I still think the numbers will be skewed heavily by those that travel internationally 0 times per year, but I think your math is accurate from what I can tell. Essentially, less air travel is good if you regularly travel, otherwise not so much.
How’s the math turn out if people use alternate means of travel? Is traveling by boat still a thing?
Got any examples of Chinese propaganda influencing americans?
Changing your diet is more impactful than stopping international travel.
Do you mean jokingly or legitimately? I dont think it would be even 1 out of 100 that legitimately is contending with homicidal fantasies when stuck in traffic before school or work.
Born into millions in the mid 1900s is what I would call born into wealth.
Yeah but then ifixit gets the money instead, and amazon gets nothing. I want to pay ifixit for their stuff, not amazon. Amazon didnt do anything to deserve money from that purchase.
There are a lot of vendors who only sell through amazon though. That seems more like they are explicitly saying they prefer the amazon shop but I could be interpreting that wrong.
Its just not a business I would recommend giving your money too, but its your choice.
Oh that makes sense, fair enough. I didnt know amazon did this but I stopped using them a while ago so haven’t kept up.
I think its becoming more and more common knowledge that amazon isn’t cheap anymore.
Horizon zero dawn did it better
Its not just power, its ego and success. If McDonalds started paying 30$ an hour it would suddenly be a job that signaled success, despite nothing changing about the job duties.
Thats what’s happening here, elon is rich so he must be smart, and now people are jealous and emulate him. The OP is right though, money or not he’s an idiot.
Quite a lot of americans equate money with success and ability. Elon musk must be the smartest guy because dumb people dont make money like that.
I think its reverse engineering though, americans see his worth, and work backwards claiming all his choices are genius and well thought out.
He’s about as smart as trump is a successful businessman.
Why would you order from amazon instead of directly from ifixit?
Okay well at its peak 60% of americans supported BLM while right now 70% of americans support climate change science.
So what’s your next bullshit reason youll hedge this opinion on?
Edit: this climate protest was in Britain, where support for climate change science is higher.
They are protesting climate change caused by oil use by blocking a bunch of people burning oil in their cars. Sounds like the group of people that need to hear the message no? Those protestors and you are the same, stop putting them into some sort of “unreasonable person” group.
thats sort of similar to the Exxon Valdez spill and the Alaskan fisherman blockading their waters. It sort of went the same, the fisherman got a good deal, but then a few years later another judge changed the deal to fuck over the fisherman.
And you think its normal to wish you could murder people without consequence?
You aren’t going to join their side either way. You just care about getting to work on time. You only care about the climate as much as it affects your day to day life, so I wouldnt go around telling people I care about the climate if I was you.
Go ahead and list those dire consequences, I’ll wait.
And late for school? You are fucking kidding right? What would you want if someone stole your bike, the death penalty? You sound like a child.
You are assuming the majority of people lie in interviews. That is a strategy, and one my parents actually recommended, but I dont think its the most effective.
