Just wanted to prove that political diversity ain't dead. Remember, don't downvote for disagreements.

It seems like the atmosphere is changing now but I've been saying this for years.

The language of privilege is backwards and counter productive.

Lessee... I suppose my hottest take is that no lives are sacred. I believe that human expansion into more 'wild' domains is a mistake and that national and state parks' availability should be limited (geographically - you may not venture into the Deep Parks). This probably borders on some vaguely eco-fascy beliefs, and I recognize human's inexorable curiousity and desire to explore, but you will never find me mourning a human victim of a wild animal.

We can disagree a bit about the sacredness of life but I think we agree about oreseving nature. Yet I think national parks are both a good and a practical necessity. If the general public can’t get a taste of wilderness they will not value it, and will not protest its demise. So it’s a balancing act— in a perfect world sure have some very large untouched reserves, but if you care about any wilderness surviving then national parks are a must imho.

The DNC is the primary obstacle to progress and no progress is possible between now and when they go the way of the Whigs because of the rigged duopoly system.

the anti-work movement has been a blight on communism

I feel like it has the wrong name. But it is a baby step for many toward anticapitalist ideals.

Work is good, and can be beneficial. Working a job you hate because if you don't you'd starve is awful and should be done away with.

I believe in the possibility of bigfoot being real.

Wanting less/more immigration are both perfectly valid positions.

Immigration can provide opportunities to a country but can also cause issues and it's undemocratic and dangerous to demonize either position on the issue.
