#climatecrisis

Up until five minutes ago, I was a subscriber to The Guardian.

Then I read this:

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/article/2024/jul/21/yes-five-years-in-jail-is-too-harsh-but-the-just-stop-oil-five-shouldnt-have-done-it

Here's what I wrote:

We have already passed the point of no return with the climate. At this point it seems inescapable that we will devastate our biosphere, drive a million species to extinction, and wipe out great chunks of humanity.

And this - this! - is what you choose to publish.

It is intolerable. It is unconscionable. It is obscene.

Yes, five years in jail is too harsh, but the Just Stop Oil Five shouldn’t have done it

The urgent needs of the road users they held up were ignored during this climate crusade

@TomSwirly protests are bad unless they don't bother anybody, the only good protest is a bunch of people in a room where no one else can see them, right? /sarcasm
