The “free speech absolutist” at it again!

Yeah, let’s not hyperanalyze bike sustainability. If you are riding a bike for commuting, you are drastically more sustainable than if you chose to drive. There isn’t any strong reason to try to muddy the victory.

Soybeans are an excellent crop for increasing protein, and one we know well. Malnutrition is a huge issue in Afghanistan - cultural considerations are fundamentally a secondary issue to starving children.

And please, take some time to expand on what filth the US was teaching girls. Let me guess, anything non-religous that teaches them that they have more value beyong their sex and ability to produce children?

And please, describe how the Taliban has successfully reimplemented any liberal, STEM, or non-religous instruction.

I will have to downvote because of the misinformation on the eye of the needle claim. That is almost certainly false - there really isn’t any evidence of this and the theory seems to come from the middle ages.

Similarly, camel probably means camel, not cable (as a popular theory suggests).

Here is a video that discusses the theories.

Please edit to qualify the claim about the eye of the needle.

Yes, because the study design does not prove causation.

Yeah, this is something many climate advocates say - that it is better to keep the car you have - but I don’t think this is backed up by data at all. It’s very clear that that EVs are able to save more carbon emissions than in a fairly short period than you would save by not continuing to drive an ICE vehicle, with manufacturing included.

If we were going to have a simple rule, replacing all ICE vehicles today with EVs will be far better for the climate than keeping them.

Money. Donate. There isn’t a near term world where money won’t matter in giving you a voice, so you should use it.

I think you just redefined a marriage. The function of marriage legally is all those “legal affairs”.

That is really not true.

Meh, maybe 10% of a single generation at most know how to use computers. Technically savvy millenials vastly overestimate how technically savvy other millenials are.
