[โ€“] secretlyaddictedtolinux@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

the whole "the climate crisis isn't the fault of people" is an excuse for the religious and rich and stupid to continue with business as usual until the environment collapses and we are all dead

reasoning with them is like trying to de-program a cult member (the religious), get a drug addict to give up drugs (the rich and their avarice), or teach a windows user to learn linux (the stupid and learning new things that make sense)

the intelligent people need to stop trying to reason with these three tar pit groups and force them to adhere to our will

but the reality is that this should have happened 50 to 100 years ago and it's probably too late. we're sort of of at the "is it better to be in the blast zne or slightly outside the blast zne" phase of environmental collapse. the problem is mostly religion, which has doomed us.
