shut up and ship it

I love the simple sourcing of requirements. Good job!

I want to tag on the remainder of my profile for you, since you conveniently skipped it in your hate speech.

>Live long and prosper.

I hold a genuine desire for strangers to live a fruitful life.

Please, consider revisiting the source of your anger and hate to a stranger and ask yourself "what is the effect I aim to have?" If you are aiming to hate as a cathartic release, I suggest writing a journal. If you are aiming to hate as a means of cruelty to a stranger online, do it anonymously without your real name attached to it.

I feel like that's a broad and general comparison. It would be equal to ask that of the UK during the height of their reach.

To do any real comparison you need to isolate something quantifiable. For example, languages. Latin influence is real and measurable. English is derivative from Germanic languages and was borrowed, and we didn't really export English...the UK did that. Why is Spanish one of the more commonly spoken Latin languages? The spanish crown was real good at that whole conquest thing, with the germs and the horses and the etc.

America? We influence geopolitics thats for sure.

This is a real example of what I was alluding to. Environmental impact isn't all polar ice caps and methane gas. An unprofessionally dug hole is a LIABILITY.

But personally attacking strangers on the internet is acceptable too.

Everything about this comment is a personal attack and sidesteps my real concern--the flagrant disregard for the environment just because someone can do it.

And Don I have to tell you, I am not a troll and I have to ask what crime did I commit expressing myself?

Was the post script necessary?

Maybe I get heated because this forum claims a standard is being held while I see bias persist

Maybe i believe it is important in a healthy democracy that the right conversations happen.

Maybe I hate bullies. You def. Are being a bully.

You disregard a real talking point on how little liability we hold people to disrupting land, and just attack me, AND YOU CLAIM YOU CAN BC YOU PERCEIVE ME AS A TROLL.

I stand by my profile description bc this is a diverse community.

I have a question for you, what is your purpose of your rant? To make me feel bad and you feel superior?

I am not trolling.

this is the same forum where people minimize their consumer garbage output to one bag a year and reduce aviation usage to reduce carbon footprint. I find it EXTREMELY condescending that you ridicule my opinion. Whats the scope for scales of environmental impact that matters?

Every single construction project in an area where an endangered species lives, the USAF must conduct an environmental impact study for said species from the project, even if its a toilet.

I am very much extremely reactionary, this is a news forum. People post news and react to it.

I want to know what the environmental impact on that hole...i mean where is the humor in destroying the planet just because we can?

That hole makes me unnervingly angry. And I can't be the only one.

Sounds like anticompetitive muscling out with a trivial and nondata supported claim for justification. If diets were a real concern of governments, there exists more appropriate policy measures, but passing laws that apply pressure on the free market with no effect on the bottomline of a city's budget is just easy so I can see why they are doing it.

Government doesn't measure ROI. It measure impact on policy goals. A government is not a business.

Circumstantial.

Go watch Zodiac to get an idea of how circumstantial evidence is insufficient

Context helps. It isn't a trivial datam. S/Google/Army/g the responses would vary wildly regarding the military industrial complex, impact of contributing to it, etc.
