Graps, you missed the answer, obviously you weren't interested in following the off topic debate.

fyi, PVs and windmills etc (fueled by free sun and wind,  backed by storage, will be increasingly manufactured by renewaable energy, as the transition progresess.

poor lee doesn't have the IQ to understand that; I'm hoping you do....

A serious lefty?

Whereas your neandertahl "freedom or death" ideology - to avoid abiding by a regime of effective  internation law -  IS certainly far right.

Tragic, in fact.

All because we have been fighting one-another over access to resources since the beginning if time -  and still haven't woken up there are plenty of the vital resources to go arround.

Hence the confusion re various -isms,  in the remander of your post.

because that's where the massive populations are - geez graps did i have to tell you that?

But  now renewables, nuclear, and recycling,  can end pollution.

See how your mainstream 'scarcity' dogma, overseen by the crooked IMF,  is responsibles for those girls' deaths in Laos.  Another tragedy.

No.  Study crime and its causes, and then create functional communites.

So your idea was sh*t from the start; glad I didn't have to explain why.

You didn't catch the doubt in my post?

Now....back to youth crime, its causes, and also fixing the gap, without being diverted by "lowering the age of criminal responsibility".

You have plenty of my "waffle " to refute, in recent  pages of debate.

So you don't even have a link. You don't know anything about reliable power supply. But you have dreams.

OK NET Zero is not Zero and there is NOTHING in the article talking about renewables being able to make PV's or wind Turbines including blades.

Once again reading the headlines rather than what it actually says.

If I, as an English-as-a-first-language speaker can claim that I came up with the definition (but not the word) to "woke" in 1993, as a teenager, then I don't see how it is "shyte".

There is no possible way for me to prove to you that I was the person in the world of 6 billion (at the time) to define the word that a cleaning lady at my high school mentioned.

I mean, I have co-workers that were not born during my teenage years. Yet, they have this idea that I have no concept of heavy metal or dubstep or rapcore music. One of them had this CD of my garage band. How do you explain to a 17 y.o. that the clean-shaven guy that weighed 75kg was me when I was 19? He went enraged that the album was brand new. I had to point out that the album was remastered for better sound quality for modern sound systems. I had to borrow a bass guitar to prove to him that I was on bass. It took a few goes, but I had the riff of the opening song near perfected.

But, I guess you don't believe that I could be part of a garage band, either.

Give it a moment's pause to think about the implication of what I said. An indigenous lady who works as a cleaner at my former high school mentions to her niece about how her (the cleaning lady's) husband was "woke" that morning. I found the word "woke" fascinating. I gave the word new meaning from being "awake" to "being aware of your own personal situation". Then it evolved to the meaning I gave it by the year 1993.

Had that lady not prompted me to debate among friends about the possible code word we could use among ourselves in our second year of high school, we would not be using "woke" in our dialogues online. 1992 was a testing year for a bunch of new teenagers.

If indigenous people cannot be credited with having some attributes in developing modern society, we might as well keep the age of criminal responsibility high for them. I am just sick of seeing people degrading indigenous people just because some pricks think that they are above the law.

Do I have to?

I'll go with 'woke' (as per wikipedia) -  meaning aware of (awake to) socio -economic  realities,  especially as perceived by  blacks, as a result of  their history of exclusion and oppression by the ruling class.

MLK expressed it wonderfully (which is no doubt related to why he was assassinated; oppressors don't like being exposed).

now ....pretty please, can we get back to considering youth crime, its causes, and also fixing the gap, without being diverted by "lowering the age of criminal responsibility"?

Well yes, until they have learnt, or have been shown how to particpate in modern society, while not relying on (or being forced to rely on)  the disastrous poverty level-welfare 'safety net'.

Quote:


Fair enough....but are these 'pricks' white or black - I'm confused: eg, usually it's white people (I won't mention names..) who degrade/criticize blacks for lack of 'personal responsibility'; while blacks with a chip on their shoulder claim they are above the law - or rather, don't give a sh*t about the law.
