Social media is ranked worse right now than Oil&Gas and Weapons - what?
Based on the recent comments I've seen around here, selecting whether "Social Media" or "Private Prisons" are worse for society is somehow, inexplicably, a tough decision.
Many of the options here are also confusing. "Pharmaceuticals" as one of the options among other generally-considered bad things? Pharmaceuticals have saved millions of lives. Am I supposed to assume we're talking about the opiate crisis specifically or something?
Some of these tripped me up as well.
Oil & Gas are necessary for a country's survival. Good!
The Oil & Gas Industry operate political lobbying and climate change disinformation campaigns. Bad :(
So, which of the two should I consider in my rankings? Both? Neither?
Yea, the last 2 are good things, not bad things.
Different people have different views. I agree re: oil and gas (it could literally kill us all) but I don't mind responsible firearm ownership and obviously someone has to build the guns if you want to hunt, go do some target practice at the range, etc.
