    Cruises oughta be banned for how polluting they are. Rich folks can have em back when theyve cleaned up their climate mess.

      No they may not. We acknowledge they’re filthy, rife with noro and other viruses, and aside from other pollution, dump raw sewage into open water.

      when theyve cleaned up their climate mess.

      Ah, a doe eyed optimist, I see.

      This oligarch party ain’t stopping until everything that can burn does. At this point hope is irrational, a side effect of rational despair.

      No one tells the wealth class anything. They tell us, and we obey like good lil capital generating livestock.

      Apart from the areas others have mentioned they are also absolutely terrible for the local environment due to the number of tourists they drop on an area. We should ban them for that alone

      Rich folks

      Cruises are often cheaper than just going on vacation.

      My honeymoon cruise was less expensive than if we’d just flown to the Caribbean and stayed at an all-inclusive hotel.
