Listing bullet points from the article is something I consider to be very low-effort. I posted two paragraphs. People can read further if they are inclined.

I’m not a bot, I assure you. i’m a human that’s been on this instance for over 3 years that you’ve chosen to insult. What about the post was lazy? The condescending tone isn’t appreciated.


Thank you everyone for reporting this, constructively discussing in comments and using downvotes appropriately to bring to our attention. After reviewing the account and reaching out to them to no avail, along with their lack of response to community members, we’ve decided it is likely a bot account and have followed many other community mods in banning them from this community. Thanks again all for helping keep discussions constructive here.


Thanks for flagging that.


Thanks for sharing your inside perspective!
Since you like Psycho, I’d recommend Peeping Tom by Michael Powell or several movies by Mario Bava from the era like The Girl Who Knew Too Much and Blood and Black Lace. Eyes Without a Face is also Great. Also Rosemary’s Baby and Repulsion by Polanski. For Japanese Films you should check out Yojimbo, Sword of Doom, and 2 by Seijun Suzuki ; Branded to Kill and Tokyo Drifter. Also check out Dr. Strangelove by Kubrick and if you like New Hollywood westerns , etc Bonnie and Clyde and The Wild Bunch are requisites. French New Wave stuff is important so maybe Breathless and Band of Outsiders and of course Melville’s “Le Samourai.” Spaghetti Westerns were very influential and Leone’s Man With No Name Trilogy ( A Fistful of Dollars, For a few Dollars More, The Good the Band and the Ugly ) and Once Upon A time in The West are a good starting point. There are so many but those are a few recommendations that might send you down further rabbit holes.


They’re revolting because it already has and they haven’t been given a voice https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/9/8/six-killed-in-nepal-amid-gen-z-protests-after-social-media-ban-all-to-know


Not at all. They’re demanding anti-corruption, jobs, healthcare, etc . Another article with some background
If the cat and the Raccoon that ran onto the field a while back joined a team, they would be unstoppable.


It’s a bit disappointing to have this constructive conversation with you and then see what contradictory things you had to say in another community indirectly but you’re certainly welcome to your opinions as is everyone else.


Did you have any feedback on the rest of the article ?


It’s a nitpick sure but a weird thing to state in the article.
I agree with both points in this sentence. I appreciate your feedback. The author cold have elaborated on that point more but it’s such a minor part of the article and I’m surprised to see people focusing only on that one line and some being outraged by it. That one line seems a bit negligible to the larger points presented in my opinion.


While there may be some truth in that it’s a pretty broad generalization and the article isn’t about blame it’s about the impact the bill will have.


The article has several links to sources which go into greater detail, each containing their own sources such as this which contains more design info you may find helpful.


From my understanding they are still spending money on fossil fuels like coal to some extent but they’re clearly in the process of transitioning towards green energy and you’re right that they’re surpassing us there, by far.
This Green Energy community is on a Solarpunk instance powered by solar power and a lot of Solarpunk fiction finds hope in dark times by imagining ways people respond to climate catastrophes with resilience, solidarity and community when our governments fail to provide solutions. The DIY and hopeful aspects of Solarpunk, whether real or fiction, seem especially prescient towards our current situation though that’s not denying what you just pointed out.


I definitely agree that people should move forward with solar / wind however they can, especially DIY projects. This will hurt people on on an industrial scale, though and will likely hurt many companies and jobs so it’s still important to be aware and prepared at the least.


It sounds to me like he was saying that wind power does that, which is incorrect, but coal is certainly destructive https://environmentamerica.org/center/articles/how-coal-mining-harms-the-environment/


Thanks for your insightful comments. Sums it up well and I appreciate that you ended on a hopeful, positive note. I agree with you and I think we’ll be seeing more mutual aid groups, DIY efforts and acts of solidarity as ordinary people come together despite the greed and hubris of those in power.


Thanks for the clarification
The article is attributed to Glanze Patrick and if you click their name you’ll see a list of other articles they’ve written. I think it’s meant to be written in a generic tone so I can see why you would ask. I assume the author is human but who knows if they used something. It can definitely be hard to tell these days. I certainly hope not.
