How are you going to beat the vast majority of people into submission?

This isn't a "ruling class" issue. It's an "everyone" issue because we're all in on it.

If you didn't forego directly using fossil fuels, you're part of the problem.

If you don't want to acknowledge you're part of the problem, you're part of the problem.

I am probably part of the issue, even though I never drove and I stopped taking planes.

How are you going to beat the vast majority of people into submission?

Not with wishful thinking and techno-optimism, that's for sure.

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
