It’s certainly possible that AVs could reduce future crashes. But it’s not a given, and they definitely don’t offer the only (or optimal) way to do so.

Consider: Several European cities have gone a full year without any traffic deaths. None relied on robotaxis to do it.
Helsinki went a full year without a traffic death. How did they do it?
Nordic capitals keep showing how we can eliminate traffic fatalities.

The world dedicates a Poland-sized area of land to producing liquid biofuels such as bioethanol & biodiesel. Is there a more efficient way to generate energy?

Putting solar panels on the land used for biofuels, e.g., would produce enough electricity for all cars and trucks worldwide to go electric.

We are all beautiful.

If you are earlier in your journey, you will see that more as you give yourself time.

If you are further along than me, you are probably rolling your eyes at half the stuff i write.

That’s fine, we are going to win & i want the best for all my queer siblings.

Whatever mockery of international “law” existed - any belief in it is surely eviscerated by the actions of Israel and of USA and the appeasement , even encouragement of them, by so many in power

I do not believe in the death penalty for humans.

I do support the death penalty for corporations.

When they murder people, let's dissolve them. Break them up, destroy their technology, nationalize their assets.

I have never seen anything more impotent than the EU right now. The US just invaded a nation for its own financial benefit, murdered dozens, disappeared the de facto leader, claimed governance and the oil - and has openly said Greenland is next, and our leaders are here going "oh well yeah haha"

It's also important to understand how the US and its allies sell their actions to the world through media institutions.

While most can see through it at this point, media using "captured" over "kidnapped" is one small example.

Yet only 1 of 193 UN states considers Maduro a fugitive. The US ofc.

When the West speaks of democracy, international law and the rules based order, what they really mean is that they make the rules and everyone else has to follow the orders.

We saw it with Gaza and we are now seeing it again with Venezuela.

This is why anti-imperialism is important.

While the US has always acted with impunity, it's important to understand the complicity of its allies / client states in lending legitimacy to everything it does.

Even at a time when the US sanctions EU officials and threatens countries like Greenland.

The EU can do it for Russia, but not the US.
I have spoken with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and our Ambassador in Caracas. The EU is closely monitoring the situation in Venezuela.

The EU has repeatedly stated that Mr Maduro lacks legitimacy and has defended a peaceful transition. (1/2)

Das Auswärtige Amt erklärt, die Lage in Venezuela sei noch unübersichtlich. Ich helfe gerne bei der Aufklärung: Trump greift ein Land an & entführt dessen Präsident. Das ist ein völkerrechtswidriger Angriff & Staatsterror. Hier keine deutlichen Worte zu finden, ist an Heuchelei nicht zu überbieten.
