It’s not the same as a billion people it’s the same as a single person in the poorest billion over that persons entire life (assuming 75 years), so a billion times less than what the title says. That’s still gigantic though.

It’s important to be correct. Guillotine bezos anyway.

The same amount a single American emits in 5 years, on average. This is worded really deceptively.

I was a little confused by this but it’s not a billion people collectively, it’s as much as one person in this group of a billion people.

Yeah, one sixth of all carbon emissions over a 70 year period seemed a bit much for a single suborbital hop, no matter how crap his rocket is.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
