Good, your attention is a commodity, don't let advertisers steal it. We've been assaulted with enough ads in public spaces already.

Yeah you're right, who likes no pollution, no noise, strong communities and third places to bond with people, kids having public spaces to play in their neighborhoods, green, sustainability, healthy, active people that don't sit in front of a wheel all day long... Who likes all that seriously?

There's AC in public transport.

Your privacy is of no concern to us, like you could claim you want more privacy, which you can achieve by commuting with a jet(people can stare at you through the car window) - that doesn't mean the world has to cater to your unreasonable demands.

The fact that there is a park in your neighborhood doesn't mean anything, since the public spaces are simply not enough. We don't have more green instead of this sea of tar, because some people like you don't care about either the environment or the alienation of the communities or the health implications of car centric cities.

The opposite of one trip every two weeks isn't everyday, it's once a week on a bike, I'm sure you can make this sacrifice since...yk I specifically explained how our world and lives are ruined from car centric cities. And if you are not willing to make this insurmountable sacrifice, you are just a lost cause and an enemy to green walkable vibrant cities and therefore to us.

You are not fucking crazy, you are fucking toxic to comment in this place to begin with.

For better or for worse, Reddit has a super valuable archive that has basically replaced Google search for me, it's insane how many times it has helped me solve small and big issues. I understand the logic, but it would still be a big blow for the internet if many people did that.

Or better yet - this helped me more because I couldn't get what you were saying until I saw it - is that you can think of either one of two faces that the cube can sit on. Before I explain which faces I am talking of, I have to note that a cube face can be described by its diagonal, which is what I have to do to explain this in words and the second one is that in a drawing of a cube there are six peripheral intersection points(three to the right and three to the left) and two inside points a right one and a left one. So these two faces the cube can sit on are:

The first is the face whose diagonal starts from the bottom left peripheral point and reaches the right inside point

Then the second face is the one that spans from the left bottom peripheral point until the right middle peripheral point.

This helps me change perspective instantly.

How does the US not have any strategic interest in propping up Israel? This is insane.
Israel is the biggest strategic ally of the US in the middle east, do you not know anything about the issue? They protect and fund Israel more than anyone in the world.

I think you should pay less attention to mainstream media which propped that issue up disproportionately. It wasn't as big of a deal as many made it out to be.

But regardless of that, I don't think one should be concerned about opinions of people and I certainly don't think it is an issue at all if young people hate the US. It has done some of the most fucked up things in the world since the start of the last century to say the least. This may be expressed in stupid ways like sympathising for Bin Laden, but the broader sentiment of hate towards the US isn't wrong.

"promising to give two different groups"? You mean the natives and the colonisers? Tf is this "meme"?
