that’s the only way a lot of us can cope with the fact our planet is dying and nobody is doing anything about it. Not going to live my days in despair, might as well laugh at my own misery
oh yeah let me overthrow the government to finally put restrictions on the corporations that dump all their waste into the oceans real quick
i as an individual have such minuscule control over the situation it’s statistically negligible
and those who actually try are ignored, to the point their activism doesn’t even get media coverage, environmental activism was loud for a few years and now they’ve been pushed back to obscurity because people got bored of hearing the same old song and dance every other week
the world is dying and there is nothing i can do, so i’m going to laugh at it until we all go down in the climate wars or until (by some miracle) someone with the power to improve the world stops having wet dreams about next quarterly profit reports and has a long think about the world they’re leaving for their children
Yeah, you’re one of the problematic ones I was talking about all right.
I’m not the one you’re gonna have to answer to. Your children are, and if that’s the way you’re going to talk to them about it then you’ll deserve every moment you will suffer in a nursing home.
sure because i’m personally to blamed for what the mega corps are doing. i’m the chosen one who refused to stop them. and also this particular personal coping mechanism is my only characteristic or defining trait lmao.
Besides, even if i get to achieve financial stability i’m not bringing children into this world, not for them to suffer the consequences of what their grandfathers are doing for the sake of profit right now. And god imagine getting to retire, i’ll be lucky to land in a nursing home and not work until i die.
go ahead mate, fight the world that’s trying to crush your spirit. i sure tried, and got my spirit crushed. best i can do is laugh about it
Yep, keep talking. Keep sticking your fingers in your ear and screaming la la la as if that will absolve you from anything. Keep pretending you can stick your head in the sabd and avoid the very real culpability you have in this mess that we all do. I’m sure that will quell the guilt you have that made you waste time responding to me several days later.
what guilt? over what exactly? you think you’re talking to me from some higher intellectual standpoint but your only responses are ad hominem and trying to guilt trip me. guilt trip me over a vague “this mess that we all do” as well.
you present no arguments, give no alternatives, show no solutions. just insults to my character and no actual points.
i didn’t respond out of some guilt you seem to be imagining i have, i responded to have a conversation about the subject, instead you have attacked me personally without even explaining your standpoint as to why you think i’m such a “problematic” person.
you know i came here looking to talk about something we didn’t agree on with mutual respect, but judging by the fact you’ve made no arguments & just keep insulting me - yeah turns out my time has been indeed wasted, disappointing.
pro tip for the futre - don’t try to psychoanalyse people online, you don’t know shit about them
The guilt drips from you like the hydrogenated vegetable oil that leaks from your sweat pores.
And you’re angry, so angry that you are being reminded of your cowardice and inaction and being held accountable for it, and it makes you feel uncomfortable, so you lash out. Like you worthless knuckledraggers always do.
Get over it, spanky. Your refusal to take responsibility for the decline of your country means YOU and only YOU are responsible for the impending fascism that will kill millions of your countrymen, including your loved ones. Your refusal to take responsibility means YOU and only YOU are responsible for the destruction of the planet from climate collapse. And YOU and only YOU are the one who’s going to suffer from your anger. I am not going to be affected in the slightest by your anger or your outbursts or your temper tantrums. You can’t affect me that way. Anger is a poison you swallow hoping to kill your enemy, and you chugged that shit.
… then let me ask you a question, since you seem to have figured out my entire psychological profile as well as my biography from this conversation alone.
what country was i born in?
you really don’t have any arguments do you? just insults based on nothing, that miss the mark completely. this started as a conversation about dark humour being used as a coping mechanism for the misery we’re faced with daily. if you’re so hasty to try to insult me basing purely on your assumption of who i am, maybe take a hard look in the mirror and ask yourself if you yourself aren’t the person you just so angry at.
as much as i’d like to block your absurd attempts at trying to own whatever version of me you’ve dreamed up in your bright little head, let me indulge in the satisfaction of telling you that:
i am actively doing my part, as much as i can, in protecting the environment. Taking the bus or even biking whenever i can, always using metal straws, opting for recycled paper products when i get the choice to, indeed turning off the lights whenever i leave the room, loading up the washing machine fully to not waste water, making monthly donations to my environment conserving charity of choice, to name a few. i am doing the best my financial situation allows me to contribute to slowing down of our planet’s decline. And yet, despite the fact i’ve been conscious of those issues for a long time - the world keeps getting worse. There is no reason for me to feel guilty in a situation where despite my best efforts - i am powerless to change anything.
fascism? i thought we were talking about the environment? lmao. you did get that right, but seeing as a considerable amount of countries are going down that trend i won’t attribute it to clairvoyance. I vote every time i can, attend progressive protests, i’m an outspoken socialist in my circles, and actively debate with those around me to show them how logical fallacies and manipulation from the current government’s propaganda is affecting their worldview.
to add to that, despite my negative outlook on the future of the world - i am one of the least angry people i’ve ever met, i prefer respectful debate to whatever the hell you’re trying to perform, and have not lashed out, believe me you have not seen me lash out, quite frankly i don’t remember the last time i did. If you read my words in an angry tone that’s entirely on you. Spare for the “bright little head”, which i couldn’t resist given your numerous baseless assumptions about me, i have not insulted you in this entire conversation, now look at what you’ve written and tell me who’s the angry one.
anyhoot, you’ve wasted my time, and disappointed me quite enough. i’ll take my leave, have fun poorly psycho-analysing and insulting strangers whilst you refuse to make any actual arguments, cheers
that’s the only way a lot of us can cope with the fact our planet is dying and nobody is doing anything about it. Not going to live my days in despair, might as well laugh at my own misery
Or you could try actually doing something about it.
oh yeah let me overthrow the government to finally put restrictions on the corporations that dump all their waste into the oceans real quick
