Big oil quietly walks back on climate pledges as global heat records tumble - Lemmy

capitalism can’t solve climate change :(
Nope, especially since it’s the biggest contributor to it.
What a vague and silly comment, half the world’s top contributors to greenhouse gasses aren’t even capitalist countries.

The US military is the single largest polluter organisation on the planet - do tell me how we can’t blame capitalism again?

And just for your information - that other gigantic capitalist country you falsely believe isn’t capitalist? Guess what? It’s capitalist.

China is the number one greenhouse gas contributor, Russia is near the top of the list as well. Fuckin tankies.

China is the number one

Sooo… a capitalist state?

Russia is near the top

Sooo… another capitalist state?

Fuck off tankies.

You don’t know what a tankie is, do you?

I knew it was a bad day when we allowed liberals access to that word.

Oh gross, you’re one of those
You walked blindly into this argument with absolutely zero understanding of the subject matter at hand, didn’t you?

Users are attributing climate change to “capitalism” with no evidence or reasoning to back it up. You’ve made assertions that countries that political experts don’t consider primarily capitalist countries are actually capitalist countries with no evidence to back them up. I don’t have to waste my time disproving your flaky nonsense, calling it out is good enough for me.

And what part of this conversation makes you feel like the intelligent subject matter expert here? The part where you said liberals shouldn’t use certain words? Keep it up bud, appreciate you helping me decide which communities to filter out here.

Lol! It’s aliens, right? Climate change is caused by aliens? Is that your angle here?

I don’t have to waste my time

I agree… you don’t have to flail blindly and ignorantly because you don’t have a clue what you are talking about. You can get a clue any time you feel like.

Yes of course, the only two super specific variables that exist, capitalism and aliens.

Would you waste your time talking to you?

Your claims are so ridiculous I wouldn’t be surprised if you were to start whining about aliens or the earth being flat.

Like I said… you don’t have to flail blindly and ignorantly. You can come back to reality any time you feel like.

Nice, got any more strawmans you wanna throw out there?
Your ignorance is either naive or contrived. I don’t care enough to investigate which one it is… I only care that your shitty take is understood for what it is. Aaaaand… that seems to be the case.
Think it’s funny that you’re losing your damn mind over there replying aggressively because you can’t leave a comment unreplied to, but I’m the one apparently “flailing” right?

Relax, right-winger… chill. Watch this cat parade.

Your politics is a dead-end street… but that’s not the end of the world - people overcome much worse every day.

Maybe you should… stop being so sensitive.

Now you’ve accused me of being a right winger and a liberal, so which is it?
Liberalism is a right-wing ideology.

Have one (very liberal capitalist) source presenting some evidence to how capitalism is to blame. Then have a write-up on how China has been the world leader in combating climate change. Happy?

Capitalism is killing the planet – it’s time to stop buying into our own destruction

Instead of focusing on ‘micro consumerist bollocks’ like ditching our plastic coffee cups, we must challenge the pursuit of wealth and level down, not up
