  • Pronouns bad!

  • You're getting downvoted because you're more disgusted by people talking about the problem than you are by the problem.

    Denying eugenics would be disgusting,

    Covering for those that support eugenics would be disgusting,

    Being disgusted by someone pointing out the disgusting hypocrisy of eugenics and modern conservatism is disgusting.

    Pointing out how monstrous and hypocritical modern conservatives and eugenicists are is a moral good.

  • You've done nothing but vaguely gesture at the concept of hard work, Brokovich and Silkwood. You'll have to forgive me if you've forced me to draw a point out of your vagueries - feel free to articulate one though.

  • We can expect capital to rally behind the idea that profits are for the vitally important shareholders, not the lazy do nothing workers that do all the work.

    We can also expect a huge number of people to be brainwashed and stupid enough to belive that narrative.

  • Modern conservatism is mental illness - it's not a case of being dense - it's a case of being genuinely disabled.

    Ironic for a political ideology grounded in and returning to eugenics.

  • You understand what a hilariously stupid position it is to insist that any action is invalid if it doesn't follow the actions of these two specific people, and that anyone that doesn't know Erin Brokovich didn't pass the bar before starting her action has an invalid opinion, don't you. I shouldn't need to point this out, nor should I need to point out the importance of diversity of tactics, but here I am.

  • Yes - people protesting the climate apocalypse are the same as the oil barons, and I'm the moron.

    ...what hard work?

  • So there's never been proportionate reporting on the issue.

    Yet here we all are - talking about the protest and the apocalypse.

    As we know, these protests prompt substantially more visibility and discussion than direct action.

  • So we rely on isolated groups quietly engaged in direct action at a scale we know for a fact is inadequate to solve the problem while calling for the arrest of people protesting the apocalypse in a manner that can be cleaned up in five minutes?

    What's your solution?

  • People throwing soup to protest climate change are doing more environmental damage than people burning fossil fuels in the dirtiest way possible because that's their gender identity or whateverthefuck? You'll need to explain that one for me, champ.

  • When has there ever been reporting on the subject proportionate to the threat of the literal apocalypse?

  • The idiots aren't the ones throwing the soup - the idiots are the ones more concerned about jailing people for a mess that can be cleaned up with windex, a rag, and 5 minutes rather than jailing the people keeping us all on course for the literal apocalypse.

  • I don't think that's true at all, but if it is, it becomes a question of whether that damage is outweighed by the benefit of the action.

  • Nah - let's just feel superior by whining about people doing something to defer the apocalypse - both stunts to draw attention, and shutting down oil pipelines directly.
