    That’s because you only care about the status quo. Congrats, you’re part of the problem. Remember that if you’re ever confronted with rising flood waters with your boss saying you can’t leave. Just repeat “ I want this”

      How does missing work help the climate? Genuine question, but I’ve been fired when a car broke down over the weekend, and I couldn’t get another one before Monday. I don’t see how it was better that I wound up spending the money I was saving for an electric car on an old junker so I didn’t miss rent and get evicted.

      Edit: Just tell me you don’t have an answer instead of downvoting, this isn’t Reddit.

      I’d rather see disruptive action taken against gas stations, ICE car dealers, muffler shops, and other entities directly associated with the oil industry.

      When JSO stops asking lawmakers to make “jaywalking” a felony offense, and they eventually get around to actually “stopping oil”, let me know.

        They didn’t.

        You just didn’t like the translation of your words into their consequences.

        Most Nazi civilians weren’t evil in any special unique way. They just didn’t care about any moral framework more than they cared about not having the status quo broken.

        It’s an aspect of the banality of evil.

        Your attitude, sadly the most common attitude, is the main driving force for the most heinous of outcomes.

        Here it is being used to justify the literal end of the fucking human race and turning our planet into Venus.

          Yeah bro get people who support your cause fired from their jobs so you can not actually do anything whatsoever to help your cause because you’re not doing anything to affect the actual people who are causing environmental collapse, you’re just fucking with other working class people trying to survive.

          God forbid an ambulance or fire engine gets stuck there too. Or am I too much of a nazi for caring about solidarity?

          Go to DC and protest the capitol steps. Block entrances to fossil fuel corpo offices. Do something actually meaningful; but you won’t because you don’t actually give as much of a fuck as you pretend you do, so you pick the lazy option and shit on people who tell you why it’s bad and pointless.

        “I’m not being late for work “. The rest was to make that statement not what it was.
