🤬 #Exxon files lawsuit against investors' climate proposal

“This is the first time Exxon is seeking to exclude a shareholder proposal by filing a complaint in court. It says the investors are "driven by an extreme agenda" and that adopting stricter emission goals would be detrimental to its business and share value” #BigOil #ClimateCrisis

@GottaLaff is this where we see the root of the bias in MSM

@GottaLaff

Sure, we're killing you all, but...profits...

@cindyweinstein

@GottaLaff ...shared 'values' - I think they also chuckle when they use such words. Laughing at us serfs.

@GottaLaff

Translation
Exxon: well make less money and we won't be able to charge enough to make up for it.

Greedy bastards.

@GottaLaff

I'm pretty sure it's totally legal to be driven by an extreme agenda.

@jztusk @GottaLaff

I mean, some corporations have been driven by shareholders with extreme agendas for decades now….

@GottaLaff
At least they will die rich....
Maybe sooner than they planned.

@GottaLaff

Exxon thinks not wanting to destroy our planet is an "extreme agenda"

@GottaLaff I would love to see the shareholders demanding that ceo to be fired..

@GottaLaff

When a fossil fuel corporation turns on its own shareholders and investors to thwart climate action...

Tail wagging the dog.

@GottaLaff

Doing everything they can to ensure all the cousins in the future have a place to live - specifically called "the Deez".

@GottaLaff I think we all know who the extremists really are

@GottaLaff
WoN'T sOmEBoDy ThiNk Of tHe ShaRe vALuE!?!

No, we won't. If y'all will just stop buying avocado toast, and members of Congress, you'll be fine.

@GottaLaff

Exxon are murderers.

They must be prosecuted, jailed and expropriated of every cent, every item that can be turned into money, to fund the loss&damage fund.

@GottaLaff I'm glad I haven't bought any Exxon gas in decades.
@ArtSmart I’m glad I’ve driven only EVs since 2015, and I don’t think I’ve ever bought Exxon
@GottaLaff I've driven plug-in hybrids for 10 years now, but I never buy Exxon gas. (Dated an Exxon lawyer briefly, and her loathsome behavior convinced me never to patronize her employer.)

@GottaLaff

Well, at least they're not pretending any more.

@GottaLaff

This should be sufficient cause for excluding Exxon from any and every ESG portfolio on the face of the planet.
