places. Those people aren’t the ones protesting. And if you want to think of it from a purely ownership standpoint, the people protesting have no right to complain what the people who own the land want to do with it.

I have no idea what the solution is beyond rent control and price caps. Those two things will keep costs down regardless of tourism, discouraging landowners from changing the area to suit the demand of tourism.

Additionally, preventing foreign companies from establishing their businesses in the region would preserve the local culture. However, as previously mentioned, it is the individuals who own this land—both in a literal and a political sense—who are facilitating this occurrence.

I’m mocking them for distracting people with solar while they keep destroy the planet anyway.

Yikes. They’re gonna need therapy.

Yawn. Someone is profiting on tourism. Use your brain and follow the money ffs.

Yes I agree.

I would like to not have to wait until the some point before we decide to be slightly more aggressive. I fear by that point it will too late, if it is not already
