If you're wondering why you are separating the lids from yoghurt cups to recycle them properly, while in a parallel universe nearly 100 private jets arrive for the Bezos wedding, here's why:
Because you are better person than each and every one of these massive cunts.
@lerxst I think that I've read your toot wrong. So adding: agreed
I don't believe that they think that's truly the case, it's rhetoric to derail the conversation, nothing more than whataboutism and / or other logical fallacies, really. At this point we can rule out, with a relatively high degree of certainty, that Hanlon's Razor applies here ... @derthomas
@lerxst But sorting your trash is not a personal choice: it’s an environment policy.
@derthomas @rancoisse yep. they live in a fantasy land that protects their weak minds from ever thinking about consequences.
it doesnt protect them from the actual consequences themselves though.
only the passive, self-defeating mass apathy of their billions of victims does that. every billionaire and every sycophant could all be resolved in a day if we human beings simply stood up against the monsters who eat our very world alive.
Or, in the uk at the moment, the number of private helicopters currently flying around a supposedly “green and eco friendly” festival at Glastonbury. All weekend, wasting co2 because they want to be part of the culture for a few moments. Awful. And noise polluting for everyone under the flight paths.
@derthomas no, because I'm a dunce who likes to be hoodwinked into believing we can make a difference.
And we can, but *of course* we can, but I'm quite sure Bezos and his guests wouldn't like me to write down how.
The whole wedding has this vibe:
Alternatively, as has been largely the role of 'conservation' all along, are we simply reserving the Good Stuff for the privileged few? We use less now so they can grab more later. US Forestry serves logging 😔
A recent example, no longer practiced here, was Earth Hour. We turned off the lights and had a night time community party, the reduced consumption lowered hydro rates, immediately detected by automated manufacturing to take advantage of the reduced rate.
decades I've been doing all this shit...
I have realised that it has made absolutely fuck all difference except that I have paid more cash out for stuff, gone without stuff, missed opportunities, etc etc.
Then when you tell people the extent to which you have gone to try and make a difference, they think you are some holier than thou preachy prick 🤣
So while I'm not going to stop entirely or go crazy, I'm going to stop beating myself up and enjoy the last few years of my life!
E.g. next year when I have a little more cash,
I am going to get a car again!
Maybe a holiday abroad!
Oooh and a takeaway coffee in a disposable cup, just to see what it's like!
Fun times ahead!
As a non-Commonwealth person, I am perplexed as to why people over there use the word "cunt" as a pejorative. All cunts are beautiful. If it wasn't for your mothers' cunts, you wouldn't even be here. Just saying.
@derthomas Wait a second... They own huge yachts and think the best way to get to venice is by ... checks notes ... plane?
Fucktards absolutely!
I know from an environmeltal point of view yachts and planes are equally shit!. But at least they could show some style!

fuck them all can't wait for the planes to fall out of the sky like in Ministry For the Future
I don't think the residents of Venice are too happy about this wedding either, perfectly understandable.
