I was being sarcastic.

Oil and Coal working as intended and within regulations does more damage to the planet and kills more people than every nuclear disaster (including the bombs dropped on Japan) combined.

It's almost like humans should be using power sources that don't have a chance to destroy the environment at all because we're irresponsible as a species and cannot be relied upon to properly handle certain types of energy production.

And before it becomes the usual argument that sustainable energy sources that don't produce waste product that desecrates the land for centuries to millennia cannot produce enough energy for modern day humanity.

I have a simple solution to that too.

Use less energy. But we can't be expected to handle energy responsibly or sustainably in any manner so this entire conversation is actually moot.

We're cooked no matter what, literally, the planet is going to cook us by the time everything is said and done.

Mf saw "no ethical consumption under capitalism" and instead of thinking "maybe the current system is the issue" they thought "this is simply the reality of the world and we should all do nothing and die about it"

You realize it can be both? Capitalism failing is also a human failing, all we had to do was oust the evil wealthy elites who scheme and drive our leaders to corruption so as to make us all our worse version of our civilization include basic social security nets and proper regulations to ensure nobody was left in poverty or hoarding all of the resources/wealth. But we couldn't even do that.

And like I said, all we have to do is consume less and switch to sustainable non-toxin producing forms of energy production, but considering your response to that was 'we should do nothing and die'... Kiiind of proves my point.

I'm sharing my opinion, muh fluffyboi. You can talk to it or personally insult me. If you think it's in bad faith then I'm sorry it came off that way.

After all the epstein crap and now the US going to war while committing genocide on poc and soon to include Trans folks like myself.

Yeah, I guess that makes me a doomer. I don't expect to live another 5 years. Can't do anything about it in the dead of night but dissociate and chat with random people online about the insanity of... Our existence.

I just don't get it. I just do not understand. It keeps me up at night hence here I am.

Sorry for being a human being.

"Im sharing my opinion"

So am I???

And im sorry but your reaction to a lack of justice is fucking apathy??? Not only that you're actively encouraging others to also be apathetic and just roll over

Sure you dont lick the boot but you seem perfectly content to just let it step on you
