Look up "fuck white people" (or the variations, "fuck wypipo" and "fuck yt people") on Twitter and tell me how there isn't an inordinate amount of discrimination against whites, which is totally socially acceptable, by the way. Yet if you were to post "fuck black people" or "fuck [insert nonwhite color here] people" your social credit monitors would be alerted, you'd immediately lose your job, and you'd be lucky to find work as a janitor.
0/10 "green energy" shill. Fracking gave us dirt cheap natgas, which is damn cleaner than coal AND why your electricity prices havent gone up in the last decade. Educate yourself.
Found it via 4chan. Comments section get get a bit /pol/ but I think it adds a refreshing reminder of what the internet used to be like before we started posting our names and mugshots. http://spidr.today/
Change the word "plan" with "dream" and the article looks a lot less like a one-sided editorial.
Articles like this start off from the angle of "we should do this" and in my opinion that's a BS way to frame a news story. Fossil fuels, especially natgas, serve a very specific function and the idea of putting the US at a disadvantage just so we can pat ourselves on the back as the rest of the world beats us in energy is ludicrous.
They didn't specify what kind of information in the header. So you could either assume ALL information is like junkfood and drugs, or you could assume people are filling up on information and becoming more intelligent (which I assume NO ONE assumed) or make any number of assumptions.
“And just as our brains like empty calories from junk food, they can overvalue information that makes us feel good but may not be useful—what some may call idle curiosity.”
THAT is the point of the article. Crap information is addictive.
I wonder how William Gibson feels about coining "cyberspace" only to live in a world where "cyber" has been reduced to chat room banter and low-brow humor.
