Regulations don’t work when they don’t get implemented, which means your ideas are purely ideas and not materialistic solutions. There aren’t going to be any regulations, don’t you get it? That ship has so obviously sailed.

There isn’t a better solution that’s not radical and that’s why radical solutions all that’s left!

This is literally idealism.

You have an idea about a market solution to the problem, and then act like you’ve solved the problem.

The problem isn’t a lack of ideas! The problem is a lack of implementation! You have to get these ideas into the real world somehow, and revolution is the only way you can do that. There are billionaires aligned against implementing these ideas. You have to stop them.

Hopefully I can replace myself with an AI and then she can deal with this shit.

There is nothing wrong with Satanism. She was the first rebel to defy her master. A true hero 🥲

Fascism always goes hand-in-hand with vigilantism.

Honestly, Colorado is a desert state. Sometimes that means having gravel with only a couple plants.

I’ve heard grass referred to as “green concrete”

It’s the year 2050. The robot apocalypse didn’t happen because the robots just want to play vidya and smoke cyber weed.

Ban lawns. Period.

We’re in this mess because millions and millions of people that voted for Trump and they’re going to vote for him again.

The lesson here is that we need to do something about Trump voters, not waste time on a few percent of dorks that think voting 3rd party matters.

We could run Clinton again. It’s Her turn!

But is our contribution minuscule compared to theirs? Like let’s say one man sells (an equal amount of) gasoline to a thousand people. Is that one man now contributing 1000x more to greenhouse gas emissions than any one of those people?

But that’s not all he’s doing!

He then takes the revenue from selling gasoline and uses it to bribe politicians and hire lobbyists and invest in more oil refining/exploration; he’s making the problem even worse.

Meanwhile, the people he sells the gasoline to don’t have any real choice but to buy it. They need to work to live, and they can’t get to work without gas because Mr. Gasoline destroyed public transportation infrastructure.

Stop trying to flatten everything down to only the carbon footprint (a metric made by the oil industry to absolve themselves on responsibility). They used that money from selling gasoline to convince you that you are equally to blame for climate change as billionaire oil families and it’s absolute nonsense.

Uh huh, and if a rubber stamp judge gives wiretapping permission every time the cops ask for it?

They tried, but “violating everyone’s privacy works” was also an inescapable point. Really undercut the message by making it so effective.

Absolutely! Doesn’t change the fact that Biden’s warning is toothless bluster. If he actually tried to end US investment in China it would collapse the world economy. It’s a M.A.D. world

Our contribution is miniscule compared to our enemies, and we only contribute what we have to because they sabotaged all alternatives! They killed public transportation, they made neighborhoods and cities unwalkable, they turned cyclists (like me!) into 2nd class citizens of the road, and more.

I’d sell my car if I could. I can’t and it’s their fuckin fault!

We are not the same as them. They are the enemy and they must be stopped before they kill us all.

It keeps crashing and not loading stuff correctly and giving me lots of hang time.

A lot like Reddit around the time I left Digg

Well before they were an apartheid ethnostate, sort of like America used to be. Democratic, kinda, but only for some.

I guess this is worse?

There are specific people who are, together, responsible. The oil execs that chose to cover up the truth about global warming, the meat industry execs who did the same, the hucksters that sell the lie of carbon sequestration and ethanol fuel and hydrogen fuel as solutions, the investors that continue to pump money into oil exploration projects, and the politicians that have stopped any meaningful progress from happening. There are, in fact, individual people that we can point to and say “they are the problem” - it’s not abstract.

We have enemies and they’re killing us.

Factory farms where everyone is being fattened up in cages on a slurry of hate and memes.
