While some college degrees are useful, I wasn’t addressing all of them specifically, nor are their specifics relevant to the argument. The argument is against sociology and gender studies.
If we don’t study the ways in which our society is failing people, how can we expect things to get better?
Our society is failing because we’re shifting a child’s dependence from their parents to the government. Adults too who are in desperate need of assistance no longer seek out their neighbors or local religious establishments, they instead depend on the government. Both of these aspects require excessive taxation and social goods to be either bolstered or built from the ground up.
Sociology doesn’t provide practical skills that directly translate into specific careers. The job market is very limited, with many graduates failing to find jobs related to their degree. The study of society and human behavior is subjective, theories and findings are influenced by the researcher’s perspective, making it difficult to establish definitive truths. These biases are often disconnected from real-world applications.
Almost all the same things can be said about gender studies, because it’s irrelevant to practical applications in the real world.
How do you know this?
Men don’t menstruate and cannot get pregnant. Women cannot produce sperm and don’t have prostate glands. Try all you might, ingesting what you shouldn’t, you’re still going to be bound by the chromosomes you were born with.
Lefties are all about “trust the science, bro” yet when it comes to basic biology, often they’d rather rewrite the literature to fit some asinine ideology. HRT isn’t gender affirming, it is gender contradicting.
Any time there is any legislation put to vote that would reduce our emission it gets shot down by conservatives.
You see emissions, we see livelihoods.
If you work in a field reliant upon the fossil fuels that are destroying our planet, then you should pull yourself up by your bootstraps and find a job that won’t kill the planet.
Simply suggesting that people switch jobs overlooks the economic realities faced by millions of individuals. Are you going to build the businesses that employ all the people who have no jobs? Probably just expect the government to do it.
Drive a car powered by oil drilled by Americans, or drive a car who’s resources were mined by child labor and other unethical work forces… The choice is yours.
it isn’t moral to kill the planet
Scientific consensus suggests reversing global warming is impossible. While some tactics might slow down the process, you’re just beating a dead horse. The planet will die eventually, with or without human intervention.
Telling coal and wood fired pizza shops in NYC to reduce their emissions isn’t going to do anything compared to the military, the over seas shipping industry, the private jets, etc. Beating a dead horse.
You think you’re helping, but you’re just making millions of lives more difficult, both the people you’re telling to get new jobs that don’t exist and the people you’re supporting overseas who have much less ethical employment practices.
During the pandemic, global emissions droped like a rock. It is absolutely in our capability to build a society in which we maintain our freedoms while getting rid of fossil fuels.
Not sure which freedoms you think you still have when you’re being told to not leave your house, not get close to people, cover your face to muffle your voice and expressions… But it feels like that just circles back to my original statement regarding chatting on the internet all day… Maybe you’re content with interacting with people over video and text chat. Maybe you like sitting at a computer all day doing fuck all. Most people don’t.
Gloomy clouds indicate upcoming rain, reducing the number of vehicles on the road improves air quality. Profound.
We have clean technologies that we can invest in within third world countries.
Assessment of a technology’s environmental impact should consider its entire life cycle, including the extraction of raw materials, manufacturing, operation, and disposal. Large-scale deployment of renewable energy projects lead to habitat destruction and harm to local ecosystems. Similarly, the increased demand for certain raw materials, such as lithium and cobalt for batteries contributes to environmental degradation and human rights issues.
No technology is “clean”, the sooner you face the facts the better off we’ll all be.
We absolutely can and should do so to avoid this disaster from getting worse and/or unrecoverable.
You absolutely should do the things that make you feel better about yourself and the impact you have on the world. You absolutely shouldn’t try to infringe on your neighbor by forcing them to follow you. Forcing me and mine through legislation to invest in your capital ventures through taxation is immoral theft.
