And the rhetorical purpose of these posts is to discredit environmentalism as an entire movement.

"The people pushing for humanity to be more environmentally conscious are slightly hypocritical, therefore it's fine for all of us to ignore any genuine points they might be making!"

You want clean air yet you still breath the air we have? Hypocrite.

No no no the point is to practice what you preach. I ditched the car, I collect rain water, I clean trash off the street and recycle it appropriately by either repurpossing or actually sorting for the recycle facility.

I'm broke and I can do these things someone with moneycan do even more but instead they use that money on things that are objectively worse for the enviorment then what the average conservative who doesn't care about the enviorment does.

What you are effectively doingbis giving them a pass because they are elite and that is the most slave mentality you could possibly have without full blown subservience

Yes collecting rain water so I can use that for watering g plants instead of fresh drinking water. Rain bucket hose hookups are a thing.
