Misinformation is the greatest threat we face: it allows the powerful to manipulate the gullible into doing their bidding.

Ellison’s goal is to turn Paramount into a MAGA-friendly environment, with content in the TV and movie divisions expected to be more “America-centric” and geared toward “the middle of the country.”
In other words, he bought Paramount to redpill the country, and make our culture more conservative.

An internal Exxon document from 1984 said: “We can either adapt our civilization to a warmer planet or avoid the problem by sharply curtailing the use of fossil fuels.”

The rise of UKIP mirrors deprivation within communities. Deprivation mirrors low educational attainment. Low educational attainment leads to a tendency to vote for right-wing ideology.

The problem with EVERYTHING is that organisations are allowed to do things “on the cheap”.
They closed branches and warehoused customer “services”. Then they cut the number of operatives. Then they employed cheap, unqualified staff. From prisons to utilities.
No wonder everyone’s p****d off.

A global survey of 10,000 people found climate worries impacted on daily functioning, like sleep and concentration, of 45% of respondents. In the UK, 73% felt the future is frightening, with 48% feeling dismissed or ignored when voicing concerns. Other surveys found similarly high rates of distress.
