It was just the Republicans who had a problem with it. Seemed like Biden was doing fine, so why complain? Haven’t you heard of this concept of giving someone a “taste of their own medicine?”
200% justified lol

People who downvoted this are retarded. I’m just explaining the reasons for the lawsuits, which are being carried out by hundreds of professionals who have been working in industry and government for decades. Sorry if the truth is too tough for you to accept.
I want to reply to this, but people who type words in all caps are just too annoying and emotional to bother. It never fails that they just get pissed off and even more entrenched in their opinions lmao
And as always, it’s more complicated than the headline. Governments and oil companies are suing over this because EPA has instituted new rules that will require many oil companies to use calculation methods that will vastly over estimate their emissions, even though there is legitimate proof that their -actual- real-world emissions are lower than the emissions factors that have been written into law.
There is a fee associated with these emissions estimations, and it will be in the millions for many companies, while their actual emissions, should they have been allowed to base their estimate on real-world data, could have resulted in no fees at all.
The emissions factors were poorly designed because EPA has tried to push this through in record time in case the next administration aims to shut it down entirely. Had the regs been implemented better, it could have been really great–but our discontinuity of government is not great in every way, and this is just the latest example.
He traveled out of state, with a gun, looking for trouble. And killed two people. He’s a murderer as far as I’m concerned, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up killing again. He’s so proud of having shot those people that he’s literally going around the country and speaking about it lol.
You know you’ve won a discussion when the other person has resorted to calling you stupid, because they can’t think of anything worhwhile to say. That’s the best indicator that you’ve lost.
I love it.
Lmao. So, you’re saying that conservatives are onboard with the whole BLM/minority rights thing, and that people are getting their message across no biggie? Grow up.
Do you want a peer reviewed paper proving that conservatives don’t agree with non-conservatives? Hilarious.
Truth isn’t determined by popular vote. Just because nobody likes it, doesn’t mean it isn’t true or that it isn’t valid. They may also be downvoting because they don’t like my tone, and not because I’m wrong. Besides, this is all just stupid infighting–OP’s tonedeafness is shared by a broad group of left-leaning people and is splayed across the news media.
When it comes to convincing right-leaning people, their sentiment is doing legitimate harm to our movement. And at the end of the day, if people refuse to acknowledge my message because of my tone, they’re the ones suffering. Conservatives really experience no downside by ignoring us, because they are happy to be classless, bigoted fools. So basically: suck it up and accept it, or continue to be ignored. Whatever.
This happens every time I throw out an opinion that’s even slightly controversial on Lemmy. Eventually, people realize they’re wrong and they can’t give me an actual counter point. So they resort to basically what’s happening now, which is derailing the conversation by refusing to elaborate when I ask in good faith what they mean. This time, it’s some apparent irony that they won’t explain, probably because it doesn’t even exist. Maybe the person doesn’t respond because they are afraid I’ll just dismantle their point again.
I mean, I can go back and reread all of messages from the mass of dissenters and try to to rationalize whatever “irony” it is they’re talking about, but irony is subjective. And now were left with this permanent internet monument where nobody was able to actually throw out any counter arguments with real substance to them. So I guess I win?
Also, who are the people that they think are “pushing gender reassignment” on children? I’ve never seen it, but I would guess that would fall under child abuse if it were indeed happening. Child abuse is already illegal, so what’s going on these last couple years? Wouldn’t the team of doctors and presumably at least one psychologist visit catch on to something funny happening after meeting with someone who is being forced into a gender change?
They absolutely would, and the whole forced transgender thing is “fake news” as they call it. I’d guess maybe it happened once, and the Conservatives latched on to it as the next hot topic to piss their cult off with. And here we are.
People deserve the right to live their lives as they feel appropriate, and doubly so when it’s not hurting anybody else. Wish they’d just leave my transgender homies alone.
You don’t know, do you? You made the comment, so you back it up.
And which irony is that?
“I’m not going to work to improve my skills or my arguments, and will instead continue to fail”. Whatever you want to do, lol
Because I’m already on your side, and you’re still annoying. Good luck convincing anyone who actually disagrees with you, which is the only thing that matters.
Tone policing! Hahaha. That’s a hilarious concept. Fuck your tone policing-policing, then, lmao.
Good job with the solidarity there, bud. The best way to rouse support is to be confrontational toward anyone who is trying to join in, lmao. Why should this guy care about your movement if you don’t care about his?
I don’t care what the second part of your message says, because I don’t care to read past the dumb capital words you put in for drama.
Edit: I’m just the messenger, lmao! You guys are neutering your own social movement with your lame attitudes. I’m just telling you about it.
I guess this is the '“find out” phase of the anti-vax movement?
If you can get around fine on a bicycle and mass transit, then you don’t live in a “car dependent” area by definition.
Agreed. Not everybody can or wants to own a home even with a 25k bonus. Some people want the freedom to move around and explore without being bound for any more than a monthly or yearly term.
The solution is to pump up availability and let the prices correct themselves. Bind pay CEO as a multiple of their employee wages, and address economic shenanigans like stock buybacks and tax loopholes so that people end up with a larger piece of the pie–that way people can do what they want instead of being forced into one option or another.
