Sandwiches cause global warming now

I'm not arguing against the Industrial revolution. I am arguing against our seeming inability to acknowledge that the Industrial revolution was fueled by raw materials stolen from the colonies and that perhaps, just perhaps, their own development was stymied as a result. The scars of colonialism, both in terms of riches and psychological impact are significant as I have seen firsthand.

I’m real confused about how the above paragraph isn’t clear to everyone.

LOL.. ok then.

If you don't think that the West is guilty of colonial exploitation and therefore has a moral obligation to make it right at least somewhat, I guess we are on completely different wavelengths and there is no common ground whatsoever.

They have a moral obligation to thank people for advancing them...it's obvious they wouldn't be at the level they are now...also...where do you actually think the world would be right now with out the industrial revolution? I love how you laugh as you feel you don't owe people who aren't as fortunate as you...yet you preach that modernized country's owe others...what a hypocrite

Are you serious?

The rape of Africa's mineral resources and the colonial practices of the West were fine because it was just Africa and Asia being weak?

Go back and look at the burden of colonialism and how the Industrial revolution was fueled. By raw materials literally robbed from Asia and Africa. These are the realities of how we got to where we are today. Not the only reason of course, but a major reason. We should acknowledge it, account for it and move forward.

So we are to be blamed because other people were too stupid to advance themselfs with the materials they had? Lmfao....if that's what you believe then we should all be 3rd world country's....

So in you mind ..you should be sharing any wealth you have with poor people because it's obvious..they have the same chance at education n job opportunity...but didn't do it...so your wrong for capitalizing on it....lmao

Rob them blind, get rich off their backs and then change the rules on them. Sounds like fair play to me.

No answer...nice...we ain't robbing people over climate change....well you boy Al Gore is....but my point is..same standard for everyone...pretty simple really stop making excuses for others while you blame the us for everything. You want us at a standard...but want excuses justified do no one else has to...that's a dam joke scrum

Your God gave us trump? A cheating, lying, gluttonous freak?

Seriously. I’m having a hard time figuring out how this guy won the hearts of the religious folk.

Confused at how his ideals match up to your Christian beliefs. They seem to be almost polar opposite.

He got a mulligan, Turbo! That's what one of the preachers said. Apparently, God is an avid golfer too.

The thing about Liberals is, all of their views are hypocritical.. Again praise God for giving us Trump. And ill promise there will never be another liberal president.... Hell another 8 yrs of Obama and we would be third world.

You do realize that all Paris accord targets are voluntary, right? The US isn't locked in to anything.

Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

What does that have to do with giving other countries a free pass for so long?... Nothing...just excuses to drain what then can out of us. And allowing them to pollute...it's not about saving the planet ...if it was they would be held to a standard now...not later

Nobody is ignoring it. China is installing more solar capacity in a month than we are in a year. We are the ones that are turning our backs on it, not China.

Good. Maybe the rest of the shitholes out there will to...but of course they get a pass for....how many years???? Lololo. So it must not really be that critical then
