    Not necessarily. But refusing to do so, because you don't want children to be exposed to the idea of Homosexuality certainly is. Kind of like what Desantis did in Florida.
  2. Boges
    And you're not respect how that would make a student who is homosexual or has homosexual parents would feel. And children are not required to attend public schools. I'm sure a private religious school would have no problem embracing such bigotry.

    For reasons already cited. They certainly don't ignore the realities of Climate Change. I think you know the answer is to pivot to more renewable forms of technology, and not just bury one's head in the sand. Like with industrialization, the rich nations need to lead the way on this.
  4. Boges
    But opposing to display of such things certainly does. Ultimately the idea is that exposure the reality that homosexuality exists perverts youth is what's being spouted by those looking to remove anything Pride related.

    China is probably one of the few nations that's actually invested heavily in renewable production. EV adoption is quite high with them. Their increased emissions are a reflection of moving a largely rural society into a more developed one. A good question to ask is how do we have a world of up to 10 billion people where as few as possible are hopelessly impoverished without either destroying our climate or running out of Fossil fuels?
  6. Boges
    YES! Some may already have homosexual inclinations and other may have Gay parental figures. To pretend like Homosexuality doesn't exist is ignorance. Sure but banning elements of Pride does. == It's become divisive because because people won't accept that people can have different sexual preferences and that's OK.
  7. Boges
    No. I'm calling you a bigot for associating that with the ideals of Pride. What is the context of this image used?
  8. Boges
    It's such a childish sentiment. People in the developed world, looking at people in the developing world trying to rise above poverty and claiming that "If they can pollute, why can't we"! China pollutes so much because they account for 1/5th of the world's population and they account for a vast majority of the world's manufacturing of cheap crap. Mexico is gaining on them though, because demographic shifts suggest that Chinese people don't want to work for peanuts anymore.

    Oh but IG models promoting hetrosexuality, wearing almost nothing, is all good. Because that's how God intended it? How Shirtless Gym Bros showing off their Gains? The fact "you people" associate anything LBGT with sexually explicit things, shows your perversion not the perversion of the Pride movement. A Rainbow flag is a symbol of acceptance. Not a dogwhistle for pedophilia. Now the Catholic Church. . .

    They think promoting "Pride" is promoting deviant sexual behaviour and kids shouldn't be exposed to that. Completely ignoring the fact that they're basically telling Gay kids that something is wrong with them. The exact opposite of the Love they propose they get from Jesus.

    https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/2218558020001#:~:text=Ontario's York Catholic District School,to board meetings several times. Pride is nothing new. Pride Parades were popular in Canada in the 90's. The idea that promoting Gay Pride is grooming children for pedophiles is gross hatred. https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/target-controversy-far-right-lgbtq-1234743159/

    From Sham referendum from invaded land. If Ukraine takes it back is it Ukraine territory again?

    Way to show your alliance. The Donbas is not in Russia.

    "His" as in your man crush on Putin?

    Homophobia is seeing a massive resurgence in 2023.
  16. Boges
    And that would be. . . ? Raising wages to more reflect the recent inflation? No, that would be communism right?
  17. Boges
    So. . . we go back to near free loans to buy homes so people think they can afford homes that they can't? The goal was to cool the housing market off because of this and I think it has.

    The thing about Gambling is that betting on the likely outcomes produces paltry returns. This is why, most betting involves point spreads. It's not enough to predict a win, you have to predict how much a team will win by. It's all in the House's favour, but people actually think they're smart enough to beat the house.

    The amount of Sport Gambling that's inundating all forms of sports media is annoying and intrusive. Gambling is like the Lottery. A tax on the dumb and stupid. ?
  20. Boges
    It's kind of like plain advertising on Tobacco products. Don't glorify gambling.

    Again, I don't need to convince you. No one should be forced to get an EV at this stage, and no one is. But 300+ kms a charge on a tech that's only been around in any usable nature for what 5 years? That's pretty good IYAM. It'll get way better in the next 5. No, but if we're using Roadtrips as the main obstacle to EV adoption, it's pretty silly to say I won't accept all these benefits, because I may have to take an extra pee break on my annual road trip.
  22. Boges
    Then don't go on Roadtrips. Fly!

    I'm not going to address every point made in your diatribe. But this is exactly what's happening. The "moral" issue is the idea that we should stop relying on Dino Juice for global transportation. You seem attacked that governments are asking people to actually pay for pollution now. Well that's the only way we'll actually start to think about reducing pollution. And developing nations still amount for a fraction of the global pollution vs developed nations. Your next two vehicles can be ICE without giving much thought to an EV. But come mid-2030, I suspect much of the issues you bring up will be address. But the only way they'll be addressed is if we start investing in the shift today. Which is happening, despite the protest from people who want cheap gas, large vehicles and no consquences.

    It's weird how, we as a society, can justify wars in the middle-east for decades because of 911. The Trillions of dollars, and lives lost spent trying to make Arab nations more Western. The first decade of this century was dedicated to a War on Terror. The implications of Russia being allowed to Ukraine are much worse than allowing the Taliban to take back Afghanistan or allowing Iran to basically have outright influence in Iraq, which is what those wars wrought. Russia will not stop at Ukraine. Putin wants to rebuild the Soviet Union. If NATO has one purpose it's keeping Russia from expanding West in Europe. If funding Ukraine, does that. So be it. The US spends more on Defense than all other allies combined, if helping another democracy defend itself against a tyrant, what good is all that money spent for?

    So you're going to drive 400 kms and not want to take a pee break or get food? Does the 45 extra minutes you may have to wait for a charge get helped by the fact you're paying a fraction for the transportation costs. And the fact that that for the vast majority of the time you're using the EV you don't even really have to think about refuelling all that much, as it's done overnight when Hydro rates are at the lowest. You can't speak out of both sides of your ass. You can't complain about the upfront cost of EVs and not concede that they save a lot of money throughout the life of your car. The only service costs I've had on my EV in the last year plus is replacing the cabin air filter and swapping out Winter Tires.
