Second this, one can’t just say something like this and not give a source.

There is no concept of hell in the old testament. That’s something the new Testament added on.

I got you bro.

NSFW, in case that wasn’t obvious.

You… You think a battery is a magic physics defying substance?

I mean, I don’t see capitalism beeing a way to solve the climate crisis and do belive that degrowth is going to happen (by design or desaster), but the success of renewable energy is very much a capitalism success story.

That video shows like 70 % to 80 % of the people beeing white. How is are you calling this fake news and then post a link that literally proves the point of the article??

but considering how many people get a large soda in the morning and sip on it all day,

I am European and this sentence broke something in my soul.

What is this, lost earth?

Reading random studies

I searched for related studies and found this one relevant. That is not random.

you find on news sites

It’s from a scientific journal tough, not a new site?

that are outside your area of expertise

While true, this is not a study about biology or medicine. It’s not hard to understand for lay people.

an easy way to be led to believe something based only on parts of the truth.

That’s why you read more then one study. You know, like I specifically called out that this one links to a lot of related work?

In this case, as in many, we have to rein in our judgments for what the study indicates

It indicates that republicans are more likley to belive fake news.

Just because it says it found A doesn’t mean B is true.

Yes, but nobody did that here? I’m confused what you are getting at.

It doesn’t answer your question completely, but apparently conservatives are more likley to belive fake news.

Here is a quote from a study with a lot of links to related works.

In particular, Grinberg, Joseph, Friedland, Swire-Thompson, and Lazer [[42], p. 374] found that “individuals most likely to engage with fake news sources were conservative leaning.” Indeed, political bias can be a more important predictor of fake news believability than conspiracy mentality [43] despite conspirational predispositions playing a key role in motivated reasoning [44]. Perhaps because of this, an important body of research has examined whether conservatism influences fake news believability [45,46]. Tellingly, Robertson, Mourão, and Thorson [47] found that in the US liberal news consumers were more aware and amenable to fact-checking sites, whereas conservatives saw them as less positive as well as less useful to them, which might be why conservative SM users are more likely to confuse bots with humans, while liberal SM users tend to confuse humans with bots [48]. In particular, those who may arguably belong to the loud, populist and extremist minority wherein “1% of individuals accounted for 80% of fake news source exposures, and 0.1% accounted for nearly 80% of fake news sources shared” ([42], p. 374).

There is very little evidence for the idea of persistence hunting ever beeing a thing.

Despite the idea’s foothold in popular culture, however, there is no hard evidence that ancient humans were persistence hunters, much less that persistence hunting shaped evolutionary traits. In fact, what evidence there is doesn’t support the notion that early humans acquired their meaty meals through feats of running endurance; it flatly contradicts it.

Streng genommen ist eine Ampel ohne gelb besser statt eine Ampel die mal gelb wird und mal nicht und wenn sie gelb wird nach Laune entscheidet, wie lange. Das ist dann nämlich eine scheiß Ampel.

Oder halt wie beim Bürgergeld handhaben. Was man selbst oder ein Familienmitglied verdient wird von der Diät abgezogen :-)

Fair.

82 % Der Deutschen sind der Meinung, dass Klima nicht das Wichtigste oder Zweitwichtigste Thema ist.

Besser?

Ich war ziemlich schockiert, als ich das gestern gelesen habe, weil es mir vor Augen geführt hat, wie sehr ich in einer Bubble lebe. In meinem Umfeld ist das Thema Klima sehr präsent. Anscheinend nur dort.

Ich beschäftige mich jetzt seit mindestens drei Jahren intensiv mit dem Thema Klimawandel (als Laie), höre Podcasts, lese Berichte und Orginalstudien, etc. und halte die Klimakrise für das wichtigste Thema der Menschheit. Mit Abstand. Weil so viel davon abhängt, wie gut oder schlecht wir damit umgehen.

Und dann sieht man sowas… 82 % der Bevölkerung halten das Thema nicht für relevant. Und in ganz Europa werden die Menschen, die dagegen protestieren und versuche, ein Bewusstsein zu schaffen, kriminalisiert und mit Terroristen gleichgesetzt, drakonisch bestraft (siehe z.B. GB, wo zwei friedliche Aktivisten zu je drei Jahren verurteilt wurden) und in gesellschaftlichen Diskurs egal ob durch Medien oder Politik nur als Störenfriede gelabelt.

Ich fange langsam an jegliche Hoffnung zu verlieren. Meine Kinder werden in einer von rechten Arschlöchern regierten und von Hitze, Dürre, Wasserknappheit und Multikrisen zerrissenen Welt aufwachsen und es macht mich bitter und traurig das wir da sehenden Auges reinrennen.

Musste raus. Sry fürs rumgedoome.
