Climate Change - increasingly horrible disasters loom
...............
there is so much out there about this - I don't really need to provide a lot of sources - a quick google
Have I ever written that I get kick from someone suffering ? Expressing contempt for a young person who is neurodivergent and doesn't have the common fear of speaking out angrily against injustice ?Greta is authentic and vulnerable. A child in a world where the elders don't have what it takes to protect her. There's nothing that screams lack of manhood louder than contempt for
Oh please a scared child she is just a tool of whatever cause she jumps on . As well she is no longer a child she is 22 years old. She was able to stage her protests as she comes from a very wealthy family.
Lol, I don't know what it is about conservatives losing their **** over Greta Thunberg but it's hilarious.
"She's a WEALTHY person and she's advocating for CLIMATE ACTIVISM?? **** THAT ****ING BITCH!!!!"
I like you too 72.
But it would be nice if you occasionally played a role which was not akin to devil's advocate or class clown.
If you would join in and say that it's not ok with you to derive pleasure from the fear and anger of little girls, I would appreciate it.
That's what this climate crap all boils down to. Adults not taking care of children.
Humanity has become an oxymoron. Humans have become inhumane.
It's not all that complicated.
1) Ban unnecessary and polluting consumption via global treaty.
2) Provide UBI for all necessities (food, shelter, medical and dental care, education, basic technology (internet/phone/computer) childcare, community resources)
3) Offer employment in fields relating to providing necessities and in environmental restoration.
It's a fundamentally different society than the present one which idealizes consumption regardless of the polluting consequences.

Lozen, you're a disgrace to any natural notion of masculinity. A sadist.
She was a 15 y/o kid with Aspbergers who sat by herself in front of the Swedish Parliament with a sign. Her wealth had nothing to do with her rise to public prominence. It was her resoluteness. She didn't stop showing up every Friday.
And the "cause" she has jumped on is anti-genocide. It's not something which non-sadists have a problem with.
You're a wonderful poster child for the brutality inherent in nature. I want to know what that feels like inside. To know that you have only one life to live and that life will be spent inside the body of a sadist.

Reminds me of an old Steve Martin routine in which he plays a slick pitchman. (I'm paraphrasing obviously)
You can be a millionaire and not pay taxes!
You heard me right, YOU can be a millionaire and not pay taxes!
I know you're thinking, 'that's crazy, how can I be a millionaire and not pay taxes.'
Well it's very simple my friend:
Step One: Get a million dollars!

It's post like this that remind me why in my opinion nobody should give a fig what you have to say about anything. To me you're just a self-righteous, self-important kook.
Literally anyone who disagrees with you causes you to jump on your high horse like a mad man.
When all is said and done, all you have are insults and your self-righeousness.
Make it a great day!
Do anyone give a damn about your neural associations?
How about you comment on the policy instead of revealing the idiosyncratic ways in which your mind relates to the world?
The question was about the policy prescription to climate change ..... not your neural mapping.

I have never claimed to have a solution to climate change. I'm not even sure there is a solution to climate change.
I know that you love the sound of your own voice and think your New World Order will solve the crisis. Maybe, maybe not.
Anyhoo, carry on the good fight, soldier!

I wouldn't know. Why don't you take a poll and find out, if that's something important for you to know about.
I'm not self-righteous. I subscribe to Einstein's view of determinism which implies that we all act according to nature which we don't choose. So that makes me a zombie.
I don't subscribe to notions of good and bad. I just have a strong and indistinguishable preference that life goes on. It pains me to observe adults who are indifferent to the suffering of young people. It makes me angry.
I am expressing my anger. That doesn't make me either good or bad. It's just my nature to do so.
I consider Greta to be a peer. She's angry too and she expresses her anger.
The example of historical anger which I find most relevant to climate negligence is the Nuremburg Trials.
That's a good example of where we're heading.
What will people like lozen offer in their defense at those future judgements?

You want to put lozen on trial? That’s lowkey funny.
War is a symptom of our tribal subdivision into competing tribes and inability to imagine global cooperation.
We are brainwashed into fearing other people and cultures in order to distract us from what we all have in common. The brainwashers are the people who enjoy the ego experience of being at the top of the food chain.
The first root cause is ego. The desire to find oneself more worthy than our fellow humans.
The second root cause is fear which causes us to retreat within the safety of our personal tribe in opposition to other tribes. Fear drives us to seek to control our destiny .... an inherently uncontrollable thing. Fear is the opposing quality to faith.
These root causes are part of our nature and the seeds for civilization demise which could take the species as a whole down.
A Nazi in 1940 might have reacted to the future Nuremburg Trials as "lowkey funny". That would have been a perfectly understandable defense mechanism.
Imagine being stuck between a rock and a hard place. Either cooperate in a genocide or risk being a victim of that genocide by declaring your opposition.
That's the real world. I don't find it particularly funny.
At the end of the day .... nature is the boss. Survival of the fittest is natural law.
Nature is going to execute the current prevailing attitude which permits the freedom to pollute.
Ultimately, it is the pollution which will kill us. But the attitude which enables that pollution will die.
Humans may survive the coming apocalypse, but that attitude will not.
Having a bit of a yap today, are we?
Idk what natural law means. Do you just mean the physical laws or is this some kind of deep metaphysical commitment that I don’t share?

Metaphysics are beyond my pay grade. A feature of my imagination which has some importance to me personally but something over which I claim zero authority.
