Becoming. I.e. not babies yet. Just something that has the potential to be babies. Just like sperm has the potential to be babies. Should men be forced to convert all their potential into babies? Ofcourse not that would be ridiculous. Abortion of embroyos and foetus is really no different.

Babies are not aborted. Foetus and embryos are aborted. Do you not understand the difference?

Your point might be true but your conclusion is not. Just because Trump may not of been charged if he wasn't running for president doesn't mean he shouldn't be charged. There is only so much court space and only so much reporting of illegal behaviour. Trump, and many others, getting away with...

Only in name. He is mocked by the party now. Just like former leaders in mccain and romney and bush.

Wow. Im stunned that people would think this. Have you been reading the news in the past couple of years regarding ukraine and hong kong?

Nope. Note he is former not current. The republican party is basically a different party now. Its now full of authoritarian yes men.

But that's by choice because of shared values. You get this is a good thing right? People with shared values working together to protect and enhance those values.

We arent aligned. We support other countries actions by choice because of similar ideology and interests.

Just looked up what a middle power is: these are the regions that are currently defined as middle powers: Brazil, India, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and Turkey. They all flitter between democracy and authoritarianism (many now much closer to authoritarinism). In a world that is...

What is a middle power in asia? Sounds cool. But what is it? Article doesnt explain it. How are we not a middle power in Asia already?

This should be bigger news then what it is. putin was always going to do it. Just wanted to wait until the west largely forgot about Navalny. what has happened in russia in the past 10 years has been a civilisation level tragedy. and it could very easily happen in the west.

Genocide Joe?the future is Chinas. how is biden supporting israel any worse then Xi supporting Russia. And lets not even discuss what China has been doing to its own minorities.

The decentalized china of the 90s and 2000s is gone. Xi is now running it like a tin pot highly centralized dictatorship. He makes all the decisions and everyone just follows his orders. Anyone who questions him is out. End result. He surrounds himself with yes men who do nothing more then feed...

Privatisation of the generators wasnt what caused the blackouts. A lack of regulation and incentives to ensure there was sufficient excess capacity and incentives to generate was the problem. Its the government body co-ordinating the power systems whose responsbility it should be to ensure power...

If she was keen she has left her run far too late. as depressing as it is. Its biden vs trump in 2024.

Its not that simple. While privatisation and deregulation has definately caused massive problems when it has been poorly implemented, overregulation has caused other major problems as well. there also been times where public ownership and/or high regulation have resulted in ridiculously high...

Seems like Fox news has finally decided to run a story about trumps legal problems. They have been ignoring all the others.

Um does he not realise the republicans will only put foward one nominee for president? If trumps it then he cant be on it. this guy really is a trump plant whose sole intention was to split the anti trump republican block.

Trumps comments are horrfic. 2nd Time he has said this now. shocked this isnt getting bigger press.

why do you think uptake of EVS and solar resources will strip the world of resources? Lithium used in batteries is indeed limited but sand isnt. batteries will soon be made of sand. So I dont share your concern and in fact see it as unintentionally dangerous because its the same thing being said...

Havent changed my mind. Consumption and overpopulation have nothing to do with stabilising temperature rises. To stabilise temp rises net emissions need to fall to zero. Not 50 percent lower. But zero. Radical extreme population and consumption policies wont even halve emissions let alone bring...

So theyve agreed to transition away from fossil fuels rather then phase out fossil fuels. gotta love these international summits. I totally get the difference between the term "transition away" and "phase out". In either case its still empty rhetoric without an actual timeline. Think the...

Yes they need to start proposing plans to achieve their goals. outlining goals alone is not enough.

Nope not me. I said the worst case scenarios of 3.5 - 6 degree average temperature warming I used to model were no longer realistic because renewable generation and evs are guaranteed to replace base load power and ICES. Never said anything about keeping temp rises to under 2 degrees being...

Due to finish later today. Anychance we can get a global agreement to phase out fossil fuels? This COP process has finally revealed to the public that the fossil fuel companies have infiltrated the summits and made it a sham. Hopefully this revelation can finally lead to real change and kick...

What territory do those in the north claim is theirs but isnt? meddling in elections is not the same as wanting to invade and conquer anothers land and their resources. its highly likely the referundum results are largely made up anyway given venezuela is a dictatorship. Unless we start seeing...

While i think this is true most of the time i think its a bit too simplistic. would australia meet this instrument of destruction measure when it landed on gallipoli? how about the USA when it invaded nazi germany? The germans had not invaded the USA first. And if a government commits...

Yep BRICS was developed by Goldmann Sachs.

John Oliver put together a good balanced summary on the conflict last night. It's a weird world where the best take I've seen from the media on this is from a comedy show.

not true in the case of gun rights. nor true in the case of health policy. some shitty things in the US are uniquely US.
