You first point: that's not even close to being enslaved or forced to do whatever your government tells you to do under threat of imprisonment. Yes, it is very, very different.

Humans aren't really built for communism on a large scale either. We are tribal, capitalism gets around that with incentive and greedy individual reward for doing something that generates social improvement at scale (nation-state) level--trade, commerce, interaction, communication. Communism, Marxism will never provide that. You either have to use the carrot (capitalism) or the stick (despotism) at scale to get results. Communism (real communism) fails beyond a few hundred (may only tens) of souls, again we didn't evolve for that,

F150 is the best selling vehicle in the USA, you have to learn to walk before you run. It's a foot in the door. I think a lot of people of very high green bent don't realize you can't force people in a democracy to do things they don't want. If you go too fast then they will rebel and you get someone like Trump elected who will set it back 20 years.

it really doesn't, those would be nice to have but to get rid of the "where are we gonna store it" crowd for a while then this doesn't sound like a bad idea if it's even remotely economically feasible. I reckon after drilling a couple hundres of these bore holes we'd get pretty good at working out the kinks

we aren't going to meet "climate goals" anyway, lets opt for the sure thing. We should have done what France did, maybe even poached half their nuclear engineers.

Trillions on military, not even 100 billion for a manhattan style project to come up with a better fission design that would solve all of our energy problems as well as global warming. Until we have battery densities 10X-20X what we have now solar and wind will always be second tier power sources to traditional and nuclear

Do you propose the government shutting down all social media because you don't like them? What is your precise solution if not. Is this the job of the government, to limit speech that you don't like or don't like how it's presented?

I think they're saying "stop complaining, it's tit for tat, so don't cry anymore big companies that hold 90% of the power"
