I felt sorry for this guy tbh. He got a right running over by self-styled internet hard men, all of them presumed 23-stoners who struggle to walk to the dole office, for his perceived lack of masculinity. He got told he was a disgrace to the men who fought the much lesser existential threat of WWI by a bunch of internet trolls born in 1985.
I thought: he is right to be frightened for his children’s future, and credit to him for protesting the authorities’ failure to do a damned thing about the threat.
100% renewable by the year after next, pls. Get going.
WW1 may be a lesser existential threat than climate change in the long run but not within the lifetime of his kids. They will be absolutely fine. There is no existential threat to middle class kids in the UK over the next 80 years.
There was no actual threat to the UK from WWI either, we just decided to wade into the death-slough of Flanders and Gallipoli because we were jealous the Kaiser night end up with more colonies than us.
Ban all fossil fuel energy with effect from the end of next month. Build the Severn tidal barrage immediately pls. Oh but the seabirds the seabirds. These seabirds, do they like breathing air?
The government made that call. Once conscription got going, a middle class kid who got his papers didn't really have much choice. It was very much an existential threat for them on a personal level.
"do not talk absolute nonsense that contravenes the consensus of scientists who actually know stuff"
I am not sure that I have said anything that contravenes the scientific consensus. Some areas of the world will suffer within that timespan but not northern Europe. Global sea level is projected to rise between 0.3 and 1 meter by 2100. Not enough to pose an existential threat in this country. There might be more frequent strong storms or slightly hotter heat waves but the UK will not be a Mad Max wasteland in the next 80 years.
1) German military wanted to destroy Russian military before the French finished its upgrading by 1917. They succeeded in this
2) Germans wanted the Ukraine for its wheat and the Caucasus for its oil. They succeeded in this when Lenin handed these to them in 1917
Sadly the Brits its Empire and the French kept fighting
Without this sacrifice, the Brits and ultimately the US would have had to face down a military dictatorship colossus. The Kaiser had already been side lined by Hindenburg and Ludendorff
WHY DOESN’T HE SUPPORT SOMETHING OF REAL VALUE TO HIS CHILDREN: GET BREXIT DONE AND UNBURDEN THEM FROM FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT. NOW THAT’S A LEGACY TO BE PROUD OF!!
Bernstein you will take the alt-right nationalist bedwetter incel line on anythign m7. There's no point discussing anything in political history with you.

I have no strong feelings either way, other than his kids will probably be praying for armageddon by the third year of secondary school.

It's depressing that people might actually believe this

WWI was a joke. The all-time justification for noninterventionism and isolationism. Huge mistake by Wilson to get the US involved.

Never heard it called that before. Although tbf possibly funnier than some of Mutters' efforts.
