My best answer is to get diagnosed and treated for an anxiety disorder because these are not things that have ever popped into my head
It’s estimated that about 50-75% of people don’t have an internal monologue at all.
No it’s definitely the latter
2·20 days agoI’m just letting you know the most good faith interpretation of this post, in case you missed it. I’m not interested in arguing about “common parlance”
It’s amazing how much it takes for some to reach the conclusion that systemic change is both necessary and requires… systemic change. As in systems changing. As in greater change than your individual decision to ride an EV or ICEV or public transit. Change that would make it exponentially more intuitive for you to choose the most sustainable one of those options.
Especially if mass transit is not feasible for you, this post is not to shame you or call on you to try and do it anyways. It’s a recognition that riding mass transit is not feasible or intuitive for most people, and a call to make mass transit available to more people rather than investing all that time and energy into the wild goose chase of EV adoption.
The crying indian really did a number on us.
That’s the problem they’re pointing out.
They aren’t doing that, you are. The apples to apples comparison that they are making is our current transit system; with the cars being fully electrified but otherwise as it exists today; versus a transit system that prioritizes mass transit (and walking and biking) over personal vehicles.
Electric cars are a solution to save the auto industry, not the climate.
Yeah idk how they even measure that sort of thing and I’m skeptical as well, that’s just the numbers floating around. I wonder too if it’s tied to literacy in any way.
Though I suppose there are different ways for brains to work than just verbally. Some people’s brains turn sounds into colors (perfect pitch), some brains don’t have visual memory (aphantasia), and others supposedly have photographic memory. So who knows how this all actually shakes out.
