I would love a way to optionally post a location while choosing specificity, i.e. United Kingdom vs Newcastle etc. That way I can filter communities and posts to just those in a location I like.
I think it could lead to some really cool interactions and ways of looking for things.
I think this is somewhat strawmanning what the point of the argument in this specific case is. They're not appealing to nature being good, that's not the argument.
The point is that if you are genetically selecting for specific genes through modification then you are circumventing the typical process for genetic change. There are lots of unintended effects of genetic changes and there are lots of corrective mechanisms built into DNA when genetically modified through selective processes rather than direct gene splicing. Science is always slow to catch up with analysis of an entourage effect where many other small factors may influence results long term.
I'm not anti GMO and this isn't my opinion as I think GMO products have amazing potential. I'm just sick of people on my side totally misrepresenting this argument as "hurr durr nature good." It's such a smooth brained take.
Yeah I'm a huge fan of James but no one measures by weight really unless you're a nerd like us. So hence why I said if measured by volume specifically.
Yeah someone always comes out the Woodworks from Phoenix to tell everyone how they're babies. Once we start hitting more high wet bulb temps everyone's fucked.
I think some reservations can come out of the idea that the natural environment isn't producing these genetic changes. Just to play devil's advocate.
Edit: does nobody fucking know what devil's advocate means? This isn't my opinion christ. Also there's a bit more depth to the argument though that you guys seem to be really obtuse about.
Yeah you're right, it's one of those small complaints that's gonna always come from a small group of people. It's just media; people get so nuts about this site like everything should always cater to them...
Gets weaponised too I've seen people try to link this bullshit to "wokeism." As if that's the fucking problem with Hollywood.
Actually reading that article you linked it doesn't seem that debated and there isn't really any evidence of her being black.
