Reply to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wonders whether Americans should stop having children in the face of climate change by ziq
I can really recommend the book Too Many People? by Ian Angus and Simon Butler if you're interested in learning more about "overpopulation" and its relation to the environmental crisis.

Why? IMO it's better the rich spend their money on an electric car than a polluting, climate-killing, gas-guzzling fossil-fuel car.

Yes, most of the time. It usually costs about the same as non-organic produce.

We talked about how important it is to connect with her son, not directly so much about the alt-right politics and debate them, but go deep underneath to what the pain, confusion and anger is that is in his heart.
Wait, so he didn't just called the son a fucking Melt, blocked the mom and moved on? Crazy!
so many young white men are being spoken directly to by the alt-right, being given a narrative that places that in the world, gives meaning to their lives, and enemies all around them to blame for their pain and anger.
Yeah, the "alt-right" is spreading their message and connecting with ordinary people everywhere, on every platform, these days. And the left is really nowhere to be seen. It's a sad development.

The Soviets did the same thing. Really, mankind has given zero thoughts to the environment throughout history.

Mastodon seems fresh and modern! But all these different instances makes it feel overwhelming. How do I know I'll join the "right" instance? What happens if my instance gets taken down? Can my friends join my instance or could they suddenly close registrations for my instance?

Thanks for the reply! I actually already knew about Gnu social as I've been using Quitter (a twitter replacement) for some time (tbh I've mostly been lurking there) which is built around that platform.
What about more forum-like websites?
I'm asking because I want to join and interact with more like-minded people, but also for inspiration as I am working on creating an online community for leftists myself.

but you can easily disable the VPN. Opera also has a built-in ad-blocker which works great and also sets it apart from the other browsers in that regard.

I try to stay as far away from Chrome (and Google products in general) as much as possible. I primarily use Firefox, but Opera is a good browser that I use occasionally when coding. To be honest, Firefox is a bit slow at the moment but it's getting faster and better for every new update.

Hi! I am new here and this is my first comment, I actually found this site via a link from reddit ;)
I am looking to move away from reddit, facebook and all the other corporate social media sites. But what kind of alternative sites (besides raddle) actually exist for leftists of all different flavours?

There are a few, like Redly, but imho this site is one of the better ones.
