We’re not disagreeing then. I’m just saying some date lines aren’t in the right place in general, but what really matters most? What are our priorities? I don’t think most light and most dark is better, even if it were possible to get every time zone just right.
I feel like having a life, and kids being able to play for longer after school without it being dark throughout the summer is pretty awesome.
It’s that or have school and work finish earlier. I’m all for that, lol.
Time of day is a human invention. We can assign the date lines wherever we like.
Like Japan was nuts. Dark at 3pm in winter. Light at 3am in summer. They’d benefit by shifting that shit two hours forward for sure.
I’ll take 7 hour workdays in summer instead.
More daylight in summer rocks. It would be equally rocking in Winter. The clocks shoud stay forward.
Neither does passivism though. If everyone around you is losing your mind, you either give up your freedom and very possibly your life, or you fight.
The only reason no other great power has needed a fully prepared military is because of US leadership. That can’t be trusted now, so here we are.
What do you understand about the economic system? For example, how the money supply is created, and the ramifications of “interest” and “inflation”. What you’ll find if you do, is that the system is fundamentally broken if your goal is sustainability on this planet for any serious length of time.
Most of the current world order couldn’t care less, clearly or we’d have done things about climate change that weren’t just technical advancements buying us time if making any difference whatsoever.
Real austerity for the wealthy could pay for solving most of the world’s issues, several times over. And we have the resources to do it globally. It shouldn’t be a matter of “cost”.
But it’ll probably never happen, unfortunately.
