Say the Americans who consume 3x the energy of other developed nations.

"Jeff bezos forced me to live in the desert and run AC 10 months of the year"

"Bill Gates made me drive my car to get groceries"

"Bring back plastic straws"

"Roll coal, baby!"

I like how the post is about the bus load of rich people that do the most polluting and we started blaming each other. Focus people. Our cars do pollute, but nowhere near as much as a these rich bastards.

Much more, in fact. I did the math a while ago and just plastic straws cover private jets for about a week. Moving half the US traffic from cars to public transport would do marvels for CO2 levels, more than outright banning private jets.

To be fair on those:

  • Most people can't afford to move so if you live in the desert then you're stuck in the desert even if the living cost would be lower somewhere else post initial moving cost, doubly so if its the only place near your job.
  • No the car lobby and US city design did.
  • No yeh fuck these people
  • Doubly fuck these people.

On one hand, yes, sure, fuck those people, 100%. On the other hand, remember that those people are encouraged and most likely exist only because of disinformation propaganda campaigns designed, promoted and delivered by the same bus load of people. So, you know, perspective.

Exactly. People love to pretend they aren't part of the problem as they keep their houses at 70 throughout 100° heat, roll car while driving their cars, and order boat loads of temu junk.
