Your opinion is basically ‘I’m a selfish cunt’.

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

I mean, yeah, their attitude is shitty.

But at the same time, even their lavish, wasteful lifestyle is peanuts compared to the true perpetrators. This isn’t on us to solve. Because it’s not us that caused it. It’s the goddamn fossil fuel companies and every capitalist that sold out any part of the environment for profit. And then dropped tons of that wealth to create a culture war, casting doubt on whether or not fuckin climate change is real.

And these are the fruits of their labors. Not some middle class family who happens to be wasteful and selfish themselves.

Lavish, wasteful? I only live once, why should i waste it with working or doing nothing that could hurt the planet? Actually, by having no kids and ending my "legacy" with my death, I do more for the environment than you or every other downvoter. In the long run at least.

Yes, absolutely. I am. Just like you, but I admit it. You type this "insult" on a phone or computer, made to never rot or be recycled and built by slave-labour. So if you don't walk/bike to work, your workplace is 100% ethically pure and you don't own a car or use anything other than the cleanest energy at home: Yeah sure, hypocrite. Whatever makes you happy :)
