Woosh .... that's a strawman

It's not the point of the post, they're using hitler as an allegory to explain the point, not comparing the two.

While even GenX had its fair share of these, the one thing I have seen in younger generations is an explosive increase in “Beta Orbiters”.

Same here, however for me that's not a critique or criticism (I'm older Gen X) just an observation of a change in behaviour.

Like the astonishing "rise" in trans people. Once again, not a critisism, just an observation.

These young men need to learn how to shut metaphorical doors and ignore the women who have no interest in reciprocating and who will only string them along as “useful dancing monkeys”.

But it's not just an m/f thing. I see the same thing with grifter men doing the same thing. I assume it's some sort of peer thing with the ability of social media allowing easier contact?

That said it's not a lot different to religion, so perhaps a thing in most humans ?

they turn to their churches because their churches promise to help them and accept them

Which just doubles down on the stupid. There is a differnce between ignorance and deliberate ignorance. There is no excuse for deliberate ignorance in the developed world. They can read Al Jazeera (picks random other news source) easily for example.

Also seems odd to invoke Ardent, her being a refugee immigrant .

Safe underground carbon storage would only reduce warming by 0.7°C, analysis finds (phys.org)
 

cross-posted from: https://slrpnk.net/post/27033031

For the first time, a study maps safe areas that can practically be used for underground carbon storage, and estimates that using them all would only cut warming by 0.7°C. The result is almost ten times lower than previous estimates of around 6°C,

So much for CCS.

Cities face double trouble: Extreme heat and air pollution mean increasing compound weather events (phys.org)

U.S. cities are facing a growing threat that goes beyond hot weather or hazy air. New research from the University of Oklahoma reveals that "compound events"—periods when heat wave conditions coincide with high air pollution levels—are becoming more frequent and intense in urban areas across the United States.

Half a century ago, the Great Barrier Reef was to be drilled for oil. It was saved – for a time (theconversation.com)
 

Interesting history (recent) of "saving" the GBR. The anecdote about Unions halting the exploration for oil and gas back in the day.

The puch is in the last two paragraphs.

Unfortunately, “saving” the reef doesn’t just have to be done once. All coral reefs face human threats: fishing, coastal development and declining water quality. But these pale compared to the big one – climate change. As intense marine heatwaves multiply, coral bleaches over large areas and can die.

In the 1960s, conservationists fought hard to stop oil and gas on the reef. Their campaign eventually succeeded. But the reef couldn’t escape the damage done by the oil and gas extracted and burned everywhere else. Saving the reef is going to be even harder this time round.
