  1. Re:Is the implication that fresh water is bad? on Scientists Identify Another Source of Dangerous Greenhouse Gases: Reservoirs (popsci.com) · · Score: 1, Troll

    FFS the planet is NOT going to die, there's nothing to 'save' it from. Evidence abounds proving there's been *huge* climate changes in the past prior to mankind doing jack shit like farming, storing water or cooking our meals the Earth has continued to live on and support life and will continue to do so despite a single degree shift in global temperatures. Animals, insects and plants will adjust and continue on like they have through greater changes the last several *Billion* years.

    You need to be reminded that we are also indigenous to the planet and have every right to live on it just like every creature you mentioned.

    If you feel like mankind must be removed from the planet then please prove the conviction of your position by starting with yourself.

    I'm seeing some doctors claim that vaccines cause children to be more susceptible to diseases later in life. Does anyone have background information about this?

    This has long been known. The Vaccines provide an artificial immunity that is temporary. As adults you still require booster shots.

    I was vaccinated as a child, yet got Chicken Pox from my Girlfriend that was caring for kids with it. I wish fervently I had gotten the natural immunity when I was a child. "Childhood Diseases" are much, much worse on adults. I wanted to die. This is likely how it spread in Disneyland. Adults that failed to realize their vaccine was a false hope, and that if you don't get the immunity naturally in your younger more robust years you will be forever vulnerable as an adult.

    The real threat in the 1800's and prior was lack of sanitation and hygiene that caused secondary infections. That problem has been solved.

    Mod up. All it takes is allegations of rape or racism or the latest ism of the day.

    In once cit-able case a woman was at a pool party that was crashed by black teens. They found her on Facebook, and even though she was only there, and had no part in any racist activity she was identifiable. They found her employer, made false allegations and she lost her job. That's SJWs these days. I did a little tracing of my own and found groups dedicated to destroying people's lives through FB.

    You act like people shouldn't be able to point out what they see as immoral behavior unless it's mandated by the your government,

    That's fine. Everyone can point out what they think is wrong all day, then draft laws and vote on it, with measures for enforcement.

    SJWs rarely work that way, opting to mete out their own version of justice by harassing and finding ways to ruin the victims lives by getting them fired, evicted, etc.

    social justice has become an entirely bad thing

    Any 'Justice' that denies the legal system it's due process is an absolute aberrant evil that must be destroyed at every opportunity. We send soldiers to other countries to kill powerful SJWs that hold the reigns of a regime that squashes dissenting opinions. You should read "Mein Kampf". It's the SJW to Dictator roadmap.

    and people need to frequently push back on hate.

    Damn right we do. Which is all SJW's spew. If they don't get their way they throw giant child tantrums.

    Internet hate has been growing for a long time now

    That's a mixed bag there. There's anger growing at the people that have appointed themselves the 'champions' of self appointed arbiters of orthodox intolerance that themselves oppress the majority. Then there's the hate SJWs themselves level at anyone that doesn't bow to their will.

    'Justice' should be dealt with by the court systems according to the laws elected by the majority. Not meted out by a minority population with no concern for the anything but their own perverted sense of right and wrong.
