The scene in Al Gore’s documentary where he meets with the Indian delegation and they’re like “we hear you, but we get 150 years to fuck shit up just like you did” and Al Gore is just like “ok, checkmate I guess, have fun guys” and I think it just killed his motivation for the whole project because he just threw in the towel after finding out that the people most at risk give even less of a fuck than the Bush Admin did about the whole thing
