Is there a particular reason you think everyone, here specifically, believes those things?
Edit: I absolutely share your passion about climate change, as a preface. Calling someone, who agrees with you or not, “useless” makes them dismiss your opinion. It just means we can’t engage in any meaningful discussion and others are less likely to take action.
Hey, I hear you, life is stressful and there’s a lot going on. It’s okay to be upset, I hope whatever you’re going through gets easier.

Thank you for teaching me that I’m actually very judgemental. That’s important to know.
Funny how whataboutism makes your audience defensive.
Teenagers are 100% passionate, and they can be morally correct. That was never in question. I have an absolutely tremendous respect for what she has done and stands by. I’ve also personally seen and worked with kids who have had to “mature” early due to life circumstances or trauma. This doesn’t change my trust in children.
Adults can be immature, but children cannot be mature.
I don’t think the average person on lemmy, with a diagnosed learning disability or other challenges (autism in my case), represent the average opinion of 15 year old children.
Sure, but unfortunately many people don’t care about elections unless it directly and immediately impacts them. A war or a pandemic would absolutely and invariably rally more people to want change than adding little conveniences like mail ballots.
You truly believe there’s nothing else at play? Being in the midst of a pandemic in 2020 had no part in voter turnout?
It’s incredibly hard to search this information, probably due to the English queries.
The point about women and children being definitively civilians in an active war zone doesn’t detract from the civilian men, nor is it worth this discussion.
Israel in particular has mandatory military service for men, for 36 months.

This is just liberal hysterics! Trump is harmless.

Well being all hysterical won’t fix it.
Im sorry I just can’t follow your train of thought. Either it’s a real issue or it’s hysterics. And quoting the president elect is not hysterical.
A collection of puritanical profit driven individuals have control over all three branches of government. Last time this happened, I lost the right to healthcare due to my gender, as a small example.
People always call me hypocritical if I say “x” type of people shouldn’t be allowed to “y”. But I’m serious, will gladly give up “y” if I’m part of a problem.
I’m not understanding why you consider quoting the president elect "liberal hysterics ".
Yep! One house in our neighborhood always has their grill going in the driveway, giving out hotdogs, another has cider and mini bottles. Firepits and lounge chairs, it’s so nice.
But it means people are still capable of caring.
