An then ten more years went by and no one gave a fuck and it’s all worse.

So stop larping as a lawyer on nostr and get real, bro

Was a decent book. Read it way back when, and it shaped my early views pretty hard at the time. I often cite the fact that crop circles were debunked by the dude who made them all as a gag, using just a 2x4 and some rope, but got almost no press coverage

I wasn't old enough to vote, but I found Ross Perot's arguments against NAFTA compelling. Sagan is essentially the same argument. I think about this when I see young people delivering groceries.

So true.. People can't "Grasp the issues.". Yet, they have a vote. Freedom can only be taken. We need to stop asking and just start doing. Just read a book on this very same battle that took place in the plains of Alberta! I highly recommend everyone read this!

Fun to see this. I have been facinated by Sagan and his call for scientic and media literacy since 1997. I share this from my 2002 thesis paper to extend your wonderful post: "...Carl Sagan even speaks of the darker side of science when he refers to the atrocious cruelties of Nazi doctors and of opportunistic scientists willing to create sources of corporate profit and weapons of mass destruction (1995, pp. 11). However, this is not to say that science did not affect morality because it does. Aldous Huxley’s comment provides an interesting insight to its affect: “Thus the city-dwelling factory worker may belong, biologically speaking to a more progressive group than does the peasant; but it does not follow that he will find it easier to be happy, good and creative. The peasant is confronted by one set of obstacles and handicaps; the industrial worker another set. Technological progress does not abolish obstacles; it merely changes their nature.” (Huxley, 1992) " - Auveki
