Individual stations for solar are dandy. They make perfect sense.
It is these mass solar and wind farms that are fucked, especially with incidents like these.
I get the frustration—an informed electorate is important. But throughout history, voting tests have been used to suppress certain groups, so setting fair criteria is a challenge.
He does have a point, tbf.
I used to joke that there should be a test before you can vote, I am getting increasingly serious about that as I get older.
And I don’t mean an intelligence test but just some basic indication that you know who you’re voting for and what they stand for would be nice.
Ooh...What happened to the demands for "researching and verifying!?!?!" You know, something so simple as searching the very forum threads in which you are posting!?!?!QuoteHe also lies again when he claims I haven't bothered to see the ISS, when I am on written record in this forum as having done so.Do you know what the word "if" means?
I don't know what you have or haven't done, I can't remember every post you make.
OK, so you've seen it. Great, so you acknowledge it's there. Why are you still a flat earther then?

Once again, AATW offers the real existence of a terrestrial-based land marsupial as a comparative thought experiment to the visual land-based sightings of the ISS as equivalent in form.The thought experiment wasn't about whether kangaroos exist or not, or whether the ISS does.

This is probably, of the 80,000 people there, only 2,000 entered and of those, only 1200 were convicted.Quote from: honkUh huh. So these harmless tourists just happened to be in Washington. They just happened to be near the Capitol. They just happened to be devoted Trump fans, like everyone else who had entered the Capitol. This just happened to be on the day that Congress was set to certify Trump's loss to Biden, the same day that Trump himself had focused on and asked his supporters to be in Washington for. This just happened to be directly following a speech from Trump in which he urged his supporters to march on the Capitol to protest Congress certifying his loss.
Correct. Trump told them to march peacefully, and that is what the majority of them did. It is a minority of people who acted with violence.
In this video from Daily Caller titled "Trump Supporters Stop Two Men From Smashing Windows At The Capitol" we see someone trying to break a window and people in the crowd screaming to "Get him out of here" and "We don't break s***". The man was pulled away. At the 36 second mark we see another man to break the window, and he was also pulled away, with the crowd screaming "Stop!" and "Whoever is breaking s*** is not with us" and "F*** Antifa" and "You don't have the right to use violence".Quote from: honkYou would have to be extremely gullible to buy this story. But for the sake of argument, fine, let's accept that some of these protesters were hapless bystanders. You're still arguing from the perspective of trying to prove exceptions to the rule, rather than trying to overturn the principal facts of what we all saw that day.
It's not the exception to the rule, it is the rule. Like in the video above, in most of the videos it's only a few people doing something bad, while the vast majority are innocent bystanders. They are individuals who may disagree with the actions observed, hence the verbal disapproval.
