Not clicking, not looking, this isn't even about you, this is bigger than you. Every individual needs to get a lot better about getting their head out of their own ass.

You wrote “people like you” referring to me. Consider this lesson one in becoming compelling: know your audience.

Yeah, people like you, who have all the power to say something supportive of those doing anything, no matter how feeble, and instead employ people's worse emotions against something you find annoying. I stand by it. I don't care who you are or what your ideals are, you made a choice here to push back on people who are trying to save our lives. If you don't like the methodology, fine. Who cares. All you do by ranting about it is give ammunition to those who would still deny there is even a problem, as we all slowly boil to death.

At least the rocks will be clean, right?

This comment is beautiful. It manages to admonish another for a concept it in of itself can not grasp.

Fair point. Maybe the knowledge will sneak its way in. Lol
