This text implies that both sides are equally wrong, which is not true. This type of message only serves to make people feel better about doing too little while corporations keep fucking the environment without any control or oversight.

How do you get that?

Too late: fuck it we're all dead, burn petrol!

We'll be fine: we're good, Earth will be fine, burn petrol as you need.

Essentially saying it's 'too late' tends to make someone care less about the climate, which is actually worse in practice than straight up denial because of the behavior it encourages.
