As with all of his crimes that would require someone to hold him accountable, so not really.

That is pretty much how the mechanics of human consciousness works. We also know we are going to die some day, and that it is most likely not going to be very pleasant leading up to it. But we still manage to block out that knowledge of finality in our daily life.

No, the current climate change situation is unparalleled in human history.

Yeah, I burned 100s of music cds as well about 20 years ago, and stored them in those books with slots. They weren’t stored in a car, but still about a quart of them doesn’t play anymore, and I am sure it won’t be long before none of them will. All my store bought cds of the same age or older still works fine though.

Homeburning is not a good physical media alternative.

And just imagine how much AI slop is being generated every day, and the output is increasing exponentially. It can be very long until the AI slop has completely drowned the human produced part of the internet. A lot of vested interests would be very happy with a situation where you can’t trust facts and information.

For anybody else in his position it would have been a pretty big deal. But because it is Trump and we know how he is with words (as in not at all), this is “nothing”.

And only peope who were as extremely stupid as himself would have ever realised that connection.

They know they can do that sort of shit because they hold the power. They can blatantly and unconvincingly lie, their followers will regurgitate those lies, but neither of them really believe them. They are just posturing and having fun with words, just like fascists always have done.

Never believe that [fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The [fascists] have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Yes, you are indeed a real spectacle.

No, that is not how words or logic or anything really works. But it is unsurprising that a fascist like you wouldn’t know that, considering you don’t really care about words.

It is funny how the video clearly disproves your lying claim.

That must be specific to whatever app you are using. It isn’t in the default ones.

You: Defending nazis.

You: Gets whiney when accused of being a nazi.

The thing is that nuclear energy could have been used to replace other things that uses oil energy instead. It could have lowered carbon emissions, instead it just adds to energy expense.

They would probably be alright if they had picked Trump as pope.

Where on Earth have you gotten that bizarre idea? It is in their interest to promote engagement, human or not, by any means necessary.

but I have a hard time believing there isn’t some sort of cost to pay for a magic pill that makes you skinny

There is a cost. It is called money, it is incredibly expensive, and they need to take it for life.

Because this generational strife nonsense is the most succesful distraction from the actual class war which is occurring. If they can get people in the same exploited situation to fight amongst themselves for any reason except their economic status (age, skin colour, gender, nationality etc.), then the oligarchs have succeeded a little bit with their propaganda efforts.
