I'm the victim of it. I can't save the planet by not using electricity, by not drinking water, or by not going to the grocery store. The only viable hypothetical way of me saving our planet is becoming a mercenary which is, you know, GOD DAMN STUPID. I would GLADLY be more ecologically responsible if I could afford it AND if the opportunity was presented to be(because OBVIOUSLY that option is not always available even), and you know that prices for basic needs are NEVER EVER EVER regulated by consumers because the demand for these things never goes down no matter the price because ITS A BASIC NEED.
You also know that corporations are maximizing their efforts to get maximum profit, which means they neglect safety of their employees and THE ENTIRE PLANET. Oil ends up in the rivers, seas, oceans ALL THE GOD DAMN TIME. Are you trying to tell me that I'm to blame? Don't you realize that for me, by your logic, to not responsible for it I'd need to quite literally just kill myself? Are you telling me I should be thankful for it? You are batshit crazy
P.s. fyi the rich does burn the oil for fun, when they decide there's "too much of it". Don't remember the negative oil price a few years ago? There's not just one instance of it. You know what they don't do? Push themselves to be as ecological as possible. They're too busy experiencing record profits that are unproportional relative to yearly us dollar inflation.
Get. Lost.
Did a child write this?
"🤓" type of comment
By the way it's very interesting that you perceive a thought out, fact checked pre publication comment, as "something a child would write". You should think about your place in society for a bit LMAO
Lol it's so weird you described your comment that way.
Keep trying to gaslight bud
You do not understand what that word means lol
Try another way. This isn't working well. It's even more obvious now
This is so pathetic and embarrassing for you bruh
