World ending, everyone's gonna die!!" I guess they're some of the folks pushing for "degrowth". I had to block them, because I'm damn sick and tired of seeing nothing but bad news, all day, every day. I think we can all agree that the hype and gloom/doom everywhere is a problem. Find some common ground on an issue/debate, and work from there. If we do not quantify a problem/issue properly, then how are we supposed to handle/address it properly? Resources and $$ are finite/limited, and we know wasteful spending/graft are rife. You are not going act the best way if you are fired-up and we are fighting among ourselves! Emotional, knee-jerk reactions to problems/issues almost always end up counterproductive. Perhaps not at first, but the long-term, and the long-term is what counts. But it is a challenge for all of us to think more iong-term and in the abstract b/c we want solutions and things fixed now! Shortcoming and fallacies of human nature always are there causing their own problems. But realizing/understanding this as a base, make discussions/debates better IMHO.

Snowenoutthere, a college student, wrote eloquently about rejecting this type of nihilism. I don't know who you're arguing with here but you keep trotting this out, a bit like a strawman, which is a..you know what. Anyway there's a separate forum for this whole discussion and I'm probably about to get in trouble. Why don't you share your take on the science there (not the nihilism, we get that).

notvirga! Posted 24 minutes ago Share Posted 24 minutes ago Heckuva storm in Owings Mills. Might have been the strongest winds I’ve seen since moving here in ‘18. Heard there power outages in Owings Mills and Reisterstown and a tree fell on house in Reisterstown as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
