They are both derogatory terms employed by the right to denigrate what is more broadly known as “all humans have equal rights”. PC is a more 90’s term, while Woke is the 2020’s equivalent
Aren’t they the main problem anyway? They’re gonna double down on telling individuals they’re killing the planet because they left a light on or didn’t sort mixed plastics for recycling.
All roads have a natural speed limit, which is a function of the road design, which in Toronto is usually mostly flat and die-straight. The speed limits chosen rarely reflect this, which is why speeding usually happens. I am also sure that extensive studies were done to identify where the cameras would be “most effective”, and so now they’re gone, of course the speeding has gone up. They grabbed enough cash that people learned to slow down and then speed up again and now that is no longer necessary.
The real problem in Toronto (where I lived until very recently) is the public transport system because there is no alternative to driving. It’s truly awful. New lines take 16+ years to build, and some are slower than pedestrians. The exiting ones are few and depend mainly on buses, which are slow and treated mostly as “just a big car”. Ford himself has also removed bike lanes, which were somewhat viable apart from the cars parked literally everywhere because the city was built for cars alone and not people. And good luck if you need to cross the city via highway. No matter the time, it’s crammed with cars barely moving.
Who here wasn’t waiting for this to happen? If the US is serious about this, it is going to need to consider a peace-keeping force to prevent this shit, and the inevitable “you shot first” finger-pointing bullshit that always seems to end with Israel going one step further
UN Peacekeepers, maybe?
Then again, I also doubt that would solve anything…
The only thing I seem to know for sure is that Israel has it’s armies in at least two sovereign nations. It’s hard to not see them as the aggressors, isn’t it?
I do know what punch-drunk means. And yes, this may need to be a discussion. The mark of a functioning society is that as new information comes in, we learn from it and change.
If that means we have to talk about banning (American) football and even (English) Football, sure. Before that there’s be a discussion about what changes could be made, which is why English football is talking about stopping players from “heading” the ball. It would change the game, sure, but it would also stop ex-players from early senility, which seems to happen too often.
Now apply that same logic to cage fighting… There’s not much left of it is there?
That’s quite the reductive assertion you have there… Why stop with your list? Aren’t all sports fundamentally a preparation for war?
Cage fighting feels different. In all the other sports, yes, violence does occur, but in cage fighting the violence is the product. I am sure it’s only a matter of time before Trump or some other rich fuck sits ringside and at the end of a bout points his thumb downward… The man wants to be Caesar, we get it.
it’s wrong on the WH lawn and it probably should be banned on medical grounds, too.
So, same rules as cars, motorcycles, /etc…? It’s a nice idea, but in practice it just takes a few people not paying enough attention to make this fail, no matter how many wheels they have.
You may need less, but you couldn’t remove them. What about pedestrians trying to cross these streets you want to blaze along? What about bicyclists who need to merge, or perhaps are not as fast as you?
I used to live in Toronto, and have seen more than a few collisions where bicyclists think the “Idaho stop” is fine. Cars aren’t great, especially in cities, but roadways are a shared resource and the rules need to reflect that

I'll wager he's also done sweet fuck all to save any human

We’re fucked
Are full head-scarves required next, or are they going to ban women from going out on their own first?
How scared of women are these people?

Shortly after, he’ll be announcing the start of his political career…
And with his face on it. And is renamed to the “I’m almost as brave as Trump” medal
Expect the next batch of medals to use Velcro

Waste and fraud… If only someone hadn’t started a war with Iran and then paid them $300B three months later to end it, gaining precisely nothing…

I’m not apathetic about this. It shouldn’t be happening on the White House lawn.
In fact, I don’t think Cage Fighting should be anywhere. I mean, it’s banned for animals, right?
They can have them. Always found boxing/mma/ufc/etc pretty pointless. It’s just the glorification of violence.
I’m assuming it will also be more bigly compared to the other US notes?

Excellent point. All i meant was I hope that this is applied more with regard to future industries.
I don’t understand why this statement is limited to just AI companies
Zack Snyder shouldn’t be let near a film set…
And I’m completely sick of reboots and remakes.
